Dreams Can Come True

Chapter 15: I thought you loved me?!

I hide my face behind my hair and hear the bell ring. I stand up but Xander stops me.

" I-I never moved on, I still l-love y-you. " he stutters like he's lying.

" Oh ok phew. I'm glad. I still love you too. " he kisses me on the cheek and he walks me to my next class.

When I get to the lunch room, I scan the room looking for Xander. But I particularly dont like what I see. Maddy sat on his lap and they seemed to be in a hot make out session. I try to hold back the tears and wipe my now runny nose. I run to hide in the bathroom for the rest of lunch with my stomach growling and bugging me that it wants food.

I get to sixth hour and I sit down in my seat.

" Hey " I hear Xander say cheerfully. I didn't even know he was there.

I ignore him and get my folder and papers out ready to go for class.

" You ok? You seem on the edge ever since this morning. Did I say something? Im sorry if I did. " he looks at me worriedly.

" Fuck off Xander, I dont want to talk to you right now. " I dont make eye contact and he seemed surprised and shocked at my words. Thank god the teacher walked in.

" I dont need this. " I mumble.

I open my locker and put my stuff away and grab my bag and start on my way to the front of the school.

" Em! Emilie! Where are you going? I wanna talk. " I hear Xander say running up to me, out of breath.

" Just leave me please. " I feel the tears coming on.

" I want to know why your mad at me! " he pleads.

" I saw you at lunch with Maddy! Sucking face to be exact! There you happy?! Now if you'll excuse me I've got to find Xander cause I'm as sure as hell you aren't him. " I say storming off walking home leaving him at a loss of words.

***

Once I got home I fell asleep and took a nap. I wake up to find 30 missed calls from Xander and I'm pretty sure he's considered my ex now, now that i think about it. And I've 56 text messages from both Zoey and Xander, mostly from Xander. I reply to Zoey's texts and just delete Xander's and shutting off my phone. I go downstairs to see my mum cooking dinner.

" Hey mom! " I smile wearily.

" Hey. Is something bothering you? " she turns to look at me.

I starts sobbing and I latch on to her for dear life. Once I calmed down, I told her everything that happened since we arrived, and I mean EVERYTHING. Including that witch Maddy and Xander swallowing tongue at lunch today.

I wipes my tear stains and sigh.

" So that pretty much wraps it up. " I say looking at the floor.

" Oh honey, its ok. Things will work out. If they don't, then maybe he wasn't meant to be. " she kisses my forehead and serves dinner calling my father down as well.

She's probably right. I hope she's right.

I wake up the next day and get dressed in jeans, my signature purple vans and a cute crop top and my leather jacket and my TMNT Snapback. I put on my makeup and grab my bag and head to school.

As I enter the school and walk down the corridors, I hear guys wolf whistle and whisper stuff like, " Damn that girls got a good ass " and " I'd tap dat ass " and " I wonder if she would go out with me."

I get to my locker and put my bag in and close it. I turn around to see a guy standing there smirking.

" Hey beautiful, wanna come over to my house later tonight? " he says winking.

" Ugh. Bug off. " I roll my eyes walking down the hall towards my class which includes a bunch of drooling guys as they watch me.

" Ooh. Feisty! I like that in a woman. " says the same guy.

" Give up already. I am not getting you laid tonight. So go screw some other girl. " I hear him whisper to his friends, " she wants me. "

I sit down in my class and I find Zoey staring at me.

" What? " I whisper yelled.

" You-know-who is staring at you. " she motions to behind me.

I turn around and come face to face with Xander. I turn back around hiding my anger. Even when I see him I get angry about yesterday.

Once class is over, I switch out my books at my locker and head to my second hour, Math. I take my seat and find the guy who tried flirting with me earlier sat next to me and he's staring at me.

" Hey sweetheart. How about instead of my house, we could go grab some food or catch a movie. " he says checking out my chest.

I think ok it and I smirk at the idea of making Xander jealous.

" Sure. Pick me up at 6? " I say and hand him a slip of paper with my address.

" Perfect. I'll see you there then. "
