Playing with Hearts 2

Chapter 19

Early enough in the morning I get a text from Daniel asking if I'd be able to pick him and his family up from the airport. Of course I couldn't say no , for instants he dropped me off and second of all his family is still amazing even though I haven't talked to them much after the break up. So I get dressed , ready for the day as I also have that doctors appointment and take my sisters car to the airport.

A- MORGAN!
M- ANNA!

I run up to Anna , she was always like a sister to me even though I had two biological sisters , I seemed to be closer to her. At some point , it seemed like Anna was more upset about the break up between Daniel and I than either of us were and at one stage she tried getting me to date Tyler - their older brother just so we could be sisters in law.

Da- glad to see that you are happy to see us!
M- ha ha well I'm REALLY glad to see Anna.
K- what about me?
M- aah!

I walk up to Daniel's parents and hug them. Even though I live in the same city as them , I haven't seen them other than one time when I first moved to LA , five months ago.

K- we missed you Morgan
M- I've missed you both too

I look at Daniel , he is staring at us with a smile. When he notices me , he looks away and take Justin's hand leading the way to the car park. Funny thing was , I am so used to Justin now that I didn't even realise he was there , he just was.
After I take them to their house , Daniel insists on coming with me to say hi to my parents.

M- I won't be able to drive you back
Da- don't worry I'll walk
M- still
Da- what do you have against me seeing your parents?
M- um..well

My parents still love Daniel but they are still mad at him for how he broke up with me and how he left me broken.

Da- come on!
M- fine!

So that's what we do , we drive together back to my house.

Da- so any plans?
M- I have a doctors appointment
Da- something wrong?
M- no, just a check up.
Da- here want to make a quick stop?
M- where?
Da- I know a place

He smirks and gives me directions to the place he knows but turns out I am way too familiar with the road there because I've spent four years going there- our high school.

M- what are we doing here?
Da- come on!

He smiles and hops out of the car running around to my door and opening it for me. He takes my hands and leads me to the bleachers , he climbs the steps and finally sits down at the top- our second favourite place.

Da- can I please talk about Justin?
M- daniel... you know that I don't want to hear it.
Da- but it's not what you think!
M- WHAT I think?

My voice goes loud but I quiet down straight away.

M- what I think? You had a child who is almost three years old and we broke up three years ago. You said you never cheated on me and honestly I believed you but this just doesn't add up , okay? And I've been hurt too much by you , I don't even know why I'm here right now , in the end you and me aren't meant to be and we both know it.
Da- Morgan...
M- no Daniel, we used to be so happy coming here after school , during lunch just hanging out but who would have thought that a year into college you would dump me to get with other girls.
Da- you know that's not why I...
M- really? Jonah and Gabbie didn't mind the distance , look at them nearly five years together, Corbyn and Christina didn't mind the distance but for you it was a problem

He looks down for a moment but looks back at me once again.

Da- Okay fine! I broke up with you because fame took over my common sense , suddenly I started getting more attention from different girls and I enjoyed that but I knew I could never do anything with them because I was tied down..
M- tied down!

I stand up to leave , not wanting to listen to this anymore but he grabs my arm and pulls me back.

Da- yes because I never wanted to hurt you so I would never cheat and I didn't but one time...
M- what?
Da- um..I nearly did. I was drunk , it was after our show in Texas and well there was this girl but I came to my sense before anything happened , of course Jonah saw and was pretty pissed at me , he even broke the table then and he was on about me telling you but I didn't want anymore slip ups that could hurt you even more so I decided it was for the better , to break it up.

Tears started coming to my eyes. Jonah tried warning me before the break up that Daniel changed and all but I couldn't see it , now I know what he was talking about , Daniel was having slip ups.

Da- but I never cheated, trust me.
M- did you kiss another girl?
Da- once... it was that girl Jonah saw me with
M- so you did cheat!
Da- I ... no ...

I stand up , this time managing to escape his hold and rush down the steps, I don't know why but it hurt listening to him talk about it , let alone actually finding out he kinda sorta cheated and my dear brother knew about it.

Da- Morgan!

He runs after me , shouting my name , catching attention of the football team who's at practice right now. When I reach my car I stop and look at him.

M- my house is only a few miles from here , I'm sure you can walk.
Da- Morgan...
M- I have an appointment in five minutes

I get in the car and drive off , when I reach the hospital car park , I just sit there for a few minutes crying. It's ironic , he didn't want to hurt me so he broke up with me yet he hurt me worse than he ever could.
