Continuation of the last chapter
It’s been one week since I bolted from the cafeteria not giving any reply to Noah and one week since with our Maria’s bullying. It seems like the silence before a storm. I never thought that Maria would go to this extent to bully me, hurt me, and made me miserable.
I don’t know she did it intentionally to hurt me or it’s just a coincidence but seeing her smirk with a smug face screamed she did it to hurt me and this not only hurt me but broke me into pieces.
It was the day of prom when I and Maria were still friends we planned to come together without any dates. We planned our prom shipping till the time we get ready at my house because it is close to the school. We choose our dress colors too, Maria chose the red color and I chose wine color but we didn’t choose the model of the dress and waited to decide once we find anything on the internet but Maria had plans which involved bullying and treating people.
I still chose wine color for my dress and I choose to go with a ball gown in wine color. And I curled my hair with minimal make-up.
I still have friends despite Maria’s threatening. Joe and Stella are my friends who were with me and Maria and they chose my side.
We three got ready at my house and my dad dropped us here. I looked around for Noah but I am unable to find him yet. He said he liked me, if I have stayed a bit longer he would have asked me for prom but dumb insecure ass was having an anxiety attack then and bolted from there without saying or listening.
I hope to apologize to him and confess that I like him too. I again scanned the hall where the prom is full on going with all the students dancing, drinking some alcoholic drinks, and eating away everything they get hands-on. Alcohol is not allowed at this party but still, someone managed to bring it.
As I scan the hall, my eyes stop at a couple exiting the hall hand in hand, and by the hair color of the guy and maria’s minions standing near the exit with start in their eyes, I know who they are but thought my eyes are seeing things.
I should have stayed back, I should have listened to Joe and Stella to stay back and enjoy the party but no I have to go and see the last thing I ever wanted to see with my eyes.
My legs moved me towards the exit where the couple went like they have their mind. I stumbled across so many drunk students in my day. It feels like I am walking miles to reach the exit but in reality, I only took some steps. My heart is curious but my mind knows what is waiting for me in the end.
On my way to the exit, I stumbled across many drunk students who were so intoxicated and the part is not even completed half the time. Maria’s minions are still standing at the exit whispering to each other and giggling. They stopped their gossip party seeing me approaching the door.
” look what cat dragged here! Isn’t it the infamous Scarlett Williams? Who was the ex-best friend of Maria and who used her to become popular!” Stacy or casy whatever her name is yelled loudly with a smirk on overly done makeup trying to embarrass me in front of everyone, but not now. I don’t care if people are hearing or not. I just want to find out who they were.
I ignored her and ducked behind her to go out but still luck is not on my side as usual.
” woohoo, trying to escape! Nah! Party is still on Scarlett, come on! Let’s have some drinks yeah!” Another one of Mari’s minions said standing in my way to the exit.
” Sorry but I am fine and if you excuse me I am trying to go out,” I said impatiently wanting to leave their presence. They are just so toxic and it made me nauseous.
” why so impatient Scarlett! Come let’s enjoy the party first. After all, you are Maria’s ex-best friend.” They snickered together.
I don’t get it how can they laugh after embarrassing someone and bullying someone. Are they even human to think what is correct and what is not
” as I said I am going out and I am least interested in your company so now excuse me,” I said glaring at them. Inside I am a mess but I don’t want to give a chance to them to bully me more.
” you…..” One of the minions started but got cut off by Joe and Stella who stood beside me.
” it’s better if you don’t open your mouth Stacy because the party will smell like garbage instead of perfumes,” Stella said narrowing her eyes on both bullies.
“Yes, and please as scar said here no one enjoys your company here, it’s better to leave before I do something we both regret,” Joe said making a fist and glaring at them.
“Huh, we were going,” Stacy scoffed while the other one glared at us and got dragged by Stacy.
” Thanks, guys, I owe you,” I thanked my friends who always stood by my side.
” it’s okay scar, what are friends for,” Joe said smiling at me.
Thanking them once again I left them standing there to look for answers I need and curious of.
I sighed inhaling fresh and cool air closing my eyes and enjoying a second before the storm. I know what is waiting for me in the end. So I am taking as much time as I can.
I turned left knowing where they went because it is the place every couple would go to spend time alone.
As I walked towards the place I can hear sighs and moans, my already broken heart broke some more and I don’t get it how can someone’s heartbreak this many times. I am tired of everything and everyone. I just want to get with it and move on.
I took hurried steps towards my doomed destination and took a deep and shaky breath before yanking the door open.
The scene which is in front of me is that I never imagined in my life. This is something that will never be erased from my heart and mind. Tears streamed down my eyes on their according seeing them tangled together.
I never pictured this, it hurts, it’s too damn much hurts. My remaining heart broke into a million tiny pieces and I don’t think I will ever try to fix my heart or recover from this heartbreak.
The scene in front of me is my ex-best friend and the boy who confessed that he likes me is tangled together with clothes half undone, Noah has a pained and shocked expression where Maria has a smirk on her lips.
She knew I liked him, she knew I would have loved him but no she can’t see me happy that’s why she did what she did today but why Noah? What is his reason! Can’t he even wait for a week? Is this his love? Is it easily swayable? If this is called love then I don’t ever want to be loved or loved.
I gathered my broken pieces and left them standing there still in each other’s embrace. I hope it is still worth betraying your best friend and the girl he said he liked.
