I was running, running away from all my problems, questions running through my mind, asking myself why? Why did this happen? Why me? Those questions were running through my mind, I was running until I was stopped by you, you were there comforting me but I screamed.

*A few hours earlier*

"I swear babe, she was annoying me, I mean didn't she get the message?" Bella said talking to Stephan on FaceTime

"I mean she would always get on your nerves babe. Anyways, I miss you so much, I wish you were here with me right now." Stephan said

"Well! It's the first day of school and I happen to keep my attendance streak. I mean I can't believe your parents allowed you to go on a trip to Lake Como. Must be beautiful there."

"It is beautiful but you're more beautiful though."

"Bella!!! It's time for school." my mom screamed

I checked my watch and boy was it time to leave for school.

"Babe! I have to leave for school. Talk to you later?"

"Sure babe! Let me know how the first day of school went and say hi to my friends for me."

"I will!"

I dropped the call, got my backpack, went over to the kitchen, mom asked me questions, quickly said goodbye to her and ran out the door.

Western Hall High School, the high school where rich and preppy students like me goes to. I finally walked into the hallway, to my locker where my friends and I would always meet but sadly they weren't there, I looked around for a few minutes and opened my locker. I placed my bag into my locker, closed it only to realize that my jacket was stuck, I tried tugging it until I looked around and saw him.

He was with his friends, funny how I don't recognize him at all, thoughts were running through my mind like "is he new?", "why haven't I seen him before", my thoughts were interrupted and a voice was calling me.

"Hey! Are you alright?" and there he was, saying that to me

"Uhmm! No! I need your help?"

He then looked behind me, eyes wide open and said, "OMG! Did you get your period? Don't worry, I have a friend that's a girl so I know what to do!"

He then took of his black hoodie, placed it and I said, "what?!? I don't have my period okay! My jacket is stuck."

He looked behind me and saw that my jacket was stuck inside my locker, he laughed, wore his black hoodie and used his phone.

"What are you doing?" I asked

"Looking for a way to open your locker. What's your code?" He said shyly

"How can you not know how to open a locker? Code is 05-01-98. " I giggled while telling him

"There! I got it! All I have to do is turn it clockwise and counterclockwise again."

I smiled by how happy he was when he opened
my locker, I got my jacket and fixed it.

"Thank you for helping me."

"Anytime! Funny how I don't know your name."

"It's Isaac, Bella Nelson."

"How do you know my name?"

"Everyone around here knows you Bella." He laughed

"Huh! Okay! Well, will I see you around?"

"For sure, Bella, for sure." He said with that cute smirk on his face

He then walked back to his friends, while Sabrina and Luisa walked towards me.

"Sorry, we're late! Sabrina just had to stop by Starbucks for her Iced Latte."

I laughed as they walked ahead of me, I then closed my locker and headed to first period. I sat in between Sabrina and Luisa, writing some notes until Sabrina nudged me. I stopped and looked at her.

"What?" I said

"We're having free cut today. Sir Patrick can suck it."

"Suck what?" He then crossed his arms with furrowed eyebrows

"Uhm!" Luisa said

He then kicked us out of his class, I have never been embarrassed in my entire life, Sabrina lectured Luisa while I was thinking of him, was it wrong to think about someone else other than my boyfriend?

They then took me out of my daydreaming, I said goodbye to them, until I went to my second period, history, this class flew by way too quickly. It was finally lunch break, I went out of class and read Luisa's message.

Luisa : hey gurl! Meet us in the bathroom.

Ooooooh!!! It's tea time!

I then made my way to the bathroom, I saw them going back and forth on whose to tell me what they saw. I interrupted them and they both looked sad.

"What's wrong?!?"

"Bella, I think it's best if you checked your phone." Sabrina said

I checked my phone and their it was, an article of Stephan cheating on me with a hot model named Rosie. I then ran out of the bathroom, out the corridor, outside of school and into the picnic area, I went behind the garbage bin and cried. I cried, cried and cried until someone comforted me. I screamed, looked over to him and there he was again, he then comforted me, his hug was all I needed.

He then said, "shh! It's okay bella! he isn't worth it! You deserve way better than him."

His assurance was all I needed, I then wiped my tears, stood up and thanked him.

"You know I never asked for your last name." I said to him while smiling

"Why do you need to know?" He laughed

"Uhh! Cause you know my last name? Hahah"

"It's Peterson!"

"Peterson? As in the owner of Peterson Records?"

"Yes!" He smiled and looked at my phone

I then looked at my phone and saw his name, why? Why did he have to call me? He had the audacity to call me even after he cheated on me.

"I think you should take the call. Give him a piece of your mind." He adviced me

I then answered the call, his voice was shaking, he kept on explaining how wrong it felt and how sorry he was but I couldn't take it anymore.

"YOU KNOW WHAT STEPHAN!! YOU CAN KISS OUR FUTURE GOODBYE!! WE ARE DONE!! DON'T EVER SHOW YOUR FACE HERE AGAIN!!"

"Bella! wait-" I then dropped the call, took a deep breath and turned off my phone

"So? Wanna do something fun?"

"Sure!" I said while he held my hand and led me to his car, he drove us to downtown Los Angeles. He stopped over by a building and parked the car.

"Are we here?"

"Yup! We are."

He then got out of the car, opened the door for me and led me to a building. I was then suspicious to know who lived here so I asked.

"Who lives here?"

"A girl."
