Adrian's POV

I lay on the bed watching crap on the TV set and taking another sip from the bottle of brandy I had bought earlier. I could barely concentrate on whatever was playing, and I was starting to get the craving of a cigarette.

Grabbing the pack from the night stand, I get up and walk out onto the walkway balcony of the motel. There were a couple people walking in and out of their rooms. I leaned against the railing and pulled out my liter. Sticking a cigarette between my lips, I cupped the top of it so the wind wouldn't blow out my liter as I lit the cigarette.

Just as I inhaled my cell phone went off. I fished it out of my pocket and looked at the caller ID. I couldn't read who it was so being my stupid drunk self, I answer it.

"Hello?"

"Hey." I hear a soft angelic voice on the other line. I recognize it as Sydney's.

"Hey!" I say with a smile on my face, but then I remember the fight from this morning. "What do you want?" I ask a little coldly.

"I just wanted to check up on you."

"Well I'm fine." I reply taking another drag from the cigarette, just as two giggling girls walk past me.

"Adrian? Are you with someone?" she asks. Why would she care?

"Why? Does it matter?" I ask. There are a few seconds of silence until she spoke anymore.

"I wanted to ask you something." She said.

"Why? I've told you everything I can possibly tell you." I tell her, and I hear her about to talk so I go ahead and cut her off. "You know what? No. I won't tell you. You're just going to judge me and call me a monster. You'll go running and screaming, seeking protection from your best friend Juarez." I spit his name, disgusted by him.

"Adrian," she began but I cut her off again.

"What's the point in knowing when you'll just end up leaving? You know what Sage? I shouldn't have told you anything. I should have made you forget."

"You don't mean that." She stated.

"Oh yes I do. This was a mistake. Meeting you was a mistake. I knew it back then and I know it now." I say, taking another hit.

"Are you kidding me right now? After everything, you're just going to throw,"

"You know, it doesn't really surprise me why Keith cheated on you now." I interrupt her, and I put out my cigarette. I don't know where that came from, but I was still too mad at her and drunk to care at the moment.

"Fuck you, Adrian." Sydney replied.

"You did, and probably that Trey guy too." I say.

"Screw it! If you're going to act like an asshole, I'll treat you like one." She said, and then the line went dead.

I pulled my phone away and stared at it. Did she hang up on me? Rude. I walked back into my motel room, and tossed my phone somewhere in the room, laying down on the bed and passing out.


Sydney's POV

I didn't know how to respond to Trey's comment. I looked at Brayden, and admitted that he was cute, but I couldn't accept his Promposal. I have Adrian, and I was sort of hoping to go to Prom with him. I don't know what Trey was thinking.

"Come on, Sage. Brayden was going to take his girlfriend, but turns out that she was cheating on him." Trey says. Brayden gives Trey a "shut up" look along with an embarrassed expression. I felt bad for Brayden; I knew what it was like to be cheated on. I know his pain.

"I would, but Adrian," I begin to explain.

"I thought you guys broke up?" Trey said, looking at me confused. I sighed, rubbing my head in confusion.

We did have that fight this morning. Did that mean we were broken up? I didn't want to be. I mean, I just told my dad I love Adrian. We couldn't be broken up, this is was all just a misunderstanding. I hope. Suddenly, I'm not so sure.

"Uh, just give me a minute." I say and get up and leave the table. I pull out my phone and dial Adrian's number. I don't know if this is a good idea, but I do it anyways.

The phone rings four times before he answers.

"Hello?" He answers sounding confused.

"Hey." I say, smiling a bit.

"Hey!" he replies excitedly, and I want to giggle, but then his voice changes. "What do you want?"

"I just wanted to check up on you." I say only saying half of the truth.

"Well, I'm fine." He answers coldly. Was he alright? Then I hear giggling in the background, and my anxiety rises into bile at the back of my throat.

"Adrian? Are you with someone?" I ask, feeling a bit jealous but mostly hurt.

"Why? Does it matter?" he replies, and that was like a shot to the heart. Of course it mattered! Did it not matter to him? I decided then to ask about where we were in our relationship.

"I wanted to ask you something."

"Why? I've told you everything I can possibly tell you." He says, and I'm about to argue and tell him that my question wasn't about that when he speaks again. "You know what? No. I won't tell you. You're just going to judge me and call me a monster. You'll go running and screaming, seeking protection from your best friend Juarez." My mouth drops open at his accusation.

"Adrian,"

"What's the point in knowing when you'll just end up leaving? You know what Sage? I shouldn't have told you anything. I should have made you forget." He interrupts me again.

His words are like knives cutting open my heart. What was he saying? I could feel the threat of tears start to choke me as I held them back.

"You don't mean that." I say.

"Oh yes I do. This was a mistake. Meeting you was a mistake. I knew it back then and I know it now." He says, and that was the key to the flood gates. My tears fell down my cheeks, and I clutched my chest looking around hoping no one was looking at me.

"Are you kidding me right now? After everything you're just going to throw,"

"You know, it doesn't really surprise me why Keith cheated on you now." He says bluntly.

My mouth completely open from shock and hurt, I forget how to breath. I can't believe he just said that. I was so hurt, and so mad at him I couldn't stop the next words that flew out of my mouth.

"Fuck you, Adrian."

"You did, and probably that Trey guy too." He shot back.

What the hell is wrong with him? Why was he talking to me like this? Did he really want nothing to do with me? Fine. If that's what he wants, I'll give it to him.

"Screw it! If you're going to act like an asshole, I'll treat you like one." I hang up right as soon as I say that, and lean against the wall.

I look back towards the table where Trey and Brayden sat talking to each other. I couldn't go back to them feeling like this. Like my heart had been ripped out of my chest. I walked into the bathroom, locking the door behind me and looked myself over in the mirror.

Mascara had run down my cheeks along with my tears, and my face was all puffy and red. I grab some toilet paper and run it under the faucet. I keep the tears back as I wipe my face clean. I take in deep breaths to help calm myself down and the bright red in my face begins to dull down.

When I think I'm good to go I walk out of the bathroom and back to the boys. I don't sit down, I just stand at the table until they're both looking at me. They both are immediately concerned when they get a good look at my mess of a face.

"Sydney, are you okay?" Trey asks, but I look towards Brayden and see his blue eyes glisten with interest.

"I would love to go to Prom with you." I say. He smiles and stands up to face me.

"Cool, um … can I get your number so I can keep in touch with you?" he asks.

"Yeah, sure." I say, giving him my number. He looks at me with a cute smile.

"I'll uh … text you later then." He says.

"Sure." I answer him, and I nod and take a step away from the table. "Well, I have to head home now. I'll catch you guys later." I tell them while making my way out of the coffee shop.

"See yah Syd." Trey calls, and I wave back at him as I make it out to my car.

I shut the door close, and put my key in the ignition. I put my car in reverse and look into the rear view mirror planning to back out, but I catch my reflection. My eyes are still puffy red, and the more I stare the more I notice tears swelling up in them.

I sigh to let go of some of my emotion, but when I do it comes off as a sob. I couldn't hold it back anymore. I buried my head in my hands and just let myself cry out my frustrated and heart breaking conversation with Adrian. This couldn't be it.


A/N: What do you all think? Hate me? Probably, I would too. Review and let me know what you think. Well until next time… Adios. :D
