Brendan and I walked down the hall and then I saw Krista, we caught up with her and I knew there was something. Her face was slow and empty and she wasn't talking so I told Brendan to go ahead and we would meet up with him so I could talk to her. I asked her what was wrong and she completely spilled it all out right there, " I think Joey is cheating on me, he must be, he was texting someone all class and when I asked who it was he just said oh its no one and slid his phone farther away from me. I know its some girl, who else would it be that he would hide from me? I'm just shocked that he would do something like this I thought he really liked me but I guess not! I have to break up with him I hate guys who cheat its so irritating you know?" I stopped her short to tell her something but what really suck in my head was her last comment on knowing what it was like for guys to cheat and the reason it stuck is because I did and trust me I hurts.
(I'll tell you that story some other time)
I held her shoulders and looked her in the eye saying " Krista..... I doubt he's cheating, you know he loves you and he was probably just texting Brendan because Brendan was doing the exact same thing and I assumed it was some girl too but what are the odds that they both are doing that at the same time? Don't be so dramatic you need to calm down and act like everything is fine but watch for the signs and like I said I'm doubting that there is anything is happening. okay?" I asked and she responded with a small whisper in the midst of sighing out" okay".
We walked down the hall, saw that Brendan and Joey had saved us seats at lunch and went for the line. We got our food and sat with our two favorite boys. We talked and did what I said, act like everything is fine and even though it looked like it was, I still wasn't a hundred percent positive they were texting each other and I still wanted answers and so did Krista because every time no one was looking at her she would break character and a lot of her smiles and laughs were sadly fake and I hated seeing her like this because it may me just want to punch someone in the throat but I refrained from violence and went on with the act like everything was normal.
The rest of the day went on without much activity and then I went home on the bus and went on with my daily life.
