the first suspicion (johannie)

the text

it was the next day at school and it was going
pretty normally. the only weird
thing was is that i didn't see asher.

he hadn't texted me where he would be which is quit odd but oh well. i bet he's sick
and forgot to text or something.

my idea is to buy him his favorite cookies
and get some balloons! then i'll stop over his house later and drop them off for a visit.

i was pretty happy today and i didn't know why. i was walking to lunch and i sat in my normal corner of the room. i looked over to the table next to me and saw johnny sitting there.

it looked like he was sitting with hayden and caden. the "cocky and annoying" boys at school. how does johnny like them? he's so different.

i started to eat and i felt something hit my head. i turned towards where i thought it was coming from which was towards hayden's table.

they kept pelting their food over at me which annoyed me a lot. the only person who didn't throw food was johnny. he kinda kept his head rested on his hands looking at his food.

i suddenly stood up and walked away thinking they couldn't ruin my great day now, and ahead.

...

it was after school and i started to walk home.

*honk honk*
"hey anns! need a ride?"
i heard from behind.
i turned to see the one and only johnny orlando.

"uh no i think i can walk."
i said as i turned my head back forward. he drove at my pace which was getting a bit annoying.

"awh come on leblanc. where do you live i'll take you there?"
he questioned talking a bit
louder so i can hear him.
i stopped walking
which caused him to stop his car.

"it's fine orlando. it's not to far up the road. i'll be okay"
i said in an aggravated tone. he sat in silence for a bit until he started talking.

"well alright then...text me if you need anything... also, can i have your snap?"
i rolled my eyes and gave it to him
"thanks anns!"
as he finished his sentence i watched him speed away in the distance. i sighed and continued walking home.

...

i put on comfortable shorts and a t-shirt. shocker, i'm the only one home AGAIN!

i mean i understand that my mother has to work away but it gets lonely sometimes. oh well.

i took my bike  to the closest store near me and buy some cookies and balloons along with the card. i wrote a cute little message with the store clerks pen before i left. it read...

dear asher (the best boyfriend in the world),

hello!!! i hope when you saw this you were surprised! anyway whatever it is that is making you miss school, i hope you overcome it and beat it up! you're amazing and i miss you so much! love you ashie!! ♡

love,
annie (the best girlfriend in the world)

right after that i rode over to ashers.

...

his house wasn't too far away from mine so i just pedaled along. once i got there i decided to knock and then run to the side of the house.

after a few moments, no one answered. i tried again. with a huge smile on my face i ran back to the side of the house and hid.

no one answer. hm, that's strange. i tired opening the door and it swung open. now i'm getting a little nervous.

"hello?"
i said loudly and heard my voice echo through out his big house.
"asherrrrr. it's me, annie!"
still no response.

i stood still for a good ten seconds. then i heard his tv playing from his room. a smile appeared on my face as i then ran upstairs. i swung to door open with a huge smile!

"surpri-!"
i dropped everything. the ballon went flying to the ceiling, the cookies and card hit the floor. my mouth opened a bit as i stood there watching, watching what i was never expecting.

asher had no shirt on while his arm was around what looked like kenzie under the covers. her face was snuggled into his chest and then he shot up opening his eyes.

"annie i can explain."
he said as his face became worried.
i just stood there watching with my mouth still hung open a bit.

"baby come lay back down."
kenzie said groaning while pulling his arm.
he stood staring at me.
that's when i ran out.

i ran to my bike and sped home. i didn't cry. i never did. i had no emotion. just a straight face racing home. i got to my house and went to my room.

one i got there i laid on the bed lifeless, staring at my ceiling. i grabbed my phone and texted johnny.

annie: help me johnny. something terrible
has happened.

johnny: what is it anns!?

annie:  i've been cheated on.
seen

typing...

as soon as i sent that text i lost it. everything hit me at once. i sat there and sobbed. this never happened before.

i didn't know what to do. tears were steaming down my face as i was crying. i stood up and i went lifeless. my face went blank. my vision went blurry. everything went black...

johnny: omg anns are you okay? know that i'm always here for you when you need it!
johnny: i'm going to kill that son of a bitch.
johnny: who'd he cheat on you with?
johnny: anns?
johnny: annie!?
johnny: ANNIE!?!
