Who Said The Bad Boy Wouldn't Win?

Chapter 16

"Valentine?" asked Zack's husky voice in the darkness of the room. I didn't say anything as Jay got off me and looked at him. I covered myself with his sheet but I doubt that really changed anything.

"You're interrupting us." Said Jay nonchalantly. I was mentally freaking out on the other hand.

"You know, I really thought you were different, that you were not going to fall for him. But of course, he gets every girl." He said walking out. And just like that, realisation hit me in the face.

Tears started running down my face, and I jumped out of the bed to put my clothes on as fast as I could. I sprinted out the door after Zack, mascara and eyeliner probably running down my cheeks. But I didn't care, I just realised how much of a stupid mistake this was.

"Zack!" I yelled as he walked across the road. "Please Zack! Listen to me!" he stopped, and sharply turned around.

"What? So you can say how sorry you are for sleeping with him? I don't think so."

"But I am! I didn't know what the fuck came over me, I hate him and he..." that when I realised he didn't manipulate me into it, I chose to. I shook me head and looked down. "I just...I'm sorry and if I could take it back I would."

"Fuck that, you think you can sleep with Jay, the player of the year, and just fucking expect me to forgive you? How do you think I feel? He's my best friend and he gets every girl, and then you come along and completely hate him and stand up to him and you just seemed so incredible, but I was wrong. You are a slut and just like every other girl who's slept with him." His words hurt a lot. I flinched when he called me a slut, and I didn't even bother putting on a brave face for him, I just sobbed more.

"Zack, please. Please don't do this. I don't know what came over me, but please just give me one more chance!"

"I'm sorry, Valentine." He said as he walked away. I watched him walk away from me with his head down. Silent tears rolled down my cheeks and I watched him walk away from me, knowing full well that nothing I said would bring him back.

"I'm sorry too..."I whispered under my breath, even though he couldn't hear.

After I watched him leave in his car, I walked back into the apartment. I walked to my room, slammed the door and just collapsed on the floor in tears. I couldn't help it, I just kept crying. And it wasn't that Zack was the love of my life and I lost him, it was that I did that to someone. Something I swore I would never do again. I still remember that night so clearly.

VALENTINE PROV FLASHBACK

"It'll be okay. No one's going to walk in." said one of the five guys surrounding me. I only knew one of them, and he was my best friend's boyfriend of three years. I had no idea what was going on, I just sat on the bed, curled up as they all tried to get me undressed.

VALENTINE PROVE PRESENT

"Valentine? Are you okay?" came a voice outside my door. I knew it was Jay's, and I was surprised he was even bothered to get out of his bed after what just happened. I didn't reply to him however. "Please Val, please talk to me. I didn't mean to hurt you. I didn't mean for this to happen. I know you're in there."

"It's too late." I whispered to myself as I got up and walked over to my draw.

There were continuous bangs on the door from him but I ignored them and kept walking, pulling out the old anti-depressants that I didn't need to take over time. I know they were probably out of date and I don't know why I kept them but I did.

Slowly, every single pill made it's way down my throat and just as everything started to go black, someone burst through the door.
