Chapter 7 "A single tear rolled down my cheek…"

The weekend went by pretty fast for me.

He kept text messaging me every night, and we talked for about a couple hours too. It was getting into a habit of ours to talk for hours at a time.

The weird thing is, I never saw him in the lobby.

I still kept wondering why Maddie was so worried about me and Zack together. Because from what I could tell, nothing was wrong with him.

I walked into school on Monday, going to my locker, anticipating another note from Zack.

I did my combination lock, to see another note fall out to the floor.

I leaned down and picked it up off the cold floor, and then opened it to see that it said:

Lots of people mistake me for something I'm not,

But when I talk to you, you see me totally different,

The way I WANT to be seen.

I read the note slowly, and then folded it back up into the square it had been in before.

I had butterflies in my stomach the rest of the day, through lunch even. I couldn't stop thinking about him either, and I didn't know why.

I couldn't be in love. I mean, you can't be in love with some guy you just met a couple days ago, can you?

But, then again, I don't know what love even feels like. Since I've never had a boyfriend.

It's not because I didn't get asked out, because I have been, PLENTY of times in my 14 years.

But none of the guys who asked me out were the RIGHT guy, the guy that I wanted.

The day came to an end, and I walked over to my locker after Math, where I had learned how to divide the area of something and something.

I wasn't paying all that much attention.

Zack was at his own, getting a book out and putting it under his arm to take home.

Cody passed by him to tell him to hurry up, since they both had dentist appointments that afternoon to go to.

I was getting my book out of my locker, when I wanted to say something to him, you know, just because. I closed my locker door, and then turned to him, about to tap on his back when-

A blonde girl came over to him, saying, "Hey Zacky." She then kissed him, for only a couple seconds.

I didn't want to say anything now.

I forgot all about it.

It was out of my system of things to do.

I stood there for a second, soaking it in, and then left. I ran to the Tipton, just thinking to myself:

Why didn't he tell me?

I kept wondering why, but the answer never came to me.

Was this why Maddie seemed so worried about that I liked him? Was she afraid that I would find out, and then get hurt?

Well, if she was, she was so right.

I AM hurt, and I AM crushed by this. Why did this have to happen to me? I can't go through this.

I feel like I'm about to just cry my eyes out, and once I start, I won't ever stop. I would drown myself in my tears.

I ran into the Tipton, running to the elevators, and pushing all the buttons to go to the 23rd floor.

All I wanted to do was be alone and cry. And do nothing but CRY. It was a childish thing to do, but I had to.

It seemed like the only thing I could do now. I mean, what was I supposed to do, go skip down the street like everything was fine and dandy? No, I don't think so.

I got into my suite, and then went into my room, getting a water to drink on the way.

Then, I got in my room, collapsed on the top of my un-made bed, and started to cry with my face buried in the sheets.

ZACK'S POV

I saw her run away when she saw Wendy kiss me today.

I couldn't do anything, since I had a dentist appointment right after school today.

What am I going to do now?

She probably thinks I'm the most horrible person on the face of the Earth right now. Which is who I feel like at the moment.

I thought about the thought of her hurting, and seeing her cry, and then a single tear rolled down the side of my cheek.

AWWW!!! Zack cried!

I hope you didn't! I'll update soon guys!
