KEVIN'S POV
Well fuck.
Can this day be any worse? This morning I was woken up by my brothers looking disappointedly at me. They bombarded me with questions as to why I spend time with Ashley and why I'm choosing her over Hailey. What they don't know and what im not going to tell them is that im protecting Hailey by being with Ashley.
Ashley is a bitch that I know. A few days ago she called me and asked me to meet with her of course I declined her invitation. But then she said it's an important matter that involves Hailey. We met at Starbucks that day and she told me that she hired a person to dig up Hailey's family's secret.
I was furious. All my life I wanted to protect Hailey I'm not going to let Ashley hurt her or her family.
She told me Hailey's adopted and that her parents kept it a secret to her because she might ask them about her real parents. According to her private investigator Hailey's real parents died in a car accident when she was 6 months old. And she told me the juiciest part was the other car that hit her parent's car was Mr. and Mrs. Tyler's car. Hailey's parents.
She threatened that if I stopped talking to her she will expose their secret. It would not only hurt Hailey it would also cause damage to her parents and to their business.
So I agreed to her proposal. She wants to make everyone think were together to be more popular. I know it will hurt Hailey but this is milder compared to the pain Ashley can inflict.
My brothers hovered over my bed telling me I'm a twat and a prick for breaking my promise to Hailey.
I told Hailey I'll go camping with them but after what I learned I cannot face her at least not that day. I know she has the right to know the truth but would it be worth it? And it's not my secret to tell her parents should be the one to tell her. I've already broken her heart I don't want to crush it even more.
Then at school at third period Hailey ignored me completely. I tried to move closer to her but she would scoot away from me. Great just great I thought sarcastically. When the bell rang she left with Naomi without even glancing at me.
At lunch time I saw Hailey's expression by then I knew I wasn't wanted so I told them I'm going to stay at Ashley's table. Then when Ashley saw me she started crying telling me how bitchy Hailey was. She told me what happened. I can't believe Hailey told her all of that she even told Ashley to stay away from me. What if Ashley hurt her by telling her the truth! And I'm not there to protect her!
I had to fucking comfort Ashley to make her stop crying. Everyone's giving me dirty looks thinking I made her cry. And I was freaking late for physics!
When I finally got to class I was pissed so pissed I didn't even flinch when Mr. Saltzman lectured me. I sat beside Hailey. I stared at her waiting for her to explain her little stunt. Then being her hard-headed-and-stubborn-self she got mad. We had a fight.
When I thought nothing worse can happen. Cameron happened.
Everyone seems to hate me today. And everyone seems to love Cameron.
I groaned.
My head hurts. I lay in my bed alone.
I closed my eyes then pinched the bridge of my nose in exasperation.
All I wanted was to make Hailey proud of me. To prove myself that I can do better. To show her how much I can change because I love her.
But every time I get the chance I lose it.
