Broken Doesn't Mean Fixed

Guilt

Skylar's POV
- - -
When Harley came home early I was so happy, I immediately kissed him and we cuddled.

But now that it's been about a week, I can't help but feel guilty about what happened with Jack.
Harley walks into the kitchen, where I am sitting on the counter, thinking.

"Whatcha thinking bout?" he asks, coming over to me and kissing my forehead.

"Nothing" I jump down from the counter and try to go upstairs.
Harley grabs my skinny arm and keeps me from moving.

"Sky, I can tell when you're lying"
He looks at me in the eyes

"I don't want to talk about it" I mumble

"Sky, common, whatever it is, I promise I won't laugh or get mad or anything" His grip loosens on my arm

"Promise?" I assure

"Promise"

I take a deep breath
"The day before you where released I picked up Jack, from the hospital so he could have descent sleep. I guess when he got here we both missed our loved ones because in the moment it felt right and we"

"I don't want to hear it Skylar" he runs his fingers through his hair

"Harley, please don't be mad, I was stupid and I feel like shit about it"
I feel tears stinging my eyes

"DONT BE MAD?!?" He yells
"You cheated on me while I was in the hospital, with someone who was in a relationship"

"Don't yell at me" I whisper

"Skylar, I need to be alone and think about this"

I nod my head, tears pouring out of my eyes.
I put on my shoes and walk outside.
I was going to call Rein, but she doesn't need more shit right now,
So I'm stuck going to Cassidi's house.
Even though I'm 1000% sure she hates me as much as Harley.

I start walking over to Cass' house, slowly, letting the tears fall from my eyes. I try to control my breathing but I'm unable to.

The walk took about an hour. When I reach the house I look at my reflection in the door.
I take a few deep breaths and try to run the red away from my eyes.

I ring the door bell.
Soon Jack opens the door. He's only wearing basket ball shorts and his hair is a huge mess.

"Skylar! Are you okay?" His eyes go wide

"Can I come in" I say avoiding the question
He moves out of the way and I enter the house.

"I'm just making some dinner for me and Cassidi, do you want to join?" He calls from the kitchen

"Sure"
I walk into the kitchen and see Cassidi.
She's sitting in the counter, wearing on of Jacks shirts and underwear, no pants.

"Skylar are you okay?" She looks so worried

"Not really" I say looking at the ground

She hops off the counter, as soon as her feet hit the ground she winces in pain and falls to the ground, and laughs.

She gets up, still laughing and limps over to me.

"Are YOU okay" I say once she gets over to me

She glances back and Jack, who is smirking

"Ya..." She giggles

It took me a minute but as soon as I realized what happened I feel a little ping in my chest.
Seeing Jack so happy with Cassidi, makes me feel weird inside.
I'm not mad, or sad.
I guess I'm jealous, I wish that was me and Harley.

"Sky" Cassidi says snapping me out of my thoughts

"Ya" I say

"I asked what happened, and if we could go sit down, my LEGS ARE KILLING ME" she says yelling that last part so Jack would hear

We go to the living room and I sit down next to Cass.

She looks at me.

"I told Harley about what happened between me and Jack and he got mad." I try to keep my tears inside

"Skylar, Harley is a great guy, I understand why he would be mad. But what happened was simply because you missed kissing him and when Jack was the only one there you acted on impulse"

"You're right" I say, relaxing a bit

"Anyways Jack said the kiss didn't mean anything, so if you say that to Harley maybe he would understand better."

I don't say anything.

"Skylar, the kiss didn't mean anything RIGHT?" She repeats herself

"Right..." I lie

Oh shit....am I falling for Jack
