As I walked over to him I saw him waving to me, I waved back. I was so nervous, so much was running through my mind as I walked over to him, then something weird happened; Eve came over and sat next to him. 'It's a bit weird he would break up with her for me while she's there, but okay.' I thought to myself as I went and sat with them.
"Good morning guys." I smiled.
"Morning" they said simultaneously.
I rubbed my hands together. "So what did you have to tell me Zack?" I waited impatiently.
" Well, uh I really don't know how to tell you this cause your my best friend and I know you want me to be happy just like I want you to be happy so well I guess." He was cut off by Eve.
"Were getting married!" she exclaimed excitedly.
I felt like I was going to punch her, cry and throw up all at once, I managed to hold it in. I was so wrong; of course it would get worse. Nick lied to me.
"Congratulations guys, I'm really uh happy for you both." I made a fake smile; I had to get out of there before I started crying. "I'm sorry but I'm not feeling well, I'll catch up with you later." I stood up and walked as fast as I could out of the restaurant. I could feel my tears spilling over as I left; I ran as fast as I could up the stairs, I ran straight past Nick who turned around and began chasing me up the stairs calling my name; but I didn't want to stop.
I ran into my room and climbed into my bed covering myself with the covers. I heard someone come through the door and sit on my bed.
"What happened?" Nick asked with concern, he tried to pull the covers off me but I held onto them like If I let go I would die.
"You lied to me." I muffled through my tears.
"About what?" he sounded confused.
"You said that Zack would see that the right choice would be me cause' there's no competition and I was a better choice than her." I tried to calm myself down but I couldn't stop crying. "And now he's getting married!" I snapped.
I felt Nick move off the bed and the next thing I knew he was under the covers with me he put his arms around me and hugged me tight. "Jay, I'm sorry; I didn't expect him to move so fast with her." He wiped the tears away that were running down my face.
"What does it even matter anymore, their getting married and he's just going to forget about me."
"I'm sure he won't forget about you, who could." He smirked. I smiled and turned away
"Don't make me smile; I'm not in the mood."
He got out of the bed and stood up. "Well I'm not going to let you be like this all day. I'll be back in a little while." He left the room.
I sat up and wiped my tears on my sleeve, I couldn't believe I finally got out here just in time for Zack to be with someone else. I couldn't help but tear myself apart because of it; it was my fault for not telling him sooner.
I was lying in my bed kicking myself for leaving it too late when Nick barged through the door. He threw a bag on my bed and put a DVD in the TV. He came over and sat next to me on the bed pulling everything out of the bag and spreading it across the bed. There was chocolate, candy, chips and soda. I laughed
"All for me?"
"No, you have to share or else I'll take it all away." He smirked.
I looked up to the TV and laughed, It was my favourite movie; 500 Days of summer.
"How do you know how to make me feel better?"
"What? You don't remember that time you had appendicitis and I got stuck looking after you? Well I didn't forget." He laughed.
I rolled my eyes. "How could I forget? It was horrible."
"Yeah, you were horrible to me." He joked.
"It was five years ago! I was 16, let it go already; I never asked you to look after me." I pouted and turned away.
"Yeah yeah alright just watch your stupid movie."
I punched him in the arm and snuggled up with all my junk food. As hard as he tried though I couldn't get Zack off my mind.
I felt something pushing me, I opened my eyes and Nick was standing on the side of the bed trying to wake me up. "Come on we have to go to the arena."
I buried my head. "No, I'm not coming." I tried to push him away but he grabbed my arm and pulled me off the bed.
"You have too, or else you will get suspended. I know you don't want to but come on do it for me." He smirked as he helped me off the floor.
"Fine." I walked into the bathroom and closed the door. I just wanted to stay at the hotel all night but I guess Nick was right; for once. I got ready and Nick drove us down to the arena. He got out the car and I just sat there.
"Come on don't be like this you're going to cause a scene." He opened the car door for me.
"I'll be however I want. How is this causing a scene?" I looked up at him as he leant into the car and took me out throwing me over his shoulder.
"This is how, now are you going to walk or am I going to have to carry you in there."
"Fine, fine I'll walk." He put me down and I grabbed my bag. We walked into the arena and we were making our way to Nick's locker room when I saw Zack. He was down the other end of the corridor we were walking along. I felt my heart jump into my throat I just wanted to runaway; I couldn't see him right now. Nick put his arm around my shoulder and guided me through a different corridor.
"Come on, we'll take the long way around; just for you." He rolled his eyes jokingly.
