Let You Down | Part Six

—

You tried for weeks to forget anything that happened with Billy. To try and continue your life normally, but the fact that you had cheated on Mike was eating you alive.

Whether you two were distant or not, you were together. It was wrong of you to do that to him.

Billy had come up to you earlier in the day.

"Y/n, either you tell him or I will." He threatened. He had thought that you would've left Mike from the very first kiss you two shared, but you didn't. So, Billy was becoming very frustrated.

"What? No! I'm not going to tell him, Billy. I'm happy with Mike, so leave me alone."

Billy looked at you for a second. He was chewing on the inside of his cheek, hoping you'd change your answer, but you didn't. "You know what? Fine. Don't come looking for me again. Don't even dare turn my way, got it? Have fun with your loser of a boyfriend," he spit. He crushed the cigarette he had in his mouth right in front of you before walking away. You sighed. It was what you had to do.

You were extremely distracted in class. Billy was obviously never going to talk to you again, and if you told Mike neither would he. Yet, you wanted to tell him. You couldn't hold it in any longer.

Right after the class ended, Mike walked up to you. You gave him a small smile before he wrapped his arms around your shoulder.

The rhythm of your heart was getting louder and louder with every step you took.

"Mike! I have to tell you something," you blurted. Mike had a puzzled look on his face when he turned to look at you.

"What is it?" He asked with his hands on your waist.

"I—I. Mike I—" you looked at the boy you cared for. It was time. "I cheated on you, Mike. When you wouldn't talk to me, I cheated on you. I kissed someone else."

Instantly, he let go of you. You could see that he felt betrayed. Your heart broke at the sight of him, but it was the right thing to do.

"With who? Why?" He whispered. There were tears forming in his eyes. You rarely saw Mike cry, so you knew this truly affected him.

You were afraid to say his name, "Billy."

"You cheated . . . you cheated on me with him? What the actual hell, y/n? I mean I get it, we weren't in the best place, but you could've just broken up with me! I can't believe you let him," he looked disgusted, "do anything to you. He's a disgusting person, y/n! But I guess that says a lot about you." He turned to walk in the opposite direction. You quickly ran and stopped in front of him. You placed your hand on his chest.

He grabbed your wrist gently and removed it.

"I don't even want to look at you. I'll see you around."

Like you had thought, you had no one now. You were alone.
