Chapter 27

Before I begin, thank you all so much for 10K views. The fact that you guys still read this and love this so much means the world to me. This chapter is dedicated to Lexi, happy birthday dude!! p.s. I'll work on my updates I swear

As I walk in the halls with Drew's hand in mine I can't help but think about...last night. I can tell Drew knows I'm nervous to talk about it, and he's giving me space to think. I don't know, it was just such a big commitment in a way, and I'm a little overwhelmed. I don't regret a thing though, don't get me wrong. I'm scared Drew thinks I regret what happened, but if he does, then he doesn't show it.

We walk into lunch together, and Dakota's staring at me. Is she just being weird or is it written on my forehead that I'm no longer a virgin?

"What are you staring at?" I laugh, and Drew just glances at me.

Is everyone acting weird today?

"You just look really happy."

"Do I always walk around depressed?" I shake it off, because I can tell Drew's smirking.

"We'll talk later." She grins.

"I'll be right back." Drew announces, and heads to some jock table.

"For now I have to ask, have you heard what's going around?" Dakota whispers.

"No, what's going on?"

"Stacey's been saying that Drew has a thing for her even though he's with you. Of course I think it's a bunch of bullshit, but I thought I'd let you know. I think Drew knows too, he's talking to her right now." Stacey nods in Drew's direction.

When I look, he's obviously yelling at her. She's twirling a blonde piece of hair around her finger and lightly punching his shoulder.

No one touches my boy.

Then something happens. Something that flips and something that shoots pain straight to my heart. Something that makes my stomach and burns my eyes instantly.

He kisses her.

Everything's dizzy, and I can barely see anymore. I hear Dakota gasp, and my backpack fall to the floor. I think I make my way out the lunch room, but I can't see. I'm pushing past all these people and I just can't stop crying. I gave him everything I had, why would he kiss her? He even looked angry at her, why do this to me?

I can't breathe. I open a door that leads outside and I can't stop crying. I fall on the ground and lay on the grass hyperventilating. This can't be happening. I'm crying loudly, but I don't care. The only thing I can really hear is the sound of my heart splitting in two. He's the love of my life... Everything felt right with him. Why does everything have to be so wrong right now?

"Allison, are you alright?" I hear someone ask. I can't tell who. I just cry.

"God Ally, what did he do to you now?"

I feel someone pick me up, and I just close my eyes. If they called me Ally then they know who I am. I could care less about what happens to me right now. I just want to feel less pain.

When I wake up, I have a heavy feeling in my chest. I think it weighs seventy tons. My face hurts from all that crying, and I think I'll start crying again soon. Very soon.

I check my surroundings, and I'm on someone's couch.

"Hello?" I call out, and my voice cracks.

"Good, you're awake."

I look behind me and I see a boy who's in my writing class.

"Jason?" We talk a lot during class, but I didn't know he'd be the one to come to my rescue.

"Hey. I found you outside of school and you were...not yourself. So I took you to my house. I'm sorry, I just couldn't leave you there." He sits next to me.

God he's beautiful, but not like Drew. Drew is so much more...intense. Jason is sweet and kind, he wouldn't hurt a fly. Drew just has something about him that's just more everything.

Drew.

My lip quivers, but Jason stops me from crying.

"Hey stop, he's not worthy of your tears." He says softly and puts his arm around me.

The comforting gesture feels weird since it's not...him, but I welcome it anyways.

"He's not good for you Ally. I'm sorry he hurt you." Jason whispers painfully.

That's it, I can't hold it in. I basically welcome the tears and it shakes my entire being.

"I'll kill him Ally, I swear to God, I will kill him for doing this to you."

I just shake my head, even though what he did hurt me more than a bullet to my head, I wouldn't want anything happening to him. I still love him regardless of what he did.

And I hate myself for it.

How do I go back to school now? How am I supposed to see him?

"Where's my phone?" I manage to let out.

He points to the small table in front of me, and then walks out, giving me my space. I turn my phone on and I have twenty messages, and fifteen missed calls.

Dakota: "Shit Ally, you don't even know half of what really happened"
