Well I never thought you'd stay
That's okay
I hope he takes your filthy heart
And then he throws you away someday
Before you go, there's one thing you oughta know

I had just came in to tell the owner that I no longer wanted to work here. I'm embarrassed since I only worked here for one whole day, I can't be doing that, or else no one will hire me in the future.

I was scanning the isle for some snacks since we are having another girly night for Joy and plus she's going to update us about what the doctor said today at her first baby apportionment.

Regardless of whatever she decides to do, I know it'll be the best for her. I can't imagine the struggle she's having right now but I'm so proud of her for handling it as good as she did.

I'm counting down the days till when alley announces her.

I went to grab my favorite chips before someone else snatched them before I did and when I saw his face, I nearly barfed up the cheese pizza I had for lunch earlier.

I really dislike him, he can't seem to get the hint.

"Remember that night when you got drunk and we both ate two bags of these? That was fun, I miss those days." He frown.

Who the hell does he think he is? He cheated on me, I hope he can't drink me away. This was one thing I hated about Taylor, he thought he could fix everything even if it was his problem. He thought I should be okay with it and just because he says he's ready to move on and forget it, then I should too.

"I don't care, leave me alone." I demanded while grabbing a bag of Doritos and putting them in my cart.

I wonder what's Austin's favorite bag of chips is? if he even has a favorite.

I don't know what you call the thing between me and Austin, I just know that when I'm around him, things are fun and more better. I feel like a whole new person and I love that side of me. 

"Or when you sprung your ankle coming home from that one party and I basically carried you back and then tucked you into your bed. I think that was when I realized that I actually had real feelings for you." I couldn't help but laugh.

"I'm sure you did but that still didn't stop you from cheating on me Taylor and or let's not forget that our whole relationship was actually a lie. I can never forget about it." I rolled my eyes while moving on to the next isle, hoping he would get the hint.

"I do care about you now and I don't want you wasting your time with that lowlife Austin. I could see the casual one night only thing but now you've be hanging around him isn't like you Katie, you are actually better than that." Does he not realize that he's insulting me and I don't like that.

"We aren't doing anything. We are just friends." I huff.

"I know how you are Katie. You loved me in that short month and your going to end up falling in love with him too, I know it." I loved Taylor but I wasn't in love. I'm not saying I'm in love with Austin because I don't know him but when I am around him, the feeling is so different.

"I loved you but I wasn't in love. Those are two totally different things." I mutter before he grabs my wrist hard.

"You would be dumb to give me up for someone like him. You don't know all the dirty secrets him and his father has. He's a bad person Katie." I pulled my wrist away from him. I don't want to hear his bullshit. His father and Austin's father was partners, they both had shit going on.
