I hate him.

I can't believe I fell for his stupid act, I should have known he would hurt me like this.

I can't believe that I was stupid enough to believe that he was going to be different for me.

I stormed out of the cafeteria with Ashley following and trying to help. 

"Alex, please just listen to me! You know who Parker is, and it isn't a surprise that he hurt you. He hurts a lot of girls and takes advantage of them to get what he wants. But you deserve way better and he doesn't deserve you!"

I turned around and gave Ashley a hug, she always helps me when I'm upset.

With tears streaming down my face, I laugh a little. 

"Ashley, I'm so stupid because I thought that he wouldn't hurt me and that he wouldn't treat me like shit like he does with every other girl. But he's Parker Hood, he has a reputation for treating girls horribly so why would he treat me any different? Ugh, but I still have to tutor him after school, which sucks but I'm not going to let him take advantage of me."

Ashley grabs my hand and leads me back into the cafeteria, "You're one of the strongest girls I know and I promise that you'll get through this." I smile at her and we keep walking to the cafeteria.

I sit with all my friends and we begin talking and I start to forget about Parker, but then I feel a tap on my shoulder and I slowly turn around and see Parker with a smug smirk on his face and all his friends surrounding him.

"What do you want?" I spat. He seemed taken back but shook it off. 

"What's wrong babe? I thought we had a real connection," he started laughing and giving them all high fives, I rolled my eyes and started to ignore them again. 

"I guess I'll see you tonight at my place for tutoring." He winked before walking off.

I sighed loudly, trying to control myself from breaking down. Lunch was over and it was time to start heading to class.

Before I walked in I saw Parker kissing the same girl from before, he hugged her goodbye and he saw me looking at him with tears filling my eyes. I shook my head at him and walked into class.

Worst day ever.

During the last period, I asked my teacher if I could see Mr. Brown and of course she let me go.

I walked past all the teachers and knocked on Mr. Brown's door, I heard a loud 'Come In' and opened the door. As soon as I opened it, I sat down. 

"What brings you here Ms. Montgomery?" he asked, "M-Mr. Brown, how much longer will I have to do these tutoring sessions?" I asked, almost inaudible. 

"Oh Ms. Montgomery, I promise that as soon as his grades get to a B- or C level or you can stop the sessions but I'd have to look for someone else and you are one of the best students." I simply nodded and thanked him. 

But before I left the room he asked, "Is there any reason that you need to stop tutoring him?" I shook my head and started heading towards the door with my head down low.

I bumped into someone and I looked up and of course, it was Parker. I couldn't even look at him in the eye, so I just mumbled 'sorry' and hurried out the office and back to class.

I was walking out of school with Ashley when I heard someone calling out for me.

Can I ever get a break?!

Parker was running after me. 

"Alex aren't you coming to my place? The library is closed today." Oh yeah, I forgot about tutoring. 

"Oh yeah, I'll see you later Ash," I turned to her. 

"Yeah, call me when you're done," she walked off, giving Parker a dirty look before leaving. 

"What's her problem?" I just shrugged and started walking to his gorgeous car.

The car ride was filled with small talk and awkward silence. Just great.

Once we got to his house there was a car parked in the driveway. I heard him mumble curse words under his breath, we got out of the car and he quickly took my hand. I tried to pull away but he just held on tighter.

We tried to sneak into the house as quietly as possible but soon we heard a small voice say,

"Parkie is that you?" It was a little girl, she was super adorable. 

"Fuc- Luna can you just go play dolls or something?" He whisper- yelled at her, but soon we heard another voice. 

"Parker is that you?" I think it was his mother, Parker groaned loudly and I pulled my hand out of his.

"Mom we are just going upstairs for homework, goodbye." He said to her rudely. 

"That was extremely rude. I'm Alexandra but you can call me Alex, I'm Parker's tutor." His mother smiled at me and shook my hand. 

"Well I'm Anne and this is Luna." Luna gave me a shy smile and hid behind her mom, I bent down to talk to her. 

"Hi Luna, you know you have a really pretty name." She smiled and came close to me.

"How old are you?" I asked her poking her cheeks. 

"I'm four." She answered quietly, showing me with her fingers. 

"What! You're a big girl." She smiled and ran away.

I got up and of course, Parker interrupted the sweet moment. 

"Well we have to study, so cmon Alex," I glared at him and turned to his mother. 

"It was lovely meeting you," I smiled at her while being pulled up the stairs. 

"It was nice meeting you too!" She responded with a big smile.

When we got upstairs, I started pulling out the books to start the session because I really wanted this to be over.

"Alex, what was that?!" Parker was pissed off and I didn't do anything wrong. 

"It's called being polite, you should try it. And you know what, I should be asking you the same question," I fired back.

He grabbed my waist and pulled me closer.

"What's that supposed to mean?" I pushed him away.

"Hmm, let me think? The girl who you were making out with," I had to turn away from him to calm down.

"Parker, I know you don't give a shit about me and all the stuff we do is absolutely meaningless to you, but I thought you were different then what everyone else says about you. But I guess they were right all along. You are exactly who people say you are. And I'm done with having high expectations for you but yet you fail me," I couldn't go through with this session, I had to leave.

"Alex, please. I know you're mad but please don't go, I can explain just please don't go," His voice cracked a little, my eyes were starting to water and I slowly turned around and saw the tears brimming his eyes. I shook my head and left.
