I can't believe he dared to call me a whore. It's not like I had planned on kissing Dylan. It just happened. Even then, a kiss doesn't compare to the fact that he's been sleeping with someone else. This is not how I imagined this year going. I drew a ragged breath before texting Leila. I could really use my best friend right about now. A couple of minutes later, Leila was at my house with a tub of ice cream and an overnight bag. I guess I looked like shit because when she looked at my face, she instantly came over to hug me.

"What happened, sweetie?"

And for whatever reason I found her calling me sweetie funny, but my uncontrollable laughter soon turned to full-blown sobs as I began to tell her what happened.

After I told her what happened, I calmed down a bit and waited for Leila's response.

"I'm so sorry, Nessa. Emmett's such a dick." Leila said, and I burst out laughing.

"He wasn't always a dick, though. The way our relationship shifted so easily is scary."

"Well it's his loss, you're smokin' hot! Plus now Dylan can have you all to himself." Leila said, smirking at me.

"Shut up."

"Do you think you could ever forgive him?"

"Honestly I don't know. He's someone I thought would always be in my life, but how do you move past something like this?"

Leila shrugged. "It's been done before but I'm sure that it's different for everyone. What do you feel in your heart?"

"For him? Nothing but hurt and anger. Like, It would be nice to say that we could power through this together. It really would, but I honestly don't feel that way right now. It's not like it happened one time and he immediately came to me about it. It happened multiple time and he fully intended to keep it from me."

Leila nodded her head.

"He shouldn't be able to say and do whatever the hell he wants. You deserver better."

Leila embraced me and I hugged her back tightly. I don't know what I would have done if she wasn't here.

We spent the rest of the night eating ice cream and looking at movies.

"Get up!" Leila screamed in my ear.

"God, if I didn't love you, you'd be so dead right now Leila," I mumbled groaning into my pillow.

"But you do love me so get your ass up," Leila said zipping downstairs.

How the hell does she have so much energy in the morning? I took a shower and got dressed. When I got downstairs, I found Leila in the kitchen eating cereal.

"Oooh, you look hot today.." Leila said approvingly

I laughed. "Thank you, thank you.."

When we got to school, Emmett saw me and went to kiss Bianca. Really? What the hell has gotten into him? I rolled my eyes in disgust and Emmett immediately smirks when he sees me watching them. If he thinks I'm jealous than he has another thing coming. He could lower his standards all he wanted to.

"What are you going to do?" Leila asked.

"You'll see," I said, walking past Emmett and wrapping my arms around Dylan.

Dylan returned the hug and smiled down at me. "Hey, beautiful." He said, caressing my cheek.

"Hey wanna walk me to class?" I asked, smiling up at him.

"Of course. Who wouldn't want to walk beside a beautiful girl like you?" Dylan said, grabbing my hand, causing me to blush.

When we headed to class, I saw Leila's mouth hanging open and Emmett glaring at Dylan.

Who's jealous now, asshole!

"Do you wanna get some ice cream after school?"

"Sure," I said as I sat down in my seat.

I kept trying to pay attention, but the thought of Dylan and me soon took over my mind. I'm not sure what we were to each other anymore. Are we good friends, or are we more than that? I mean he calls me babe and gives me soft, sweet, yet passionate kisses. Hell, I don't even know if Emmett and I are even still a couple! This was getting messy fast and I needed to get my shit together.

I was so surprised when lunch came. I spent most of the day in my own world and barely paid attention in class. When I walked into the lunchroom, I saw Bianca sitting on Emmett's lap. Oh, I'm so done. Whatever game Emmett's trying to play he's going to have to play by himself. Trevor and Michael caught my eye and mouthed sorry. I shook my head and smiled at them; they had no reason to be sorry. It wasn't their fault Emmett was turning out to be a monumental ass.

"I'm going to take a good guess and say we're not sitting over there," Leila said in my ear.

"Definitely not," I said, grabbing two slices of pizza and a mango madness Snapple.

When I got to Dylan's table, they weren't any more chairs. I was going to go pull up a seat until Dylan grabbed my hand.

"Where are you going?"

"To go grab a chair." Dylan shook his head and pulled me into his lap.

I giggled when I felt him nip at my ear playfully. I saw Leila blush a deep red when Rafe pulled her into his lap.

"It seems your brother has taken a liking to my friend," I said to Dylan.

"Yea I noticed. They seem to be enjoying each other."

I looked at him and bit my lip. This man was almost annoyingly attractive. I would love to enjoy a piece of him.

Dylan narrowed his eyes at me. "Behave."

My eyebrows shot up. "What I do?"

"You're giving me a real dangerous look right now."

I felt my cheeks heat up and buried my head in his chest. I didn't realize I was being that obvious.
