How could she? Just this morning I had told that I liked Ethan, then she went and kissed him? I thought she was my best friend; if she was, she wouldn’t have done that.

I unknowingly walked to the park. It’s in the middle of town and it’s absolutely beautiful. There’s trees all over, giving plenty of shade. once you get near the middle you started to enter the playground area. A blue jungle gym like bridge went above the path way, connecting each side of every child's paradise. I made my way over to the swings. While I was swinging, thinking about what happened, I noticed someone was running towards me.

“Kyla! I’m sorry!” Emma yelled, running in my direction.

“I don’t give a damn! I told you I like him, that I had kissed him and then you kissed him. Why? You’re my best friend, and best friends don’t do that to each other.” I chocked out between sobs.

“Kyla listen to me. I didn’t mean-”

“What, you didn’t mean to do it? If you hadn’t meant it you wouldn’t have done it.” Does she think I’m stupid, that I’ll believe whatever she tells me? She lost her trust in me.

“Please it wasn’t what you think. I know you saw us kiss, but you don’t know what happened.” She said with tears in her eyes.

“Emma just shut up. Leave me alone. I don’t care right now,” with that I walked away. I couldn’t stay any longer or I might say something I would regret.

“You’re my best friend, I would never do anything to hurt you!” Was the last thing I heard before I started to run.

I was sick of everything. Her, people hurting me, everything. I even hated the weather. It was too sunny, too nice. Everything, every one was against me.

I went back to school after leaving the park. I don’t want them to know how much they had hurt me. The warning bell for the last period run just as I snuck into the classroom.

Ms. Taylor was talking about arc lengths of circles and how to find them, but I didn’t understand a thing she said. I stared out the window, waiting for class to be over. I shouldn’t have came back her. As soon as the bell rung I was out the door. I wasn’t paying attention as to where I was going when I ran into someone.

“Oops, sorry,” I started to say until I saw who it was.

“Kyla, are you okay?” Ethan started to say, but I ran away before he could say more. I heard his footsteps behind me. I tried to run faster but he grabbed my arm before I could. “Kyla, please. Just let me tell you something,” he pleaded.

“No. What part of no don’t you get? I ran when you tried talking to me, but you didn’t understand that. Now I’m telling you no. N-O.”

“Please?”

“Ethan no. You hurt me. You acted like you cared, you kissed me. The next day I see you kissing my best friend! Now you want me to listen to you? Should’ve thought of that before,” I said while trying to get out of his grasp.

“I’m sorry I hurt you, but you hurt me too. I asked you if that kiss last night meant anything to you because it did to me. You told me it didn’t mean anything, that it was the biggest mistake of your life. How do you think I felt? I have never felt this about someone before, then you go and hurt me,” he looked me in the eyes saying this. I could see truth there, but I didn’t know if I could believe him. I felt betrayed. Used.

“I’m sorry I hurt you. You’re a player; you break hearts for the hell of it. I need to protect myself from you. You will get over the hurt before I do. So please leave me alone?” I felt bad, and I have no idea why.

“Sure. I will do anything for you. Remember that,” he let go of me and walked in the other direction. Could I of hurt him? I don’t think I could do that to him.

I got into my car, turning the radio on and pulling out of the school yard. I decided to take the long way home today, I would have more time to think about things. I turned the radio upwhen I heard my favorite song Mean byTaylor Swift come on, and I of course, sung along to it.

You, with your words like knives and swords and weapons that you use against me

You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard, calling me out when I'm wounded                            You pickin' on the weaker man            

By the time the song was over I was pulling into my driveway. I looked around for Ethan’s car, getting out of mine when I noticed it wasn’t there. I walked into the house, throwing my bag on steps, then going to the kitchen to find food.

"Kyla, are you okay?” My said coming out of the laundry room, scaring me.

“Yep, everything is great. Wonderful even,” I lied to her. She noticed. “Liar.”

“I’m not lying mom,” why wouldn’t she just believe me?

“Hon, I know when you’re lying. Now come on, tell me,” she insisted.

I finally gave in and told her everything. Starting with the kiss last night, ending with the fight today. I cried as I told her, upset about everything again. I was glad I had my mom here to talk to. I didn’t have any friends now.

I hope this chapter is longer. I try hard to write more than what I do. This one was about 4 pages long on pages(I use a Mac). the other chapters are about 3 pages. anyways.

Mr. U in here is one of my teachers actual name, I have no idea what he's going to teacher in here though... Ms. Taylor is based on math teacher..

I also need people to play the characters... any ideas?

Also, the picture on the side is of the park.

I feel like no one like this story. I have started the next chapter but I need more votes if I want to finish it. So 10 votes for next update? I hate asking for votes but I need the motivation...

Vote. Comment. Fan.<3
