Anger
Fustration
Sadness
Hope

These words are everything Im feeling as I walk to find Aaron. I hope to any god that's out there, that what Blake said is a lie. That I'm not a bet. That I wasn't used again. That the person I love didn't hurt me like this. I can feel my heart beating so fast that it feels like it's going to pop out of my chest. I'm scared. I'm so scared that this is true. I don't want it to be true. I'm happy with him and for me to find out that it's all lie.... It would be devastating.

I keep walking down the hallway and I look around the lockers, no sign of Aaron yet. But I know he's somewhere in the school. My hands start to shake a little at the anticipation.

I walk outside to the lunch tables and I look around for him until I freeze and stare at one spot.

There he is standing there with Asher talking and laughing. Looking at him makes me smile... Even though I might be a bet I still love him and I hate that. I have became so attached to him in the short time I've known him.

Taking a deep breath I slowly walk to Aaron and Asher. I start to walk a little faster until I'm right behind Aaron and he hasn't noticed. This is it. Please, please be a lie.

Not wanting to waste anymore time I approach him. "Aaron!". I shout.

He turns around and his face lights up seeing me, he leans in for a kiss but I move my head away and he frowns in confusion. But I don't care about that right now.

"Hey doll face what are y- " Aaron was saying but I cut him off.  I can't wait anymore, no more stalling and thinking I have to know if what Blake said is true.

"Is it true?!" I ask and my voice came out more angry than I expected. He squints his eyes in confusion and he frowns. I see Asher from the corner of my eye smirk knowingly.

"Is what true , doll face?" He ask innocently and I glare at him.

"You know exactly what I'm talking about!" I yell at him and he just looks at me in shock, still not saying a word.

I clench my fist in anger. "Answer me! AM I A DAMN BET?!" I yell at him

He looks at me wide eyed then guilt flushes threw his face and at that moment I knew.

I've been used. Again. But this time it so much worst, its by the person that I'm in love with, the person I trusted.

Tears fill my eyes but I don't let them fall "It's true." I whisper and his whole face fills with pain and sadness.

"Zinnia just let me explain." He says calmly with pleading eyes.

I glare at him and a single tear fall down my face. "There's nothing to explain! YOU USED ME! After what I told you! After you promised you never would! I trusted you! I loved you!" I yelled with a few more tears falling and people start to look at us.

He looks like he's about to cry. I've never seen him cry. "Zinnias please. The bet means nothing you're all I care about! I never thought I would fall in love with you. I'm so sorry, I regret it so much! You have to believe me!" He pleas to me desperately.

I scoff. "Are you serious?! Do you really think I will believe that?! You used me for a car! A DAMN CAR, AARON! I can't believe you would do that to me! Tell me all the things you did! Make me fall in love with you! And it was all just for a bet? All of it was fake?!" I shout at him with my voice slightly breaking.

He shakes his head frantically. He rushes to my side and cups my face with both his hands. I try to push him away but the sight of his pained broken face freezes me. "No no no, it wasn't fake, it was all real! All my feelings for you are real! Everything I did and said to you was real. I love you! I wouldn't lie to you about that! Zinnia I fucking love you!" He exclaims trying to convince me.
