What's your damage, McNamara?

Chapter seven: Mr Black Eyes

It took a total of 23 minutes to grab my blazer, run and pick up Veronica and speed over to JDs house. I banged on the door and to Jason's surprise, barged past him.

"Is your sister REALLY dead?!" By this point I didn't care about what I was saying. JD and Veronica were taken aback by this.

"WHAT?! Of course she is?! Do you honestly think I'd lie about my own sisters death?!" JD was clearly upset.

"It just seems a little strange that as soon as your sister dies Dora comes to my house with fake green contacts and has the exact same colour eyes as you? And natural brown hair too?!" I demanded answers.

"Heather stop this isn't-" Veronica was cut off by JD pushing me against the wall. He demanded for Veronica to leave. She didn't want to but I told her I didn't want her getting into this. She ran and shut the door after her.

"Listen here," he said in an angry whisper, "don't go round making assumptions as to why my sister isn't here. She's dead. I get it. Don't keep bringing her back. I thought you were different, Heather, that you under stood me. Wrong again I guess."

What if Dora wasn't Rachel? I had made a huge mistake. In an attempt to say sorry I grabbed JDs hand as he tried to walk away and turned him round to face me. The little girl in yellow staring up at the bad boy in a trench coat and finally giving in to him.

I pulled him close and kissed him. Longer than usual. He pulled away and looked at me. I expected him to stay and forgive me but instead.... he showed me the door.

That was it. My boyfriend hated and dumped me.

The next few days at school were hard. After cheer practice I'd keep hoping that he'd come over and say "well done "head cheerleader"" but he didn't.

One Thursday, I decided to sit on the bleachers after practice to sit and think about what I'd done.

I walked round the corner of the school.

I froze.

All my biggest fears were coming through at once.

JD....? Kissing..... CHANDLER?!
