under the blue moonlit place.

i'm sorry.

I spent the whole night with Delvin, stroking his hair, singing to him and letting him cry into my arms. I had never felt so wounded, it was if a person had come along and shot me in the head and stabbed me in the back and walked on. I absolutely despised seeing Delvin so hurt. He wasn't ready to confront Aiden so I just left him when he was ready. Delvin had been missing school for 2 days now and I had gone home every night to check up and calm him. He was depressed, sad and angry and I don't blame him one bit. His mum was the angel through all this, looking after him and hosteling me. Aiden had texted Delvin but he ignored. 

"Shh Delvin, it's ok. Let it all out." I whispered into his ear.

"I-I'm s-so sorry-y Daisy-y. I j-just don't-t know what-t to do-o." He sniffed, stuttering like a child.

"Don't be sorry. Don't be sorry. He is a liar, cheater and no good for you. I'm sorry. I love you, babe." I said stroking his smooth cheek. 

"I-I love you more-e." He wailed.

"Not possible." I giggled, whispering to him. 

I ignored Aiden as much as I could everyday, until Friday I couldn't hold it in anymore. My anger was building up inside until the last block. It had become like a drug, I was addicted to frustration. I powered through the hallway rapidly evading all humans possible. Even Summer and Noah didn't know what was happening but they would soon. They were hanging around our lockers talking.

"Hey Daisy." Summer and Noah said.

"Hey." I said bluntly.

"Is Delvin better? Are you ok?" Summer asked worried.

"Still sick, yes i'm fine." I answer not looking at either one of them. I felt a tap on my back and I whipped around looking at a blonde headed monster.

"Hey Daisy? Is Delvin ok, he hasn't replied to like any of my texts?" Aiden asked falsely, that little lying bitch.  I snapped. I had to, it was now or never and I much preferred now. I grabbed his collar like I was taller than him and pushed him back screaming in his face.

"You know why? Maybe, maybe becuase you're a cheating fib! Think you can play on him like a fucking toy? I saw you Aiden, kissing that other dude! You don't do that to my best friend, you lying scum bag. You don't deserve him, or anyone else! So why don't you fuck off and go live your life with false, arrogant, cheating bitches like yourself!" I shouted with every last power I had inside. I punched him in the face causing him to trip over and smash into the lockers, woah that hurt. I'd never punch anyone before and now I knew what it felt like. Everyone swarmed around us like we were flowers and they were bees; gasping, pointing, some pulling phones and some running for help. I stared down at him, blood dripping from his nose. He deserved it. I felt dreadful but I felt like I had let go off a grudge, releasing a feeling caught inside me, trapped. 

Tears started to fill my eyes as I turned around at the shocked expressions on peoples faces. People were whispering and gasping. Aiden's friends helped him up and back on his feet while I heard the sound of teachers storming up the hall. I wasn't popular, I was shy. I wasn't hated but this was a surprise to most people, even myself that, that I could do something like this. I didn't know what to do so I ran, I ran all the way I could and straight out of that school. Summer and Noah were so took aback they were paralysed. I grabbed my bike and peddled as fast as I could, and guess where I went? My blue moonlit place. 

I cycled for a while until I reached it and sat staring into the dream filled, glorious lake, trees and mountains. Then I let it go, I just sat crying in my hands for a bit. What had I just done? I kept replaying the scene over and over in my head. I was so stupid, but it felt good. I was so dumb, but I needed to do it.  I was so caught up, I didn't realise I could have resolved it peacefully. Ugh. I pulled out my phone and sent two simple words to Delvin:

"i'm sorry."

I knew he would be mad, but he would also be happy that I cared for him. I hoped. I had to go back on school on Monday and resolve this, my mind ached just thinking about it. I rested my head in my hands for a bit and just stayed still.

After a while I felt 2 warm hands slide around my back and link across my belly. I would have jumped if it was someone else but I knew from the soft, familiar hands that they belonged to Savannah Greye. I looked down at them then twisted my head towards hers where we were millimetres apart. I gulped and blushed staring into her mysterious locked eyes. She smiled and pushed my glasses back up my nose a bit and sat next to me. I stared for a second or two where she just was, wanting to reach up and kis-. 'No Daisy' I thought to myself. 

"Hi-i. Why are you here?" I shyly questioned.

"I heard what happened, and I knew where you would be, so I came as quick as I could." Savannah replied. I smiled at the fact that she came for me and knew where I was. It made her smile too, I could see in the corner of my eye. 

"Thank you, Sav. I'm sorry I just, I just got so angry I couldn't hold it back." I frowned staring at the edge of the pier at our dangling legs. Savannah put her hand over mine.

"It's ok Daisy. I understand, he is a jerk." Savannah comforted me. I gazed at her and tried to look away but she, was so beautiful. 

"Why Savannah, out of all people. You decide to recognise me?" I asked confused in this thought I have had for a while. 

"Because you're worth recognising, Daisy Pluto." She smiled.
