“What the hell did you do, Derek?” she yells at me. “I went to go see Rylie at work, and I walk in on her crying and saying you cheated on her!”
“Mum, it’s not what happened.” I tell her what Cecily did.
“You need to go find her. Now!”
I run out of the building. I go to the salon first. The girls are coldtoward me, but Erika tells me Rylie just took off. I rush out and run to where she parks her car. I make it to the car before she takes off, but she doesn’t let me talk.
I watch her drive off, then run to my car and take off after her. Not bothering to follow the speed limit, I get to her house in record time. Thank God she’s here!
I start pounding on her door. No answer. “Rylie, open the door! We need to talk!” I yell.
“Just go away, Derek. I should have known I could never trust you. I came to tell you that I was in love with you today. Thank God I never got the chance to say it.” She yells back through the door.
She was coming to tell methat she loves me, and she walks in on that shit? “Rylie, baby. You know I love you. Please, think about what you saw. If you do, you will realize that I wasn’t doing shit, but trying to get the bitch off of me!”
I get no response, so I start to pound on the door again. I keep at it until my damn knuckles are bloody. Finally, I turn around and slide down the door. I sit there on my ass, wondering what in the hell I am supposed to do now.
Chapter 32
Cecily
I leave Connor’s house, feeling something awful. I went to the bathroom when he passed out, and went to the wrong door. I walked in and saw tons of pictures of Rylie all over the walls. News articles, pictures with circles around her head,even ones with bitch scrawled over them. Suddenly feeling sick, I exit the room and shut the door. I peek down the hall and notice Connor still sleeping. I run to the front door, snatch my purse up that’s on the desk by it, and run out. I need to go to Derek. I screwed up, and I screwed up bad! Did I want Derek? Yes, but not like this. Never like this.
If Rylie is who Derek loves, I need to warn him, and her.
I pound on the steering wheel as I get stuck in traffic.

Connor
I heard that bitch go into the spare room. I knew I should have locked it before she came over. I pretended to be asleep when she came back in the room. Hurting her wouldn’t serve a purpose. I needed to save all my energy for that bitch Rylie.
As soon as I hear the front door shut, I quickly get out of bed. I need to get to Rylie’s and fast. I know that bitch Cecily is going to Derek to warn him. I need to make it there first, before that happens.

Derek
I’m lying in bed, unable to get to sleep. I should have broken Rylie’s door down and made her talk to me. I should have made her listen.
“Derek.” I hear Dad yell.
“What?” I yell back.
“You need to come down here.”
I grumble as I get out of bed. Is he gonna flip at me too? I’ve had enough from Mum. I’m not sixteen anymore. I don’t need to take their shit. I know I fucked up, but she wouldn’t talk to me, so what the hell did they want me to do?
I make it downstairs and see Cecily on the couch. “What thehell is she doing here?” I shout.
“Son, sit down. You need to hear her out.” Dad says while putting his hand on my shoulder.
“Fuck that. This bitch is the reason Rylie won’t talk to me.” I tell him. I look around the room for mum. “Where’s Mum?”
“She went to Rylie’s.”
“Talk, then getout.” I say turning to look at Cecily.
