This is a flashback which is very important to the story.

Your POV

He wrapped his arms around my face and kissed my neck.

"Hey gorgeous."

"Hey handsome."

"Did you bring my coffee princess?"

"N-no, it's in my car I'll go get it."

"Good girl." He grabbed my ass.

"Wh-when we're home."

"Fine, as long as you call me my proper name all day."

"I'd rather not be bullied." I quickly walked away before he could say anything or do anything. I decided to call Alice who wasn't at school.

"Hey, you good?" I heard her say through the phone, her voice made me smile, it was so calm and soothing.

"Kinda, you skipping today?"

"Yeah, can you cover for me?"

"Nope because I'm skipping with you."

The rest of that day was hell, he spread rumours I was cheating on him, he even sent pictures of me to some of his friends, all because I wanted to get away from my scary boyfriend.

I sighed as I heard my phone buzz in the middle of the night, only my best friend Mia called in the middle of the night.

"Hey, you okay?" I ask, she never was if she phoned at this time.

"Actually yeah, I'm doing great, how's your boyfriend?"

"Probably really pissed off at me because I skipped and went to Alice's without telling him."

"Ahhh, that's why he was saying you're cheating. You know he asked me to have sex with him."

"You said no, right?" I asked, kind of panicked.

"Yeah, I did, why would I fuck my best friends boyfriend, that's just messed up."

"True, so, uh, why did you call?"

"Shush, oh, erm, I just called to let you know that because I probably won't see you."

"Who did you tell to shush?" I asked, I got no answer, I just heard, kissing noises? "Mia, who are you with." 

"Oh, y'know, your boyfriend." She replied bluntly then hung up, I was heartbroken.

All I can feel is the moment where I felt my heart shatter into millions of tiny pieces, I felt sick, I still do thinking about it honestly. I lost my best friend and boyfriend because I was stupid enough to skip school and go see my other best friend. Wow, why was I such an idiot?

[Three weeks later]

"I have your coffee babe." I said as he wrapped his arms around me and kissed my neck.

"Good girl, you'll get rewarded tonight."

"I love you." I turned around and pecked his lips before walking to music.

"I love you too, now don't be flirting with anyone."

"I won't I promise." I looked down and walked into music, I took a seat next to a boy who didn't seem very sociable.

"Hey." He said, looking up at me.

"Hi, how are you?" I asked, if Jonny finds out I'm dead.

"I'm good, you?" I turn away from the boy as Jonny walked by glaring at me. Once he had gone I turned back around.

"Y-yeah, I'm fine." I didn't want people to find out the truth of our relationship.

"Who was that guy glaring at you?" He asked, worry seemed to be laced in his voice.

"M-my boyfriend." I said standing up and going to walk out but I feel a hand on my shoulder.

"Hey, it's okay, we can talk some other time." He said, reaching into his pocket for a piece of paper, maybe it was his number or something, I'm not too sure.

"No, I wanna talk now." I didn't know him but I needed to speak to somebody, anybody at all. I dragged him into the janitors closest.

"A-are you okay?" He asked, he put his hand on my arm and it made me feel safe, I finally felt safe around somebody.

"Not really." I answered pretty bluntly, I felt bad about answering bluntly but I didn't want to be a burden, I was already a burden to Alice, never mind this poor guy.

"Well, tell me what it is, tell me everything, I won't tell a soul, I only have one friend."

"Now you have two." I smiled, I liked him, he genuinely cared, I could tell, I couldn't believe he only had one friend, how could people not like him?

"Go ahead, spill everything." He said, giving me a reassuring smile, he made me feel confident, it was an unusual feeling but I was happy about it.

"Basically, my boyfriend is a control freak, he slept with my old best friend, he tells me off if I forget his coffee on a morning, he doesn't like me talking to other boys." I looked down sighing. "But I love him and I don't know what to do, I hate his guts but I love him." I mumbled, wiping the tears from my face as they fell, I felt weak, pathetic, I was crying over a boy who didn't give a shit about me, yet I would have still happily died for.

"Look, I think you need to tell him that you need some space, maybe a couple days, maybe a couple weeks." He said looking down at his feet, he seemed to know what he was talking about but he also seemed incredibly nervous, I just wanted to give him a hug and tell him it's going to be alright, even though I was the one in crisis.

"You don't understand, he controls my life." I said sadly, he did, he had to know my every single move or he would 'punish' me, or he'd spread rumors and sleep with my best friend.

"Well, is he controlling you right now?" He asked, being deadly serious, I felt like I'd known this guy for years when in reality it had only been just over a half hour, I felt like I could trust him with my life.

"N-no." I said, fiddling with my sleeves nervously.

"Do something then, do something right now that you would never do in front of him." He said looking around the cramped room.

I did the one thing I wouldn't dare do in front of anyone I was dating. I kissed someone I wasn't even with, hell, I didn't even know his name. He didn't hesitate to kiss back either, I honestly felt like we were there for hours, it was the most magical kiss I've ever felt, it felt like the 4th of July. I still don't remember who that was though.
