(2 DAYS LATER)

Aria's POV

For the past few days I've gotten better. But all that was on my mind was the letter from Dave. I wanted to now if he meant what he said. And if he does, I will literally slap him on the face. Why? Because he if really liked me why hadn't he told me that a long time ago?

I don't know if I have feelings for him.. I mean he's super attractive but I mean I don't like like him? Do I?

I began to lose my train of thought as I started to get ready for school. Part of me wishes Dave hit me with his car a little harder so I would miss school more but the other part of me doesn't want to die.

I put on my dark denim jeans paired with a creme long sleeve and my green army jacket that had leather sleeves and topped it off with my black doc martens.

My mom took the day off of work so just in case I get a little lightheaded at school she wouldn't be interrupting her work. I told Tyler to don't wait up because my mom was taking Emma and I to school.

I know what you're thinking. Why doesn't she have a drivers license? Well I do have a drivers license just not a car. If I want to go somewhere I have to wait till my mom gets home because we only have one car.

~~~

"Call me if you need anything!" My mom yelled as I got out of the car.

I shut the door and waved goodbye as I felt a small arm wrap around me. Lauren.

"Hey girl, how you feeling?" She asked.

"A lot better actually." I replied

She smiled as we both walked to our first period and met up with Alex.

"Aria can I ask you something?" Lauren asked as I sat down and my desk.

"Go for it."

"So I was thinking since you're pretty tight with Dave do you think if you can ask him if he likes me?" She pouted

I smiled and thought she had no chance since Dave still has feelings for me but I didn't want to sound selfish so I told her I will ask him in my next period.

When the bell rang, Tyler came in looking exhausted.

"Babe are you okay?" I asked

"I'm fine Aria, does your head still hurt?" He said changing the subject.

"Uh yeah but are you sure you're okay? Your eyes look really drous-"

"I said I'm fine!" He snapped making everyone in the room stare at him.

"Tyler h-have you been drinking?!" I whispered loud enough for him to hear but quiet so nobody else would.

He slowly nodded his head. He knew that he couldn't lie to me.

"Is there something wrong Ms. Thompson?" My teacher asked

"Um no sorry" I said turning to face the front.

When class ended I made sure to take care of Tyler. I brought him to the janitors closet without anybody noticing. Luckily there was nobody inside so I locked the door shut.

I rummaged through my bag for the eyed drops that make his eyes less drowsy and some concealer to cover up his dark circles that made him look like he hadn't slept for days.

As I brought up the eye drops close enough to Tyler's eye he refused.

"Tyler come on I need to put this to calm you down and so none of the teachers notice anything!"

"It's not worth it. I'm not worth it." He sighed

"What're you talking about Tyler?! Of course you are don't ever say that!" I asked confused

"You don't deserve me Aria. I am such a jerk."

"No baby you're not," I comforted him "I don't know what I'd do without you"

"No I've done a bad thing Aria."

I started to get worried because when Tyler is drunk you never know what to expect.

"I'm sorry Aria! I'm so sorry I didn't mean to!" He sobbed

I don't know if its the drinking or if he's playing with me. He never acted like this the other times he was drunk.

"Don't apologize, Tyler. You did nothing wrong and I love you. And you know that"

"I can't keep it a secret for much longer its been getting in my head and everything. And the accident when you got hit that was all my fault. It's all my fault Aria."

"It's not your fault! I'm fine Tyler! Look at me." I said lifting up his chin to face me.

My eyes starting to tear up. I couldn't stand to see how broken he was, "see? I'm alive and- and I'm better! Don't blame yourself please-" I begged

"I cheated on you"
