All week I've been putting his song titles into sentences. It might be mean but it's hilarious seeing his reactions. Today I'm going to tell him I know. I thought he would have already told me by now. But he hasn't. I'm so pissed at him that it's not healthy. We only have three days of school left and by watching the boys' flip from this week they're moving in together then going on a UK tour. How would he explain that to me? When we got to piano after school Mrs. Dacker wasn't there. She usually never is on Fridays. I sat down at the piano and started playing All Time Low. Nathan was humming along until I heard him stop suddenly. I looked at him and saw his face. I got up and grabbed my bag.
"Kerri, I was going to tell you."
"When Nathan? Because to me it looked like you weren't going to tell me until you left." I said turning to him
"I was going to tell you when the time was right."
"Right. You have no idea how mad I am Nathan! We made a promise! No secrets!"
"This was to protect you. I knew you wouldn't let me help you if you knew I was in a band."
"You're right. I wouldn't have. But maybe I would have warmed up to the idea. You lying to me hurts me the most." I said
"I'm sorry, Kerri. But you have to understand-"
"I don't understand Nathan. That's the problem. I do not understand why you broke your promise. Why you kept a big part of your life hidden away from me."
"I didn't want you to get hurt." he said softly
"I'm hurt more than you could imagine, Nathan." I said walking out of the room
He didn't run after me. He didn't call after me. He didn't do anything. He just let me walk away. I just walked out of his life.

Over the weekend, I stayed locked up in my room. I told Sky what happened and she tried to help me but it didn't work. My dad yelled at me but I never turned to my blade. I feel accomplished that I haven't used it. After all this shit I've been through. On Monday morning I got up and got ready for school. I looked out the window to see Nathans little red car not there. A part of me wished it was waiting for me. But he wasn't. I don't blame him though. I got to school and everyone was excited because a band was playing here today. Apparently it was a surprise. I walked in school and immediately spotted Jay talking to Kathy and the rest of her crew. He looked my way and smiled
"Kerri!" Jay said leaving Kathy. She gave me a death glare and stomped off.
"Hi, Jay." I said hugging him
"Not to stir up anything but Nathan told me what happened. I told him to tell you sooner."
"Thanks, Jay. but he didn't take your advice."
"He's really beating himself up over it."
"I figured." I said sighing
"Maybe you should-"
"I'm not going to talk to him, Jay. I'm sorry but I'm not."
He ran his hand through his curls and sighed, "Okay, I get it. Doesn't hurt to try though."
"Yeah." I said smiling sadly.
"I gotta go. See you later!" Jay said taking off running down the hall
I went to my first class then we were soon called out. We went to the auditorium and I saw five familiar faces on stage plus our principal.
"So today we have a special treat for you all. Since you've done so well we have invited The Wanted to perform today! You may know Nathan who goes here. But here is Max, Siva, Jay, Tom and Nathan! Better known as The Wanted!"
