Alyssa's POV:
I can't believe how much I'm struggling with this. I knew that there was a big chance that he would find someone else and move on from me quickly. I knew that this relationship was going to not last and we weren't going to be that couple that get married, grow old together and die within a week of each other. I knew this relationship was always meant to temporary. I knew that in the back of my mind and let I wasn't prepared for it.

I wasn't prepared to see him with someone else. I wasn't prepared for him to come to my house and try to see me. I wasn't prepared for feeling like shit and I wasn't prepared to feel like it was my fault. But wasn't it? Wasn't it my fault by wanting more than I would ever get? Wanting and trusting him?

As much as I try to forget about what I saw, I couldn't. He was a good looking guy who was popular, and charming and looked really good with a cheerleader who seemed as popular and charming as he was. He found his match and that was it. I couldn't compare and I will never be able to.

After the break up, I've had a hard time eating and sleeping. I had a hard time leaving the house. Worst of all I had a hard time confronting him as I would always have panic and fear and embarrassment when I did.

The good thing though is that through it out, Victoria and Jasmine stood to their word and stood by me. They are the best people ever and would always try to make me feel better. I mean right now they are probably out arranging girls night and finding out a way to help me move on from Nathan. Cause that's just who they are and they are the best.

"Hey we're home!" Jasmine yelled from downstairs.

"And we got Cinnabon and bubble tea. So come and get them!" Victoria yelled.

I knew that if I didn't come down and get it, Victoria would literally run up to my room, barge in and shove the food into me. The last time she did this food fell onto the floor and onto my clothes, so I decided to run downstairs to make sure they didn't come up.

I go down to see them smiling with teasing smiles and saw a Cinnabon box and a Taro Bubble tea with pearls.

"Hey what's your smiles about?" I asked as I sat down. I tried to stay away from the food items but knew that I had to pretend to be okay so I brought it closer to me. I just didn't have to eat it.

"Oh nothing." Victoria said as she came to sit beside me.

"Thanks for getting it for me." I said as I swirled the straw around in my drink and poked at my food. As much as I love these food items if I ever wanted love I couldn't eat them.

"No problem!" Jasmine said before puffing her cheeks and sighing. "It just sucked being there because we saw Nathan and he seemed very happy." 

"Oh he did." I said looking down. I can't believe that he moved on already and was happy. As much as I tried to fight my temptation I started drinking my bubble tea and cutting my Cinnabon into bite sized pieces. I knew that this would make it harder for someone to love me, but I didn't care.

"Yup. It sucks that he won this breakup." Victoria said as she looked at me, as if looking for my reaction.

"What do you mean he won the breakup? The breakup is not a game to win or lose. It's an actual event that lead to actual emotions." I said not being able to stand the fact that someone acted like this was a game. Even if they and Nathan thought it was didn't mean I had to.

"I mean that he won it. He was the one who cheated and he is the one who now gets to go around and be happy and act like nothing happened. While you are here suffering." Victoria said as she put her arm around my shoulder and held me tight.

"And that is not fair. It is not fair that he hurt you and he comes out of this scoot free. I know you are hurting but now because of him we are missing out on girls night." Jasmine said coming to sit on my other side.
