Only a Secret | Sequel to Only a Memory

Save it

Arizona's p.o.v ;-

I get back to the college in under half an hour.

I walk to our dorm when Zoë walks out of her room.

' Hello new girl ' she scowls.

I just ignore her and walk to my door.

' No answer then? ' she asks.

' Do yourself a favour Zoë? ' I say opening my door.

' Stop obsessing over us all okay? ' I say walking in and locking the door.

I throw my keys on the little table beside the door ( I deeply apologise for saying door so many times ) and walk into my room, collapse onto my bed and break down.

--- Brayden's p.o.v ;-

Parker and Tori come into the hospital room and sit on either side of me.

' Are you okay Brayden? ' Tori asks.

" Only sore bud " I smile.

" Where's Ari? " I question.

" She ran away from her problems " Parker said.

' She went home because she didn't want to be around people who don't want her around ' she said looking at Parker.

" Why don't you give it another shot? " I ask him hopefully.

" Why would ANYONE give someone who kisses their best friend when they have a boyfriend. " he snaps.

--- Arizona's p.o.v ;-

A few hours later I get up and change into sweat and a muscle tank, I walked past my mirror and I looked a state.

I didn't think I could get attached this badly to someone.

I make my way to the bathroom and splash cold water on my face and dry off.

As I do, I hear someone chap the door.

I hang the towel on the rail and walk to the door and open it, Ryan.

I roll my eyes and look up at him.

" Ari, please listen, I am so sorry. " he pleads.

I just look at him.

" I didn't mean for it to go this far. " he says.

' How far did you plan for it to go? ' I say with no emotion.

" Ari, I'm sorry, I thought it would only be our secret, I am so sorry " he apologies.

' Brayden, he said you knew Parker and I were together.. Why did you do it then? ' I cry.

" The truth is Ari, I loved you, I didn't believe Brayden, well, I didn't want to... " he stopped.

I begin to cry a lot more.

" Please don't be upset Ari " Ryan says.

' How can I not be upset...I have left one of the people who truly cared about me ' I cry to him.

Just as I stop ( was tempted to write sto!] ) Belle appears.

Great, I mumble to myself.

' Listen, Ari I'm so sor- ' I cut her off.

' Just leave it Belle, I think that you have done enough for today ' I say walking away into my room.

I close my room door and break down again.
