I didn't know I was crying until I felt tears run down my cheeks. I didn't make any noise. I just stared at the spot where he had been.

"Come on." Aidens voice whispered behind me. I felt his arm wrap around me shoulders as he walked me forward. As I looked up, I saw Tori, she was staring at me, her face white.

"I hope your happy now, you got your payback didn't you?" Aiden hissed to her as we passed. She didn't say anything.

As soon as we entered the girls toilets, it was then that I sobbed. I left out the sounded that shook my body so hard that sometimes it hurt and Aiden held me all the time.

Chapter 22

"you can't let her win this." Aiden's voice murmured into my ear. I gazed up at him confused.

"she's winning, your doing exactly what she wanted to do,"

"yeah, but...I don't care...I don't care what she's done, it doesn't change the fact that I've lost my life time friend, sure she helped it but I deserved this..." I trailed off miserably, I was right, I deserved this, after how I had treated Tori, she was just upset.

"so your willing to forgive her?" Aiden asked.

"of course, she's one of my best friends, I'm not losing both of them, plus, we're equal now. I saw the look on her face as we passed, she felt guilty."

I felt Aiden shake his head. I couldn't see because of all the places we could have been, we were on the toilet stall floor, I was leaning against his chest as he leant against the stall wall. It wasn't exactly comfortable but it was the best place to hide, and anyway, I was too upset to come out.

"look honey, I know your upset, your grieving I guess but you've done enough crying over him, in some thought I guess...i guess you don't deserve him, he shouldn't have shouted at you like that and he should have trusted you, not believe what Tori said straight off. If I had known she would tell him that then I wouldn't let her see him, heck, I barely knew about your argument with her." Aiden sighed stroking my hair, It was comforting while everything turned out in my head.

"what do you mean? Of course I deserved that, I shouldn't have really gone to Cole in the first place, he's like Sages enemy."

"you were too upset to even think about that," he murmured.

I shrugged, "still."

We sat there in silence for a bit until Aiden breathed in a huge sigh.

"you know what I think?" he said, pausing to sit up a bit, I sat away from him and sat on the opposite toilet wall.

"what?" I asked.

"I think you shouldn't let him get to you, he'll expect you to come crying to him begging for forgiveness, you shouldn't do that, instead act as if everything's fine, in fact, act as if everything's perfect, heck, start a new life, you don't need them anymore, make new friends, get a different boyfriend - and not Cole - think of it as in moving on. You don't need them. I'll be there every step of the way."

I stared at Aiden with wide eyes. He couldn't be serious. "but-"

"no buts, I dare you."

I glared at him. "you think that's going to solve everything? Running away from my problems? Sage is my most closest friend to me, he knows me better that myself. I wouldn't be able to do it. And Tori, she's my most greatest friend, she's ben through everything, you can't tell me that I should just drop them. Just like that? Its impossible." I crossed my arms over my chest, pleased with my response.
