Broken heart

Chapter 8

I went to school the next day full of fear....but I knew that if I could make it through today, I could make it anywhere.

"Hey" I said to Tyler.

"Hey baby" he kissed me

That's a good start....

"What's up?" He asked.

"Just the usual" I said even though things were DEFINITELY not usual.

"Thats good I guess" he said.

"Yea" I shrugged.

We walked in silence.

"Wanna do something after school?" I asked.

"Mmmm.....I have a calculus homework to do after school but maybe tomorrow" he told me.

"Okay" I agreed.

He kissed me and went down the school hallway to class.

"Don't tell me you believe him" Troy hissed in my ear.

"What now?" I spun around to face him.

"I'm pretty sure 'calculus homework' is Emily's nick name and he's gonna do her instead" Troy said.

"He wouldn't" I turned back towards my class.

"Kayla, in trying to help you" Troy grabbed my arm.

"How? How exactly are you helping me?" I almost screamed.

"I'm just saying that you should open your eyes! I mean seriously, have you ever actually seen Tyler doing homework?" Troy said.

"No, but it doesn't mean that he's doing Emily" I said yanking my arm out of his grasp.

"Kayla, would you just listen to me? When we where together the other night I felt something towards you.....I don't know what it was but I've never felt that way before, and I just don't want to see you get hurt anymore" Troy explained.

"Fine! Show me actual proof that Tyler's doing Emily and I'll believe you" I said.

"Meet me at the front doors after school and I'll show you" Troy said.

"Fine" I huffed and walked off to my class.

I waited all day for someone to confront me about what Troy and I had done.

No one did so I concluded that nobody knew.

I met Troy at the front doors after school just like he told me.

"Well, now what?" I asked.

"Text him" Troy told me.

"And say what?" I asked.

"I don't know, he's your boyfriend" Troy said.

I didn't get out my phone.

Troy stared at me.

"Just show me the proof" I said.

"Ugh, okay fine, follow me" he told me.

I followed.

We snuck behind some bushes and waited.

"Tyler's truck right?" Troy asked.

"Yea, but I still don't understand" I said.

"Shh" he put his hand over my mouth.

There was laughter and it was getting closer.

"Tyler" I heard a girl laugh.

Please don't be Emily...

It was.

"Are we going to your house again?" She asked hanging on his arm.
