The next day, I'm in bed just as I sigh. With Bruce off at LSU, I have nobody to talk with. Well, it wouldn't be all bad if I hadn't found out that Jesse had been cheating. Getting to school, I go straight to my locker and bite my lip to keep from breaking down. When suddenly, Jesse taps my shoulder "hey Ash."

"What do you want Jesse," I grit my teeth together.
  "Now that you know me and Carter are a thing, i was still hoping we could be friends again."
Closing my eyes, I exhale "you cheated on me with "her", why would I ever be your friend now," I fume.
Shrugging, he walks away "for the record, I still miss you baby."
Walking toward the bathroom, I run in and just let it out. Tears in my eyes, I close my eyes and wish for someone to take me away from this gut-wrenching pain. When Carter ripped Jesse from me, it felt like I couldn't breathe. But, with Bruce; I feel like myself again. Even though he's off at college, I just want him to be near me, to whisper in my ear "everything is going to be alright." But being away from the one you love is hard. Trust me, I've been down that road so many times. Likening someone is easy, but at times it can be hard. First, you start with a conversation, a little teasing or nickname calling, and before you know it; you have fallen for someone that you can't even call your own. Seeing him and another girl that you know, you be strong. But on the inside, you want that to be you and him. Will it ever be that day??
