chap 10:

Pain.

All I could feel was pain.

Worse than the pain I felt when my mom died.

Worse than the pain I had endured when my dad used to beat me.

Yes, it was that bad.

I've heard of heartbreak before but I never knew it would hurt this much.

With Josh, It didn't hurt this much. For Josh all I felt was the pain of betrayal.

It was nothing compared to the pain of heartbreak.

I felt empty. As if all that was left of me was a shell. An image of the old me.

I felt like I couldn't breathe.

As if someone ripped my heart out, poured acid all over it and threw it back in my chest leaving me to suffer.

And that's nothing to how I felt. Because honestly I would rather go through that a thousand times than have to face heartbreak.

I couldn't stop the tears that clouded my vision before spilling from my eyes, sliding down my face before falling onto the floor.

I brought one hand to cover my mouth to stop me from screaming and the other to my chest to try to lessen the pain.

I heard Lizzy saying that she was sorry and telling Bex how she was too straight forward that she should've let me down gently but I knew either way the pain would still be there.

Bex was cussing and swearing about all the things she was gonna do to Zach.

Zach.

Hearing his name made me feel a pang in my heart. Goosebumps ran up my arms, making me shiver.

I didn't protest when Macey took my arm and pulled me with her to Zach's apartment and slamming the door open; Before leading us to where the boys were sitting in the living room. It looked as if they were discussing something important.

The boys looked concerned when they saw me and Zach asked what happened.

That was when Macey snapped. She threw the magazine at him and started shouting stuff that are too rude to repeat. A summary of what she said is that he is a womenizer, a man wh*re and a player.

When Zach saw the front page his face lost all its colour. His eyes held pain and regret. He started to explain but I cut him off.

"It's okay Zach, I get it. You like Tina. Of course you do, she's beautiful, funny and problem free. Unlike me who's a plain Jane and has issues." I said while more tears formed in my eyes.

"What! No-" He tried to explain.

"You ass hole! I swear I will rip your guts out and feed them to-" Bex said attacking him.

Zach was on the floor now with Bex on top beating the crap out of him.

"Bex! No! Please don't hurt him" I whispered the last part.

Grant grabbed Bex's waist and pulled her of him while she struggled against him.

"What are you doing? He hurt my best friend!" She screamed at him.

"Bex, calm down. You should hear his side of the story first" Grant said.

"Who's side are you on?" Bex screeched at him.

"Zach's" was his simple reply.

"WHAT?"

"Nick?" Macey asked.

"I'am sorry" Nick said before going to Zach's side. "Like Grant said, you need to listen to what he has to say, there is more to the story than what you know."

"Do you think we want to know how he shoves his tongue down her throat? We just want to know why he was leading her on? He knew the consequences of being in a relationship with a person from our band. He knew we were gonna find out somehow!" Macey argued.

"But I didn't-" Zach tried to speak but Bex cut him off again.

"I can't believe you would leave us for him! I thought you loved us! Guess I though wrong." She exploded.

"Were not leaving you! Were just trying to get you to listen!" Grant replied.

"Fine. But guess what were over. Were all breaking up with you. They always say 'chicks before dicks' right?" Macey said before turning away to leave.

We ignored the boys protests.

I couldn't stay in the room any longer, if I did I think I would collapse.

This is getting a bit too much.

We followed behind Macey but when we reached the door, Bex turned around and said "Oh, and Gallathorne is over. Were back to Gallagher girls and you the Blackthorne boys"

Dun dun dun! Gallathorne is OVER! what will happen next? review and find out ;)
