My Heartstrings Come Undone [LGBT]

My Heartstrings Come Undone

 I stood out in the school hall-way, waiting...People who knew me well enough, knew what I was waiting for, others just walked on by. However I just got blank stares, from those whom were putting their stuff in there lockers, and heading to class before the first bell rung.

"Dude, he's playing you," My friend, Shane, started to say, when he saw me looking aimlessly around the filled hall-way.

"Like a violin," I finished what I knew he was going to say.

"Just shut up Shane. Until I have proof, meaning, until Joseph tells me he is, I won't believe you!",I punched my locker, with my rage, but yelled out a few cuss words, when it hurt more than it should have.

 I leaned back on my locker, and hit the back of my head on it. He was right, and I knew it. I just couldn't bring myself to believe, my boyfriend of two weeks, was indeed playing me. I couldn't come to terms that I may be in a love triangle.

"Fine, okay, but don't bring your sorry ass to me, unless you want me to say 'I told you so'.", Shane stomped off angrily, into his homeroom.

  Joseph walked past me, without saying a word. I felt my heart skip a beat, what it always did when we fought, stating that I love him more than life. I let him be for a moment, giving him the space that I guess he had wanted. I turned back to my locker and started digging around in it, or pretending anyway, so I wouldn't be told to go to class by a teacher. Then I felt someone poke my side. I smiled hoping it was Joseph. When I turned around, however it wasn't Joseph, it was Skyler.

"Hey Skyler what's up?”  I asked, shifting from foot to foot.

"Nothing. Well the sky." She teased then held her arms open. I responded by hugging her, in a kind of awkward way.

"Cool, so do you know what's up with Joseph?" I questioned her, pretty sure I already knew.

In response, she ran off to her class room, leaving me with my jaw hanging wide open.I slammed my locker door shut, and walked after her. When I walked inside her homeroom, she pulled me aside.

"What the hell is going on?!" I asked  angry now, and most likely turning red.

"If I tell you, you can't get mad. Okay?" Skyler looked at me in the eyes, deeply enough to cut me if she were a knife.

"I promise," I responded, but what I really meant was: "I'll try.”

Skyler, called out to one of the boys, whose name I didn't know, in her grade.

"Hey, tell Alex, about the rumors that have been going around, since it is out, already."She said, sighing, putting her face in her hands, like she was bracing herself for something.

"What about Joseph and you going out?" The boy asked, raising an eye-brow.

"Is it true Skyler?" I mentally crossed my fingers, hoping it wasn't, but keeping my cool the best I could.

"Yeah, it is..."She responded, looking down at her feet.

"You promise you wouldn't get mad!"Her head snapped back up, before I could say anything.

 "I know, and I'm going to do that, like I promised."I said hold out my arms and hugging Skyler.

She hugged me," He cheated on us, both of us."I said, trying to keep my cool.

"Wait? What?!"She responded, tears falling, freely and fast, from her brown eyes.

"It's not your fault, you didn't know..."I let go, and ran to the bathroom. So I could be alone.

"Alex!"Skyler called after me.

"Sky, just let me be, for a moment."I called back.I walked into one of the stalls, and let the tears fall, no longer holding them back.
