chapter 6: the elephant in the room

Baileys P.O.V

time skip a few days

it had been a few days since the incident with colby and it was tearing me apart. i haven't gotten any sleep, i haven't eaten anything, i haven't come out of my rom, and no one has talked to me. dont get me wrong they've tried, i just dont answer. i lay on my side with tears slowly sliding down my cheeks. "ok, were done with this shit bailey" jasmyn said entering my room and opening the curtains. i groaned in response. "no! bailey you are getting your ass up NOW" i turned over and faced the wall, pulling the blankets over my head "get out jasmyn" i spoke and it barely came out as a whisper. "the beast speaks!"cold spread through my body and gave me chills as the blankets were ripped off of me and thrown onto the ground. jasmyn grabbed me by the wrist and pulled me up ripping the comfort of the bed away from my body. "what im about to say is gonna hurt but it needs to be said okay?" when i didnt respond she began "this" she said gesturing around the room "is pathetic. he doesnt love you bailey! im sorry. i know it hurts but-" "no" my voice cracked "jasmyn you dont understand, and you probably never will. my heart is shredded without him" tears slid down my cheeks and i held sobs at the back of my throat, my knees struggled to keep me standing but i kept fighting "bailey you know what i meant-" "NO jasmyn i dont, he was my everything. he kept me steady when i was falling apart. he saved my life for fuck sake! he is everything to me jasmyn. everything. and im nothing to him." i was still standing but my legs were jello and i would fall at any second. "fuck bailey! get ahold of yourself!" she screamed at me before walking out of my bedroom slamming the door behind her.i fell to my knees sobbing.

minutes passed and i still was on the ground unable to get a grip. the door squeaked and i heard footsteps near me. i looked up through blurry eyes to see shea with a look of sorrow on her face "im so sorry bailey" she said sobbing as she got on the ground hugging me. we sat like that for who knows how long before she pulled away from me. "bailey he-" "shea, please dont. i know he doesnt love me. everyone has made that very clear to me. i know" she sighed "bailey please let me finish" i looked up at her to see her beautiful blue eyes filled with tears of her own, sorrow written so clearly in them "he loves you. he doesnt love me, i can tell. hes so in love with you bailey. when you were...... when you were gone he was vulnerable and i have so much love for him that i- i took advantage of that. bailey, now i realize that i dont love him that way. we have a strong bond but we could never ever be like that. he needs you. bailey im sorry for the pain ive caused. dont blame him please. i dont want to see you or him suffering for my mistakes." i coughed out a laugh. but it turned hysterical, and i couldn't stop. i held my stomach due to the cramp that was developing. shea looked at me with worried eyes. "he-" i couldn't finish before i began laughing again. when i finally got ahold of myself i began again "he- he doesnt love you. he chooses me o-over you! no offence but like your super pretty and he just-" i feel over sideways laying on the ground, rolling around unable to finish again. she layed next to me and began laughing too. we laughed hysterically but i dont even think she knew why we were laughing and i didnt know anymore either. everytime we would stop laughing we would look at each other and be hysterical again.

finally, we were able to regain our composure and we stood up wiping our faces and holding our sides. she looked at me with a now serious face "i really am sorry bailey" i nodded "i know" she nodded at me and we walked down stairs to hear loud sobs coming from the game room. we gave each other a look and sprinted down the stairs and into the gameroom. jasmyn and elton were standing up hugging across the room, his shirt clenched in her fists as she cried into his shirt, his hands rubbing her back as tears of his own rolled down his cheeks. "how could she? how could she!" jasmyn repeated, aaron sat on the couch silently crying, and corey and devyn were staring at me, crying as well. "oh bailey" devyn jumped up and ran to me engulfing me into a hug. katrina stood up and hugged me as well, but i couldnt find sam or colby anywhere. "it was her bailey" katrina sobbed into my hair as devyn stood next to me rubbing my back "what happend? it was who?" i asked confused. katrina leaned away from me and devyns hand stilled on my back. "you didnt hear" katrina asked her eyebrows scrunched in confusion, i shook my head "they found the shooter from the mall. it- uhh- it was amanda"
