Chapter 6: Regrets
I walked into school, as miserable at ever. Andy was taken, and that's all there is to it! But why do I feel so sad and depressed? Did I honestly believe Renee was no good for Andy? I thought about it. Yes, I did. I was so jealous of them!
"Oh, my gosh, Lizzie! Did you hear the gossip? Oh, but of course you didn't!" Lauren said. She knew I was never one to listen to gossip. I looked at her, a bored expression set upon my face. It's probably about some new kid in the school or something. She looked at me, a glint of excitement in her eye, and a flare of impatience. Her face twitched a little, and for a moment she didn't look like my good, patient friend. She looked like she was an angry, short-tempered girl.
"Andy broke up with Renee!" The stranger was gone, and replaced by my old best friend. The bored look on my face morphed into a shocked one.
"WHAT?" I screamed. It couldn't be true! I waved quickly at Lauren and rushed to find Andy. He was leaning against his locker, looking tired and depressed. I glanced to left, where Renee's locker was, and Renee grabbing a few books and leaving. Though I managed catch a glimpse of her face before she left. It was blotchy, her eyes were red and tears were still streaming down her cheeks. I saw Andy glance guiltily and anxiously at her. He seemed to be genuinely worried.
"Hey," I said quietly. Renee heard me talking to Andy, though, and she shot a ferocious glare at me. There was accusation in her eyes, as though it was my fault they broke up. "I heard you and Renee broke up?" He looked away and nodded. I felt stunned.
"Do you want to talk about it?" I asked tentatively: partly because I wanted the information, partly because I couldn't stand seeing him so sad. He looked at me this time. I nearly fainted as he stared into my eyes. Those beautiful pair eyes that sparkled with kindness and cheekiness. I blinked, shaking myself out of my transfixed state. He looked away, too and nodded, to answer my question. I smiled slightly and grabbed his forearm, dragging him to a deserted and quiet place. He followed me blankly, as though his mind was drifting to another place.
"OK." I said. He blinked rapidly, as though trying to focus. "Start talking." He gazed at me like he just realized I was there.
"Um," He mumbled. "Well, I called Renee after you went back into your house. And, err, we, um, talked. And, um, I told her I, um, liked, um, someone else." My heart picked up pace. Someone else? Who?
"And, um, she started hyperventilating. And, um, I had to get her to calm down because she was screaming at me about committing suicide and um, that she couldn't live without me... " He trailed off. My throat tightened. I was close to tears now. He was obviously going back to her, so he wouldn't date me after all. I could feel myself dying inside.
"Anyway, she demanded to know who I was dumping her for, and I said..." He trailed off nervously. I looked up and saw him staring at me.
"Leslie." He finished. I stared at him, shocked, though it didn't last for long. It was replaced by the blissful feeling of being kissed... by the guy I've been trying to forget without anything holding us back.
Three weeks later
*********************
It was the BEST three weeks of my entire life. Dating Andy was the best thing that could EVER happen to me. He's just so sweet, romantic and the best boyfriend any girl could ever have. No wonder Renee's always shooting daggers at me whenever she sees me: it's a big thing to lose! I smiled at the thought. Renee used to be sweet and kind, but now that I 'stole' her boyfriend, she's been trying to do all kinds of stuff to me. And trying to get Andy back. Twice I caught them arguing and every time she saw me she'd lean in and try to kiss Andy. He'd duck away, thank goodness but she doesn't stop. She keeps trying to get his attention, too. She even flashed him in front of me. Ew.
"Hey, babe," a voice said. I looked around, and saw the guy I've been dreading: Eric. I glared at him. He stared seductively back, nearly making me barf. Did I mention I was at the movies waiting for Andy to come with the drinks and popcorn?
"I'm not your babe, jackass!" I spat. I honestly didn't understand him. I just kicked his ass 3 weeks ago and he's still flirting with me? Isn't he actually worried that I'd do that to him again. He smirked and stepped closer. I nearly punched him. How f*cking dare he? Honestly!
"Well..." He whispered into my ear, stroking my earlobe. I shivered in disgust and ducked out of his reach. "Oh, no you don't!" He said and grabbed me. I kicked him in the gut and he let go of me. I made to run for it but he recobered so quick it was unbelievable. This time he twisted me around and kissed me so quickly I was momentarily frozen. A loud gasp made me break away from Eric, though. It was Andy. He looked at me like he'd never seen me before and after a stunned moment, he turned and stalked off. I spun around to face Eric, slapped him and ran after Andy.
"Andy! Andy! Wait!" I called desperately. He turned around to face me, ferocity etched into every line of his face. I flinched backwards: I'd never seen him like this before.
"What?" he spat.
"Andy, you got it all wrong! Eric kissed me, and I didn't kiss him back!" I defended myself. He considered me for a moment.
"You looked quite happy too me."
"I wasn't! Honest!" But I could see from his face that he didn't believe me. He glared at me one last time and stalked towards his car.
"Please!" But he ignored me. Then I pounded on the window of his car and he wound down his window.
"You know what?" He yelled. "I'm hate you! How could you do this to me? I liked you a lot: so much I broke up with Renee for you! But you know what? I regret it! It was the WORST decision I'd ever made! Now get out of my life and don't come back, b*tch!" I flinched back, immensely hurt. How could he say those things to me? Did he not understand? I left it though, and turned back, walking towards the exit.Tears filled my eyes and rage built up inside of me. This was all me and Eric's fault! Eric because he f*cking forced himself on me and me because I didn't punch him without hesitation! Why was I so soft? I HATE myself! I ran towards Eric, where he stood, looking extremely satisfied.
"Knew you'd came back, sexy," He tried to kiss me but this time I didn't let him. I kicked him where it counts again and punched his face. Then I stabbed my high heels into his stomach and yanked his hair so hard a whole lot of them came off. I punched and heard a satisfyingly loud crack, picked him up by the scruff of his neck and threw him back on the floor. For the finishing touches, I picked up his hand, laid his elbow on my leg and broke his arm.
"Don't," I spat, shaking with anger. "Ever mess with me again. Or I swear, I swear I'll break your useless piece of shit as a neck!" I screamed at him. People were staring at the bloodied mess but I didn't care. The guards were heading towards me now but I didn't care either. "If you ever so much as touch me again, I f*cking swear I'll kill you! D'you understand? I'll f*cking kill you, you bastard!" With that I spat into his disgusting face and turned on my heel, leaving the place. The guards backed away as I left, apparently too scared to do anything.
I hated my life. I loathed Eric. I... love and hated Andy.
