You're My Favorite Addiction

He pulled away and I felt every muscle in my face contour, and tighten. I was shocked, sick, and mad. All these emotions filling my body. I opened and my eyes and saw his staring at me.

"Why did you do that?" I questioned, wiping my mouth.

"I've liked you all along, I just knew you'd never go for me. Phoenix, you're beautiful, funny, caring, loving. All the things I want." He smiled rubbing my leg.

How could he want me? He knew I loved Austin. Austin, oh my god Austin. What was I going to tell him? I made a promise to him.

"Alan, you're a sweetheart. Trust me, I love you. I really do, but not the way you think. You may be just confusing your feelings for me because of what happened with Skylar..." I rambled on, trying to let him down easy.

"You're right, but how could I be so stupid!" He yelled as he paced my room.

"Honey, you're not stupid. You're confused, and we all go through this sometimes when it comes to relationships." I cooed, trying to calm him down.

"No Phoenix, I am stupid. She used me, and you don't love me." He sighed.

"Alan, get a grip. Stop being so depressed. I know it's easier said then done, but you have to pick yourself up and try again. You have to show her that you're strong. She'll hate herself, I knew Skylar for years." I spoke stern.

"You're right I'm sorry." He embraced me.

We finally turned in and I heard soft snores coming from Alan. I knew I wasn't going to sleep tonight.my brains racked so many thoughts that sleep was the last of my worries.

I woke up to see Alan getting dressed. I rolled over and looked at the clock. 7:05, the time I was usually leaving for school.

"why didn't you wake me?" I rushed throwing on a hoodie and leggings, tossing. Y hair on the top of my head. Makeup, I didn't even have time for it.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know." Alan frowned.

"C'mon we gotta go." I shouted rushing down the stairs.

Once in first period I scrambled to do the homework that I didn't do last night due to Alan and I's situation. I put my name at the top and handed it in, not even sure if the answered were correct. I didn't care, I got credit for trying. I laid my head down on the desk, I had such a horrible migraine.

"Phoenix are you okay?" Mrs. Johnson laid her hand on my shoulder.

I shook my head and told me to go down to the nurse. Apparently I looked pale, and dead. I walked down into the nurses office and felt myself getting weak.

"Honey are you okay?" She asked, gripping to my body.

"No I feel really weak, and light headed." I said in a husky tone.

"Honey you have a fever of a 102." She gasped.

"You're going home? Can your parents come get you? Or are you well enough to drive?" She questioned softly, clearly concerned about my state.

"I think I can drive." I nodded.

"Okay but if you start to feel dizzy, pull over and call someone." She said as she wrote me a note.

"Thank you." I said softly.

"Oh honey, you're welcome. Please just get better." She smiled.

I ventured out to my car, I'll have Austin grab my homework from Alan. I got in and felt so sick. I was light headed, and the feeling of passing out was coming on quickly.

I made it home in one piece surprisingly, and walked in the door heading up to my room. When I heard grunts coming from my parents room.

"What the hell?" I whispered, clearly not in the mood for their shit.

I peeked through the door to see my dad walking into the bathroom and some woman lying in his bed.

That wasn't my mom.

Notes
