[ Misunderstood: Ch. 8 ]

The living room was empty.. but the sounds were louder now. I slowly made my way to the back of the house, towards Jack's bedroom. I opened the door. My hands were shaking, and I saw it.. the one thing I was praying wasn't the case. And there she was... Lucy.

"Jack?!" I yelled. He immediately looked at me and tumbled out of the bed.

"D?! What are you doing here?!" He asked, completely shocked.

"I-I was coming to tell you what my answer was... about yesterday, but it seems I took too long.. ONE day Avery, and you've already moved on... I can't believe you. I trusted you, and look where it got me." I was hurt. The one person I thought actually cared lied. Why did I trust him? Why did I tell him?

"W-what?! No! I-I" he tried to defend himself but I'd heard, and seen enough.

"Get back to your business Avery. It's not like you really cared anyway." I said to him, running out of the house. Lucy tried to pull him back but he threw shorts on, running after me.

He was too late. I was gone, driving back to my apartment. I was so glad he didn't know where I lived. Tears made salty tracks down my cheeks as I drove.

When I got home, I threw myself onto my bed, bawling my eyes out.

My phone dinged with a text from Jack.. that asshole! He played with my feelings. At least my ex-boyfriend had stayed true to me. Then Daniel texted me.

Daniel🌀
Hey D, whatcha up to?

D
Oh just wondering what I did to deserve this. Nothing too serious.

Daniel🌀
What?! What happened?!

D
Jack happened. He asked me out yesterday and I went to his house today to tell him my answer and I find him sleeping with a girl.

Lucy nonetheless.

Daniel🌀
Oh god D, I'm coming over now..

D
Alright, whatever.

Daniel was the only one who knew where I lived... he had come over before to work on a project with me.

The doorbell rang 15 minutes later. I opened it to find a worried looking Daniel in front of me. His hair was messy and he wasn't wearing a shirt.. oh god... He engulfed me in a hug, "D, how are you feeling?!"

"Betrayed. Hurt. But I'm fine... I feel like that all the time." I replied.

"C'mon.. let's go sit on the couch and watch TV or something." Daniel said.

I just shrugged, "Alright, I have some movies."

He nodded, "That's fine." Daniel sat down on the couch and I went over to the entertainment center. I opened up the doors to my TV, and as I was looking through my CD's, I felt a hand touch the top of my back.

It sent chills down my spine; he was touching my tattoo. "I didn't know you had a tattoo.." he mumbled quietly.

I fumbled with my words, "A-a lot of people don't. They never care to find out.." I turned to look at him and he smiled down at me. Why?! Why does every boy at our school have to have that smile?!

I felt a slight blush rising to my cheeks and I looked down. He wrapped his arms around me and I took in his scent... it was calming. We stayed like that for a while, but I finally broke away, going back look through movies.

I finally found one. A comedy, because I could use a laugh. I put it in and then sat next to Daniel, leaning my head on his shoulder.

I guess I fell asleep because I woke up later that day with Daniel's head resting on mine.He was asleep. I sighed, tapping Daniel's shoulder lightly. His eyes opened slowly, revealing bright blue iris's.

Then I looked at my phone.
