why does she even like him? does he have something i don't ? maybe she's afraid of being hurt again?
all these thoughts are just running through my head. god i love her but why is it so hard to tell her. why can't we just start over.
"peyton are you o-" i could hear hunter trying to say before a door somewhat slammed. i get up. hunter opened my door, "i think you should see peyton." he said. "why can't you?"
"oh why?" he asked. "i just don't know how." he pulled my shirt and dragged me to peyton's door. he pushed me into it. "ow gosh darn it hunner" i covered my mouth as soon as i could. i could hear peyton sorta laugh behind the closed door.
i knocked. "peyton can i come in?" i asked. "um yeah i guess."
i walked in to see her crying through her half smile. "what's wrong?"
"i'm just tired of being played around by boys. first it was you, cheating on me then getting back with the girl who cheated on you twice and now caleb who just tried to use me for his own entertainment. god why can't boys just understand girls don't like to be thrown around as dolls and be expected to live up to their expectations."
"oh i- um sor-sorry" my words were jumbled up in my mouth. "i- i um didn't know you felt that way sorry i can just leave if yo-you want me to."
"no i didn't mean to offend you or anything i just i don't know. just stay sorry."
"no don't be sorry. you're right i did that stuff and i'm sorry. can we just start over and forget everything that's happened. i know its gonna be hard and i know you're afraid of being hurt again. i regret doing all of this stuff and hurting you. i miss you. i miss us. i hate being just friends knowing that i can't just kiss you and give you big hugs and i can't say 'i love you' and how i can't call you mine. i'm sorry."
