Angie's POV
-----------------------------------------------------------

     "Alex, why would I lie to you?" I asked him, beginning to get fed up with him. Thomas wasn't even my friend before this, so why would I lie to spare him?
     "I don't know why, but its impossible for him to be innocent! I walked in on it happening!" Alex yelled back. He still thought that Thomas had cheated on him.
       "I'm trying to explain!" I was getting really upset now. Thomas loved him! "James kissed him and he panicked! The texts were photo shopped." I sat down, my throat sore from yelling and waited for a response from Alex.
     "Listen, I don't have time for this," he said, walking back to that damn laptop, "you can either stay and watch me type or leave an not waste your time."
     There really wasn't a way to get through to him. I left feeling exasperated and called Thomas.

Thomas' POV
-----------------------------------------------------------

     "What did he say?" I anxiously asked Angie over the phone, "did he believe you?"
      "I'm sorry," said Angie solemnly, "he's really mad, and this whole thing is really taking a toal on him. I haven't seen him eat or sleep in days."
     I had to help him in some way or another, but the situation felt hopeless. I flopped back down on my bed and hung up after saying goodbye. I decided I should probably do my homework so I didn't fail my classes and got to work. At least it distracted me from Alex.

Alex's POV
-----------------------------------------------------------

      I went back to typing as Angie left the dorm. I couldn't believe she was taking Thomas' side in this. I typed for what seemed to be only a few minutes, but I could see the room slowly get darker and feel my eyelids start to droop. I didn't want to go to sleep, so I just kept typing until my head fell on to the keyboard, my body forcing me to sleep.

     I woke up to my alarm with a pain in my neck. I realized I was lying on my keyboard and picked up my head, seeing a line of F's ten pages long. I dragged myself out of the chair and began to get ready, internally groaning because I had a class with Thomas.
     I walked to class in the brisk morning air and sat down in my usual seat. To my horror, Thomas sat right next to me. "Go away." I realized how childish that sounded and turned my head away from him.
     "Listen I need to explain," he said softly, putting his hand on my shoulder.
      I shoved it away and stared at him. "There's nothing to explain. Why don't you go sit next to James now and leave me alone."
     At that moment, professor walked in and told us to sit down. I was stuck sitting next to Thomas. I turnedy back towards him and began typing notes about the lecture angrily. Finally, it was over.
      "Wait." He grabbed my arm and began to pull me closer.
     I ripped my arm away from him. "Don't you get it?" I screamed, "we're over! You threw it all away!" Washington looked at me confusedly but I waved him off and stormed out, desperate to get away from Thomas.

Okay so I had writers block so sorry its short and trash but next chapter will be great. Prepare for heartbreak. K bye!
