CHAPTER 19!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DREW'S POV

The second I kicked Tiffany out the window, I slammed it shut and grabbed my towel, embarrassed that she saw me naked and ran out of the door after Amy, I ran out of my room and down the stairs only to be stopped by my mom. I could understand the shocked look on her face considering her son was running out of the house in only a towel.

"Drew, what the hell are you doing?" she almost yelled

"Mom, please not now, I'll explain later" I said and pushed past her and ran out the front door. I saw her car pulling out of my driveway and ran over to it. I

chased her car for about two blocks before giving up and turning back to go home. I can't imagine how hurt she must feel right now considering she saw

Tiffany on top of me kissing me. I started to cry, not because I felt bad but because I probably just lost the love of my life, well I did feel bad. I cried all the way

back home and slammed the door when I got in. just when I was about to run upstairs and lock myself in my room, my mom stopped me.

"What was that all about? And why is your face all red?"

"I've been crying mom"

"What? Why? What happened?"

"I just lost Amy. Tiffany snuck into my room and kissed me. Amy walked in when she pounced on me."

"Tiffany? The brat you dated like two years ago?"

"Yes, and now Amy is going to blame all of this on me. Do you remember that locket I gave her?"

"Yes. Why?"

"Well, a few days ago, Tiffany stole it and threw it down the drain in the girl's locker room, and then Amy got suspended because she punched Tiffany and broke her nose."

"Oh, that poor girl, I feel so sorry for her, I can't imagine the pain she's going through" she said shaking her head

"What about me, I just lost the love of my life" I said, a tear running down my cheek

"Oh, my poor baby, come here" she said pulling me into a hug. "I know how much it hurts to lose someone you love but time will heal" she said stroking my

hair

"But I don't want to let go mom, this isn't my fault, I love her, I want her back, I didn't do anything, I just hope she'll listen to me"

"I don't know sweetie you never know, you'll just have to see"

I looked her and knew she was right. There was nothing I could do but hope that she would listen to me.

"Now, go get dressed and ready for school"

I broke out of her hug and went up to my room to put some clothes on. I put on some jeans and a v-neck shirt. I grabbed my backpack and ran out the door

mumbling bye to my mom. I got in my car and drove to school. The rest of the day was a living hell without Amy there. All day, I slumped around and avoided

Kyle and Chase, a few times they tried to come up to me but I just ignored them. When I got home locked myself in my room and did my homework. All day I

had been texting Amy trying to explain what happened but she never replied to any of them, I was pretty sure I send around forty. When it was time to go to

bed I got my pajamas on and climbed into bed. After a while, I fell asleep. All night I was tossing and turning and finally woke up at about two, I decided to go to the beach considering I always used to go there with Amy. I got up out of bed and walked downstairs. I left the house and walked the short walk over to the beach. As I got closer, I could see a figure standing on the beach. Who would be up this late besides my crazy ass? As I got closer I could tell it was a girl, a girl with strawberry blonde hair. That had to be my cherry, who else would it be? I started to run; this could be the perfect time to talk to her. I called out her name but she didn't answer. I started to run faster and called louder. She turned around. She was wearing pajama shorts and a tank top. I ran over to her and kissed her hard on the lips. She would probably shove me off but I didn't care, I needed her close to me. I hoped she didn't blame all of this on me. It would break my heart if I lost her forever. She pushed me away.

"Drew, keep your filthy lips to yourself, I don't want you here, and I don't want you with me"

The sound of those words coming out of her mouth broke me. "Amy, I'm so sorry" I said and took her hands. I wanted to explain this to her but all I could do

now was apologize and hope she would understand. She pulled away.

"No you're not Drew, if you were sorry you wouldn't have hurt me like that again, if you really felt that way you could have me, I would have understood, instead

of me walking into your room finding out the hard way, sure it would have hurt but this hurt more, you broke my heart, twice, and I can't let that happen again"

she started to walk away but I wouldn't let that happen, she needed to know the truth.

"Amy please let me explain..." she cut me off

"Drew, I think I've seen and heard enough"

"Please Amy, I will do anything, just let me explain" she wasn't listening the way I hoped she would

"I don't want you to do anything for me Drew, I gave you two chances and you broke that both, give me one reason why I should another, so you can break my

heart a third time? I don't think so, I've been through enough pain Drew, I'm not going to lie to you, I love you but obviously you don't love me. You don't love

me enough to talk to me about things. For the last few weeks you've had a weird look on your face whenever Tiffany comes."

She wasn't listening, I would never break her heart again, the first time I was so stupid but this time it wasn't my fault and she wasn't letting me explain, I

loved her with all of my heart. The only reason I had a weird look on my face was because I didn't want to lose Amy and Tiffany never seemed to give up. I

was concerned about her, I didn't want Tiffany to hurt her but I was too late.

"How long have you been seeing her? How long have you been keeping things from me? How long have you been cheating on me? Well?"

I had never been seeing her; not when I was with Amy and I would never keep things from Amy, I loved her, trust was something we had established but

obviously she didn't believe that any more I would never, ever cheat on her.

"Drew, I was and am always honest to you, you were my best friend, my boyfriend, the man I love but obviously that wasn't enough for you. Obviously you didn't trust me as a friend, as a girlfriend, as a loved one."

Of course that was enough that was enough for me, it was more than enough, and I always had and always will trust her no matter what happens.

"I've had enough Drew and I can't take anymore. I've been used and played before and I won't go through it again. I thought you were better that that but I

guess I was wrong"

I clenched my fists as I thought of all of the other boys that had hurt her; I swore to myself I would never let that happen again. I felt bad, not for me but for her, I had let her down. She turned away and left, I wasn't going to stop her this time. I had failed. I had just lost the one most important thing in my life, my reason for living, forever. I was right. She did blame all of this shit on me. I was just going to have to think of another way to get her to listen.
