Chapter 12

   I hated my eyes. They always showed me what I pray to not to see. But what I did see, I didn't even know could be possible. It was unforgiving. A white Honda was pulled up to Josh's house and a girl with blonde hair stepped out. Josh walked closer to her and threw up his hands in confusion and anger. I heard a muffled noise through the window, theorizing that it must be Josh questioning her and/or her answering to his hand-gesture. I saw him shake his head, and this time heard a muffled voice specifically from the girl. She smirked, and then... She took everything I had hope for. He took every speck of faith I had in living. Their lips were pressed, her body against his, as if I were just being used the entire time. I felt as if I was one of those plastic toys that you get so excited for the first day, then forgetting about and losing the next. He didn't love me, not at all throughout all this time.I grabbed my phone then I turned to the front door, and walked past them straight to my house without a glance, or an expression. 

   "Tyler I-"

   "Don't talk to me. Not again. Don't talk to me ever again." I said without looking back. and walked faster.

(Josh's view-5 minutes back)

 I stood on my front porch, tapping my foot and crossing my arms. She pulled up. 

  " 'Bout time," I said, "so do you have her covered for tonight while I get everything set up?"

I was referring to my sister's birthday-which was tomorrow. She'd be out of town, so i decided to do something for her tonight when she visited. I got her friend to cover for me while I set up... The only bad thing about that was that she just-so-happen to be my ex girlfriend whom still had feelings for me after I told her I didn't feel the same way. I was just hoping nothing that shouldn't happen wouldn't.

 "Yep," she said, walking her fingers up my chest as she grabbed the neckline of my shirt.

 "Don't do anything stupid, you know how I feel about this, Jenna," I said, lightly backing up from her, with her fingers intertwined with the neck of my shirt.

 "Mhm," she said, completely ignoring what I'd just said. She tugged on my shirt and pulled me into an unfortunate kiss.

I pulled away violently.

The door to my house slammed.

  Tyler stormed out of the house with his face expressionless. He didn't dare look at me. Or Jenna.

  "Tyler," I said, trying to ease his conscience.

"Don't talk to me. Not again, Don't talk to me ever again."

  He just walked to the other side of the street to his house and slammed the door behind him.

My face turned bright red.

  "WHAT THE HELL DID I TELL YOU?" I screamed, turning to Jenna.

   She laughed.

"Who the hell was that?" She asked, turning back to the car.

   I didn't answer. She was going to tell Ashley.

"No one." [My everything]

  "Mk. So, boyfriend?" She asked, glaring at me.

"No." [The love of my life.]

 She just laughed again and drove off, leaving me standing there. Alone. Isolated. 

.

'I told you no one would ever love you,'  the voice echoed in both Josh and Tyler's head.
