-Y/N POV-

I sat and looked out the window as my phone screen pressed up against my cheek started to burn me. I had been on the phone for awhile talking to Lloyd. I was currently talking to him about the weekend we were going to spend together. Me and Lloyd went to the same high-school together. We had started dating as of recent and it was heavenly. This was going to be our first weekend alone together. I had planned to do all the cliche stuff like couples do in movies or books. Like bake cookies together, watch movies together, and of course snuggle and maybe even kiss. I giggled to myself about the last part. Me? Kissing Lloyd?

I left out a sigh. It sounded magical. Unreal even.

His voice broke through my thoughts.

"Hey I'll call you back later."

He said sounded rushed.

"Okay that's fine."

I smiled.

"I love y-"

Before I could finish, the line went dead. I huffed. I was trying to say I love you which is how we always end our phone calls but he hung up.

I would get to see him at school tomorrow. It was still Thursday.

The next morning I walked into school with a giddy smile on my face. I was excited to see Lloyd. I scanned the hall and found him. He was leaned up against the locker with a stack of books in hand and was wearing his signature green hoodie.

I had stollen it a week ago when he left it in my locker. I know it wasn't an accident but I absolutely loved the experience. I soaked up his scent which was a hint of evergreen. He smelt like nature. Such a natural smell blended lightly with cologne was basically heaven. He was talking to one of his friends Kai. He was pretty cool. I liked his sister better but I wouldn't tell him that. His inflated ego would never let me live it down.

I heard the faint talking from Kai about doing something tomorrow and going to New Ninjago City.

His expression changed when he saw me walking over.

"Hi Lloyd. Hi Kai."

I told the two guys. Lloyd smiled down at me. I tip toed and kissed his cheek.

I turned and saw Kai fake gagging. I punched him in the arm.

"Oh get over it Kai! You and Skylor have kissed before and I know that."

I remarked back.

He rolled his eyes.

"Let's head to chemistry, yeah?"

I asked Lloyd. He half smiled down at me.

"Sure."

He said as he picked up his bag from the ground. We made our way towards the chemistry room and Lloyd didn't seem right. Even when we sat together during the teachers lecture, where I usually doodled on pieces of notebook paper and have them to him and he laughed didn't happen. The bell rang and he scooped up his book and took off. Leaving me.

I slammed my book shut and weaved through the crowd to try to get to him.

"What was that about?"

I asked as I caught up to him, finally.

"Sorry what?"

He asked. Not even hearing my question.

"I asked what's your deal! You stormed off and left me! We usually walk together."

My voice died at the end of the sentence.

"Sorry. I'm distracted today. I'm not myself."

He apologized, while leaning down and placing a chaste kiss on my forehead in the process.

For the rest of the day, Lloyd was distant. It made me sad. He's usually never been this "out of it before".

I went home by myself because I didn't even want to ask him to walk me home. It would've been the same way as he was all day.

I called him about two hours after school was over.

"So are you excited for this weekend?"

I asked. I twirled a strand of my hair.

He sighed over the phone.

I stopped twirling my hair.

"Is something wrong?"

I asked.

The line was silent for about a minute or two.

"Yeah I won't be able to hang out this weekend."

I could feel tears prick in the edges of my eyes.

"It's because of my internship."

He said trying to break my silence.

"You said that I'd get to have you all weekend. Why can't you just tell them that you can't?"

I said trying to sound strong over the phone line.

"Because, it's my job basically. It's really important to me Y/N. You know that."

He spoke.

I let my emotions get the best of me.

"And I'm not?"

I choked out.

If I could see him right now, I knew he winced by the sound that came from the other side of the line.

"Y/N-that's not what I meant and you know that."

He stated.

"See you Monday at school Lloyd."

I said, trying to sound confident.

"Wait-"

I hung up. I laid my phone and walked to my bedroom and flopped face first onto my bed.

Does he not want to spend time with me? Is his internship more important than me? Is his internship a girl?

Many thoughts similar to this raced in my mind.

I rolled up and quit thinking about it.

Saturday came and I was alone. My parents had left. That's why it was just going to be a me and Lloyd weekend.

But no. There was an "internship".

I made cookies, snuggled up in a blanket, and watched movies all day. I had got food delivered to my home instead of making anything. The last movie I was watching had my crying multiple times.

It was late and I home home alone so of course I was scared when I heard a knock.

I wrapped my blanket around my shoulders and walked to the door. I opened it to see Lloyd standing in my dood way.

His nose was bleeding, multiple bruises littered his face.

"Hi Y/N."
