The
Player Falls Hard
Chapter 15
BRYNN'S POV
I woke up early the next morning and went for a run. Running always helped
me clear my mind, which is exactly what I needed to do. I was so
confused by Harry, and by myself. I wasn't supposed to fall
for him. But now I'm afraid that I fell for him, and
can't get back up. My legs were moving fast, my heart racing.
I saw a bench up near a stop sign, and sat down there, then
started crying. First just a few tears, but eventually I was
sobbing, and couldn't stop. Nobody seemed to notice, or at
least that's what I thought. I saw a guy walking over to me,
although he didn't look familiar.
"Are you okay?" he asked, sitting next to me on the
bench. I didn't answer for a few minutes, and he didn't
push me to.
"No. I'm not." I said, starting to cry
again.
"Why's a pretty girl like you crying?" he asked,
which made me blush, I think. I calmed myself down enough to give
him an answer.
"Because my boyfriend's using me. But he doesn't
know that I know that." I said, shocking myself by spilling
that secret to a complete stranger.
"I'm Kyle. And your boyfriend sounds like a jerk."
he said, which made me laugh a little bit.
"I'm Brynn. And I know."
I then proceeded to tell him everything, and I had no idea why I
did.
"I don't know why you're still with him." he
told me, and to be honest, I didn't know either. I told him I
should get going, and he offered to walk me back to my
house.
"Yeah, that would be
nice." I said, geting up off the bench. We started walking,
and he was actually a really funny guy.
"If you ever need help getting revenge on this guy, please
let me know. I work at the coffee shop on the corner." he
said, and I laughed.
"Actually, that's not a bad idea... He's my neighbor
as well, and I have a feeling he will get jealous if he sees you
with me." I said, an idea forming in my head. When we got in
front of his house, I started laughing loudly, but not too
obnoxiously. I heard a door open, and I assumed it was
Harry's. I didn't look though, just kept walking with
Kyle. When we were on my porch, I invited him to sit for a few
minutes, and he accepted. Shortly after, I saw Harry walking down
my driveway.
"Brynn, hey." he said, as if he didn't see
Kyle.
"Hi."
"I'm sorry, am I interrupting something?" he asked,
and I took advantage of that question.
"Actually, you kind of are. But I'll call you
later." I said, and his face looked kind of
shocked.
"Yeah, okay." he said, before walking back to his
house.
"Oh my gosh, tha totally worked!" I said, high-fiving
Kyle.
"This is going to be fun." he said, and I
agreed.
After Kyle left, I decided I would call Harry.
"Hey." I said once he answered.
"Now you have time for me?" he asked, and I could tell
he was jealous.
"Wanna come over?" I asked, as if nothing
happened.
"Sure." he said, hanging up and probably walking over.
I walked to the front door to greet him, and instead came face to
face with my father.
"Let me guess. Harry's coming over." he said, a
lucky guess.
"Yeah, why?" I asked.
"I don't like that guy Brynn. He's a famous
musician. And musicians don't have any room for people in
their life except their bandmates." he said.
"Whatever Dad." I said, pushing past him. He just
sighed and walked out to his car, then left.
"Hi." I said, kissing Harry once I saw him.
"Hello to you too." he said, smiling
flirtatiously.
After kissing for a few more minutes, he asked me
something.
"Brynn, who was that guy from earlier?" he asked, and I
could tell he was jealous.
"Kyle? Just a friend." I said, waving it off as if it
was nothing.
"Are you lying to me?" he asked. Here goes
nothing.
"No, I'm not. But I knwo you're lying to me." I
started. He tried to ask what I was talking about, but I
didn't let him finish.
"You're a liar, and you're a jerk, and you only care
about yourself." I said.
"Where is this coming from?" he asked,
shocked.
"You know Harry. And so do I. So you can give up the act. I
know you're not in love me. And I know you're using me.
Seriously? How cold do you have to be in order to use a girl to
get some car you want? Do you even have a heart? I know I'm
part of a bet. So don't pretend you don't know what
I'm talking about. And you wannat know the worst part? I knew
for the past two weeks, and I didn't do anything, because I
was sitll in shock. But I can't be with someone that is
hurting me, which is why I'm breaking up with you." I
said, my words rushing together.
"Brynn, let me explain." he said.
"No. Get out." I said, pointing to the door.
"Brynn, please-"
"I said GET OUT." I repeated, screaming. He got off the
couch, regret filling his eyes. He walked out of my house, and I
collapsed onto the couch. For the second time that day, I burst
into tears. This time though, I was all alone and had nobody to
help me through it.
Until Valorie walked in, and saw me crying. She walked over to me
and put her arms around my shoulders, and suprisingly, I let her.
She just held me as I cried, trying to soothe me. For once, I
wasn't going to push her away. Because I would need her and
my father in the days that followed.
HARRY'S POV
Why? Why did I do it? I should have told her, I should have told
her that it was a bet at first, but I actually developed feelings
for her along the way. Now she hates me. And I understand why. I
really am a terrible guy. There's no way she will take me
back. I don't even think she will let me explain what
happened. I don't want the car anymore, I don't want
anything that reminded me of the bet. I do want one thing though
that reminded me of the bet. Something I loved. Brynn.
