Chapter 8

Ethan's POV

As I strode over to Blake in the cafeteria, I couldn't help but notice Grayson and Cassidy, laughing and smiling at each other, Grayson giving her a peck on the cheek and Cassidy giggling cutely.

I should have been Grayson, kissing her.

I went over to the table where Blake and I would sit but she wasn't there. I asked a few of her dumb friends if they had seen her, but they just looked at each other nervously.

"She's in the toilet!"

"She's outside!"

"She's getting her lunch!"

They all cried at the same time something different. Something was wrong.

"Look," I started, leaning on the table with stretched arms. "If you guys don't tell me where she actually is-"

"Okay!" the brunette one cried, looking at her friends, wide-eyed, because there was no point fighting with me.

"She's in the janitor's closet." sighed the blond one, closing her eyes, "But that's all she told us!"

I left without even thanking them.

Something was wrong.

Th janitor's closet was all the way to the other side of the school, so whatever Blake was hiding, it wouldn't be good.

Soon, I was turning the corner to the deserted corridor at the very back of the school, the janitor's closet at the end of the hallway.

I stood outside for a few seconds before barging into the room, taking deep, hard breathes.

Blake was in Jase, the football star of the school's arms, her hands roaming all over his body. They were sticking their tongues down each other's throats, and the sight was disgusting. They were doing other things too.

I immediately looked away, not wanting to see anymore.

Blake dropped down from his arms, her face scared and surprised. But Jake just stood there.

"WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE?!" I yelled at her, immediately stomping down the hallway. She stopped me and backed me up to the end of the corridor, telling Jake to leave.

"Ethan-"

"I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANY MORE OF YOUR APOLOGIES YOU FUCKING BITCH!" I yelled at her.

"Ethan, that was nothing-"

"NOTHING?!" I continued, "SURE! IT WAS NOTHING, HOW YOU STUCK YOUR TONGUE DOWN HIS THROAT!"

"He's nothing to me, you mean much more! He's a stupid jerk!"

"A STUPID JERK WHO YOU USED TO CHEAT ON ME!"

"Ethan please!"

"HOW DO YOU STILL FUCKING BELIVE THAT I'M GOING TO TAKE YOU BACK!" I felt gutted, "YOU WERE THE ONE WHO DID EVERYTHING IN THE RUMOURS ABOUT CASSIDY. YOU FUCKING MADE THEM UP!"

"Ugh, whatever," she turned around to grab her bra from the Janitor's closet and ran after Jase.

Cassidy's POV

Rumours in this school go around fast.

The day that u got my double detention, Ethan had apparently broken up with Blake.

Inside I was amused. But then I snapped out of it and reminded myself I was with Grayson.
