My finger moves to the necklace; the necklace I got for her. Olivia quickly grabs the necklace and moves away. Why is she still wearing it? She has no fucking right to wear it. I’m so angry and pissed off that she’s wearing it as if she didn’t break us.
“I’m sorry,” the two words whisper from her lips, and I have to laugh. She has no fucking idea how little those two words mean to me. What did she think, I would see her and be happy?
“You will be.”

“You will be,”the words were said with venom, and I’m too scared to look at him, because I’ll only see hatred for me in his eyes I keep trying to remember Hayden who was my best friend, the one who made me laugh, or the one who wrapped his arms around me when I had a bad day.
I feel Hayden move a little closer to me, feeling his hot breath on my ear. My hands move to my laptop trying to focus on anything but him. “You need to leave.” Hayden stands up and walks away from me.
Jen stands up as he reaches her, and he wraps his arms around her, and squeezes her butt which makes her laugh.
That should have been me. We should have been laughing together. There are so many things I dreamed of which involved Hayden. Holidays, watching movies together, walking down the aisle and Hayden waiting for me.
Now, I watch him with another girl as my heart breaks piece by piece at the thought of him with someone else.
Hayden looks over his shoulder at me, and my finger moves to my necklace, but then a panic hits me. Both my hands wrap around my neck feeling for it. Looking around the floor, downmy top, then it hits me and slowly my eyes drift up to Hayden watching me with a smile. He puts his fist up in front of him then opens it, and my necklace drops in front of him.
My eyes snap wide, my breathing starts to hit me hard watching him take a step behind Jen.
No, no he wouldn’t. Not this, do anything to me Hayden but not this. Please don't do this. Please. I beg, but the words won’t come out, as I watch him putting my necklace on Jen, and a tear lands on my cheek.
Jen smiles watching me, and once Hayden has put it on, she turns around and kisses him, but his eyes are locked on mine as he kisses her.
He’s ripping out my heart and playing with it, before he crushes it. I wipe the tears away, grab my stuff and go to leave, but stop when Jen stands in front of me.
Her hand moves to my necklace, and smiles at me. “It’s beautiful, isn’t it?” I glance over at Hayden smiling at me as he takes a step closer to me, then wipes the tear away.
“Doesn’t my girl look good in her new gift?” The question makes me sick, and my eyes are back to my necklace around her neck.
He’s stabbing my heart, and there's nothing I can do to save myself from the pain.
“I can—” I stop, no matter what I say now, nothing will help me.
Taking a step to the side, I leave the class, because no matter how much I hate leaving class, the thought of my necklace around her neck, the man I love kissing her, hurts more, so much more.
I stand in front of the mirror, I feel naked without my necklace. Since Hayden gave it to me, I’ve never taken it off. I didn’t take it off; he took it from me.
I wipe the tears away, which haven’t stopped since I left class and pretty much ran to my dorm. There is no way I can get away from him, he’s in two of my classes, Abigail will drag me everywhere, and her friends hang out with him.
Where the hell am I meant to run?
My phone rings on the bed, but I ignore it, because I can’t talk to my dad, not while I’m still crying, and he'll know I’m upset with only one word escaping my mouth. The moment it stops ringing, it beeps with a message.
Mr. Cain
Can you work tonight?
Olivia
Yes.
I wait to see what time he'd like me to start; anything is better than being on campus and running into Hayden, or even worse Jen. I have to see my necklace on her, and that kills me more than anything. I take a deep breath in, trying to calm myself down.
You knew this was going to happen. You knew he was going to make it horrible for you.
