My Sister's Ex-boyfriend のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

"Since when do we need a break?""Since now. Today." Dean grabs his things and heads for the door. My heart sinks to my stomach at the sound of the door slamming. Tears form on the brim of my eyes. "Don't cry. Don't cry." I say to myself as my face falls. I pick up my phone and call Gale. It's the last thing I should be doing, but I really need a friend right now.Dean's P.O.V.I walk far out on campus. Anywhere I know I won't bump into Hailee anytime soon. A car hoots at me from behind and halts next to me. Madison's head pokes out of the back window of the car. "Where are you going all by your lonesome self?" "Anywhere I can clear my head.""Well, we're off to a bonfire party. You can tag along. It'll probably help." She offers.As much as this may be a bad idea, it will relieve me. I'll deal with any consequences later. If Hailee can have ice cream, I can go to a party."Okay."Madison scoots over after opening the door for me. She smiles at me. "Relax. We'll have loads of fun."

Hours later, I wake up to a different wallpaper and bed sheets. I turn my head besides me and...Madison? I close my eyes and sigh, nausea swimming in my stomach. I sit up and look at our clothes scattered on the floor. If Hailee find out about this- A hand touches my back. "Hey." Madison smiles. I smile back at her. She moves closer towards me, sitting herself behind me, placing kisses on my back. "I had fun last night." She whispers."Me too." I say."Come back to bed. It's still quite early. Plus, it's Sunday." She slips back into the duvets, pulling me in. I move back in and close my eyes. Hailee's P.O.V. I wake up feeling much better than yesterday. I check my phone and Halsey has sent me photos of herself. Plenty photos. I groan and think about my space. I turtle out of my bed and walk to the bathroom. I call Gale as I brush my teeth, curious about what he has planned for the day. "See you soon." I say to him over the phone. I put on a tank top and a high-waist

I'm woken up by the ringtone of my phone. I groan as I stare at the screen with Gale's name displayed on it. I place it upside down on my bedside table. I flip onto my back, noticing that my shoes are still on. I sigh, my eyes feeling heavy and swollen. Dean definitely kicked the bucket this time. How could he do such a thing? All that trust thrown out just like that. I place my hands on my face as my chest pains and tears start to roll down my cheeks. My phone rings again. I ignore it and lightly start sobbing. I can't find any solid reason for why he would run to Madison. Yes, I have problems with Madison, but it wouldn't feel any better even if it was anyone else-he could've picked anyone else though. I'm making my own assumptions constantly about why he really asked for a break. Everything is just so frustrating and confusing.A knock sounds at my door. I suck in my breath so my cries aren't heard on the other side of the door. It sounds again and again. "Go away!" I shout."Hai

The next morning, I find Dean on the hockey field practicing his shots. I take a seat on a bench and wait for him. He seems to be deep in thought about something. It's not like him to miss five times in a row, at such close range too.He crouches, his hockey stick in his hands. I stand up, ready to approach him. As I'm about to take one step, Madison comes running in his direction. I stop in my tracks, my chest grows heavy and tight. Dean gets up to hug her. I shake my head and walk back to my room.Dean's P.O.V.I sigh as I get up to give Madison a hug. I look to my side and spot Hailee walking away from the field. I'm sure it's her. How long was she here? I fight running after her, I'm still sceptical about a conversation. I don't know what to say, especially now that Madison's in my arms. Madison squeals as she hugs me. "I've kind of missed you, you know?" She breaks the hug. I give her a brief smile. She frowns. "Ar

Hailee's P.O.V.I walk back into the room and smile at Gale. He's sitting on the edge of the bed, his hands intertwined. He sighs. "So, are you back together?"I shake my head. "No, we're not." Gale presses his lips together before parting them, not saying anything. I look at him as his gaze falls to the floor. "But, do you think you'll get back together?" He asks.I shrug. "I mean, maybe, maybe not. I still love him. It makes things a little harder when it comes to letting him go." Gale keeps his eyes on the ground. "Why are you asking me this?" I get closer to him. His eyes follow my feet as I close in on him. I pause. "It doesn't really matter." He says in a whisper. "Gale, no. Talk to me, what's wrong? Is it because I tied my hair?" I try to joke. He doesn't smile nor laugh. I've never seen him like this. It's kind of saddening to see him like this. "Does it have to do with Dean?" I softly ask even though I know it is.He shuts his eyes and clenches his jaw. His adam's apple be
