When I awake; I find myself on my window seat with my head against a pillow and a blanket over me. My mother must have come in and seen me laying asleep here. The computer was now on my study table and my clothes from yesterday were neatly put on the back of my chair.

Last nights events were still very fresh in my mind. It was like a bad dream that was a reality. There was no way I ever wanted to talk to him again or even more, ever see him again.

I look at my phone that was still laying beside me and the time is 11:30 in the morning. Thank god it was a long vacation off of school. There is also 3 missed calls from Kaylie and 4 texts from Calvin. However I was in no mood to deal with their situation at the moment.

Dragging myself off the window seat, I feel my neck hurt and quietly I scold myself for sleeping in such an uncomfortable position. Making my way to the shower I turn it to hot temperature and step in making it wash away my past events. The water makes me feel serene and calm, helping me push yesterday's thoughts out of my head.

The feeling was quickly dried away hence coming out of the shower. Now I am left to face the hurt I was feeling and the sadness rushed in.

My phone rings and I answer it with a twinge of hope. "Maddie?! Finally Jesus Christ! I thought you'd died or something." Kaylie rambles on the other end, leaving me mentally slapping myself for even thinking it'd be someone else.

"Kaylie..."

She stops talking and waits for me to continue. "Me and Xavier are over." I finally admit it to myself and a sob escapes my mouth. I'm full off bawling on the phone and it won't stop. I guess this is what acceptance is like. Painful.

"I'm coming over right now." Kaylie says calmingly and her voice is also laced with anger. I nod forgetting she cannot see me and she hangs up.

I get dressed in a long sleeved black button up shirt with black jeans. Yes I know. Dark times calls for dark clothing. Tears are still rolling down me cheek as I finished getting dressed but I don't try to stop them. Not a minute later I hear footsteps running up the stairs and Kaylie bursts into my room.

Her face is full with shock as she sees me. "Maddie." She runs up to me and hugs me tightly. My eyes pool and I cry on my best friends shoulder. After a bit I calm down and we sit on my bed.

"What happened?" She asks me taking my hand.

Wiping away my tears I start hiccuping making me laugh. Kaylie raises an eyebrow at me like I'm crazy. First I'm crying and now I'm laughing. What is wrong with me? Anyway I turn my attention back to her question. "Well um...he out of the blue yesterday broke up with me and said I was a bitch. I-I know I can be but I wasn't. He just broke up with me for no reason."

Her face turned into a scowl. "That asshole. If I see him again I'm going to punch him the fuck out." She balls her fists and punches the air lightening the mood and making us both laugh. "But no for real I'm going to punch him the next time I see him and you can't stop me." I nod sadly hoping that I never have to see him again.

My doorbell rings and I tell Kaylie I'll get it. When I get to the door there is Calvin holding my favourite ice cream (cookie and cream) and also a box of chocolates.

"I heard what happened and also this is a sorry for what you witnessed last night." He give me a shy smile and I invite him in. Before closing the door I see a familiar car in the background but it doesn't strike me who it belongs to. Maybe Ms.Watson 3 doors down.

Closing the door I give Calvin a hug and thank him for my favourites. I tell him Kaylie is upstairs and before I head up, I grab three spoons. When I get up to my room Calvin took a seat on my purple bean bag chair. Handing them each a spoon we take spoonfuls of ice cream.
