MADISON'S POV

I watches as the boys left, to go have a 'guys day' or whatever and sighed in content. I would definitely not be getting hurt today, unless it was my own fault.

I change into clothes, and put on no makeup because I don't really care. I slip on a beanie, and out the door to meet the girls in the kitchen.

"Mum, where are we going?" Lauren asks as we start walking down the street.

"Well, we're going to get out nails done, and then you'll see after that." she says as we pile into the nail salon and sit down, telling people what we want done on our nails. I'll admit, I've never had a girls day like this before.

Sure ive had girls days with Brianna, and a few before everything happened with Lacey, but nothing like an actual girls day out.

I end up getting converse nails, my pinky and middle finger black converse, and my ring and index red converse. My thumb is the star, from the brand 'AllStar' and they turn out really cool. I thank the lady, and meet up with the other girls that have finished, Karen, Mali, Joy, and Lauren.

They all have really cool nails, but most are popular styles right now.

"I love your nails Mali," I gush, looking at her pastel pink and blue Aztec nails.

"I love yours too, converse are my favorite brand of sneakers." she notes, as we wait for everyone to finish up, talking about anything and everything.

Eventually, we do pile out. But by then I'm in the middle of telling the, the story of James and Lacey and all of them.

"And then, she kisses him, in front of everybody. I end up running out, and of course it started raining on me, but I took off my heels and ran home, the boys didn't notice I was crying, because of the rain so I told them a lie. The next morning I burnt all of his things out back." they're shocked at the story.

"How could someone do that?" Lauren gasps.

"That is terrible!" and things like at come out of everybody's mouths, as we walk into a café mindlessly for lunch, and sit down looking over the menu. Just as I'm about to realize what café we're in, James happens to be our waiter. Just my luck, every time I'm here.

"J-James?" I squeak, my voice quiet and my face probably paling.

"Madison?" he looks, as the girls give him glares.

Okay, maybe if I would've payed attention to where we were going I could've composed myself incase this did happen, but I was talking to the girls, and finally getting to know them. I was having fun, but something always has to ruin my day, doesn't it?

"Maddie we could go-"

"No, um it's fine. I'm good, I'll have a water please?" I fake smile at the girls reassuringly, but they don't believe it for a second. But they nod and tell him their drinks politely, and as he comes back with them, and we give him our orders, he looks to me.

"I'll have the Chicken Parm." he smiles a little to himself at that, writing it down. He probably knew it was what I always ordered when I ate out, we did go out a few times. My heart pangs in my chest at the thought.

"Can I talk to you Mads?" I cringe at his nickname, but I get up anyways, slowly nodding and telling the girls I'll be right back.

He leads me outside, to where I waited for him for our first date when he was a few minutes late. I smile, but wipe it off my face.

I'm supposed to hate him, he was terrible. But I can't help but rem,ever the messages he sent me afterwards, and how torn he always looks around me and how he remembers the little things still, all the things that annoy me too.

"Listen Maddie, I'm so sorry about what happened. Let me explain." I nod, telling him to go on. "I only did it because when we first met, I didn't know you. I didn't exactly want to hurt anyone like that, but better someone I didn't know I figured, anything to make Lacey happy. As it went on, I tried to figure out a way to tell you, the guilt ate me alive. Every second of every day, I was falling for you even more, maybe I even fell in love with you, that might be it. I know we're young, but love exists in everyone. I know you probably hate me, and I'm really sorry but I thought lacey would ruin me if I didn't, so I went along and let the guilt kill me. I broke up with her after you stormed out, in front of everyone. I'm truly sorry Mads, and I understand if you don't forgive me." he looks down.

Did he really mean that?

How could I be sure?

He was really sweet, but that could've been an act. Something tells me that it wasn't, maybe it's the look in his eyes. Or how he never laughed or smirked. How he called and texted to make sure I was okay afterwards. How he always remembered the little things.

Whatever it is, I'm not taking him back. I can't trust him enough to do that, but maybe something else could happen.

"Look James, you really hurt me, you were my first kiss, first boyfriend. I spent most of my life so far in an orphanage and for you to do that hurt, you can't be fixed by the same person who broke you, maybe we could be friends or something, slowly. I'm sorry James." I explain and he nods, turning to go back inside.

"I'll see you around, yea?" I nod and wave as he walks back in. "One more thing," he runs back over to me, and kisses me.
