(Song: Jar Of Hearts by Christina Perri)
Finally, the end of the day rolls around, but Kyle hasn't shown up yet. I tried texting him a few times throughout the day but still got no reply. Hopefully he'll make it to the meeting, they're probably going to be doing a lot of work with him since he's the male lead.

I go to my locker when the last bell rings and pack up my backpack before heading to the auditorium where the first rehearsal is. When I walk in, I see a many people all in different groups just chatting with each other. I spot Kyle in the corner along with Maya and a couple others, so I decide to walk over there.

"Hey, Kyle," I say with a smile as I walk up to him and grab his hand.

He lets go and pushes my hand to the side. That's weird, he has never done that before. "Hi, Ellie," he says in a cold tone. "I better get rehearsal started. See you guys," he says before walking away and onto the stage. What is going on with him?

"Hey, guys! So we're going to get rehearsal started," Kyle starts into the microphone. "All backup dancers need to go to the dance room and backup singers go to the chorus room. The rest of you guys, stay here. We're going to be working on one of the last scenes." Kyle uses his fingers to point the different groups in the correct direction as he speaks.

I begin following Maya up to the stage, as she was right in front of me. "Hey, Maya," I say, trying to make conversation.

She laughs a little before replying with "hey," and walking off to catch up with some other people. Really? Did Kyle tell her about me not having sex with him? It's not that big of a deal. I roll my eyes and sit down with the other theater kids.

"Alright, personally, I would like to start with the kissing scene, if you guys are okay with that," Kyle says with a chuckle at the end. The other kids laugh along and I hear a few cat calls.

Kissing scene?

Kyle never told me about that. "I'll take that as a yes," he says and looks over at Maya. "Miss Maya, here's your script, Jonathan, here's yours, Sarah, here's yours," Kyle says, handing everyone their script. He even gave Maya a wink when giving her a script.

Finally, he gets to me and he hands me the script. "And Ellie," he says, clearly with less enthusiasm than everyone else. I look at him and furrow my eyebrows, but he looks away right when he notices my displeased look.

"Okay, if you aren't in this scene, you can go sit in the chairs. Make sure you're watching though. It's important to always know what's going on, even if you're not in the scene," Kyle says, his voice returning to his happy-go-lucky voice.

I look through the scene and find that I have no parts in this scene, so I join some other kids in the chairs. One of the theater teachers queues the actors to start, and they do.

The scene is almost over, and only Maya and Kyle are on the stage. I'm not really paying attention, just looking at the floor. It's isn't until I hear cheering that I look up to see the worst sight I could ever see.

A kiss.

Not just any kiss, they were full on making out. Kyle has his hands wrapped tightly around Maya's waist and they were extremely close. Closer than we've ever been...

The scene is obviously over. It was over after the first five seconds of the kiss, but they don't seem to care. It doesn't look like Kyle of Maya is plainsong in getting their tongues out of each other's throat any time soon. In fact, Maya even jumps up a wraps her legs around Kyle's waist, which causes him to move his hands to her butt.

I decide that I've had enough. Rehearsal is only going on for another five minutes, so I walk over to the teacher and tell her I have to leave for a doctors appointment. She nods her head and give me a smile, trying not to disrupt the scene, which should have ended a while ago.

I give one more look back on stage and see them still kissing. Quickly, I turn on my heels and walk out of the building, not bothering to close the door quietly.

I walk outside and sit on a bench before I take my phone out to text Harry and tell him to pick me up. Kyle made it pretty clear up there that he wouldn't be driving me home.

'Hey, turns out Kyle can't drive me home today. Can you pick me up?' I text.

He replies a few minutes later. 'Of course. Be there in 15.'

I shut my phone off and bury my head in my hands, letting a few tears fall down my cheeks.

A few minutes later I hear the door open and see a ton of the theater kids walking out. Kyle and Maya come out a minute after the rest. I should probably talk to Kyle, we're going to have to eventually. He is walking toward his car with Maya, so I have to run to catch up with him. I grab his arm and say, "Kyle."

He turns around, his smile fading when he sees me. "Oh, what is it, Ellie?" He says, uncomfortably. Good, he should feel uncomfortable.

"We need to talk," I say seriously.

He rubs his neck with his hands, "um, okay. I guess. Maya, here's my keys, I'll meet you in the car in a second." Maya grabs the keys and wanders off.

"What, Ellie? Please make this quick, I have plans," he says impatiently.

"What happened in there?" I ask, clearly upset. Tears begin to form in my eyes again.

"Nothing happened. I know how you feel now, so that's it. Let's just forget we were ever a thing," he says, defending his actions.

"So that's it?" I ask with a scoff. "You thought I hated you because I didn't want to have sex with you? You're sick, Kyle. You didn't even let me explain."

"Well, do you want to explain? I don't know how it worked back at the orphanage, but sex is an important part to my relationships. If you're not willing to give that to me, then we can't be a thing," Kyle hisses.

"You're so ignorant. I'm glad I didn't have sex with you. You're the last person on earth I'd have sex with," I say, stumbling over my own words.

"Okay, virgin. Whatever you say. I'm glad we're on the same page," he says, giving me a small smile before walking off to his car.

I cannot believe that just happened. I walk back to the bench I was sitting on and wait for Harry to come pick me up. This day has sucked.
