Beth and I spent the entire day together. She pulled me out of the black void I fell into and made me smile again. It felt great to forget about reality for a while and be happy.
But happiness is temporary.
We were driving home singing to Wild Life by Jack and Jack when I heard my phone ring. Without looking at the ID, I answered it.
Stupid.
"Hello?" A manly voice said. I recognized this voice. It used to give me butterflies and made me smile whenever I heard it. And somehow, despite of everything that happened, I still felt butterflies swarming in my stomach.
"Carter." I said seriously. Beth gaped at me and told me to put it on loudspeaker.
"Blair please hear me out, I'm really sorry for everything." He said. I glanced at Beth, who looked unamused.
"She answered?" I heard a voice shout from the background at the other side of the line. My head heated up and I felt my fist clench.
"You're with Jessica?" I said loudly. "Jesus Christ man! What are you doing now huh? Getting some?"
"No Blair it isn't what you think!" He said.
"After everything you've done you're still with her?? Instead of coming to apologize to me in person you decide to stick with her huh? Both of you are such cowards!" I screamed. Beth held my shoulders tightly, silently telling me to calm down.
"Blair listen!" Jessica shouted.
"No you listen." I said calmly. "Not only did you two hurt me but you hurt Dylan as well. Jessica you knew he liked you. You knew he was interested in you! And what did you do? You went ahead and stole my guy."
"Your guy? As if you were together!" She shot back.
"You know what? You're right. He was never mine to begin with. You can have him. You rats should be perfect for each other." I spat. "Dylan doesnt deserve you anyway. He should've liked someone better." I snapped.
"He... he said he liked me?" Jessica stammered. Right them, I knew guilt had shot her straight in the heart.
"No shit sherlock." I said sarcastically. "You know what? I'm done. Come talk to me when you get some balls." I said and hung up. I slumped in my seat and let my head rest on my hand.
God was it even possible to feel so much emotions at the same time? Sadness filled my eyes as the tears began to roll down my cheeks, yet anger bubbled up inside of me and confusion possessed my mind. Why did all these things have to happen to me? What did I do to deserve this?
I felt Beth reach for my shoulder and rub my back softly. She pulled me into a long hug as I cried on her shoulder. We both got out of her car and we both walked to her door. I shook my head and pulled away.
"I need to be alone." I said to her and walked away to my house.
"Blair its dark! Its dangerous!" I heard her shout but I kept walking. I felt small drops of rain land on my head and soon it started raining hard.
It was as if the clouds were crying with me.
It was raining so hard and I was almost home when the most unexpected thing happened.
I crossed the street and suddenly I saw a bright light growing, coming towards me. I felt a sharp pain in my stomach and before I knew it, I was lying on the cold hard floor. I felt blood ooze out of me and my head was throbbing like never before.
There were people running to me and I heard muffled screams. Someone was looking me straight in the eye screaming my name, but I felt so numb I couldn't reply.
Was this it? Was this my time? My time to leave? So many feelings and thoughts flashed through my mind as I began to lose consciousness. I remembered my parents, and how they cared for me all the time. I remembered Beth and Jessica, and how they always seemed to make me laugh.
Then his face came into my mind. His beautiful face consuming my thoughts. His laugh was echoing through my ears and I couldn't make it stop. I immediately felt guilt and regret consume me. I should've been less harsh on him. I should've told him I loved him.
Then everything went black.
