Chapter 29

Chapter 29

Yale's POV

~ Flash back ~

The minute Max entered the room, my mind filled with worry and regret. Everything that I'd been doing before and after I met Abigail came flooding back to me, making my heart race faster and faster. Max stepped forward, grabbing Abigail and placing her in front of him. He eyed me with a horrid look, and I knew for certain that he was going to spill the biggest secret of my life.

I watched him as he began pouring everything out on her. The look on her face changed every so often; from worry, to fright, to sadness and then to pure fear. My hands started to tremble and I shook my hair over my face so no-one could see the pain that my eyes held. 

It was only after Max stopped talking, that all eyes were on me. Abigail was looking at me expectantly, her eyes filled with expectation and fear. I found it really difficult to look up, and when I did, regret filled me from head to toe.

"Yale .. is .. is this true?" she whispered. I could see her trembling and from then on, I felt like I wanted to kill myself. I took a deep breath and plastered a serious expression on my face. I had to do this, even if it killed the both of us.

"Yes, it's true," I began, "I don't really love you; it was all just a game to get what we wanted. Me to get Tyler for being a shit friend and taking Jenna when he knew I liked her, and Max to get Jenna. At first he thought using Amberly would get him closer to Jenna, but it didn't. So we used you when I met you. I'm sorry." After I'd gotten that off my chest, I somehow felt better. I got up, and walked over to her, kneeling slightly so that her face was leveled with mine. I brushed her cheek gently, before giving her a smirk.

"Anyway, I enjoyed being your girlfriend. It was a lot of fun." I let out a fake chuckle before kissing her. I couldn't believe I was doing this. I walked over to Max, standing next to him

"I hope you guys have a nice life," I said, smirking. "It was fun getting to know you. And don't think we're done knowing you .. there's still a lot more to find out.." After saying that, I took a quick look at Abby before walking together with Max out of the living room. 

I turned back and had a near heart-attack when I saw Abigail on the floor, curled up in a ball, obviously crying. I bit my lip to stop myself from crying. It was then that I realised that I should have told her everything straight out before asking her out. That I shouldn't have lied, and that I should have been fair to her. She never deserved any of this.

I felt a tug on my jacket and looked up to see Max grinning at me. I quickly replaced my sad expression to a fake smile before rushing out the front door, and down the stairs to the main entrance. One thing I knew and wouldn't get over was the fact that I loved Abigail. I did say I didn't, but I was forced to say so. And I regret it.

~ End Flashback ~

I stood there frozen to the spot as I watched Abigail walk off, her eyes red from tears forcing their way out of her eyes. The look on her face killed me, knowing it was all my fault. I looked away from her to Tyler, who was standing stiffly in front of me. His eyes were filled with hatred and anger, and this only made me feel worse.

"You have no fucking idea how you've made Abigail feel," Tyler said, his teeth gritted. "She's been crying everyday since that day you broke up with her, even during the vacation. I've never seen her like that, and it kills me. So I suggest you stay the hell away from her or you'll be saying hello to my fist." Tyler glared at me before walking away, leaving me to stand there alone in the middle of the school grounds.

I sighed, and picked up my bag that I had dropped on the ground, and lifted it onto my shoulder. Slowly making my way into the school building, I tried my best to dodge swarms of girls as they tried their best to charm me. I gave them all annoyed glares, letting them know I was not interested. I walked into the school building, and made my way down the hall.

Not caring what class I had first, I decided to keep on walking and let my body take me to wherever it wanted to. All my mind wanted to think about was Abigail, and what a mess I had made this entire situation. The fact that Tyler hated my guts even more didn’t effect me, but the fact that Abigail hated me just as much made my heart ache. What was I thinking when I spilled out the secret I had been trying to keep in me for as long as possible. And to add to that, why did I even have to end up holding such a secret.

As my mind raced with more thoughts, I stumbled past the girls’ bathroom, falling against the door making a loud thudding noise. I heard footsteps, and quickly hid in the janitor’s closet that was a couple steps away from the bathroom. I closed the door, and carefully pressed my ears against the door, hoping to hear who it might have been. And just my luck, it was Abigail.

“What the hell was that?” I heard Abigail mutter, more footsteps joining in with hers. 

“No clue. But whoever it was want to know what we were talking about; or know what was going on.” I registered the second voice as Jenna’s. I sighed when I realized that Abigail had probably told everything that had happened just a couple minutes before to Jenna. 

When I was sure that no-one was about, I quickly walked out of the closet, closing it quietly before continuing my way down the hall. Everywhere was deserted; not a single person around. Class must have already started, so instead of heading to mine, I made my way to the exit of the school. Hoping that no-one had seen me, I quickly ran through the parking lot, and out of the gate and onto the pavement. Knowing that Abigail and I were in the same school and the fact that she hated me didn’t seem to click well with sticking around. I continued walking down the pavement, and on to my house. No way was I staying in school.

Ahh, sorry for the really late update!

I've been extremely busy with mock exams and all, and I never had the chance to update. :[

Also, I've been feeling a little lazy to write; having a bit of writer's block. Anyone know how to fix that ? D:

Anyway, here's chapter 29, and as a treat, I'll be adding chapter 3O in a couple minutes! :D
