Lily
Nothing,
I mean, nothing,
hurts more than being cheated on.
But I should've known, I signed up for this.
For no reason! He hasn't worked on the case, even though he says he is, he hasn't! And it makes me angrier than ever.
At this point, I wanna break up our fake relationship as he doesn't care! But I do... I've always cared about Gunner! But he doesn't.
He's never cared about me or my feelings.
Sighing, I sit down on the swing, pulling out my phone as my legs slowly swing.
"OH CRAP! WATCH OUT!" I look up at see a football speeding my way. I squeal and jump off of the swing, luckily it flies past me. "So sorry!!"
"You're fine" I chuckle and brush the wood chips off me. I then look up at him to see him blushing. "What?"
"You're just... really pretty" he nervously rubs the back of his neck.
I gasp and blush. "Thank you! You're cute too"
He's a short guy, a little taller than me, with light brown hair and bright blue eyes.
"I'm Duke!" he smiles.
"Lily!" I exclaim and he tilts his head.
"Are you Samuel and Brianna Grace's daughter?" he asks.
"I am" I frown, thinking about my parents. "Do you know them?"
"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to bring memories up... but yes! My dad was coworkers with your dad!! My dad always said how all he talked about was his daughter" he says with a little smile.
Tears fill my eyes. "I miss him"
"So sorry for bringing it up" he hugs me.
"No no, I love talking about my family" I wrap my arms around him. "You're really sweet, Duke"
He pulls back. "You're really nice" he places his hand on my arm. "Do you have a boyfriend?"
I smile. "No"
"Can I get your number?" he asks nervously.
I chuckle and nod, preparing to give him my number as he pulls out his phone.

I walk into the house with a huge smile on my face that I can't get rid of.
Of course until a half naked girl runs past me.
"What are you doing home so early?!" Gunner pants.
"Had nowhere else to go, rather than home" I clench my jaw and with my luck, my phone rings.
"Who's that? We all know you don't have any friends" he crosses his arms and I gasp. "I didn't mean it like that!"
I scoff and pull my phone out.
Duke.
I smile.
"Nobody" I say.
"Why so smiley?" he snatched my phone out of my hand. "Duke? The fuck is that? A dog?"
"My new friend!" I take my phone back and answer. "Hey!"
"Hey! I wanted to see if you'd maybe like to hangout tomorrow? I can't at my house since the apartment complex is renovating" he laughs on the other end.
