'Oh, it wasn't a lie last night when you were on the phone with her but had your face in my--'
'What's going on out here? And why aren't the three of you in class?' the vice principal appeared around the corner and spotted us, just in time because, I swear, I was about to beat both of their asses.
I straightened the bag on my shoulder, fighting back my heartbreak, and headed to my class.
I couldn't believe that he lied to my face like that. I couldn't believe he was cheating on me with Regina. Well, we hadn't had sex yet, but what he did was still cheating on me, right?
After school, I wanted to get out of there so badly.
Evan stopped me in the hallway.
He must have heard what happened.
He pulled me in his direction and studied my face. 'You've been crying?' he asked sharply, sounding like Dad.
I had been crying in the girls' bathroom before the last period. I nodded my head.
'Where is he?' he asked, his eyes darkening, jaw clenching and voice getting louder with anger.
I knew Evan would knock Seb down, regardless of who was around. I wanted to sell him out but, at the same time, I wanted to save him from the beatings coming his way.
'I don't know. Maybe he's somewhere with his new girlfriend. Lets just go home Evs.'
'No!' He moved away from me like a flash of lightening.
I turned and saw him chasing after Seb, who was running for his life. Evan was right on his tail but Seb moved quickly. Not quickly enough because some of Evan's friends pinned him to the wall so Evan could get his hands on him. Punches flew out from Evan like a professional boxer, knocking Seb to the floor and making his mouth bleed.
'I WARNED YOUR ASS! YOU HURT MY SISTER, I'LL BE COMING FOR YOU!' Evan screamed as he hovered over Sebastian who was struggling to get off the floor.
Evan kicked him down again.
I ran to them, pulling Evan away from him.
'Stop it, that's enough Evs!'
He saw me crying, pulled me in for a hug, took my bag from my shoulder, and walked out of the halls with his arm around my neck.
I gave one more glance to Seb, he was looking at me. Both of our eyes were flooded with tears.
________________________________
Sebastian's POV
I watched my girlfriend walking away with her brother. I couldn't believe it was all over because of a lie from a pathetic jealous ex-girlfriend. The other night I was so exhausted after football practice, but I was happy when Emily called. We talked for hours. During the call I heard my door bell ringing.
I went downstairs to get the door. Who I saw made my entire mood change to that of anger and disgust. She should know better. She knew we broke up six months ago when I found her making out with my ex-best friend, Jimmy, the star quarterback on the team, and a senior.
'Hi baby, I just came over to tell you that I'm sorry and I still love you,' she said.
'I'm not dealing with you anymore. I'm upstairs on the phone with my girlfriend, Emily. I'm no longer interested in you, Regina, so please leave.'
I went back upstairs but she followed me into my room. I was exhausted, too exhausted to even be bother with her. She tried to kiss me but I shoved her off, which made her anger.
'You're refusing me for some spoiled little rich bitch?!'
'Don't you ever call her that! She's nothing like you!'
'I hate her and I hate you! You'll pay for this.'
'Get out of my room, get out of my house and leave me alone!'
She stormed out after knocking over a framed picture of Emily. Thankfully, it hadn't broken.
Then, the other day, Emily was furious at me. She said she saw a picture of me and Regina. I didn't want any pictures to be circulating of me and Regina; I didn't want anything to do with her.
So, today, when the bell rang for classes and I went to find Regina to put an end to all this drama she was stirring up. I knew she would be in the home economics room.
'What the hell are you doing? Stay away from my girlfriend and me. Just leave us alone!' I'd whispered, careful not to disturb the class, though the teacher was absent.
'You're mine. And if I can't have you, she won't.'
I pleaded with her again, trying to get her to leave my relationship at peace. But when I wasn't getting anywhere with her, and I knew she wouldn't give in, I just left. That's when I ran into Emily. She was standing outside the door, lancing me with her eyes, which seemed to be getting darker by the second. I thought I was hallucinating.
I lied to her when she asked me why I was in the room. I didn't take home econ and she knew that. I shouldn't have lied to her. It was the mistake I made because my whole world was crumbling down. And before I knew it, Evan was on me, pounding me with his fists and kicking me down.
I knew their parents would hear of this and I wouldn't be welcome, especially by her father. I screwed up everything and it would take a miracle to fix this.
I watched Emily walk down the hall and out of my life.
Emma's POV
Motherhood is beautiful, but it's not always smooth. I help my eldest son through his first breakup and my daughter through her first heartbreak. As life came their way there would be more of that, and I wouldn't always be around to help them, but, for now, I was doing the best I could for them
