Everyone else was having fun with their potential other. I had just graduated high school two weeks ago but I still haven't forgotten what my ex did to me.
*Graduation ceremony
"Bruce! Where are you?"
I was trying to find my boyfriend admist all of my classmates but I couldn't find him anywhere. I tried calling him but no answer came.
That's wierd. I thought. He always answers when I call him.
I wonder where he is?
I walked through the courtyard trying to find Bruce when I heard someone making out behind a tree.
I glanced around the tree to see who it was. I was surprised to see my best friend was there.
I thought she wasn't into that stuff. I guess there's a first time for everything.
I was going to tease her until I noticed the guy she was with...
It was my boyfriend, Bruce.
"Bruce is that you?!"
But they weren't paying much attention to me, almost like they hadn't heard me at all.
I stomped on over to them and shouted.
"What the hell are you doing?!"
They ignored me still.
"Stephanie!! Bruce!!! Can you hear me!?!"
"Mmmm...Buzzz...Mmmm...Off...Mm...May..."
"Excuse me! What did you say to me?!! You're kissing my man. Just stop it already!!!!"
Stephanie finally stopped because she was annoyed, but didn't turn to look at me.
"Get lost, May."
I was completely furious at the both of them. And I almost gagged when she went back and started to lick his chin.
"Seriously Bruce?! Why are you doing this to me?! And Stephanie! You too?! Just why?!"
"Because he's so hot and sexy he just had to be mine." She said to me, "And above all else he doesn't want you because you look like a man. He wants 'real woman' like me. Right, Brucie?"
"Yeah babe of course. I've always liked you instead of that thing over there..."
I couldn't even believe what I was hearing and the tears were just pouring down my face before I could stop them.
"So that's it, Bruce?! We're over?! Just like that?!"
"We were over the minute Steph came into my life and saved me."
"Ooh...You're so bad." Stephanie said to him
"I honestly thought we had a meaningful relationship!!! When you've been cheating on me this whole time!!!! With best friend too!! Bruce Kendall!!! We are through!!! And you can take this and shove it up your ass while you're at it too!! So fuck you!"
I ripped off the necklace that Bruce had given me on my last birthday and threw it at him. Hitting him in the face. Stephanie got angry and came up to me and slapped me in across the cheek.
"You fucking bitch! Stay away from me and my new boyfriend!!! You look like a man, not a woman, so stay away from both of us! And I'm keeping this necklace too! What better way of being his girlfriend than wearing a necklace with his name on it."
She picked up the necklace from the floor and put it around her neck.
"And where were we...?" She asked him.
"Kissing and tasting your delicious neck..." He smiled at her.
When they started kissing I ran away with tears running down my cheeks.
I had never even known they were meeting with each other behind my back. But it's better to find out than spend your time wondering you know? And slowly I'm starting to move on with my life. I'm trying to meet someone new. But to no avail.
I may have lost the two most important people in my life but what they taught me was an important lesson: Be careful who you trust because they may not be what they seem.
I'm currently sitting in a private booth above a dancefloor in a club called Galaxy. I'm wearing an emerald green dress that exposes my shoulders and legs. It's hard to pull off this look with deathly pale skin.
My red hair is short. Not quite passing my ears. My eyes are blue like the sea and my freckles barely visible on my face.
I'm here looking for my new prince charming but so far no luck.
Or rather all the guys here were too unpleasant and just reeked of alcohol.
So as usual, I'm sitting on my phone, drinking sparkling water.
But who am I looking for?
I want a guy who's not just attractive... But sweet, considerate, fun to be around, and above all doesn't even question my haircut.
"Excuse me miss?"
I looked up at a guy with his hair brushed back with way too much gel. But he was just one of the workers and I already knew what he was bothering me about.
"Miss, you have to leave. We're expecting a private party and only people invited are allowed so yeah. May I escort you to another table?"
"No thanks. I'll just do it myself. But thanks again."
I walked down the steps but everyone was ignoring me because they already had their date with them.
After waiting at a table for about 30 minutes and recieving no attention I heaved a heavy sigh.
Until a man in a full black suit came up to me with a full wine glass that is.
"Hey sweet thang. Wanna dance?"
"No. I don't. So please leave."
"Ooh... I like 'em fiesty so cum 'ere."
"Wait what?"
"I said...come here." He said grabbing my hand and pulling me out from the table.
"What are you doing?! Let go of me!"
He ignored me and yanked me to the dance floor.
"Let go!!! Someone help me!!!"
"They're all too drunk to hear you so shut up."
I struggled against him but he had a firm grip on both of my wrists. And when I kicked him he ignored me.
"LET GO OF ME!!! LET GO OF ME!!!"
My shouting was drowned out by the music. But I refused to give up.
"YOU FUCKER!!! LET ME GO!!!!"
"You're staying with me all night babe. And I do mean 'all night'..."
"SOMEONE HELP!!! SOMEBODY!!! HELP ME!!! PLEASE!!! Plea-he-he-hease..."
He started sniffing my hair but when he got to my neck I bit his face.
"YOU FUCKING BITCH!!!"
He drew his hand back to hit me. But before he could I felt myself being pulled away from him by warm reassuring hands.
