I'm Just Me
Chapter 2
Author Note: Hi again I know I said I would upload the next chapter in the next week, but I couldn't get the story out of my head, and as I had planned this chapter already, I might as well write it out for you. Oh, and by the way, I have switched from past tense to present tense. I'm not entirely sure why. Enjoy!
Angela POV:
I wake up feeling sick. I can't go to school. It's high school, so everyone will find out about the Dustin Kissing his Girlfriend's Sister scenario very quickly. I don't think I can take this pain. I thought Dustin loved me. Ha. Shows how much I know about the subject of love.
"Not hungry honey?" Mum asks me as I leave my cereal untouched, 15 minutes after sitting down at the table.
"Not really Mum. If I get hungry I'll eat a cereal bar at school."
Mum looks at her watch.
"Ok Angie, well, I'd better get off to work now or I'll be late. See you later, have a good day." And with that she rushes out of the house to work.
Have a nice day. Yeah, that's so going to happen.
Lilith POV:
My reputation is ruined. Once our classmates find out about what happened yesterday, I won't be able to look anyone in the eye for ages. I wish I could rewind time. Not to change what happened, I still would have kissed Dustin, I really like him, but to make sure that it wasn't somewhere where Angela could see us. I don't regret it at all. My phone vibrates so I check my messages.
Dustin: Hey, I know you probably don't feel the same but I really don't regret what happened yesterday. x
He put an 'x' at the end. Ha, in your face Angela!
Angela POV:
As I arrive to school, Meadow catches my eye and runs towards me.
"Are you ok? Listen, I have some bad news..." she looks ready to hit someone.
"Tell me..." I say wearily.
"Well, when Lilith arrived here, I said to her that I hoped she feels sorry for what she did, but she pretended not to hear me, and then walked over to Dustin. He hugged her and they walked into school hand in hand. Everyone saw that and everyone knows what happened yesterday."
"Ok. Well, let's get today over with." Then we turn and walk into school, barely ready to face the many people questioning me about yesterday. I let out a huge sigh of relief as we collapse into our chairs in our form room.
But that relief is short lived. Dustin the Betrayer saunters in and catches my eye. He looks away first.
Coward. I think to myself. Can't even look me in the eye and face up to what he's done.
At break, he comes up to me and says,
"Angela, I really am sorry for yesterday. I don't know what came over me. I love you, not Lilith."
"Oh, really Dustin. Then I suppose you don't remember this text you sent me earlier." Lilith says from behind Dustin.
Dustin's face goes white, then purple, then red.
"That wasn't me! Beau got on my phone before I could stop him from sending it! Stop lying for once and tell the truth!" Dustin protests.
Then Meadow gets involved.
"You know what Dustin; you need a reality check if you think Angela would ever take you back in a million years. She can do so much better than you and deep down, you know it too. You had your chance, and you blew it. There you go. That's the truth for you." The people around us all move to stand next to us and face Lilith and Dustin.
"And as for you Lilith, I cannot believe you would stoop so low as to kiss your own sister's boyfriend! Did you not stop and think for one second about how this would affect Angela? No, of course you didn't because you never think; you just go straight into things without thinking about the consequences of your actions!"
All this time, I've been just standing here saying nothing. So I decide to have my say.
"I agree with everything Meadow has said. Dustin, I never want you back. I've just realised, you two are a perfect couple. Both of you don't care about my feelings at all. So good bye, and I hope you're very happy together. Oh, and Dustin, don't be surprised if you find her kissing another boy, she has a habit of doing that."
Lilith lunged at me, tugging at my hair and shrieking all the while. Meadow pulls her off me and the last thing I see before I pass out in the middle of the corridor is Dustin looking down at me.
Lilith POV:
Today is not my day. Everyone's turned against me, that stupid Meadow girl has a go at me in front of everyone in our year, then I attack my own sister and make her pass out.
What kind of a person am I? I can't stay here now, not after what I have done. I need to get out of this town. Now.
Author Note: It's all kicking off here! So, what do you guys think? Were Meadow and Angela too hard on Lilith and Dustin? Or did they deserve everything they got? Please review and give your feedback. Thanks!
