All Chapters of Broken Promises: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Things slowly began getting easier, the days turned into weeks, and the weeks were making way to a month. In a couple of days I would be flying home for graduation and bringing Brooke back with me for good. I was so ready to not be alone anymore. I barely slept anymore, instead I spent most nights at the gym or reading, anything to keep my mind off of Seth.The more I tried to avoid all things Seth the more they seemed to pop up in my life. He was in my iTunes and I couldn't force myself to delete him, and now he was on some stupid tv commercial where the idiot was grinning like a God Damned fool and every time I saw it I would go weak in the knees.I couldn't believe that it had been an entire month since I had talked to Seth. He hadn't bothered to text or call and neither had I. I felt like it should be him to reach back out and I honestly didn't know how I would react if he did. I guess I still just wanted to know that he cared somewhat about me, that I wasn't somethi

My stomach was in knots as we waited for our table. Erin's nonstop chatter was giving me a headache. I had no clue what she was even talking about, I would just nod at her every few minutes. Brooke was unusually quiet and I knew she wanted to talk but there were just way too many people around.When our buzzer started going crazy I stood up, "thank God." Erin glanced over at me, "it's only been 30 minutes." I looked over at Brooke and she shook her head at me as we were led to a huge table in the back. Our waitress went ahead and took our drink and salad order leaving us with menus. Even though I already knew what I wanted I had to study the menu just in case there was something better.Soon I had my sweet tea and salad in front of me, our food had been ordered, and our parents were talking to us about being careful in New York. I shook my head, my mother was still being totally negative while Brooke's parents were very supportive

I awoke to Seth moving in his sleep, looking around I saw that it was still dark outside. As I went to sit up Seth's arm held me tighter and he mumbled something under his breath. I had no idea what he said besides my name. Hell, I can't even lie. I was glad it was my name he mumbled instead of someone else's.Finally managing to wiggle out of his grasp I stood up seeing Brooke's wallet was on the counter, walking over to it I opened it up and dug our room key out. Walking out the door I made my way to our room feeling almost as if I was sneaking away. The truth was I just needed away from Seth, I needed space, I needed air.Throwing the room key down on the coffee table as I walked in I went to my room and collapsed down on the bed. My body was sore from sleeping the way I had and the bed felt like a cloud. Closing my eyes I felt my body drifting back to sleep but before I was fully asleep I heard a click of the door but didn't think anything about it until I felt my be

Standing in front of the bathroom mirror I ran my straightener through my hair one more time. I had yet to decide what to wear to the game and Brooke had yet to appear back at the house. Glancing up at my reflection I double-checked my makeup. I didn't want to appear to be too made up but at the same time, I didn't want to appear plain. Walking back into the bedroom I rolled my eyes at Seth laying on the bed watching tv. He wasn't worried about anything. He true to his nature was wearing a pair of red long shorts with a black shirt. I never knew that Seth wore glasses so when he put them on today I had tot

It didn't take long for me to pack my bags. I had no clue what to bring so I just threw stuff in hoping that it would do. Seth helped me pack so my bag looked better than it would have if I had done it alone. He actually believed in folding things while I would have just shoved it all in and worried about the wrinkles it would make later. When Seth got the call that his ride was outside I hugged Brooke bye one last time. I hated leaving her in a funky mood but she had promised that she would be o
