"So Derek was right he was cheating on you?" Dylan
"Yeah for a month." Marco
"With who?" Dylan
"I guess Ellie's ex-boyfriend Jake." Marco
"So he didn't care that you slept with me the night of that party?" Dylan
"Nope." Marco
"Well at least now you know the truth." Dylan
"No now I know that I've had only two boyfriends and they both cheated on me. And I don't really know why." Marco
"Calm down Marco." Dylan
"I am calm I just don't see why you and Chase both cheated on me." Marco
"I already told you, I wanted to experiment and now I know that I don't want to that I love you and never want to hurt you." Dylan
Marco just sits there. Dylan walks over to him and kisses him.
"I'm serious Marco. You mean everything to me, and I wasn't happy with anyone else." Dylan
"I'm sorry." Marco
"You didn't do anything to be sorry about." Dylan
"Well I feel like I did." Marco
"No I'm the one that made the stupid mistake. I'm lucky that you love me and took me back." Dylan
"I love you more than you can even imagine." Marco
The next day Marco is sitting in his room waiting for Dylan to come over. His phone rings and it is Chase.
"Hello" Marco
"Hey, can we get together and talk about what happened yesterday?" Chase
"I've got plans with Dylan today." Marco
"Well I really want to talk to you about it" Chase
"Then talk." Marco
"No, face to face. I want to explain why I was such a jerk." Chase
"Well I want to know but I don't think that I want to know as much to blow off Dylan to find out." Marco
"Well what about tomorrow or later tonight." Chase
"I'll call you later and talk to you then. I have to go Dylan is here." Marco
"Bye" Chase
Marco hangs up. Dylan really wasn't there yet he just wasn't in the mood to talk to Chase.
"What did I ever do to either of them? Why did they cheat on me? Why did I take Dylan back?" Marco thinks to himself
He picks up the phone and calls Ellie.
"Hey" Ellie
"Hey" Marco says sounding pretty miserable
"What's wrong?" Ellie
"What did I do to Chase or to Dylan to make them want to cheat on me?" Marco
"I don't know. Why are you asking me?" Ellie
"Because they wont tell me anything other than it was a stupid mistake." Marco
"I thought you and Chase broke up the same time Jake and I did." Ellie
"No I didn't even know you and Jake broke up until yesterday. When I found out why too." Marco
"I'm sorry. Do you want to hang out today?" Ellie
"No I've got plans with Dylan. For some reason I took him back." Marco
"Maybe you took him back because you know how much he really means to you and you mean to him and know that he will never treat you like crap again" Ellie
"Maybe. I'm sorry for calling you like this." Marco
"It's no problem. That's what best friends are for." Ellie
"Thanks" Marco
"Well I've got to go. Call me sometime when you are less emotional and want to hang out." Ellie says trying to get Marco to laugh
"I will" Marco says with a little bit of a laugh
Dylan shows up and they go up to Marco's room.
"I've been thinking and I don't really know why I took you back." Marco
"What?" Dylan
"I mean I have no proof that you aren't going to cheat on me again or that you aren't playing me now. I just know that I love you and want to trust you." Marco
"Ok so your not breaking up with me" Dylan
"No that is the last thing I want to do. I just don't want to be hurt again." Marco
"I'm not going to hurt you." Dylan
"I'm sorry that I keep making you say it I just want to hear it until I believe it or something." Marco
"It's ok I'll say it for ever because it is the truth." Dylan
Marco kisses Dylan
"Chase called me today." Marco
" What did he want?" Dylan
"To talk about what happened between us and why he cheated on me." Marco
"And why did he?" Dylan
"He wouldn't tell me over the phone he wants to get together and talk about it." Marco
"Well then do it if that's what is going to help you get through it I just want you to be happy and of course with me." Dylan
"Don't worry about that." Marco says laughing
"I'm not because I know that you love me." Dylan
"Yeah I do." Marco
"So when are you going to get together and talk to Chase?" Dylan
"I don't know maybe later or tomorrow." Marco
"Ok" Dylan
They spend the whole day together. They go out to a movie and to the-dot. At 10 o'clock that night they are standing in Marco's room.
"Do you know what today is?" Dylan
"Nope. What is it?" Marco says with a confused look on his face
"The second best day of my life." Dylan
"Oh yeah, and what was the first?" Marco
"That day that I kissed you behind the-dot for the first time." Dylan
Dylan kisses Marco.
"Well I've got to get going." Dylan
"Today was one of the best days of my life too." Marco
"Bye I love you." Dylan
"I love you too." Marco
Marco wakes up the next morning and calls Chase.
"Hey" Chase
"Hi, you wanted to get together and talk so lets get together and talk." Marco
"Ok, meet me at the-dot in a half hour." Chase
"Ok." Marco
Marco hangs up and goes to get ready. He is getting ready when Dylan calls.
"Hey Dylan." Marco
"Hey, What's up?" Dylan
"Nothing, Just getting ready to go see Chase and talk to him about why he cheated on me." Marco
"Oh, So you wont be up to hanging out with me this morning." Dylan
"I'd rather hang out with you but I want to know what he has to say about this." Marco
"Ok Well I guess I'll talk to you later then. Love you." Dylan
"Love you too Bye." Marco
Marco finishes getting ready. He walks into the-dot and see Jake sitting with Chase. Marco thinks "Oh so I could have brought Dylan along to hear what he has to say since he brought Jake I can't believe he'd do that to me." Marco walks over to the table.
"Hey Marco." Chase
"Hi" Marco
"Well I'll see you later" Jake
"Bye" Chase
Marco sits down and just stares at Chase.
"Ok, so I know that we ended on a bad note and I really didn't want us to end like that." Chase
"Well the day before we 'ended' I didn't think you wanted to end at all." Marco
"Yeah well, I knew that Dylan would pull you back to him so I went for someone else." Chase
"So you cheated on me because you thought that I was going to cheat on you?" Marco
"Basically" Chase
"I can't believe you'd think that. I only started actually going back out with Dylan as an open relationship thing the night before we broke up Chase." Marco
"Well How was I suppose to know that especially after what happened at that party?" Chase
"Ask me. I mean I wasn't going to hide it from you. I was even going to tell you that I was seeing Dylan again." Marco
"I'm sorry for hurting you." Chase
"No I don't think you are." Marco says angrily
"Calm down please and just listen to me" Chase
"I am calm and listening to you." Marco
"I didn't want to hurt you ever. I just really liked Jake since we met at Ellie's that one night." Chase
"So instead of telling me 'Hey I think that Jake is really cute' you cheated on me." Marco
"Why do I bother trying to explain anything to you?" Chase asks as he stands up and walks away
Marco just sits there pulling out his phone and calling Ellie.
"Hey" Ellie
"Hey, Do you want to hang out today?" Marco
"Sure." Ellie
"I'll see you in a few minutes" Marco
"Ok bye." Ellie
They hang up and Marco calls Dylan.
"Hey" Dylan
"Hey I'm going to hang out with El for a little while." Marco
"Are you ok?" Dylan
"Yeah I just haven't hung out with her in a while." Marco
"Ok See you later then." Dylan
Marco walks to Ellie's by the time he gets there he has tears streaming down his face. Ellie opens the door.
"Hey…Whats wrong?" Ellie
"Everything." Marco
"Come in." Ellie
Marco walks inside and goes to the couch and sits down. Ellie follows him.
"What happened?" Ellie
"Well I told you that Chase was cheating on me, well today he wanted to talk to me about why, and all we did was yell at eachother. He claims he never meant or wanted to hurt me but I can't believe that." Marco
"Why can't you?" Ellie
"Because if he really didn't want to hurt me then he wouldn't have cheated on me just because he thought I was going to cheat on him." Marco
"Well didn't you?" Ellie
"Not exactly." Marco
"Didn't you and Dylan hook up the day before you and Chase broke up?" Ellie
"Yeah but that was one day, He was cheating on me for at least a month." Marco
"A month?" Ellie
"Yeah that's what he said anyways." Marco
"Well then looks like I'm joining you in the been cheated on forever club" Ellie
"What?" Marco
"Jake and I just broke up a week ago after that Party at university because he didn't tell me about it and he never came home." Ellie
"I'm sorry El" Marco
"For what?" Ellie
"Always being really dramatic around you." Marco
"Its ok" Ellie says giving Marco a hug
"Thanks" Marco
"Well I've got to go see Sean" Ellie
"Are you guys back together?" Marco
"Yeah, Are you going to be ok?" Ellie
"Yeah, I'm going to go hang out with Dylan." Marco
"Ok." Ellie
"Bye" Marco says as he is walking out the door
Marco dial Dylan's cell number but gets his voice mail
"Hey this is Dylan. I'm busy and can't pick up my phone leave a message." Dylan's recorded voice
"Hey it's Marco I'm on my way over if you get this before I get there that is." Marco
Marco walks over to Dylan's house. When he gets there Paige is sitting outside reading.
"Marco What are you doing here?" Paige
"I came to see Dylan." Marco
"Oh he's not home right now." Paige
"Are you sure?" Marco
"Yeah why?" Paige
"His cell phone was off" Marco
"Well he isn't here." Paige
"Ok, Can you tell him I stopped by?" Marco
"Sure thing" Paige
Marco leaves and walks home. On his way home he is thinking to himself "What am I doing? Why am I so upset about all of this in the end I'm with Dylan which is what I wanted since I met him. Why am I not happy? Why do I keep thinking that I should break up with Dylan? Why do I keep asking myself these questions?" When he gets home he goes upstairs and takes a nap.
