"Grant?!" I said staring at my boyfriend kissing some girl, that is not me.
"Presley, I can explain." He says pulling away from the blonde haired, boyfriend stealer. Who then ran like a coward.
"No need. I think I get the picture." I say walking away from the crime scene with tears in my eyes. I was so mad at him. He swore he would not be like the other guys. He swore he wouldn't hurt me. I guess I was lied to, yet again.
"Presley, wait! She came onto me." He said catching up to me and grabbing my wrist. Wriggling my wrist free I say,
"Yeah, that's exactly what the last guy said. Hope cheating on me was worth it." Turning back around I try to refrain from bursting into tears. My heart felt like it was going to explode.
"Fine! Walk away. See how I care. You were one of the worst girlfriends I've ever had, anyway." Grant spat back at me. When these words came out of his mouth the love drained from my heart and the tears dried from my eyes. The anger welled up inside of me. It was like this fire in me just ignited.
"Are you kidding me? You are such a jerk!" I turn back around and start angrily stomping towards him. "We dated for two years and you mean to tell me in those two years I was the worst? How dare you have the audacity to say such a thing!" I spat waltzing right up in his personal bubble. He was quite a bit taller than me but I did not care. I was furious.
"What? You were the worst. You would never do anything I wanted you to do-"
"That is because you always wanted to go to parties and you know I am not a party person." I fumed cutting him off. He continued,
"You never would hang out with me either. You just wanted to stay home and 'study.' Whatever that means?"
"You only ever wanted to hang out on school nights. When I had boatloads of homework. You were always busy on the weekends. If you really wanted to hang out with me you would have left even a little time out for me. I am starting to think you were the worst one in this relationship." I ranted.
"Well, at least I tried."
"When? When did you try Grant? Huh?" I search his green eyes for anything. A hint of anytime that he tried but he just looked at me cross. "As I thought. Goodbye Grant." I spoke before walking away.
"I thought you didn't like goodbyes." He said softly behind me. I look back for a split second and the Grant I used to know was gone. The happy, fiery, fierce Grant had vanished and his eyes only showed pain. I looked away as soon as I realized that I did not deserve love. I will only spend my life chasing after it but never have it. So, right then and there, I swore off love forever. I was done!
But what kind of story would this be if that lasted forever.
