Falling (in love/apart) [Completed & EDITING]

Crying And Writing Chapter 13

After a long day of avoiding James, Amber and I went to the mall to look for a dress. Amber was talking to me about the different types of dress we can choose (I didn't know there were so many), but I wasn't really listening.

"Andy asked me to prom", I said and looked at Amber. She had a huge smile on her face.

"I know, he texted me right after lunch", she said "Now we HAVE to find the perfect dress because then he'll look at you and fall in love and you'll stay together forever live happy ever after". She laughed and started singing: "Andy and Dylan sitting in a tree...". I let her have her moment. The more important thing is finding a dress.

We went to almost every store in the mall and Amber found an adorable black strapless dress with a white ribbon, but I just couldn't find the perfect dress. We entered this small shop when I saw it: one-sleeved white long dress. Simple and elegant. I tried it on and Amber said: "Wow, you look like a bride!". As you can imagine I bought the dress, and we both went home satisfied.

I came home happy about the dress I bought. I opened the door to my room and almost screamed when I saw James sitting on my bed with a rose in his hand.

"James! You scared me! What are you doing here?", I knew the answer but I was playing dumb.

"I... Will you go to prom with me?", he said quickly.

"James..."

"You're going with him."

"Yes." I felt horrible.

"Are you two dating?"

"Kind of."

"Oh. Sorry for scaring you.", he left the rose on my bed and walked out the door.

I sat on the bed, grabbed the rose, and started to cry.

If I'm happy with Andy, why do I feel so bad saying no to James? Why does it bother me so much that it makes me cry?

I grabbed my phone and walked down the hall to a room. I took a key that was in my phone case and unlocked the room. This was the one room in this house no one could enter besides me. This is my dance room.

The walls are painted baby pink, and one of the walls was entirely covered with a giant mirror. Opposite to the door there was a big stereo. I entered the room and locked the room. I hooked it up to my phone and played the song "Cry" by Alexx Calise. It just described my feelings perfectly. The song started playing and I laid down on the floor. When she started singing the tears started to stream down my face. Every tear hurt so much, it was like my face was burning. I felt my body getting weaker and weaker. My stomach started to hurt so much it felt like I was dying. Every bad memory I ever had played in my head over and over again. I couldn't breathe. I kept seeing James' and Andy's faces in my head, and I couldn't make them to go away. I wanted to scream. I wanted to let the world know that even if I look ok I'm not. I'm broken.

The song ended, I wiped away my tears and stood up. I grabbed my phone, unlocked the door, stepped out, locked it again, and went to my room.

I looked at my phone and saw I got a text message from Andy, I opened it and it said: "Amber told me you bought an amazing dress, can't wait to see it ;) x". I didn't feel like talking to anyone so I didn't reply. I was walking towards my desk when I saw a bundle of papers with a letter on top of them. My name was written on the letter and from the handwriting I saw it was James, the letter said:

"I felt creative so here's the ending to the story. You don't have to use it if you don't want to. Now we don't have to meet up anymore.

It was fun working with you,
