Chapter 25: Chapter 25

“I’m going out. I’ll see you later tonight,” Shane told me. He tried to kiss me, but I turned my head. It’s around six o’clock. I bet he’s going to meet whoever he was talking to on the phone. “What the hell is wrong with you Kaelyn? You’ve been acting strange all day!” he exclaimed.

“Shane, why don’t you just think for a second of your life! You’re almost always leaving around six or seven o’clock, we haven’t even been on an actual date, and you don’t really care do you?” I screamed. All my emotions just popped inside of me, kind of like when you take a needle and poke a balloon with it.

“What are you talking about? ‘I don’t really care’, you have no idea how much I care! I’m sorry I’m always leaving all the time, but I can’t be with you twenty-four seven!” He argued back. I shook my head and threw my hands down in frustration.

“I don’t want to be with you twenty-four seven! But, it would be nice if you weren't always going out to maintain your 'bad boy' reputation! You’re always with your friends! Who are you going to get drunk with this time? Vincent or Gage?” I yelled. This is our first real fight. I stood up and watched Shane walk out the front door. I followed him.

“I’m not going to get drunk with anyone,” He said. I sarcastically laughed.

“Yeah right,” I said. Shane spun around on his heels and raised his hand. I thought he was going to hit me, but he slowly put his hand back down.

“I-I have to go,” he said. He turned around and walked back to his car. I stood still for a minute, my feet were glued to the porch. I watched as he backed out of the driveway and sped down the street.

“I can’t believe you,” I mumbled. A tear slipped out of my eye. I stormed back inside the house, slamming the door in the process. Michael wasn’t home again, I don’t even know where he goes anymore. I went up to my room and then pulled out one of Shane’s hoodies. Maybe wearing it will make me calm down. It smells like Shane’s expensive cologne. As much as I love him, I don’t understand why he always leaves to go be with someone else. Who’s he going out to meet this time? It’s not Vincent, Gage, or Kyle… they left hours ago to who knows where. Shane wouldn’t even tell me anything about who he’s going out to meet. Nothing at all.

What if he’s going out to meet another girl? What if I’m not good enough for him?

I really need to stop jumping to conclusions. I just need to calm down and relax. If he doesn’t comeback within a few hours, I’ll call him or he’ll call me. If he’s not mad at me for yelling at him.

I tried to get all the thoughts out of my head by watching a movie. I slid The Amazing Spiderman into the DVD player, and waited until the main menu came up. I crawled under my covers and pressed play.

I watched movie after movie after movie, while I waited for Shane to call. He never did.

I was finally extremely annoyed, scared, worried, and paranoid. I picked up my phone and called him. After about five rings he picked up… or at least someone picked up.

“Hello?” it was a girl. Her voice was high pitched and she sounded confused. I didn’t even bother to say anything, I just hung up. I knew it.

I. Knew. It.

Shane could not be trusted. He went behind my back to be with another girl. He told me that he changed. He lied. There was practically a waterfall of tears streaming down my face. Is he cheating on me? I thought he made a vow that he would never cheat on any girl… he wouldn’t break that, would he? He wouldn’t cheat… he wouldn't.

I curled up in a fetal position and wept into my pillow. I turned my light off and tried to sleep, but I couldn’t. I had too many emotions, my brain wasn’t allowing me to sleep. I felt my phone start vibrating, someone was calling me. I looked at the I.D. Shane. I declined his call and threw my phone on the floor.

I really hope he doesn’t show up at school tomorrow. I don’t want to have anything to do with him right now. I’ve been cheated on once and I thought that was the last time. I guess I was wrong.

*Author's Note*

Before you all yell at me, I know that this was a short chapter; it was more like a filler to be honest.

I'm working on the next chapter right now, it'll be longer.

Love you all. ♡
