Don't ever think that everything's changed just because I've been with you for a couple of days." "What's wrong?" "Everything!" I blurted. "Everything is wrong. You made it clear last time that you wanted me to be your girlfriend, and that is not going to happen because I have a boyfriend! I can't do it. I can't cheat on him! So could you plea -" "Then break up with him." He said as a matter of fact. My mouth hanged open as I looked at him in disbelief. "Will you please shut up! You left me first! You don't have the right to do this right now." I turned and stormed away from him but he grabbed my shoulders this time. "Melissa please." He pleaded. Tears formed on the corners of his eyes. "Please what?" "I will patiently wait." "Alexander, don't do this. You're asking me to either break up with my boyfriend or cheat on him and I'm not doing any of that."

"So what really happened tonight?" My stomach dropped, why must he do this to me. I shrugged, "I told you, we just were ready to go." He nodded, "mhm, right after I got done dancing with Karin? What a coincidence." He giggled. I rolled my eyes and looked at the tv. He sat up and looked at me. "You're jealous!" I scoffed, "boy please." I said, knowing damn well I was frontin'. He continued to laugh, "awe little Sabrina is jealous!" He teased me and tugged on my arm. "Move Devin!" I yanked away and almost began crying. I thought he'd assume that I liked him and make this easier for me to confess, but instead he's teasing me, and my sensitive ass couldn't take it. He stopped and stared and wondered why I wasn't playing along with his joke. "Damn Sabrina, it was just a dance, you're always gonna be my best friend." "Well I wanna be more than that!" I shouted, and made him jump. I couldn't help it now, here came the tears running like a broken faucet. I stood up and walked to the corner, holding my arms and cringing quietly. Damnit, why did I say it?!! Shit! Fuck. COMPLETED APRIL 2017Complete
