The bell had just rung. We were leaving second period. Blake followed me out pf the classroom. Here we go again...

"Zoe please, let's talk." He said as he grabbed my arm and turned me arpund to face him.

"You want to talk? Let's talk. It's not like I care about what you have to say, I have a boyfriend and he's amazing. I'm happy Blake. I let you go a long time ago." I said finally.

"I know Zoe... I know I hurt you but please let me explain." He said grabbing both of my hands.

"Let's not go there again please." I begged as I started walking away.

"Don't you get it Zoe? I love you. I want you." He said, causing me to stop. I turned around half way.

"But I don't want you. You need to understand it. I loved you once too Blake. A lot. It hurts me too, seeing you like this. This is not you. You haven't been yourself since that night." I said walking back towards him.

I got closer to him and grabbed his face between my hands.

"I need you to let this go. Let us go." I said to him as I dropped a tear.

"I love you." He said. I could tell he really did love me. He wasn't lying, but I couldn't help but remember that night. That picture playing in my brain. It burned me inside out.

"I loved you too. Not anymore." I said before leaving a kiss on his cheek and walking away to my next class.

Tears rolled down my cheeks as I made my way to my next class. The hallway got blurry as tears blinded my vision.

After a few seconds, I could see the door belonging to classroom I was headed. It got closer before I entered the classroom, spotting Zack as soon as I entered.

"What's wrong Zo?" He mouthed. I just shook my head.

"What's the matter?" He asked worried.

I stood up from my chair before walking up to the teacher's desk and asking for permission to leave the classroom for a few minutes, until I calm down.

"Of course Zoe, take all the time you need" the teacher said with a caring smile.

"Thank you" I said before leaving the classroom.

As soon as I got out of the classroom I felt how my body collapsed. I felt frozen. All I was able to do was hide my face between my hands. I felt uncapable of moving as the memories started to come back. The first time we kissed. The first time he said I love you. When he got suspended for hitting a classmate after he called me a slut. All the things he did for me, all the times he called at midnight just to remind me he loved me.

I thought it was going to be ok. I thought I would get passed all this, that I would get over Blake. I was certainly wrong.

"Zoe, tell me what happened." I heard a worried voice. Lexi.

"I... I just.. It's Blake. He loves me Lexi. I talked to him and I just... Don't know what to do anymore. I don't know what to think. I keep pushing forward but he keeps pulling me backwards." I said as more tears rolled down my cheeks. When did my life get so complicated? In what moment did my life fall apart?
