Chapter 4

Janelle and I walked to my car and got in. I was sad; I wasn't sure what to feel. Should I be mad? I was so caught up in asking my-self questions, I didn't know I was crying.

"Aimee, don't get your self worked up about it, he doesn't deserve it."

"Janelle, I am sorry you have to see me like this. I am sorry…."

" You don't need to be sorry, those pigs up there deserve what's coming to them."

"I guess they do…."

After that I started the car and started to drive off. By the time we got out of the driveway I could see Troy coming out of the door.

"Aimee, that's not what Ben and I where talking about, you don't understand!" Troy yelled trying to get my attention.

"Yes Troy, I don't understand!" I yelled before I drove off.

I needed to get away. I couldn't take this anymore. Was Troy trying to calm me down by lying to me, or was he telling me the truth. I just don't know if I should trust him, what if I get hurt again? I can't let this happen to me. But yet I love him. I don't know. I had to get away from everything.

"Lets go to my house Aimee, you can stay with me for a bit"

I wasn't sure how to answer, so I just nodded.

It was a few weeks since the thing with Troy. I haven't left Janelle place, other than to go to school. Sure I seen Troy in the halls but I never made eye contact. By now it was 2 weeks since it happened. I tried to get over him but I just couldn't get him out of my thoughts. I had just finished English with Miss. Woolsey and I was walking to my locker. I opened my locker and grabbed my homework, and stuff it into my backpack. I heard someone coming towards me, I didn't flinch cause I though it would be Janelle.

"Aimee, I am sorry. I am sorry I am making you feel this way," said the person.

I turned around in a hurry, I wasn't sure who it was. Then I saw Troy's face.

"Aimee, please read this" Troy said while handing me a letter, by the look of it, it was quite long.

I grabbed the letter and walked away. I wasn't sure what to say. It was too much of an awkward moment. I walked around thinking about what happened, I didn't have any more classes, and so I decided to go to the Library and sit in a carol. I sat for a few minutes staring into no wear, trying to think of what to do. Even though I was mad at Troy, I needed to know what he wanted me to see so badly. I opened the letter that was neatly sealed. Just by opening the letter I could smell him, the smell I have been longing for. The letter read.

"Aimee

I am not sure exactly what you heard Ben and I saying. All I really know is that what ever was said it hurt you, and I have been down since it happened. Since I am not sure what happened, I will tell to you what did happen.

You see Ben and I were talking about you moving in with me to my apartment, and Ben had asked me If I had planed to have you out tonight at a restaurant, then you and Janelle came into the room, and Janelle was pissed and was yelling. We had no idea why she was yelling at us; until we got to school and heard like three different stories. Aimee I really do miss not having you around, and I hate you being mad at me. It's driving me crazy. I need to see you, so please meet me after school at the Pizza Gallery. Please.

Troy."

After I read that I had to see him. My anger for him had disappeared somewhere in the letter.
