Goodbyes

BRIDGET'S POV

I had the most amazing night last night. I love Luke. He makes me feel like me. I can always be me around him.

I looked next to me and saw that he was still sleeping. I quietly got up and changed back into my clothes instead of Luke's t-shirt. I went and used the bathroom real quick to freshen up and things.

I went back in his room and sat on the bed. We are leaving today. I don't wanna go...

I heard Luke's phone go off and quickly got it before he could wake up, but it was only a text.

Hey babe! I'm so happy you're coming home today, I missed you(:

What?...

Let's not overreact Bridget... Guys call you baby or babe all the time and you're just friends with them so there's nothing wrong with this. I have a simple way to put my mind at ease and find out that whoever this is, is just a friend.

So, I replied. Whether that was against my boundaries or not, I didn't care.

Hey, sorry. Who is this? I lost all of my contacts.

In a minute I will find our that there is nothing to be worried about and that Luke would never lie to me.

Then the text came.

It's Dara! Your girlfriend silly, I'm so excited to see you! Xoxo love you:*

I felt my heart break in two. This isn't happening. It's all just a bad dream. C'mon Bridget, wake up already!

He's cheating on me. He gave me a ring. A promise ring. He made me a promise to be faithful and loyal to me... and he was cheating on me the whole time?

I stood up with tears welling in my eyes. I slipped the ring off of my finger and threw it at his face, waking him up.
He rubbed his eyes and looked at me.

"Ouch, babe, what's wrong?" He said sitting up.

"Don't call me babe. What's wrong? What's wrong is that you were cheating on me!" I threw his phone at him. "Dara? I asked her who she was and she said she was your girlfriend, Luke. What am I, then? You promised me Luke... You promised. Just don't talk to me ever again. Take your stupid ring back. It doesn't mean shit to me," I said stomping out of his room.

"Bridget, wait!" I heard him call behind me. I grabbed my purse and phone and walked out of the door to my house.

A hand grabbed my arm, stopping me in my tracks. "Bridget, hold up." Luke said.

"Get away from me! I don't wanna talk to you. You're an asshole. You used me to get what you want." I said pulling my arm away.

"I know I'm an asshole! But Bridget, I love you. I would never use you! Dara doesn't mean shit to me. I just wanna be with you! I was planning on breaking up with her when I got home!" He said grabbing my hand. He wiped away a tear from my face.

I pushed his hand away and pulled my arm from his grasp. "Are you fucking kidding me? You could've at least told me that. How do I know you aren't lying to me? How do I know you aren't trying to cover yourself up? That's the thing, I don't know. And I'm done trying to figure you out. Delete my number. Don't call me, don't text me, don't try and find out how I'm doing. Just leave me the hell alone."

"Bridget! Stop!" He yelled once more but this time, I didn't look back.

I ran back to the house to finds Grace. She was in her room with James' arms wrapped around her. I slightly shook her arm.
