Kat POV

---------------------------------

Connor cheated on me, as I shut the door quietly behind me that all I can hear.

My ears ring with the voice of my subconscious "He cheated on you."

I wipe my eyes and I sniffle as I try to calm myself down by singing. It's always calmed me down, I love to sing and hum myself to sleep.

I hum 'She Will Be Loved' by Maroon 5 as I text Tori to come over.

She replies immediately that she's on her way, I steal a quick peek to see if Connor's dreadful car is still there.

Surprisingly, it is. He stares at the steering wheel blankly, is he crying?

I slam shut the shades, he can't be crying. He shouldn't be crying, why would he be crying?

I slowly peek out the window again, his car is gone.

My heart melts a little knowing he at least gives a shit that he hurt me, I wipe my eyes a second time.

God I'm an emotionally wreck, a few

more tears fall lightly onto my shirt.

Tori doesn't knock or ring, she just waltzes on in and sits next to me on the couch.

That's what I love about her, she doesn't ask me what's wrong or if she can come in. Seeing my tears, she obviously knows I'm not having it.

Next to her lies a white plastic bag, she pulls out a tub of Blue Bell mint chocolate chip ice cream.

I take the tub and smile at her, "God you're the best."

She hands me a pink spoon and pulls out one for herself, "I know."

For the next hour I rant on and on about Connor and everything he said, Tori continues to eat her tub while making all kinds of factual expressions.

When I finish my ice cream tub is almost empty, Tori takes a deep breath and speaks. "Honestly, I think it takes a lot of courage to come and tell you. I witnessed him cheating and I told him to tell you, he didn't deny it and he didn't fight with me about having to tell you. I planned to go with him, but he went by himself. I really do think he cares about you Kat- a lot. I'm not saying to take him back, but still. Just think about it, ok?"

I nod at her.

It did take a lot of courage for him to tell me what he did, yet it took a lot of guts to cheat.

Instead of countering her inspiring speech, I reply with "I think I'm gonna need more ice cream and tissues."
