My heart drops. "I have to go." I blurt out, quickly gathering my stuff and running out to the bathroom. She might have called out my name after me, but I was too mad to realise. She did this. She invited me in her house. She shouldn't have done this if she knew this was going to happen. I knew this was going to happen, as should she. There was obvious tension between us, she shouldn't have said anything to me if she knew she was going to regret it later on. I don't understand. 

I pull my hood over my head and dart into the bathroom. I close the stall door behind me and crouch down, and I begin to feel the tears fall. I cover my face with my hand, and I let out a muffled scream into my hand. I pull my phone out of my pocket and text Emily. "Meet me in the bathroom. Now. Emergency." It was just then I hear footsteps coming into the bathroom. I freeze, and squint my eyes to look through my tears to see who's shoes just walked into the room. I wince when I realise who's they are. "Elle?" 

 I feel my whole body tense and pretend like I'm not in there. "Elle, I know you're in here. You're wearing the same shoes you walked out of my apartment with this morning." Yeah. HER apartment. "What do you want." It was more of a statement rather than a question. She comes up in front of the stall that I was having my sob sesh in, and I can tell she's leaned against the stall door. "I just want to talk to you. That didn't come out how I wanted it to. Please just open the door. I'm sorry." I think in silence for a minute. "Then how did you want it to come out? 'Oh by the way I hate you and think you're stupid and I hated every second of it.'?" I hear a snort, but I can't imagine what she'd be laughing at. I just lost my virginity. To a teacher. And she turned it around and said it was a mistake. What could possibly be funny in that situation? She just broke my fucking heart. "Just open the door Elle, please. I'll explain everything." I scoff and roll my eyes. "Why? So you can watch my face while I crumble when you tell me I'm a horrible person?" I hear her head slam the stall door. "Elle, please. You literally have 3 minutes until the bell rings for your next class." I groan and slide the lock to the stall door, and slowly open up the stall door, revealing my pink and puffy face. I can see her face fill with pain, and for a minute I almost believe that it's real. "Oh baby" She says, as she pulls me into a hug. I don't hug her back though. I just stand there, limp, letting her hug me. "So what the fuck DID you mean then?" I ask, annoyed that I let myself get into this situation in the first place. She pulls me away from her, so she can look me in the eyes while she talks. I do not appreciate this. "I was going to say that I don't think that should've happened this morning because now I like you way more than I should. I don't think this morning should've happened because now I can't stop looking for you everywhere I go. I don't think this morning should've happened because now you're like a drug to me that I can't stop craving. This morning shouldn't have happened because now I want you way more than I anticipated. Now, I'm addicted to you and I can't get you out of my mind. That's what that was supposed to mean."
