i can't stop remembering...

plotting against

"Wait," Izzy says. "Sasha is now in our old gang with Rose. Do you think Hardin has been with them the whole time?"

"He could have been," I say. "Which means that Rose has been against us this whole time too. She knew who Hardin and Sasha both were."

"She's plotting against us too," Edwin whispers.

"But why?" Austin asks.

"I have no idea," I say.

"She has probably always been against us," Edwin says. "But now her plan is working because Sasha is with her."

"So basically Rose, Sasha, and Hardin have been working together to take us all out?" Izzy asks.

"Yes," I say. "But nobody actually knows why."

(Addison's pov)

As soon as Nick leaves I lay down and I stare up at the ceiling. I can't fall back asleep though. The only thing I can think about is how Hardin has been cheating on me.

He never loved me. He told me so many times that he loved me, but it was all lies. I will never understand how someone can say that they love you, but then not mean it. It just doesn't make any sense to me.

I put so much into our relationship. I loved him with everything. I never left his side. I listened to him for hours, but he never even cared for me. He only acted like he cared, so he could get closer to the boys because of the gang.

I've never felt like this before. I cheated on my boyfriend once, but I was drunk and I know that's no excuse, but we were able to work it out.

Hardin's situation is so different. He didn't just cheat on me, he used me too and that's one of the worst feelings ever.

My phone starts ringing and I pick it up to see it's from Hardin. You've got to be kidding me, right? He is really calling me right now? The nerve of this man. I end the call and I put my phone back down.

I don't understand why he thinks it's okay to call me. He knows he messed up. Why call me after everything?

My phone starts ringing again and I quickly hang up. I want nothing to do with him.

Who would want to be associated with a cheater? Not me. I know I always say to give second and third chances, but he doesn't deserve it. He's an awful person.

My phone rings again and I groan. I hang up quickly and I take my phone to walk down the stairs. When I'm completely downstairs I see everyone sitting on the couch, talking about something.

"Nick," I say.

He turns around, "Yes? You okay?"

"Hardin keeps calling me," I say.

Nick stands up from the couch and gently takes my phone from me. I can hear it start ringing again and he quickly answers it.

"Put it on speaker," I whisper.

He nods his head and answers the phone, putting it on speaker. "What the hell do you want, Hardin?"

"Why are you answering Addison's phone? Is she okay?" He asks.

"What do you mean, is she okay? Would you be okay if someone cheated on you?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Don't play dumb," Nick says. "I showed her the video. She knows what kind of person you are."

Hardin sighs and I feel tears in the corner of my eyes. I hate hearing his voice, "Just let me talk to her, man."

"No, she wants nothing to do with you," Nick says. "Don't call her again."

"Please, just let me explain to her."

"Explain what?" Nick yells. "Explain how big of a piece of shit you are!"

"No, I need to talk to her."

Nick looks over at me and he frowns when he sees the tears run down my face. I know he hates when I cry, but at this point I can't help it.

"You aren't talking to her. Don't call her again. What you did was so fucked up. You are an asshole."

Nick hangs up the phone and I wipe the tears from my face. Nick steps over to me and wraps his arms around me.

I rest my head on his chest and I immediately start crying again. Crying feels like the only thing I can do at this point.

What else am I supposed to do?
