I sit in my car and read the text over again, heart still hammering angrily. Over and over, I had tried to reach out to my boyfriend, to let him know I was someone safe he could trust and talk to. After all, that was key in a good relationship. And yet again, he had responded with 'I don't have anything I need to trust you with.'

Fake. That was a good word for him, I decide. I know about his rough home life, I understood him. And yet he refused to trust me, his girlfriend.

"Fine." I spit angrily. "Fine. If you're going to be fake, I can do that too."

And with that, I made the hasty, angry decision to match my boyfriend's fake personality. Maybe that would show him what it feels like to not be trusted.

A/N I apologize for grammar and spelling mistakes, first person isn't my favourite way to write, but I feel like it will relate to the songs better.  (I feel like this question might crop up sometime, so I'll just answer it now; no this isn't supposed to be Bil's POV.) Thanks so much for reading this so far, I hope that I will improve as I practice this new style!
