Heartbroken

Before I had time to react Michael sprung away from me I turned my head to see Calum standing in the doorway. He coughed awkwardly "I uh think I left my phone upstairs" He stuttered walking backwards until he was out of sight.

I closed my eyes taking a breather to get my head around what had just happened before opening them to look at Michael, he was standing further away from me than before "I shouldn't have done that. I'm sorry" He said shaking his head "Michael, wait" I said hopping down from the counter top and reaching out for him but he stepped away from my touch and he turned away from me and ran out of the room slamming the front door shut behind him.

I ran to the door opening it and calling after Michael asking him to come back "He won't come back. Just leave him, he'll come back when he's calmed down" Calum called from behind me I groaned stepping into the house and closing the door behind me

"Did you hear what he said?" I asked letting Calum follow me into the sitting room and flop down onto the sofa beside me

"No but I knew how he felt. He's been wanting to tell you for a long time, that's why he brought you know upstairs at my party but then obviously he couldn't" Calum told me shrugging his shoulders

"I had no idea" I told him shaking my head slightly "Really? I thought it was pretty obvious. Ever since I brought him to meet you when you told me about Kylie" He said laughing lightly at the thought I shook my head

"How do you feel about him?" Calum asked watching me closely "I don't know. I mean I'm still not sure if I can trust him. He lied to me about beating Luke up and he still doesn't trust me enough to tell me about this Cara chick" I said

"You haven't given me time to" Michael's voice came as a shock to me both my head and Calum's shot up to look at Michael who was leaning against the door frame. I hadn't even heard the door open "Michael" I began but stopped not really sure of what to say as I wasn't sure how much of out conversation that he had heard

"Oh my mum just texted me. She wants me to go home. Bye" Calum said jumping up even though I hadn't heard Calum's phone make any noise but I didn't question him about it.

Michael came slowly into the room and sat on the arm of the sofa as far away from me as possible "You can sit closer to me than that" I told him watching him "I'm okay here" He said keeping his eyes on his fingers that he'd entwined together on his lap I nodded looking away from him

"So how much of that conversation did you hear?" I asked swallowing hard "Enough" Michael replied sharply "Why did you come back if you're in such a bad mood?" I asked before I realised how harshly I said it and I instantly felt bad for being mean to him after the day he'd had but before I had time to apologise Michael spoke

"If you must know Cara Jones was my last girlfriend. She died, Ivy. Are you happy now?" He spat bitterly turning his head to finally look at me "Michael" I began hearing the pity pour from my words "Don't. I don't want your pity, Ivy. That's not what I'm telling you for, I'm just telling you now about how it happened before you hear it differently from someone else" He continued the same bitter tone in his voice as before.

Michael's POV

It was a normal summers day and I was on my way to Cara's house to pick her up for the day that I had planned. I was the walking because my father had borrowed my car for the day. Someone called my name from behind me so I turned towards the noise and saw David, one if my friends from school jogging towards me. I waited for him to catch up to me before speaking

"What's up?" I asked him he stood and watched me through narrowed eyes "You're very happy considering, I thought you'd be at least a bit upset" David said I felt my eyebrows furrow together "Considering what?" I asked confused "About Cara?" He asked his eyes widening when he realised that I had no idea what he was talking about "What's wrong with her? What happened?" I asked quickly worried that something had happened to her and I hadn't been told "Michael, bro I had no idea that you didn't know" He told me shaking his head "Will you please tell me what is going on?" I questioned quickly I watched his Adams apple moved up and down as he gulped heavily

"She uh she was with some other guy" He told me slowly "What? How do you know?" I asked quickly "I saw them. They were all over each other so I confronted him he's in our school said that they'd been going out for the past 3 months and he dumped her right there" David said.

I felt as if my world was crashing down around me, how could she do this to me? How could the one girl I'd actually let myself fall for had been lying to me for our whole 3 month relationship. I really thought she liked me, I'd been so stupid how could I let myself fall for her?

I decided that I would still go to Cara's house and that I would pretend like I didn't know anything. I thanked David and carried on to Cara's house. When I arrived Cara was already outside the house

"Michael" She called running up to me "Hey, what's up?" I asked standing waiting for her to reach me "I was waiting for you, You said you'd be here like half an hour ago" She said hugging me reluctantly I hugged her back

"Well you know me, I'm just a bit slow aren't I?" I asked rhetorically she pulled back and looked up at me "Are you okay? You seem a little tense, is it your dad again?" I shook my head

"When were you planning on telling me? Or were you never going to tell me?" I asked quickly "I...I don't know what you're talking about Michael" Cara stuttered I shook my head again "Why are you so nervous then? Have you had more than one at the same time as me? Two? Three?" I asked bitterly "No Michael" "Oh good that makes me feel so much better. You're nothing more than a lying, cheating whore and I never want to see you again" I shouted before turning and running away I regretted not having my car even more now as I had to run through the streets with tears pouring down my cheeks.
