Nova's POV:
I just stood there, frozen. I felt tears start to form my in my eyes. How could he say he loved me while over here eating another girls face? I didn't know what to do. Why would he do that?
I just stood there. Then I saw Payton turn his head to look at me. He immediately pulled away and his face went pale.
"Why?" I asked in a soft whisper as my voice cracked and a tear went down my face.
"Nova-" Payton said walking towards me. I still didn't move. I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
"It's not what it looks like" he said placing his hands on my shoulders. "It's exactly what it looks like" I snapped shoving his hands off my shoulders.
I turn around and walked back down the stairs.
"Nova com-" He started following me. "Just leave me alone" I said as a river of tears rolled down my face. I opened the door and walked out.
I walked down his driveway and along the sidewalk. I didn't know where I was going. I don't know my way around this place but oh well.
Now what do I do? My phone kept going off from texts and calls from Payton. I just turned my ringer off.
I continued crying and walking along the sidewalk for like 30 minutes until I eventually found a small park. No one was there so I continued and sat on the swings.
I just got cheated on. He used to tell me how bad it was to get cheated on, but yet he cheated on me. And yeah he was right, it hurts like hell.
Was I really just not good enough? Was he just lying to me every time he complemented me? Yeah, he was.
I was the one who would always criticize myself and he would be the one to tell me I was wrong, that I was perfect. Im so stupid for believing him.
You know what sucks? I actually believed him. I believed that I was worth something. But you know how that ended up? Turns out I wasn't enough for him. Turns out he needed more that just me.
He told me he loved me. He told me I meant something to him, to everyone. He told me he cared. He said he wouldn't ever let me down again, that he'll love me for the rest of his life. He promised.
He broke all those promises. My mom told me not to hurt him. Who's the hurt one? Me. I'm sitting here, alone on the swings at a random park balling my eyes out.
I remember when I would just see him and I could feel butterflies flying around in my stomach. Now it feels like all the butterflies just died and are at the bottom of my stomach.
You know that feeling when it's kinda hard to breathe? Like if you had your face in a pillow so it's harder to breathe.
I feel like that but just with my heart. It feels like someone just squeezed my heart and it sunk to the bottom of my stomach and is weighing it down.
I hate him.
I finally calmed down a bit so I pulled my phone out of my pocket. 9:57pm. Damn I've been outside crying for about 2 hours. There was also 78 text messages and 29 missed calls from Payton.
I decided to call Harper. It rung 3 times before she finally decided to pick up. "Hey, so how'd it go?" She asked excitedly.
"I just got my heart broken" I sobbed a little over a whisper. "What do you mean you just got your heart broken?" Harper asked concerned.
"He was making out with another girl" I said starting to cry all over again. "HE DID WHAT?!" Harper yelled through the phone.
I didn't respond to her I just kept sobbing. "I'm literally going to go to North Carolina and beat his ass" Harper said angrily.
