Love hurts

Ch. 1- Breakup

"Please, Britt!" Alvin begged "Gimmie one more chance!"

"I've given you so many chances, Alvin! Breakup after breakup, I-I can't do it anymore!" Brittany responded. "You skipped one date too many."

"I said I was sorry" said Alvin.

"Yeah, I am too." Brittany's eyes filled with tears. "Because we're through, for good!"

She started walking.

"But I love you" Alvin said softly.

Brittany stopped in her tracks and turned back.

"Goodbye, Alvin" she said and left the room.

Alvin got mad, really mad.

He completely trashed his room, throwing books and sheets and anything he could lift.

He was about to throw a pencil but it felt heavy and he dropped it.

Alvin fell to his knees and bursted into tears.

Simon and Theodore ran into the room and their jaws dropped.

"What happened?" Simon asked.

"Brittany… she dumped me" Alvin answered through sobs.

"Again?" Theodore asked.

"No! Last time I dumped her! Get your facts right!" Alvin snapped before breaking down again.

Theodore was hurt but he knew his brother was hurting more.

"What was different about this breakup than all the others that would make you cry?" Simon questioned, helping him up.

"Because this was the last one, Simon. She wants me out of her life now. Damn it, I screwed up so bad!" Alvin wiped his face.

"I'm sorry, Alvin" Theodore said sympathetically.

Alvin sighed.

Alvin's phone buzzed and he picked it up.

"Hey, Ryan" Alvin sniffled.

"Dude, have you been crying?" Ryan asked.

"No…" Alvin lied.

"What's wrong?" Ryan wanted to know.

"Britt broke up with me" Alvin told him, not really knowing why he did.

Ryan snickered.

"Don't you dare laugh! I gave you a wedgie before and I can do it again!" Alvin yelled.

"Alright, Jeez. I just wanted to know if you were coming to my party tonight, but if you're not up to it…" Ryan says.

"No, I wanna come!" Alvin said.

"Yeah, get your mind off things, meet new people, have some fun. Get here by seven" Ryan told him.

"I'll be there!" Alvin hung up.
