Don't Give Up On Me Baby
Chapter 2
"Hey Paige!"
"Paige, hi!"
"Paige, I love your shirt!" I smiled as people in the halls of my high school said hi to me, saying hey back and walking to my AP English class. I sat down in my seat in the front of the room, writing down the homework and taking out the essay I had to write the night before. Class started once the bell rang, and about 15 minutes into class the phone rang. My teacher answered it, and once she hung up she said,
"Paige, you're wanted in the gym, there's a Fall Sports meeting apparently for all the captains of teams."
"Oh, okay," I said, grabbing my stuff and walking to the gym. I walked in and saw the other captains of sports; soccer, football, volleyball, cross country, golf, tennis, and now, because of myself, cheerleading. I sat on the bleachers and listened to the coaches talk about how we were the captains of our teams and how we had to be responsible and set an example for the rest of the team. Basically they told us no partying, drinking, or drugs for the next 3 months. When they finished there meeting, there was only like, 10 minutes left of our class, so they let us stay in the gym and hang out. The captains of the other sports came over and said hi to me, and we all talked for a little. As I was walking out of the gym, the football captains were walking right beside me. Ryan and Kyle. I held my breath and looked down, as they totally ignored me, just like always. All of a sudden, this girl, Katie, who was on the volleyball team, raced up to Ryan and kissed him. I walked into a bathroom where I locked myself in a stall and started crying. It took me a few minutes to catch my breath, but once I did, I wiped my makeup away, fixed it, then went to lunch, where I sat with Jenna and some of our other friends. I sat down next to her, and she glanced at me skeptically.
"Are you okay?", she asked.
"I'm fine," I smiled. She looked at me for a few more seconds, so I just smiled and bit into my chicken wrap. She knew I wasn't okay, but she'd find out why today after school. She always came to my house once cheerleading was over, she was on the team too, and we went back to my house where I cried into her and she told me everything was gonna be okay. Even though in reality, I knew it was the total opposite. Everything was not gonna be okay. Not even close.
"I..I love you Paige. I fell in love with you from the first time we met."
"I love you too," I smiled, kissing Ryan. I couldn't believe what was happening. I was actually in love. I had never been in love before. I'm 16, and gonna be a Junior, I can't love someone! That's what I always thought at least.But then Ryan came along and changed everything.
That was in July, and if only I knew what was gonna happen a month later..I would have walked away. Everyone told me he was using me, he was a player, he didn't really love me. They all told me I was going to get hurt. I laughed in their faces. Even my own mother told me I was losing my mind because of him. I was THAT much in love with him. Wanna know what i think of love now? F*ck it. That's what I have to say about love now.
