Yesterday in choir I was sitting in my spot on the risers and talking to my friends.
All of a sudden, Able and Emily walk up in front of me and hug. IN FRONT OF ME.
I was saying loud enough for them to hear, "Go away. Go away. Go away." but somehow they managed to not hear what I said and stayed there.
I got up and moved somewhere else, only to have them sit down in my spot. My only safe haven.
I sat down relatively close to Able, not on purpose, mind you, and started listening to Crime In Stereo because they're the only thing that I ever feel like listening to when I'm mad/upset.
As soon as I took my headphones out, I heard Able's voice; "so would I be out of line if I said 'I miss you'?"
That was our song and he was singing it in front of me.
He knows my weaknesses and displays them for the whole world to see.
I started crying and left as soon as I could to go to art and to get the heck away from him.
At lunch, I passed by his table and flipped him off. Probably an immature thing to do, but it was the closest I could get to saying "F*** you" without actually talking to him.
His whole table yelled "WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!"
My heart was beating really fast and I walked away to see Michael, but he wasn't at school.
I went back to my side of the lunch room only to be greeted by Able tapping my shoulder. "We need to talk."
Why did you flip me off?
Why were you singing our song in front of me.
My iPod was on shuffle. I was just listening to it.
You didn't have to sing it IN FRONT OF ME, though, Able.
Why would you care?
Because. It's annoying and dumb.
Because you're not over me yet.
... I really don't like you. At all.
I don't believe that.
Why not?
If you weren't over me yet, you wouldn't have cared whether I sung that or not.
Look, I don't want to say this because I'm not this kind of person to ever say anything like this to anyone else, but I realized that if I'm to hate anyone, I those who break promises. You made so many important promises to me and you broke them all.
I didn't break that promise. Just because I might be trying to, doesn't mean I broke it. Nothing has changed, Dakota.
Yes it has.
No, it hasn't. I still feel the same about you and I probably always will.
That's not fair to Emily. If you're still in love with me, you shouldn't be with her.
You're still in love with me and you're with Michael.
No, I'm not. I hate you, Able.
You're lying to yourself. If you were over me you wouldn't be crying.
I'm not crying.
Yes you are.
He reached for my face to brush a tear from my eye. I backed away from him.
You still love me.
No, I don't.
I walked off and grabbed my stuff. He tried stopping me in the hall way.
"Dakota-"
"Just don't talk to me."
At the end of the day, my friend asked me what Able and I were talking about at lunch. I told her, and she said "He said that he sung that in front of you to make you feel bad."
Trust broken.
I have never hated anyone so much in my life.
