Kissed, by Dari (BoyxBoy)

16. Breakeven

I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing
Just prayed to a God that I don't believe in
'Cause I got time while she got freedom
'Cause when a heart breaks, no, it don't break even

"Get up," I hear from underneath the covers, "I need you to get up & stop this sulking. We're going out, get UP!" The familiar voices yelled from the foot of my bed. Throwing the covers away from my head, I open my eyes only to see Abby, Sadie, & Lewis.

"Oh God, what do you want? Leave me alone and close my blinds, its too bright." I yelled, throwing the covers back over my head.

"I'm fine & I most definitely don't need you people. So go on your dates & be happy Abby & Lewis. Sadie go talk to your best friend. Get out & I mean get out of my house, now." I screamed, muffled from the covers.

Snatching the covers off of me, Sadie slaps me repeatedly. "Look, I'm tired of your snarky comments & attitudes. I've tried to endure it because your hurt but enough is enough. I refuse to let you talk to me like that. Now, get your ass up & take a bath or I'll do it for you. I guarantee you don't want that either." she demanded, dragging me out of the bed.

"Fine, I'll take a bath." I grown, walking over to my bathroom.

Finally getting out of the shower, I dry off, tying the towel around my waist. I make my way towards my closet walking passed Sadie. I pull out a oversized sweatshirt and similar sweatpants with a pair of old chucks.

I'm ready I yell from the closet as Sadie walks into the closet, "What are you wearing?" She yells, "I don't feel like putting on any clothes so I'm just going to wear this, besides we aren't going anywhere." I cooed.

"Oh no sweetheart, I refuse to let you go out in public wearing this. Come on honey we're going to find you something better to put on." She says, walking back into the closet. Coming back out less than five minutes later, she has a bright yellow Polo tee, white shorts and, a pair of yellow converse.

Then she takes a step back, looking me up and down. "Yes, that's perfect, now lets go let Abby fix your hair up," Walking downstairs to the foyer where Abby & Lewis awaited with a travel hair kit.

"Ok, I'm ready to do your hair kiddo." she smiles, walking me to the dining room table. There was really nothing to be done, honest. All I had to do to it wash comb it into a style, very simple. Looking down at my phone, I saw that I had multiple missed calls & texts from Carson. Opening up some of them to read & I immediately regretted that decision. Not long after, tears fell onto the screen of the phone, stinging my eyes as they fall.

"Darilyn, whats wrong? Talk to us," Lewis says, bending down in front of me, "I'm here for you buddy."

I looked up, shaking my head as I did, starring him dead in his eyes, "No you're not, look at me. You've barely been around." I spoked, softly, choking on my tears.

"What is the purpose of leaving the only place I feel comfortable and at peace? Why won't you all just go away? All of you have been neglecting me since, I got you guys together. I am so sick of everyone trying to fix me, this is specifically why I didn't want to get involved with anyone in this town. I was doing perfectly fine before all of you came along, but now my life is a complete mess." I say as tears fall to my shirt and my voice becomes louder with every word is spit out.

"Sadie, you broke Carson's heart, and I healed it only to have mine broken immediately after. All of these events could have been avoided if we were never assigned this stupid project. So, here's an idea for the three of you, how about you all just leave. Don't come back, I'm not interested in whatever you're selling." I bellowed, walking out the door to my car. Wiping the tears away from my drenched cheeks I unlock my car door and proceed to drive away.
