Fake Love

Part 35

Briar POV

Myles starts the car and we start driving to school. He takes the long route there so that we have more time to talk, I guess.

"So you think I regret what happened last night?" Myles asks me.

"Don't you?" I ask, looking over at him.

"No, I don't regret it." He says. "Not exactly."

"Then why did you start acting all cold and mean again?" I ask him, confused.

"I felt bad." He mutters so quietly I can barely hear him.

"Why? There's nothing to feel bad about." I say.

"There is." He shakes his head. "I feel like I took advantage of you. You just came out of hospital. Not only that, I know that you have feeling for me. Feeling that I don't feel as strongly towards."

Ouch. That hurt a bit.

"Myles, I know you don't have feelings for me." I tell him. "I knew that from the moment you first talked to me in the cafeteria, you made it very clear."

"Still ... we've been getting closer lately and I have started having feelings for you. But like I said, they're not as strong as yours are for me." He says. "And I've done something terrible."

"What do you mean?" I ask him, curiously.

"The reason I was so cold last night is because I already have a girlfriend." He murmurs. "Dylan. I cheated on her."

WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL?
