Broken (4)

Trey was standing outside Ash's gate just looking at the house as if he were to come in somehow. Before I shouted his name, he was angry and was nearly crashing through the door like a bull in a china shop but when I did, a calm Trey looked at me but he looked hurt, I could tell.

"What you doing here?" He said so silently but just enough so that I could hear.

"I went to talk to Ash, why you here?" I said with a hint of attitude because why was he here? Did he think I was cheating. I obviously wasn't so he didn't to come unless he thought I did.

"I'm here because I knew you would come, he's no good and you're easily led."

"EASILY LED!" I just shook my head in disbelief, he didnt even trust me at all.

Ash came out of the house in a sort of panic, he must of thought that I was in harm's way well I was sort of.

"Why you here Trey?" He said with his voice just a little raised.

"You know what...you can have him Khayla, I can't do this."

"What do you mean this?!" Yet again, my emotions were being tested by Trey and Ash.

"I can't be in competiton with him."

"Neither can I Khayla." added Ash.

"Listen Khayla, baby I love you but you have to choose."

"I don't want too.." I started to cry, innocence of my young age at the time kicked in as I realised that one decision could shape how I grew up and my decision ultimatly did.

....Two Days Later....

It was Tuesday and I was back in school, luckily I went to a all girl's secondary school so I didn't see either Trey or Ash obviously. However that didn't mean that both of the boys tried to get in contact with me. Constant texts, calls and even emails which I actually couldn't believe. I was 13 and had to make a choice. I knew I should of done it a long time before it even came to this but again I was young and dumb but I couldn't because being immature kicked in.

"Khayla! Focus!"

"Sorry Miss." I smiled sweetly.

I was in the last lesson of the day, R.E which I didn't mind because I had to think a lot in that lesson so it was easy to disguise what I was actually was thinking.

.....

After the bell rang, I decided to walk home as I was a pretty warm day and the fresh air could help me clear my thoughts which as usual were jumbled.

Thoughts:

Trey (Current Boyfriend):

Loves Me.

Caring (At Times)

Good Looking.

Kind.

Dont See Him Much Though. So Many Excuses.

Ash:

Cares about me.

"KHAYLA!!!"

Really Sweet.

"KHAYLA!!!"

"Huh...Oh sorry." I was so wrapped up in my thoughts that I didn't notice that AJ was trying t oget my attention.

AJ is Trey and Ash's mutual friend but I've known him since I was about 4 so that is the benefit of AJ, he knows me and can maybe help me decide who is better for me.

"AJ."

"Yeah."

"Who do you think is better suited to me?"

He knew the situation because he is literally in the middle of it.

"I can't say, I have loyalties to everyone involved so it ain't right if I helped you choose."

"But I don't know."

"I know you don't."

"Hmmm..."

"Just think because this isn't just about you, it's about them too."

When I got to my house, I decided I had to make my decision by 5:00pm which was in fifty minutes exactly.

50 Minutes Till Decision Time.

"Khayla, can you clean up your room please?" My mum bellowed from the living room where there were about 3 toddlers trying to climb on her at once.

"Ok mum." Maybe it would take my mind of it for a lil bit so when I decide its more clear?

10 Minutes Till Decision Time.

I've made a decision and I'm going to call him, I'm just scared a little.

5 Minutes Past Decision Time.

Ok, Im dialling the number now, I pressed call and listened to the ring.

"Hello?" He picked up all confused.

"Um. Hi!"

"You ok Khayla?"

"Yeah thanks, you?"

"Not really, you putting me through hell."

"Im sorry."

Awkward silences are the worst on the phone.

"So what you call for?"

"You. I want you Trey."

After about an hour on the phone and a sufficent loss of credit, we was back on track, I sent Ash a text saying sorry but I had to stay with what I knew which was Tey, I didn't want to lose him, I couldn't. I love him.

*Trey's Point Of View*

Phew. I loved Khayla more than anything but what she went through is nothing. I did something real bad and it's gonna change our relationship as it stands.

I cheated.

Only because she did with Ash.
