a bet worth waiting on 15

it may have been my turn to cry but i wasnt gunna.

all i know is that i wanted and explination.

"you fucking bitch" i stoped right infront of her cowaring figure.

"taylor please just let me explain" she put her hands up in defense.

"your supposed to be like a fucking sister to me, i cannot believe you, how selfish you can be, you just couldnt stand be being happy, so you went and slept with him, god and him, he's just another fucking alex"

"no no no it's not what you think, please jus-"

"you can fucking have him, im so done with you bridgette, what fucking family you are" amazingly i kept my calm as i turned around and began walking towards the highway.

"taylor please dont leave me right now, i need you" i could hear her begin to cry

i stoped and looked at her over my shoulder "oh im not leaving you now, im leaving you forever" and i walked away.

so that found me walking down sunrise highway about 4 miles away from home in the sweltering heat in pajamas.

in the past 10 minutes bridgette has called me a total of 27 times and chris a grand total of 40 times.

wich ment they were together at the moment and well they can just stay that way and away from me.

so that explains why bridgette was so against me being with chris hmm look at that! bitch.

my phone began to vibrate in my hand agian, so i checked the caller i.d.

i've never seen that number before in my life, so i decided to anwser it.

"hello?"

"hey tay" came alex's smooth masculine voice.

"oh hey alex, did you get a new number?"

"yeah i kind of had to once your crazy cousin wouldnt stop calling me" he laughed.

"my crazy cousin? as in your girlfriend?"

"my ex-girlfriend" he said matter of factly.

"oh she didnt tell me"

"yeah i bet she didnt, well hey was that you i just passed walking down the highway?"

"yeah"i laughed.

"stay there i'll pick you up and drop you were ever you need me to"

"no it's-" and i was cut off by a dial tone.

"great just what i need"

a couple minutes later alex's black jeep pulled up next to me, and i reluctantly got in.

"hey stranger" he greeted me with a warm smile.

"hi" i said with a grunt as i climbed my short self into the passanger seat.

" so why were you walking all by yourself down sunrise?" he asked as he pulled back onto the road.

"long story" i said fastening my seatbelt.

"well were to?"

"just drop me off home" i said flashing him a gratful smile

"well then we have time so tell me why"

by time i was finshed with telling him the story of what happened earlier in the day we were parked outside of my house.

"taylor i'm so sorry all of this happened to you" alex rested a reassuring hand on my shoulder.

"don't be sorry i'm still standing"

"taylor" his voice dropped low and his hand slid from my shoulder down my arm and into my hand "i know i hurt you but would take me back"

kind of shocked i stupidly looked up at him and what a mistake it was once i figured how close we were, i guess he took it as a good sign because he closed the gap between us and pressed his lips to mine, as quickly as i could i pulled away

"your just as crazy as she is! she betrays you so you come running back to me! im not a damn rag doll that can be pulled back and forth! god alex i hate you!"

i said jumping out of the car and slamming his door hoping all his windows would shatter.

out of the corner of my eye i saw chris driving up full speed in tom's silver honda.

this sprung fresh tears to my eye's, so i ran. as i was reaching the front door i heard the car come to a halt and a door being slammed and foot steps pound up the driveway. i pushed my way into the house and down the hall locking myself in my room.

with tears rushing from eye's i slid down against my door and held myself tight.

"taylor let me in!" chris was out of breath and obviously pissed, it even sounded like he was punching the door.

i just sobed harder.

"please let me in" he sounded tired

i couldnt listen to him, so i got up off the floor and made my way to my bed grabbing a blanket and curled myself into my closet closing the door and enveloping myself into darkness.

chris had stopped his banging on the door and i was drifting off to sleep when i heard the door knob jiggle and then click as it opened.
