*** Anastasia’s POV ***
That night, when I got home …let’s be honest, I was exhausted! I almost ran into 3 different people at the restaurant, spilled food on the floor, had to take over for someone in the kitchen, which ended in almost catching the place on fire! All because one person was on my mind, Niall Horan. I shook my head and walked up to my room. I flopped on my bed, and crawled over to my Mac Laptop. Let’s check Twitter, Facebook, and Tumblr. I sighed. All over Tumblr was One Direction shit. I scrolled down.
“Awe.” I cooed. There was a cat holding a banana to its ear. I scroll down more. One Direction…One Direction…Niall Horan…I am getting annoyed…
“Fuck Tumblr! I’m checking Twitter.” I clicked on a different tab, typing in ,“Twitter”. I smiled when I logged in. I got 12 more followers, adding up to a total of, 1,578,000. Yeah, have I mentioned that people think I am Demi Lovato’s sister? I must really look like her….I don’t see it. :/
“Ah, Facebook. I haven’t see you since…yesterday.” I logged on. I seen that Meme and Megan (My two best friends) were online. I opened up the 3 person conversation and talked to both of them.
Me: Hey
Meme: ANNIE!
Meg: Girl, where have you been?
Meme: Right? Ever since that, boy she’s been talking to came around, she hasn’t been hanging out with us.
Me: You guys! I Know I haven’t been talking to you a lot lately, but I have a way to make it up to you…c:
Meme: *Facepalm* Fine, what?
Meg: ……Hmm?
Me: Well, I thought we could all go to Cane’s for food but I guess if you don’t want to…
Meme: I’m sorry! You deserve your privacy, TAKE ME WITH YOU! <3
Meg: FOOD! <3
Me: Come to my house in an hour, with your money girls. (;
Meme: Kay
Meg: Byee.
Me: Bye.
I got off of Facebook and closed my laptop. I hurry to my closet, my phone ringing behind me.
“Oh, my stomach’s tied in knots I’m afraid of what I’ll find if you want to talk tonight Oooo Oooo See the problem isn’t you, it’s me I know I can tell, I’ve seen it time after time And I’ll push you away I get so afraid, oh no

Lucky me, my phone fell on top of my stomach. I picked it up.
“Hell-*groaning in pain* o?”
“Stasia!” My eyes widened. No, no, no, no, no, no! This can’t be happening. I dropped my phone on my bed, and backed against the wall. NO! I will not let him win this time! (don’t be confused, you’ll find out who it is later..)I grabbed the phone, and yelled,
“You, you- *thinking* bitch!”
“What did I do Stas-“
“Don’t you dare! Only my mother can call me that!” I was on the verge of angry tears right now.
“Annie…” I growled and said,
“Only my Friends, call me Annie.” I heard sniffling through the phone. Why the fuck this guy crying?? He is the one who caused my fucking pain!
“I’m sorry, okay!?? I shouldn’t have had done it with her, I should have stayed at my place, waiting for you that night! Please, please, please! I will beg on my knees, forgive me? *hiccup*” I sighed. All the memories with him, all the fucking messed up lies, rushing through my head like a wind storm!
“No.” I hung up the phone before he could say anything. I then let loose, and cried. I texted Meme, and Meg saying,
“I can’t go to Cane’s, sorry girl’s maybe tomorrow? Yeah?”
They replied back saying sure, asking if I was okay. I just said a simples, “Yeah” and put my phone down. Let me tell you who that was, you see…when I was younger, you know around the time of 10th grade. I dated the boy on the other side of the phone. Crazy, right? I was pretty pissed with him. But, I have a good reason, here’s why…
*Past*
It was the first day of 10th grade, I was hella nervous! I wore a suitable outfit for the first day, nothing slutty like every other girl, I actually was wearing a shirt that a YouTuber that I am obsessed with gave to me. My shirt was black, with words in purple saying, 61ack4eart (BlackHeart….), purple skinny jeans, and white chucks. I was a normie, oh! And I was also wearing a purple beanie. To be real with you I didn’t even like purple! Only the YouTuber I was in love with did so….moving on!
When I arrived at school later on, I was greeted by my friends I knew since 7th grade…Meme and Megan. They were Straight.Up.WeRiDo’S!! But, I loved them. *shrugs* Now, here comes the actual reason I’m telling you this. The guy I had a crush, WAS the YouTuber I was talking to you about earlier! I remember how he would always flirt with me in the 8th grade…and this is were the bullshit started between us.
*Past…10th grade!*
When he asked me out:
Crush: Hey, Annie.
Me: *blushes* Hi…
Crush: The school dance is coming up…wanna go with me? *blushes*
Me: Uh-hh…Of- course.
Crush: Cool.
He kissed my cheek, and walked away. Leaving me with his number…
When it was the school dance:
Me and Him were dancing.
Him: I really like you Annie.
Me: I like you too!
Him: Go out with me?
Me: Yes!
We kissed after that. I thought my life would be awesome after that day…I was wrong, so wrong.
When he cheated:
I was at my summer job, I wanted to get enough money before the last year of High School started. I was just finishing up at my midnight shift, putting the closed sign on the door. I grabbed my keys, and jacket and turned of the shop lights. Working at a Music store was tough but, I get to see people come in and play awesome music, even Genesis came in once. I smiled at the memory, but my thoughts stopped when I rounded the corner. A girl and her boyfriend, I’m guessing, were making out…in front of my car! I rolled my eyes walked towards them. I accusingly stopped, I looked at the couple, shocked. Standing there, lip-locking the girl, was MY boyfriend. Angered, I pulled him off of her, turned him towards me, and slapped him.
“HOW COULD YOU!??” He looked as if he’d seen a ghost.
“Ann-ie? Baby, no I’m sorry!” I rolled my eyes and turned to my car. The girl who was kissing him was gone. He walked over and yanked me back to him, wrapping his arms around me, signaling he wasn’t gonna let me leave.
“Get.OFF!” I was wiggling and squirming but, he was too strong.
“Listen, you saw how I was leaning against the wall. She kissed ME! She forced me, she knew you worked here. She’s my old enemy, she wanted to get me back for something. You know I would never hurt you, Anastasia!” I knew he was telling the truth. He only pulls out my government name when he is serious. I looked him in his eyes, trying to find anything that told, “He’s lying.” But, only finding Love, and Honesty.
“Promise never do it again?” I pulled out my pinky. He chuckled.
“Promise” He locked his pinky with mine, and kissed me.
After that day, after that month, after that year, the sparks between me and him…were gone. They vanished, disappearing into thin air. We dated for 1 year. I wanted to tell him that we no longer connected, so after work, I drove to his flat. Someone was already parked in his driveway, weird. I parked behind the car in his driveway, getting out of the car, and walking to the door. I remember he put the spare key under the pot but, the weird thing is…the door was already open.
I was worried but, calmed down a bit. I walked inside, closing the door behind me. I was about to head to the kitchen, where he might be at, but noises coming from down the hall caught my attention. I would describe them but….I can’t really describe a noise I’m not familiar with. I can say there was thumping on the wall. I got closer to the noises, it was coming from his room. I sat for a moment and prayed that he wasn’t getting tortured are something. I barged in the room…wishing I hadn’t. He was lying there…cheating on me…with the same girl 1 year ago. I was fighting back tears. He looked over at me, eyes widening. I choked on a sob. That was the same facial expression that he gave me the night that hoe kissed him! The night I forgave him so quickly but, IN THE END I GET MY HEART BROKEN AGAIN!
“Annie- uh- uh…” I look at him, shaking my head. I turn and walk away from him, from a lie, and from a broken heart.
*Present*
I was so in thought, I hadn’t notice me sitting on Niall’s lap, him rocking me back and forth on my bed, trying to calm me down.
“Ni? When did you get here?” He smiled, and kissed my head.
“I got here a few ago. Meme and Megan were at the coffee shop, I over hear them talking about you. We talked for a bit, they told me how you were supposed to be spending time with them today but, you called it off. I came straight over to see if you’ re alright.” I smiled. He cared…unlike that useless bastard that called me! We sat in silence for a while, until he broke it.
“Annie…”
“Hmm?”
“Why were you crying?” I chuckled lowly.
“It’s long story. But, I can sum it up?” He nodded.
“Sure.” I sat up, and looked him in the eyes.
“All you need to know is, who made me cry, Niall.” He became angry in seconds.
“Who did it? I kill em’ for hurting my angel!” He was about to get up but, I stopped him. I kissed him on the cheek.
“Calm down, want me to tell you his name?” He nodded eagerly. I breathed, I hated saying his name.
“2 words, 4 syllables, 12 letters…Jacob Midkiff.
