-Lexi-

"Lexi, wake up before you get caught!" My  best friend, Carly called me up. My eyes gazed around the room, as I noticed the familiar surroundings of my English class. I felt wetness underneath my eyes. "Oh no Lex, did you have another dream about him?" Carly asked as I sensed a tone of worry in her voice. I realised she was talking about Danny, so I nodded, remembering the dream I had.

"Want to talk about it?" I nodded, again. She raised her hand and spoke to the teacher before we were excused out of lesson, then we searched around for an empty classroom.

Once we found one, we stepped in and closed the door behind us, putting a chair against it so no one could come in.

"It was a good dream," I started, she nodded to signal that she was acknowledging my words. "I guess I was just crying because, I miss him." I felt hot tears roll down my face as Carly stepped forward and put her arms around me. "I need him back, Carly. I'm not happy without him" I broke down, tears kept streaming and they wouldn't stop. "Lexi, it will get better. I promise!"

"But what if it doesn't? What if he moves on and I have to see him happy, with another girl? What if I can't move on? What if.." I stop and take a deep breath in attempt to calm my breathing.

"That won't happen, he loved you too, you know?"
"Yeah, that's what I thought. But I can't believe that after he left me with barely any reason."

"There's got to be a reason behind it. Maybe in time you will know but for now, you've just got to look forward. You will find someone else"
"I don't want anyone else. I need closure. I need to know why he left and acted as if it didn't hurt him at all"
"You will, just not yet"

I looked up into her soft blue eyes as she brought her hands up to wipe my tears away. I guess she's right. "We should head back to lesson, are you okay?"
I nodded and we left the room and headed back to class. My eyes glumly searched the grounds of the long school halls.

I didn't understand why he left me. He had given me no reason. All he told me was 'nows not the right time.' But I didn't understand it. What if there never was a 'right time'?

We can't spend our lives just waiting for the right things to come to us. We have to go out and make them happen. Danny obviously didn't understand that.

I doubt he even loved me anyway. Maybe he left because I never had sex with him. After all, he was the 'IT' boy. He could easily get any girls to do what he wanted. But not me. I wasn't going to just be there at his beckoned call. I knew better than to be so disrespectful towards myself.

As we were walking, I looked up. Instantly I wished I had just kept looking down at the floor, keeping out of harms way. But no, I had to look up.

My eyes became wide. My heart dropped and I lost all sense of feeling in my body. A new set of hot tears rolled down my face. My first instincts were to walk over to the slut that had her hands all over my boyf-  ex boyfriend. However I knew that wasn't the solution, so I ran. I ran down the halls, out of the building and through the streets. The tears wouldn't stop and I just felt numb.

Why did this have to happen to me? What do I do to deserve this?

Danny didn't care, he never cared. All I ever did was love that boy and treat him like he deserved. But as always, I got taken for granted and now I'm the one that looks like an utter mug.

Suddenly I felt something hard smack against the front of my body as I fell back. I screamed, thinking I was going to hit the floor, but I didn't. I felt two hands slide under my back, stopping me from falling. I opened my eyes. "Oh my god I'm so sorry" I exclaimed.
