The Things You Don't Know
Chapter One, Part
2
I couldn't stop smiling the rest of the day. I mostly tried
to figure out if this was all real. I got home and grabbed my
phone off the charger to text James. He had texted me first
though. He said, "babe, idk if I can do this. being in
different schools is so hard. Im sry Em, but I got tempted and
cheated on you. it was just 1 kiss. can you forgive me?" I
threw my phone down and sank down to the floor crying. How could
he do this to me? Three years! I gave that boy three years of my
life and love, and this is how I'm repaid. This is how
I'm treated? No. I don't know how long this has gone on,
but it's ending now. I'm so stupid to believe this
wouldn't happen. Everybody has their deal-breaker, and mine
is cheating. I stood up slowly, grabbed my phone again, and
shakily texted back, "no. I won't forgive you James.
Ever. you know I can't stand cheaters. So we're done.
Goodbye."
I never got a rely. So my
biggest problem was now gone. That jerk I had is gone, and now
the only thing left on my mind was Matt and his gorgeous blue
eyes. God I love blue eyes. And his jet black hair just made them
pop. His hair was short, but just long enough you could run your
fingers through it. At 5 foot 7, he had a strong, defined chest
and stomach, and long legs for running.
All I though about was him
and what to wear to impress him. Today I wore light blue skinny
jeans, my tan BearPaws, and a black tanktop with a gray zip-up
sweater zipped half-way. I can do better than that. My
shoulder-length, dark brown (almost but not quite black) hair can
be straightened to wear down tomorrow, and I can wear my dark
blue flare jeans and my green-laced shirt with a white tanktop
underneath. I grabbed my phone, charger, and school bag and
quickly went up the slightly spiraled staircase to my room. I
picked out the outfit and layed in on a small table near my bed
for the morning, wanting the night to come and go so I could see
Matt tomorrow morning.
