Good Girls Love Bad Boys (Zayn Malik)

Chapter 45

Life

I was there, in the middle of the ocean, with nothing but myself, and my shred of dignity I had left. I was drowning, and kicking my feet up and down to keep me steady, but the waves were too big, too strong. Suddenly, there was a boat, big and orange.

I threw my desperate hands in the air, waving them and screaming for help, over and over again. The boat got closer, but not close enough. There was someone in the boat, him. So I started screaming louder, and trying to swim but I had no strength to swim against the current.

He looked at me, dead in the eye, and ignored me. How ? Why ? I kept trying to get his attention again, but someone else had it already. Her. And then, the last bit of dignity in my soul, spilled out of it, making me drown into the big blue ocean where I me and my Body would get lost and never remembered.

I sat up in my bed, drenched in sweat and tears. My head is just playing with me. I breathed for a few minutes, and tried to get rid of that image that was now tattooed to my eyelids. I sat there in silence, with my head in my hands, trying to forget it.

"Morning" Riley entered my room with a smile.

"Hi"

"Ready for forest today ?" He asked me.

"Kind of" he sat at the edge of my bed.

"So tell me, how does being in love feel ?" I asked him, trying to get my moods up.

"You've been in love"

"Yeah, but he never loved me back" he sighed and gave me a big-brother hug.

"What do you plan do with college ?"

"Certainly not studying here, I have to get away for a while I think" I have been thinking about a lot of places I could go.

"Study what ?"

"Either journalist or writer or wedding planner, haven't made my mind up yet"

"You would be the best writer" I smiled, he does know how to make you feel better. "I would read your books"

"Morning ladies, forest today remember ?" Rebecca entered the room and sat in my reading chair.

"Did you talk to your uncle ?"

"Yup, he said we could absolutely use it and have an awesome two weeks, but no fire or huge parties. It is big and smells like pepperment and there is a huge green lake right next to it" Riley turned to me as my annoying phone started ringing again.

"Hello ?" I said hoping it was someone who would cheer me up.

"Valerie ! This is Carly and Chloe, Happy late Birthday girl !"

"Hi girls, thank you so much" It was weird but comforting knowing that they still cared about me.

"You are welcome, so how are you ?"

"Not good, wait, do you two like hang out together now ?"

"Yes actually, we have a lot in common. What do you mean not good ?"

"Someone cheated on me" I rubbed the sides of my head to ease the tension there.

"Oh crap..." Said Carly, I recognized her voice for some reason.

"Umm, how was prom ?" I said trying to get out of the cheating conversation.

"It was kinda boring at first but then this girl named Amy called a friend of hers who is a DJ and yeah"
