chandler's pov

the alarm clock rings through my whole room. causing me to fall out of bed, and hitting the ground. i would've whimpered out in pain. but the pain i felt when i fell is nothing compared to the pain i felt when abbie walked away.

she's not mine anymore. i can't hold her in my arms like i used to. i can't kiss her face multiple times until i annoy her. i can't look at her with admiration and wonder how i landed such a perfect girlfriend.

she's free to go with whoever she wants, and that's what kills me the most. we're not together. so if she wanted to, she could go out with another guy.

after getting ready, i get inside my car and drive to school. i arrive, only to find the hallways deserted. it might be because i never come this early to school. it's seven am, people don't start showing up until eight.

so for the next hour i just wander around the halls, asking myself how me and abbie could be together once again. the only way to do that is for her to find out who blackmailed me. but i can't do that, i can't risk abbie getting hurt.

once everyone starting arriving, i made my way to first period. the only period i have with abbie .

i get to the classroom, hoping to find abbie sitting in her usual spot, next to me. but no, i was wrong. instead i come in to the classroom to find abbie sitting with, of course, cody. the star of the football team, the jock, the guy every girl wants is sitting with my girl.

i roll my eyes and try to ignore them as much as possible. the class then begins, but i don't pay attention to a single thing. i was looking at abbie the whole time. how can she be so freakin gorgeous?

"chandler!" my annoying teacher yells. i snap out of my thoughts, causing my whole body to jump up. "i would appreciate it if you would stop making googly eyes at abbie and would pay attention in class."

my cheeks turn bright red, and the whole class bursts out laughing. i bury my face into my arms, not wanting to face anyone.

as soon as the bells rings, i'm out. "chandler-" someone calls out, but i walk away as fast as possible.

i ditch lunch, and just hang out on the school's roof during that half hour. i walked home the minute the final bell rang.

and that's just how the rest of the week went. i ignored everyone at school, and at home. abbie didn't try talking to me once. so it got me thinking, did i really ever mean anything to her?

"chandler, come on bro. let's go out and do something. i heard abbie and ally are going to be at phany's burgers. wanna go?" josh asks, causing my stomach to churn at the saying of her name.

"nah, i think i'm good." i say as i throw a blanket over my body. josh let's out a groan, then pulls the blanket off.

"we're going." he says, and i don't know how he possibly did it, but he got me out of bed and into his car. after buckling our seat belts, he starts the engine and drives off. in a matter of minutes we arrived at the the burger place. "don't worry, it'll be fun. you can even talk to abbie. just because you guys didn't work out that doesn't mean you can't be friends." little does he know that we worked out perfectly. but a little devil made is break up.

we both enter the restaurant, the smell of grease and salt hitting me almost immediately. "look, there they ar-ohh." josh says, dropping his voice at the end of his sentence. "m-maybe we should just go back to your house. movie night! haha, let's go." he stutters nervously, then tries pushing me out the door.

i confusedly look at josh. just a minute ago he wanted me to get out of bed and go out. now he wants me to go back home?

"look, we're here now so let's just enjoy it-" i cut myself off once i see what josh was talking about. my fists clench involuntarily, and i find my adrenaline kick in.

"now chandler, no need to be rash." josh warns, but it was too late. i was already walking over to the table that seated both cody and abbie.
