Stick Together

Jessalyn

The following Monday goes by quicker then I want and I frown when I leave the school grounds. I've been debating in my head whether I should break up with Jeremy or not.

He's been real distant since the dance and I can't help to think that it's something I did. I mean, I know I shouldn't feel that way but I do, and why? I love him. I know I shouldn't break up with him and consider giving him a second chance but this has been going on for almost a week, and I really can't handle it anymore.

I park outside of his house and look out of my window at it. I take in a deep breath and let it out. I can do this, I say to myself as I get out of my car and walk up to his front door.

I knock on the door and wind up standing outside for a few minutes and when I turn the knob, the door opens. That's odd, I think to myself as walk through the door into the living room.

"Hello?" I shout when I reach the hallway where the stairs are.

Nobody answers and I raise my eyebrows in confusion. Jeremy's car is here, so he has to be here. He's probably in his room. I shrug and walk up the stairs, straight to his room before opening the door and my eyes go wide as I take in whats displayed right in front of me.

My boyfriend is on his bed with a no shirt on and Ansley under him.

"Oh, sorry!" I shout causing them to look up at me but before I can see their reactions, I slam the door and hurriedly run down the stairs, ignoring Jeremy calling my name.

Even though that hurt me in every way possible, I don't let my tears fall as I run out of the hosue.

I feel a tug on my arm, "Baby, please."

"Don't call me that!" I turn around and shout at him.

He flinches back and I continue, "We're done! You should feel ashamed of yourself, you made me feel like shit because I thought this week when you weren't talking to me was because of me but obviously not."

"Please, don't end us-"

"I didn't have to, you already did." I spat at him and let a tear fall down my cheek as I angrily walk back to my car.

I slam the door behind me and press on the gas, as I just sit quietly in my seat, crying with the radio quietly playing in the background.

"I'm going to kill him!" Brook yells and I shush her since we're at Starbucks.

"You've said that already." I chuckle and take a sip of my frappe.

"I mean it, he's such an ass. " She says sitting back down and crossing her arms over her chest.

I giggle, "That he is, but I'm fine, really. It hurts but I'll get over it, he isn't worth it."

She nods, "That he isn't, but are you sure your okay?"

I nod, "Yeah, I'm good. to be honest, I love him and I always will but I was losing feelings for him when he was distant. He made me feel unloved and I didn't like it." I shrug.

She just nods her head in understanding and looks at mischievously, "So, how about Jane then?"

I take a sip of my frappe and give her a odd look, "Jane?"

"You and Shane." She states simply and I choke on my drink.

"What do you mean 'me and Shane'?" I say looking at her with raised eyebrows.

"It's obvious he has feelings for you and you have feelings for him." She simply shrugs.

"I do not have feelings for Shane, and Jeremy and I just broke up, I'm not ready for a relationship right now."
