Original Stories Fan Fiction ❯ Break Ups And Lies ❯ Break Ups And Lies ( Chapter 8 )
[ P - Pre-Teen ]
It was Aaron he was kissing another girl, a girl I've never seen before. Wait, I did know that girl! I froze; I couldn't believe what I was seeing. That girl was DANA! Dana stopped Aaron when she saw me standing there.
“Uh…Colleen what are you doing here?” He asked. “I go to school here.” I answered, “Why…why would you do this?” “I-I love you Coll-“I don't want to you lies!” I interrupted, “I should've listened!” I said sadly, I could feel my eyes burning.
“I gave up everything just to be with you…my real friends…my grades…and then you turn around and go with someone else!” “Well that's not my problem is it?” Aaron said coldly, “You should have been more observant, Colleen. Did you really think that I was having trouble with math? And that Dana was helping me? I knew you were easy to trick, but that was just sad.”
I didn't say anything. I couldn't say anything. Aaron and Dana then walked away. While I sat down right then, and there, and started crying. I noticed someone walking by, when I looked up, I saw Amy and Chris, their expressions were cold. They glared at me as they walked. I looked down; I couldn't look at my ex-best friends anymore.
Those seventh graders…they knew too. Did everyone know? I couldn't think about it anymore. It hurt too much. It seemed as if I lost everything to him. My grades, my real friends, and my life.
I got up, went inside the school, went into my locker, got my stuff, and went home. I didn't care that I might get in trouble for leaving school early; I just wanted to get out of there. When I got home, I grabbed a box of chocolates and began eating away, in five minutes; I had eaten two boxes of chocolates. I fell asleep with two boxes of chocolates on top of me.
When I woke up, it was 9:00 AM; I'm not going to school. I thought, I'll never go. A week passed, and I was still at home, my mom thinks that I'm sick, but I'm not. I sat on my couch and thought about what people are doing in school right now. Then I remembered Cheryl, and Jessica and Stephanie. Maybe I should go back to school, I thought. Just for one day, just to see how things are going.
I woke up early the next morning and got ready for school, “Loser!” “Loner!” “Your such a geek!” I heard all of those voices talking to me as I was walking by. I realized how hurtful those words were when you're the person they're saying it to. I went into my locker and took out what I needed for 1st period. No one talked to me, or even made any eye contact. They all hated me, and I wouldn't blame them. I called them all nerds, geeks, talked behind people's backs, and everything possible thing you can do to hurt someone.
By lunch, it was even worse. I decided to sit with Jessica, and Stephanie. They were already sitting down at a table, so I just walked over and sat down. “Who are you?” Jessica asked, “I'm Colleen.” I said forcing a smile. “Oh! Well, we don't sit with loners, and besides, Dana is sitting there.” Stephanie said smiling; I turned around and saw Dana she had that same cold look on her face.
She was glaring at me with that “get out of my way” look. So I quickly moved and started to walk away, when I tripped over something. I fell right on my food. “Such a loser!” Dana said laughing, “You're the loser! I shouted, I shouted so loud that everyone in the room was staring at me. “If you really think you're going to be popular forever, you're wrong, look at what happened to me.
Just think about what I saying, otherwise, you'll be a loner…like me.” The room was silent for a moment, and then every one started talking like nothing happened. I sat at a table by myself until it was time to go inside. I remembered Amy, and Chris. Dana had tripped me. Just like what I did to Amy.
When I went back in class, I tried to pay attention to everything that was going on, I couldn't just fail grade eight! When it was time to go home, I noticed Cheryl walking by herself, I ran up to her and tapped her on the shoulder.
She turned around and said, “What do you want?” “I'm sorry,” I said,” I should've listened to you, and if I did, I wouldn't be in this mess right now, and I'm sorry I made you cry, I was just bringing up bad memories of the past.”
“That's okay.” Cheryl said smiling, “But you didn't totally end up like me, when I was going out with Aaron. I forgot about school. And, I ended up failing. I had to do the grade over again.” “Oh.” I said quietly, that explains why Cheryl was so serious about Aaron, and all of her hatred for him.
“Really.” Cheryl said seriously, “You don't want to end up like me.” “Okay.” I said. Just then, she said, “Hey, isn't that Amy and Chris?” she pointed to two people sitting on a rock. “Yeah, I have something to tell them.” I said walking away. “Ok, bye!” Cheryl said, and walked in the opposite direction.
“Amy! Chris!” I called as I ran towards them, they didn't turn around, they just kept staring in nothingness. I ran in front of them. “What do you want?” Amy asked angrily, “I just wanted to say that I'm sorry for all of those bad things I did to all of you, it's okay if you don't to talk to me any more.” I said, and began to walk home.
