He came closer and closer and our lips touched. For sure, those weren't the lips that I wanted to touch and from the first moment it felt different, but for some reason I didn't want to stop. I wanted to justify my actions by saying that I was hurt, but that was too stupid, thinking about it later on.

Tears started rolling down my cheeks down to our lips that were still touching each other. Everything was mixed in me right now: the past pain that I felt from Lucas, my present pain and my desire to be loved and not betrayed by someone.

"What are you doing Bailey?" a voice called my name and that's when my senses came back to me.

I pushed Lucas away and couldn't lift my eyes to look at the person who called out my name, Damon. I know that my name's Bailey, I know it very well, but every time he calls me by my name I kind of feel offended. It will feel weird to those who haven't ever experienced that before, because when a person gives you a nickname it becomes the sweetest and dearest thing to you. But then, when they call out your name, it feels like they're taking that nickname away from you, like you don't deserve it anymore, like there's a new barrier between you.

"AM I INTERRUPTING SOMETHING? Damn, why am I even asking? Of course I am! I was such a fool for feeling bad about what I did and for coming here. DAMN!"

"No, no, no Damon! Listen to me please. You got it all wrong!"

"What? What did I get wrong Bailey?"

Before I could say something Lucas comes forward and answers the question instead of me, which you can already suppose was a really bad decision.

"Hey man. What's the problem? Are you sad that this time she chose me over you?"

"Get out of the way because I might kill you right now! I said get out of my way jerk!" Damon said lifting his fist to hit him, but then he stopped it in the air.

"On second thought, you're not as much at fault as she is," Damon said lowering his fist and looked at me with disgust.

"Damon! Don't you want to ask me why I did this?"

"Why did you do what? Why did you kiss another guy when you were dating another? Hmm, let me think. No! I don't think any reason will justify it. Oh and by the way I'm so sorry for interrupting you guys. I won't do that ever again."

"I did it because I was hurt! You were with Jenna all along and you kissed her and it wasn't even once."

"It was a game Bailey and that was the meaning of the game, to kiss," he screamed back at me.

"Then why did you play it at all? Did you even need to kiss someone? Why were you holding her before even playing the game? Why? Why did you not stop after that one kiss? Why did you continue it then?"

"Hey princess, calm down," Lucas grabbed me from behind trying to calm me.

"Don't get into this, you douchebag!" screamed Damon pushing Lucas back.

"Because the kiss I had didn't mean anything to me. It was a game and yours wasn't a game. And why did you kiss this douchebag after thinking what I did was wrong? Why Bailey? Can you answer that question? You did the same thing I did. How can you blame me then? I'm leaving. Bye. Oh and by the way you can just think that I didn't interrupt you. Go ahead, continue whatever you were doing. You can even sleep with each other. I don't care," he said and he turned away from me.

"No! Damon! Wait!" I said wanting to go after him, but Lucas hugged me from behind not letting me go after him.

"Lucas, let me go of me. I have go after him! Let go!" I screamed and sat down on the floor crying.

Lucas hugged me once again and started caressing me.

"It's alright princess. Don't worry about him anymore."

"Lucas go away. I don't want to see you. Just go."

"But we have to talk about us, about this, about the kiss," he said caressing my cheek.

I turned my head away so he doesn't touch it anymore.

"There's no us. There hasn't been 'us' for a very long time and there won't be."

"Come on princess. You can't lie to me. You even kissed me back, you can't resist our connection either," he whispered sliding his fingers down my arm.

I took steps forward toward the door of my house.

"I said what I said Lucas. There won't ever be 'us', so go ahead and find yourself someone else. I just played you a couple of seconds ago like you played me," I said wiping my tears and closing the door in his face.

"Uhm...Bailey?What's going on? What's that screaming....all...about?" Meggy mumbled in a sleepy voice.

"It's nothing Megs, just sleep for now, I'll explain everything tomorrow. Oh and also, just so you know I'm going to meet Damon, I have to talk to him."

"Now?" she asked still in a sleepy voice.

"Yes, but don't worry about me. I'll tell you everything when you wake up. I'm taking one of the keys with me, but please close the door from the inside too. Bye."

"Bye," she said and I immediately left after that.

I saw that Damon didn't take his car when coming to my house, so he had to be somewhere nearby, he wouldn't be able get to a far place by now. I might even be able to find him, if I run. I've seen in which direction he went, so I started running to find him.

I ran do quickly I could hear my own heartbeat, but I didn't care. I knew I had to find him, we had to make everything alright.

It's so strange that these days I always see some guys beating each other. Come on guys. Can't you just talk or even scream? What's the beating all about.

Whatever, now I had to find Damon and that's what matters. But suddenly I heard a familiar voice coughing and powerlessly saying some words.

"Stop. What did I do wrong now? I didn't do anything wrong. Stop."

I have already passed them when I turned back to see that the guy that was getting beaten was none other than Damon. He was bleeding from different places and was coughing blood and those were the same guys that I've seen before too. I immediately ran up to them taking a piece of wood I found on the floor.

"YOU STUPID IDIOTS GET AWAY FROM HERE OR ELSE I'LL CALL THE POLICE! RIGHT THIS INSTANT! LEAVE BASTARDS!!!!!I SAID LEAVE!"

"Hahah Damon, did you make it a habitual thing for you to be always saved by your ugly girlfriend? You're so lame. Right guys? Hahah you girls deserve each other! Let's go for now, but we're not done with you Damon or should we say Damienne?" they got into a car and left laughing so loud that I think the whole street could hear them.

My hands were trembling from fear and I finally dropped the piece of wood down and felt down myself too. My feet couldn't keep me standing anymore. I crawled closer to Damon who was bleeding and wasn't saying anything at all. Just because he wasn't talking to me, he wouldn't even show that it hurt, which I'm sure it did.

"Damon, let me see. Where does it hurt? I want to help you," I said in a low voice bringing my hand to his cheek.

He pushed my hand away.

"I don't need your help. Go help that douchebag who might need more of your kisses PRINCESS," he said slowly getting up.

Whenever he was struggling to get up, I tried to help him, but he didn't let me do that. All the attempts were being rejected like the previous ones.

I got up too, even though my legs were still trembling. I started walking behind him, silently, without saying a single word I was following him. Blood was still dropping from his face and fists quickly touching the ground.

But what surprised me today was the fact that he wasn't fighting back. Yes, he was telling them to stop or something, but during the previous times he still tried to fight back.

What are you thinking about Damon?

We walked for like 25 minutes and reached his house. He didn't look back knowing I was there, behind him and just walked toward the door.

"I will wait here until you come out. I'm not going anywhere until we talk," I said and he stopped for a moment, heard what I said and then silently went in.

I sat somewhere near the door and waited for him to come out, though I didn't know whether he'd do that or not.

After waiting for almost an hour, I started feeling cold. Maybe it was because the weather was windy? I don't think so though. I felt cold and not because of the weather.
