Betrayed - Bryles

What The.... ?

Briar :

I'm walking home with Myles but We're not alone.

He's surrounded by at least a dozen girls.

Each clamouring for his attention.

I try not to look disappointed.

Three weeks of dating and the girls can't get enough of him.

Especially Logan who goes to my drama classes.

"Bye Myles," I say, heading up my drive.

He kisses me while his groupies look on jealousy.

As I wave to him, Logan latches onto his arm and smirks at me.

Ugh.

Get a grip.

She's always had a bit of a thing for Myles but he says he doesn't like her.

At least, I hope he doesn't.

THE NEXT DAY

I'm walking in but Sage looks at me horrified.

What?

"Hey," I say. "What's up-"

Oh god.

No.

No no no no no.

Logan.

Logan was the only one with access to those pictures.

She's the creative genius at drama.

It's not what it looks like.

It's really not.

This was a poster advertising our drama production of a romance.

But it's been COMPLETELY taken out of context.

I fall onto Sage who hugs me tight.

People around me glare and mutter.

Myles is coming through the crowd.

Myles!!

Oh no, he's seen.

"What is this?!" he yells, his voice cracking with emotion.

"Myles, it's not-" I stammer, breaking down.

"You cheated on me!! How could you?! We're done." and he leaves.

I sink to the floor sobbing, until my mum comes to pick me up.

Later that evening, a notification pings through on my phone.

Th

My new girlfriend. My one and only ❤️💜💙

Again, I break down sobbing.

That's it.

If he won't believe me, I'll just leave.

I grab my coat and slam the front door loudly.
