Chapter 1

“Wow Paul…your bass is amazing” she mumbled as she rolled over in bed. “John, take that shoe off your head…Ringo, you’re so funny.” Her alarm clock beeped loudly as she twitched and jumped up. She opened her eyes slowly and glared at the blue numbers. 6:15 in the morning was entirely too early for anyone to be awake! She reluctantly got out of bed and hopped into the shower, then dressed for school and ran downstairs. After eating two pieces of toast, she grabbed her backpack and ran out to catch the school bus. She would have driven her car, but unfortunetly for April, she didn’t have her liscence yet. So until then, she would be forced to ride the bus with the other underclassmen.

She pulled out her cell phone and sighed unhappily. Another morning without a text from him. Mark. They guy April was very sure she was in love with. For seven months they had been dating, and what a fantastic seven months they had been. Mark was everything she wanted; he was funny, smart, sweet, and he played guitar. Sure, he was a sophomore, but that didn’t phase April as much as she thought it would. She frowned a little as she saw “No New Messages.” He used to send her a good morning text everyday…but recently she was lucky to talk to him for ten minutes! ‘What is going on with him’ she thought to herself.

When the arrived at school, April dropped her stuff with her friends and ran upstairs to see Mark, who she knew would be waiting there for her. Only when she reached Their Spot, he was nowhere to be found. She walked back downstairs, not willing to wait for him again. This has been going on all week, and he has yet to explain why. The bell rang, and she grabbed her things and walked to class alone.

She went through the rest of her day in a daze, barely paying attention as her teachers droned on about things she didn’t care about. Her entire focus was to see him again. Hug him again. Anything, just as long as he was there with her. By fifth period, she hadn’t seen or heard from Mark at all. Suddenly she turned a corner and there he was. His light brown hair all pushed to one side, his hazel eyes so harsh yet loving at the same time. He was athletically built, at least a foot taller than April, just the way she liked it.

“Hey Mark!” He looked over at her, nodded his head in acknowledgement, and continued walking down the hall. She ran in front of him to try and stop him. He moved to the side, and she moved with him.
“Something wrong?” she asked. He didn’t even look at her as he pushed her aside and walked to his class. April could feel her heart stop. A lump formed in her throat as she walked to her class. She sat down next to her friend Sarah, who waved at her spaztically as she always does.
“Hey April! Did you finish Old Man and the Sea yet?”
“Yeah, all forty annotations. I actually liked it” she replied in a monotone.
“Yeah me too…are you ok?” she asked
“No. It’s Mark, he’s avoiding me, and I don’t know why.”
“Oh…I’m sorry.”
“It’s not your fault Sarah, don’t worry about it.”
The bell rang and April jumped out of her seat to catch Mark before he went to his class. Her stomach churned with butterflies, and her hands became clammy and shaky at the thought of seeing him. He sauntered down the hall, passing April without even seeing her, and hugged another girl. She planted a kiss on his mouth, and April swore she could hear her heart stop. Mark pushed her away and looked back to see April. She huffed and began to walk to her class.
“April, wait!” he yelled as he ran towards her.
“Oh, now you want to talk to me?” she replied sarcastically
“I’m sorry you had to see that, I didn’t know she was going to kiss me in front of you!”
“That doesn’t make it right. You’re MY boyfriend, or at least you were.”
“Are you breaking up with me?” he asked, sounding hurt.
She nodded silently.
“But…why?”
“You cheated! You lied to me, you’ve been avoiding me all week, and now you cheated on me! How long have you been seeing her?!”
“Sorry April…I wasn’t sure how else to tell you…”
“How long have you been seeing her behind my back?” she asked again as she held back tears.
“We made it official at the beginning of the week” he replied. April had enough. She brushed a tear off her face and walked to her class. And like before, she couldn’t concentrate. Her class had become a blurr, she couldn’t understand what the teacher was saying at all, and when asked a question about a problem on the board, she just stared at the front for about ten minutes before realizing she had been spoken to.
The final bell rang and she walked to her bus with her head down, not wanting to see if Mark was around. She reached her bus and sat in the back, blaring Help! by the Beatles on her iPod. As the bus went from stop to stop, she watched the other students get off with their neighbors, giggling and joking about their day, and just being all around happier than she was.

‘Not fair’ she thought as the song changed to Do You Want To Know A Secret. The Beatles always cheered her up, they were the only stable guys in her life. Finally she stepped off the bus and walked home when her phone buzzed. She pulled it out and nearly burst into tears when she saw who it was from.

Sowwy about 2day :( can we talk about this?

He spelled ‘sorry’ with w’s instead of r’s…never a good sign.

What’s there to talk about?

She hated texting in chatspeak. It was cool at first, but now it’s just annoying.

I didn’t mean for it 2 end this way

Whatever.

April, I’m srry

I don’t care.

She turned her phone off, not wanting to see what else he would say, and ran outside, tears streaming down her cheek. She continued to run until she reached the forest, where she and her best friend Leah used to explore when they were children.
‘I can’t believe I let him get to me so easily! This is what happens when you fall in love, April. You get hurt every time! How could I be so foolish?’ she thought as she ran deeper through the trees. Finally she came across a circle of trees, with lush grass and wild flowers surrounding them. Exhausted, she lay down in the grass and cried herself to sleep.
