Despite not being able to breathe, I keep running and running until I get to where I have to be. Where I need to be.
Bella's house.
I text her that I'm outside and get an immediate reply:
Ok bish, someone's moody, coming.

As soon as she opens the door and sees my face I'm greeted with a huge bear hug. Anger boiling inside me and heart ache swimming through my veins, I still find it in me to smile at my beloved best friend.
"Hay, Rosey, what's wrong?!" She asks, sounding seriously concerned. And that's when it all comes pouring out...

Bella hands me a hot chocolate and wipes my tears that have been streaming for the last half an hour.
"Listen" she starts, " I've never heard you talk about a guy like that but if he does this, Rosey, he doesn't deserve you!" She exclaims, "if I were you, I'd be more upset that I'd just left my Michael Kors bag at school!" She jokes and I laugh somehow. Through all the pain and tears, Bella always makes me laugh...
"I know" I sniff with a little giggle, " but why would he lie.. He seemed so genuine and .. Perfect. And I believed him. I'm so stupid!" I say, fighting back the next round of tears and sipping my favourite hot chocolate.
"Awh babes!" She says, tears forming in her eyes now too. "I'm so sorry, but you're going to be ok. You've gotten through everything before. I've always admired you, you're so strong, Rosey!" she says, smiling at me and handing me another packet of tissues, "it hurts me too, to see you like this. You're an amazing person - don't let him break your heart like this. Come on, chin up princess, your tiara's falling.." she quotes my favourite quote and I smile, winning the battle against my tears.
She ties her very light blonde hair up in a messy bun and I do the same, stopping it from sticking to my damp skin.
"Thank you so much, Bella. I love you!" I say, honestly, I really do love my best friend.
"You're welcome, Mango" that's her nickname for me, and her nickname is pineapple because mangos and pineapples go well together... "that's what best friends are for."
