We Were Never Meant To Be (ON HOLD)

Chapter Fifteen

CASSIE'S P.O.V

It's the fourth day since Danny stormed out of my house and I haven't spoken to him since. I've tried approaching him since but he kept avoiding me. Today again I'll try again. I was walking when I saw him with Jamie, Conner and Kyle already heading to the next class. I called out to him but he acted like he didn't hear. I called out again and this time a little louder and everyone turned around.

"Can I talk to you for a sec?" I asked. This is the longest he's looked at me all week and I could see the hurt in his eyes as he continued to look at me. I tightened my grip on the strap of my backpack waiting for his answer.

"Sure" he said and started to follow me as we headed to an empty stairway. "So what did you want to talk about?" He asked in an expressionless tone.

"Umm" I stuttered. "Are..you mad?" I asked not really wanting to hear his answer because I already know.

"What do you think?" He asked

"That you're really upset..." I added. "You haven't talked to me since the day you stormed out of my house. Look Danny I really didn't mean to push you away" I tried to defend myself. I don't know what I was thinking then my body just acted on its own. Or did it? I don't know. Deep down I really didn't want to go any further with him. I only don't know why. We've been together for a year and a couple of months now and it just feels like we're only Friends. Of course friends don't make out and kiss each other but that's the only difference.

"Sure you didn't" he snorted. "If you didn't want me to touch you Cassie all you had to say was stop. If you had said that I would have understood that you probably wasn't ready but instead you pushed me away. Do you know how I felt?" He looked completely heartbroken and it's definitely my fault. What shocked me the most was that I didn't care and I should.

"No I don't know how you felt but I can tell that you're hurt. Danny I didn't mea-"

"Bullshit" he cut me of. "Are you going to come with a stupid story like your body moved on its own? Because I won't buy it. Tell me Cassie what was your real intention."

"I-"

"You what?"

"I don't know" I said feeling defeated.

"Fuck it!" He hissed. "Is there someone else?" He asked. At that moment all the blood rushed to my head and all I could think of was Kyle. "So there is" he took me not replying as a yes and just assumed on his own that it was.

"No there isn't" I tried to defend but was that true? I don't know when I started to think about Kyle like that. I never thought of him like that.

"You know what forget it" he said and walked off. I grabbed onto his wrist trying to hold back but he pulled out of my hold and continued to walk away. I just stood there blankly looking at nothing. A thousand thoughts popped into my head but none of them made sense.

"Go after him"

"No"

"You love him"

"Stop"

"You're nothing without him"

"That's not true"

"You're a bitch"

"You don't deserve him"

"You never loved him"

I shook my head trying to get these thoughts out of my head when I saw Kyle walking towards me. Why did he have to come now? I was trying so hard to hold back my tears. Why do I always cry when he's around?
