Hello people that are quite possibly reading this! J This is my first ever fan fiction! I'm not sure if anyone's going to like it, but *fingers crossed* I really hope I can improve my writing skills this way. My English teacher says I suck, but what does she know? She's only a teacher who's been teaching for about twenty years haha well okay please read and review. Even if it's to tell me I suck and should jump off a bridge and die, it's all welcomed. :P
Disclaimer: (Everyone puts this on theirs) I don't own a single thing. Sad, I know.
Sum 41 Pieces
I tried to be perfect
But nothing was worth it
I don't believe it makes me real
I thought it'd be easy
But no one believes me
I meant all the things I said
Summer Before Junior Year
"So what, you're just going to throw us away?" she said, her eyes blazing. "Everything we've been through the last year, just gone like that?"
"Look, Ashley, you just don't get it," the other girl said, with a slight annoyed tone in her voice, "You and I just don't have that connection anymore. You never listen to me. You never consider my feelings anymore. You just do what you want."
"Oh, come on, Mary." Ashley said frustrated. "What are you talking about? Everything I've been doing is because of you. Everything I've done was for you. I brought my grades up because you told me to, I stopped doing drugs, I party only during the weekends now. I've done everything I could to be perfect for you."
"Look, Ashley," Mary said, looking away from her girlfriend. "I get that you did all those things for me, but let's face it. We've drifted apart. There's nothing that can be done about it."
"But…but we've known each other since fourth grade. I've loved you forever. I've been in love with you for years. It's can't just end like this," Ashley said, her tough exterior beginning to crumble. "Please, at least give me a real explanation. I know it's not just what you said."
"Ashley," Mary said looking down at her feet. "This whole relationship is just too hard. High school is hard enough. There's so many complications and I'm sick of everyone looking at me like I have a disease or something. My mother can barely stand to look at me. I can't handle it anymore…and. And I've met someone. A guy. We've been seeing each other for the past two weeks."
Ashley looked at her in shock.
"What?" she choked out. "You've been cheating on me? Mary…"
"Look I know it was wrong to go behind your back," Mary said looking at her sadly. "I was going to end it between us before I did anything, but I don't know. I didn't want to hurt you."
"It's a little too late for that, isn't it," Ashley mumbled, sitting on a bench. Mary hesitated, but sat a foot apart from her.
"Ash, I'm so sorry okay? I-," Mary said before being interrupted. Ashley stood and looked down at her, feeling hurt and angry.
"No, just don't feed me any bullshit alright," Ashley said, angrily. "I don't want to hear it. You could have just fucking told me that you liked someone else. You didn't have to string me along. Just…just leave me alone from now on okay? I don't want to talk to you anymore."
"Please, Ashley-," Mary began, standing up. She took Ashley's hand. "I don't want this to end our friendship."
Ashley shook her head and pulled her hand away. "You have got to be really stupid if you think I would want to still be friends after this. Just…erase my number and forget about what happened between us. Everyone will forget about this by the time school starts…"
Ashley turned from Mary and walked away, ignoring her shouts. With every step she took, Ashley could feel her heart breaking even more. She was drowning in her misery, but she would keep her head up high.
If you believe it's in my soul
I'd say all the words I know
Just to see if it would show
That I'm trying to let you know
That I'm better off on my own
I know it wasn't that good and it was slow, but if at least one person tells me it was alright. I'll fix my brain and try to write a second chapter. J Thank you for reading. Have a nice day!!!!
