Its is sad to think about sometimes.
People do lie, not every human can tell the truth forever. Everybody lies, it can be a small lie that wouldn't make any difference. Then there are the kind of "why didn't you tell me this earlier?" Lies that usually end relationships and then, the worst of them all. Perfect liars who lie to you until you find out for yourself that it isn't the truth. They sometimes suck at lying and some of them are very well good at it. Kind of like my boyfriend. He was very good at it. Yet I didn't know the truth, until it was too late. When I told him I loved him. When I gave him everything of mine.
"Orihime, I am not lying to you. You are the only one. I promise". He placed his finger under my chin and raised my head. Pulling me into a sweet kiss that tasted oh so bitter.
I known of his lies two weeks ago. Yet, I care for him so much I cannot break up with him. I just cannot do it. I was roaming the schools corridor and there I seen him with two other girls flirting with one another. He given the pig tailed girl a small kiss. My back was leaned on the pale yellow wall. I clutched my books tight against my chest. I couldn't stop my heart from falling apart.
What is wrong with me?
Every morning I start my day off with a cup of green tea, I get dressed then go to school. I associate with many girl in my class and some in other grades. I do all of my class work and then I eat with my boyfriend at lunch. I hated that part the most. Yet, here I am on the roof top sitting with him. "You okay?" He asked biting into a rice ball. I take my eyes off of my lap and into his blue heartless eyes. "Yeah, just fine". I mumbled. "Then quit acting gloomy. I don't wanna feel bad for somebody who can't say whats bugging them". He ripped at the rice-ball once again.
"Okay". I mumbled once again. He narrowed his eyebrows at me. "And quit mumbling too. It pisses me off". He bluntly stated.
After a quiet lunch I ran back to class. Every since I seen him with those girls I cut the time we hang out in half. I can't break it off with him. He will get very angry. "Rukia, can I ask you something?" Rukia looked up at me with her big dark eyes. "Anything." She put down her pencil giving me her full attention. "Grimmjow is cheating on me." After a few seconds of silence she sighed. "I told you he was a bad man. But I know you don't want to hear that right now. I thought that girl who follows him everywhere was a bit strange. How are you going to break up with him?" She asked.
I shrugged. "I have no clue". The pressed her thumb and index finger on the bridge of her nose. "Okay Orihime, he is bad for you. You are only seventeen years old. You do not need love at such a critical age". There was more silence. She was right. I was way too young to need love in my life. But it is so hard to cut somebody off when you care for them so much. "What will I do?" I looked up at her with tears in the corner of my eyes.
"Fine, I can help you but it won't be easy. If you are too scared then you can do it by text but that is one of the worst ways of doing it. You will have to do it in person and make him feel understanding". She grabbed a slight hold of my hand and looked me in my eyes. "Thank you Rukia". I smiled at her.
"No problem, Inoue". She grinned. She was one of the most helpful friends I had. I could talk to her about anything and everything. She always had good advice for me. It always made me happy to have someone as nice as her.
After two weeks I finally made the date. Saturday evening Grimmjow will come over and I will be straight forward, there is no other way to do this.
I gotten more and more anxious when the day was coming close. I began to ignore him more and more. Hoping he was beginning to notice it'll be over soon. When I finally invited him to the cafe we sat there while the sun began to go down. "Grimmjow, there isn't much I can say. But I am no longer carrying the same feelings for you that I had when we first met". We looked each other in the eyes.
"You are breaking up with me? Well, I am not going to argue with you and no I am not going to try and get us back together if that's what you are hoping for." He took a small sip of his coffee. I took a deep breath then stood up paying for the bill. "Well, that was a lot easier than expected. Thank you for understanding." I bowed and quickly rushed out of the cafe. I felt like a feather I was so light.
I called Rukia later that night to tell her the great news. She felt proud of me. "Actually since you are free tonight would you like to go to a concert? An old middle school friend of mine invited me and an extra person to go and nobody else wants to come. You interested?" She asked.
"Sure". I smiled she came over and we quickly gotten ready for the concert. I was hoping that it wouldn't be a bad band. They were playing at a bar but Rukia was cool with the owner so getting in wouldn't be a problem.
At the concert people seemed pretty excited. "Whats the band's name?" I asked loudly from the racket. "The Bad Guys." In the back of my head I kept thinking about all the other cool names they could have had but they chose a terrible, cheesy name.
The lights dimmed and the stage lights set. "How is everybody tonight?" A hot sweaty boy came onto the stage with four others. He had orange spiky hair and chocolate brown eyes. Now that I noticed, all the people in the crowd are mostly women. His voice was like tinted glass. My cheeks began to heat up. What was I feeling? Grimmjow was one of the most attractive boys in our school. But this boy was... Something else.
After the show I went with Rukia to meet them back stage. "Ichigo!" She shouted and gave the orange headed boy a big hug. "Hey Rukia, its been a while. How is everything?" He asked patting her on the head. I stood far apart not wanting to make myself look like an idiot. "Everything is normal. You coming back to school?" She asked with a smile. "Yeah, Monday. I promise to be there. I have the enrollment papers." He grinned. We all sat down on a couch.
He looked over at me. "And who is this?" He asked making his way towards me. "That is Orihime Inoue, her and I have been best friends for a few years now. Expect to go to see her a lot in school by the way." He smiled, looking me in the eyes.
"Hello, I am Ichigo Kurosaki". He smiled looking down at me. My heart was pounding right through my chest. "H-hello." I stuttered.
After our small introduction Rukia and I went back to my place and I let her sleep in my bed.
In the morning she was in the kitchen cooking. "Thought you deserved a reward for letting me sleep on your bed". She grinned poking at the half cooked bacon. "Awe thank you". I sat down in front of the tv and began watching some social media.
On Monday there he was when I walked in. Ever since the concert I couldn't help but think about him. He was such an attractive boy. "Hey!" He jumped out of the seat and ran towards me. "H-hello Kurosaki-kun." I waved at him. My face was as red as a tomato.
"Can I talk to you in the hallway?" He asked pushing me out the door. "Um sure?" I questioned. He gotten closer pushing me onto the wall. His face only an inch away. He gotten closer. I could feel his heated breath on my earlobe. "I couldn't stop thinking about you since the concert." He pulled away then kissing my cheek. He looked me into the eyes and smiled. My hear almost popped out of my chest. I couldn't get into another relationship. He was lying. There was no way.
I then placed my hands on his chest and pushed him away. "I'm sorry but no." I accidentally said louder than expected. Everybody looked at us in the corridor. "I'm sorry!" I blushed and quickly ran out of the building and into the courtyard.
He watched her run in surprise then smiled. "Looks like you'll be harder to catch than expected."
