Lulu

A sob broke out from my mouth immediately he left.
He actually left without saying any thing.

I suddenly felt used and dirty.
I felt stupid. "Am so stupid!"
I screamed throwing the pillow he laid on, at the wall.

"I hate you Paige. " I cried.
It was all her fault. If she hadn't been so selfish, none of those would have happened.
I wouldn't have fallen in love for Bryan.

Was she blind?
"Why is she the lucky one and not me?"
I cried pulling the duvet to my chest.

Last night only came at a cost.
And I utterly hated the price I had to pay.
I hated every time he called me Paige.
Hated every time he kissed me thinking I was Paige.
He released in me moaning HER name not mine.
The thought of the ending of our love making brought fresh tears to my eyes.

He muttered he loved me in my ear as we made love.
He was so caring and loving  last night...what changed...

He thought I was Piage and that's what changed.
He woke up and realized that what he dreamt or rather thought a  reality...never happened.

A lone tear trailed down my cheek as I closed my eyes.

"Lulu?" An overly sweet voice called.
I sniffled then quickly wiped my tears away.
"Lulu!"

"What?!" I shouted.
Can't I have peace in my own house.
A few seconds later the door opened to reveal the last person I wanted to see.
The last person I needed was Paige.
"Hey...is something wrong?"

Yes something is wrong!
And its your fault.
"what are you  doing here?" She closed the door gently behind her then sat down on my bent slowly.
"Lulu..."
I refused to meet her gaze. Because If I did, I don't think I'll be able to stop the tears that threatened to fall from flowing.

Looking at her right now made me feel embarrassed.
"Can you give me a hug Paige?"
She looked at me weird. "Of course. Am your best friend after all and I love you."
That did it.
I busted into tears.
"Paige..." I sobbed as she pulled me into her arms to hug me.
"Paige. " I cried.
She rubbed my back and held me.
She held me.
"Why Paige? Why me? Who did I offend to be curse with unhappiness?"
"No one my dear friend. You've offended no one. " she cried.

This made me cry harder.

I was being a bitchy friend.
She was crying with me as though she felt my pain.
She was crying with me to comfort me.

"Forgive me my friend. "
"For what?" I held her tighter.

"For every thing. "

Paige

Something was definitely up with Lulu.
Lulu isn't usually like this.
She's always smiling. Always trying to make everyone happy and smiling.
"Talk to me Lulu. "
She just kept on sobbing. "I made myself cheap. "

"Huh?"

"I discarded my dignity and self worth. I made myself cheap. Paige...I..."

She held unto my jacket and continued crying. "Shhh. Hush am here. "
"Don't go until I fall asleep Okay?"
I nodded then made to pull back. "No."
I sighed then rubbed her back as she hiccuped.
"Paige?"
"Yes?" She sniffled. "Thanks. "
I smiled.
She sniffled again then coughed. "I am so late for class. "
"Call in late and spend time with me. "

Mikey would be so pissed if I missed class.
He'd spank me till my butt ached.
"Can't..."

"Please?" She said pulling away to look at me.
"Lulu..."
"Please Paige...stay. " I sighed then bent to take off my vans.
"Could you hand me my gown over there?" I stood up to help then saw the pillow on the floor so I turned to her to explain.
"Long story. "
Shaking my head I picked up the gown on the chair then stopped.
I picked up the cuff link on the floor and examined it.
It looked familiar but I couldn't place it.
"Is everything alright?"
"Yes." I said slipping the item into my pocket then turning to hand her her gown. "Care to explain why slept naked?"
She looked flushed. "No. "
"I can respect that. " I said getting under the covers.
"Thanks for staying in with me. " I nodded.
"I feel  sleepy. " she muttered and I laughed.
"You can sleep. Theres no need to worry. "
She frowned then turned to the other side.
"Nighty night. " she ignored meand closed her eyes.

Something was not right.
I just had this feeling that there was something she didn't to get off her chest.
There was something she wasn't telling me.
I was her sister from another mother so why would she hid so something or any thing for that matter from me ?

"Wish you'd feel free to tell me the truth my friend. "

I looked at her one last time then turned around to face the other side of the room.
Every where was quiet and silent.
Which only happened when Mr and Mrs Summers went on an impromptu trip for what ever reason they went.
I slowly slipped my hand in my pocket and pulled out the cuff link I had found.

Where was the other pair?
If did  this belong to a man? I wanted to know.
What does he have to do with my friend.
Was he in any way related to what was happening to my friend? I also wanted to know.
I glanced behind me to look at Lulu and  see if she was alright.
Once I was sure she was okay...I relaxed then slipped the cuff link back into my pocket and closed my eyes.
What ever the matter was, I was going to find out and fix it.
Who ever the asshole was I am  going to find out and then I am going to kick his ass because he doesn't know how to respect my friend.

When Lulu  woke up, we are going to talk and then she's going to tell me what actually happened. Whether she likes it or does not.
