Things haven't been any better..Jaime tried to call me and so did Mike. I ignored them because I was too busy cleaning up the broken pieces on the floor of my house that happened to be my heart. I never thought I liked Mike this much. I just thought it was a stupid crush that I would eventually get over and move on with my life. That's not what it was.
I couldn't focus on anything anymore, I gave up on my strict diet and started eating junk food all the time. I just gave up on everything, I mean who wouldn't when you're sitting alone in a big house. I don't really know what to even say anymore..

There were four loud knocks at the door as I laid on my couch watching Star Wars for the hundredth time. I ignored the knocking of course and stuffed my face with more potato chips. Man, these things are good. Another four knocks repeated on the door. I groaned angrily and walked over to it, peering out the windows to see Mike, he was staring right back at me. I looked down at my appearance. "I'm not properly dressed, come back later." I croaked, staring down at my sweatpants and with me being shirtless, I was not okay with him not coming in.

"Come on Tone." He spoke softly. I looked up and saw him fixing his SnapBack.

"Why should I let you in? So Alysha can call you and you can go running back? Or no! Maybe, you would like her to come in my home and you can fuck on my sofa. Yeah, sounds like a plan. See you in a month." I shouted, turning and walking away from the door when he shouted something that made me stop in my tracks.

"Alysha and I are over! S-she cheated on me." He sounded sad, but I didn't really care. I sound like a whiny bitch, but he was the dick that made me into a whiny bitch.

"I feel sorry for you Mike, I really do, but I wouldn't come crying to me." I continued walking away from his pleads until I heard the jingle of a key and the door open, I slowly turned around and he was standing right there.

"Do you really think I'd give up on you without a fight?" He asked with a giant smirk.
