"You're poison. I'm addicted."
(continued from last chapter)

I look at Conner with an open mouth. "Are you serious!" I shout a little louder then i intended. "I know. He's such a-" Conner was saying, but I cut him off. I smacked my hands on the table and stood up. I take a deep breathe and walk over to Hayden.

I tap his shoulder. "Hayden?" I say a bit mad. He turns around and looks me straight in the eye. "A-Annie?" He stutters. "That's my name." I say pissed. "What are you doing here? I thought you left?" He said hesitating. "Yeah, I did. So you decided to tell me how much you love me, and after I leave the school, you start acting different and date the person that caused me pain. Wow. Such a great friend Hayden. I thought we had something." I finish off on the verge of tears, but I hold them back. He looks at me blankly. I storm back into my seat and put my head down.

"Annie?" Conner says softly. "Not now." I mumble with my head still down. Worst way to start off the week.

And you know what the weird part is?

I'm still in love.

-time skip to after school-

Sooooo glad schools over. It's been a total headache. I just want to go home and sleep. Unfortunately, I can't. My minds to busy on Hayden. Just, why? I thought we had a thing. We kissed like freaking 3 times! The worst part of it all is he's freaking dating liv! LIV! The one who caused me pain. Does this kid have issues?

"Annie," I hear a familiar, unwanted voice. Hayden. I turn around to face him. "It's Julianna to you." I said with a little attitude. "Julianna, can we talk about this?" He asked. "Hayden, there's nothing to talk about." I said looking down a bit. "But Annie there is," he sounded hurt. "No. There actually isn't. You're dating liv! You've changed! I came back to school with high hopes to see my best friend. But apparently he's changed. For the worse." I said.

I let it all out. I took a deep breathe. "Julianna, do you even know why I changed?" He said. "Trust me. I know." I scoffed.

"Julianna, I changed because you weren't there. You were the only person that could keep me on the right track. Without you, I'm nothing. I started going bad after awhile you left. Something just took over me. Something that I've never felt before. It killed me not seeing your beautiful face everyday. It killed me not hearing your magical voice everyday. And you know what kills me most? You hating me. I loved you, I still have and I always will. I already broke up with liv. You're like, a light. Once you came back, you shone threw me and cleaned me up. You brought the bright side of me again. I promise I'll change. I'll change for you."

My world stopped. I just stood there, with mixed emotions. Emotions one can not explain through words, but explain through movements.

And that's what I did.

I hugged him and cried in his arms.

He hugged me back and comforted me by rubbing my back. We just stood there for a few minutes just me crying in his arms. Not caring if people saw us. It was just me and him. But I pulled away from the hug and wiped my face.

"Change. And I'll be waiting."

And with that, I left.
