I didn't mean to cheat on you

Prologue

I swear I hated Valentine's day. Even though I had a boyfriend and we've been together four years now something always seems to go wrong on that day. This year was no different. We were already fighting, and I was just so sick of it.

We decided to go to a party with all our friends to celebrate the winning game. My boyfriend was the quarterback and was the best in town I might add. He never let's anyone forget it. He is the most popular and sexiest guy in the school and I am with him.

I love him a lot but lately he has changed and become such a jerk anymore. He acts like I should bow down to him and I will never do that. He thought he could act like God's gift to women and it wouldn't upset me so when I went to the bathroom he felt it was ok to flirt. I came out of the bathroom and saw him grinding and kissing some random girl. So here I am walking home in the rain crying my eyes out.

When I confronted him about it he told me it was no big deal and to quit being a drama queen. I'm the drama queen when he's the one that threw a fit and said I was embarrassing him in front of his adoring fans yea ok. Are you kidding me? I am so done with him. Let his adoring fans take care of him then.

It just seems like he no longer cares about me. Did I just waste the last four years of my life? Just as I started to break down even more a car pulls up and asked if I needed a ride. I looked to see who it was and saw it was Dakota the new football assistant coach at our school. Unlike everyone else he doesn't bow down to Adam which of course makes Adam hate him. I was freezing so I agreed to the ride since I did know him.

"So why are you walking alone in the rain? Where is that bf of yours?"

"Probably messing around with the girl he was kissing on when I left."

He gave me a worried look then just kept driving. I felt foolish for telling him all of that. I just wanted to get home change into some pajama's get warm then hide under my covers. I didn't want to see or talk to anyone.

"Um where are we going my turn was back there?" I said.

"I am taking you to my house and cooking you some dinner."

"What? Why?"

"It's valentine's day you've had a bad day and no girl should ever be alone and crying on this day especially not someone as beautiful and sweet as you."

I didn't know what to say so I said ok and blushed like crazy. Did he really think I was beautiful? I was going to be alone with my crush. Most of the girls at school secretly harbored a crush on Dakota. He wasn't just super sexy he was really sweet as well. Maybe this would turn out to be a good night after all.

Chapter 1

Joy's pov

I can't believe how much I drank last night. The last thing I remember is getting in the car with Dakota after having a huge fight with Adam. He took me to his place to cook me dinner and cheer me up. We watched a movie and had a few drinks. After that I don't remember a thing.

I looked around to see where I was at, and nothing looked familiar. This was not my bedroom. Oh, no please tell me I didn't spend the night with Dakota. I heard a moan and looked over to see sure enough Dakota was lying in bed next to me. Maybe we didn't have sex. Maybe we just fell asleep together after drinking a little too much.

I looked down to see I still had all my clothes on which means no sex. The last thing I wanted to do was have sex with my boyfriends' coach. He would never forgive me for that. Yea I know we're fighting but we always end up making up. Being together for four years is just not worth throwing away over stupidity.

I hurried and got out of bed before Dakota woke up. I grabbed my phone and the rest of my stuff and left. As soon as I was far enough away I called a cab. I just needed to get home. I wondered if Adam has even tried looking for me.

After calling a cab I looked at my notifications. I saw I had twenty missed calls from Aiden and voicemails when I got home. He also sent me like fifty texts, so I slowly started to read them once I got into the cab. It was mostly him saying he was sorry and that he loved me.

I'm not going to call him back for a while I'll make him suffer so he knows just how much he hurt me. My phone went off and I looked at it thinking it would just be another text from Adam, but it was from Dakota asking why I left. I didn't even realize he had my phone number.

I didn't know what to say so I told him that I needed to get home, so my family wouldn't worry. He told me I should have woke him up, and he would have made sure I got home. I told him I was sorry, but that I couldn't let Adam see me with him since we were going to work things out.

I didn't hear back from him right away, so I figure wasn't very happy with me. Then I got a text from him saying (Ok after last night I thought you were with me.) I don't even know what he meant by that and I was to scared to ask him, so I told him I loved Adam and he's the only man I ever want to be with.

Adam will be the man I marry one day in the near future, I hope. I guess Dakota got the hint because he didn't text me back. I hurried and paid the cab driver then went into my house. No one seemed to be there, so I hurried into my room and took a shower. I was getting dressed when I heard a knock on my bedroom door.

"Joy where the hell have you been? I have been calling you and texting you ever since you took off from the party." Adam said.

Great just who I wanted to see. So much for making him suffer. Damn men any way. Seeing him brought back all that pain and anger from last night. He acted mad that I didn't answer his calls or texts. He had no right to be angry. This was all his fault.

"Well I left because my boyfriend of four years decided to make out with some random chick on Valentine's day and act like I didn't even matter."

"Baby I'm sorry I know what I did was wrong, but she threw herself at me."

"Oh, and you just couldn't say no? What are you doing here Adam I don't want to talk to you right now. I think we need some space to figure things out."

"Wait are you dumping me because I kissed some random girl that didn't even mean anything?"

"It meant a lot to me. It broke my heart. You just don't seem to care at all do you? Did you sleep with her last night?"

"I do care you're the one that I love. That kiss meant nothing to me, and no I didn't do anything with her I came looking for you. Someone said the could have sworn they saw you get in a car with some guy. Do you care to explain that?"

"I don't have to explain anything to you. I'm not the one that cheated, but I know you did. Stop making stuff up to cover up for what you've done wrong."

"Look ok I'll admit I was attracted to that girl. I'm just a guy with urges that my longtime girlfriend refuses to fill. I mean four years and you still won't have sex with me."

"Are you serious right now? I'm sorry I'm not easy like the girls that throw them selves at you. I'm a virgin and I am saving myself for marriage. You knew this from the get go and your just now bringing this up? This doesn't give you the right to cheat on me and treat me like this. Just leave Adam. I was going to forgive you, but I can see now that this isn't going to work. We have both changed too much and want different things."

"Fine by me I outgrew you any way and did have sex with her last night over and over again. I wasted to many years with a prude like you. Don't try talking to me, come near me, or anyone I know."

"So, it's like that? Good bye Adam you will regret this one day."

"I doubt it."

Once I heard the door slam downstairs I threw myself on the bed and let the tears start to fall. How could he do this to me? Didn't I mean anything at all to him? I loved him with everything in me. I thought what we had was real. I thought he was my soulmate. That we would last forever.

I was going to give him my virginity on Valentine's night until I saw him with that other girl. I'm so glad I didn't he doesn't deserve anything from me. He broke my heart and he doesn't even care. Maybe he never truly did. Was the last four years full of nothing but lies?

My phone went off with a text from Dakota saying we needed to talk about last night. What the hell is there to talk about? We fell asleep together after getting drunk no big deal, right? Or was it? Did something more happen? And why was my whole body so sore like I had an extensive workout?"

Chapter 2

Adam's pov

I can't believe she's acting like this. I never did sleep with that girl it was just that one kiss that I deeply regret. I told her I did because after a ton of people say that she cheated on me with some random guy from our rival school. That broke me. Now I just wanted to hurt her like she did me.

After years of being with Joy I knew she was waiting for marriage. It didn't bother me at all because little did everyone know I was a virgin as well. Yea I know everyone thinks I am this stud that sleeps with all these girls, but I haven't.

Joy has been my first and only love now I've lost her because of my stupid mistakes. All I did was kiss another girl, and it sent her running into the arms of another man. Was she really even a virgin still? How many more guys did she cheat on me with?

I plan on making her hurt just as bad as I am. I can't believe this. How am I going to go to school tomorrow and see her being all happy? My heart is broke and she's going to throw it in my face I just know it. I had to get a grip before I totally lost it.

My friends have been calling me all day, but I just don't feel like seeing or talking to anyone right now. I mean they are the ones that saw my girl with some other dude I just needed some time to process everything and figure out what to do next.

Maybe I should just go and sleep with some random girl and get Joy out of my system once and for all. Yea maybe that will do the trick because I can't keep moping around and crying over a chick that doesn't care about me. Or maybe I should call her and try to explain things and see if she would take me back.

I need her in my life that's it I'm going to call her and make things right with the woman I love. I was about to call her when my phone went off. It was a text saying that coach Dakota scheduled an impromptu training for today and I had like twenty minutes. I guess my talk with Joy would just have to wait.

I hurried to grab my gear and headed to the school so, I wouldn't be late. Assistant Coach Dakota was a real hard ass if you were even a few minutes late you had to run fifty laps around the track and I hated running. So, I always made sure to be early because it seemed to impress him somewhat.

I didn't really like him he wasn't much older than us and he was very cocky. Also, he didn't seem to like me for some reason and I don't know why. I never did anything wrong. I was on the honor roll and we won almost every game, so he couldn't complain about anything like that.

Maybe he was just out an out jealous of how successful I will become while he is all washed up forced to be a coach at such a young age. Hell, he isn't even a coach he's just an assistant. I don't know what it is about him, but I just don't like this guy. There was just something off about him.

I showed up at the school to see the cheerleading squad also practicing. Just great now I get to see the girl that broke my heart before I was ready to. I looked for Joy in the sea of cheerleaders but couldn't find her. That was weird considering she was the captain of the cheer team and never missed a practice.

Maybe all the girls were giving her a hard time about how she did me wrong. Or maybe she's to broken hearted to show up. That's it she's probably at home crying into her pillow wishing I would take her back. I like that idea maybe I should wait a few days until she comes crawling back and make her beg me to take her back.

I ran over to the rest of my team that was out on the field. They all looked at me with this strange look on their faces. I don't know what's up with them. Maybe their pissed because I ignored them all day. Or this was because of what went down with Joy.

I looked around to see where Coach was because it's not like him to be late. Then I noticed everyone looking over at the corner of the field, so I looked over there to see Coach and my Joy in what looked like a serious conversation. What the hell was this all about? I didn't even know they knew each other.

Maybe he's just angry because they're here practicing when we are, and he doesn't want them to distract us. They noticed everyone looking at them, so they went their separate ways. Yea maybe she just got int trouble for something. Who knows with her anymore because she's not the same girl I fell in love with anymore.

Good thing I didn't call her I would have only made a fool of myself. Coach must have been in a bad mood because he made us all run twenty laps, but he made me run thirty for some reason. I don't know why he's so hard on me all the time. Did this have something to do with Joy?

I don't get why he was taking his anger out on me. I didn't do anything wrong. I was early for this practice that no one even knew about until almost last minute. He said since I was the Captain he had to make an example out of me. Told us our running game was to slow that we all became lazy.

I would love to show him lazy he just doesn't have a clue. We are the best always have been and always will be. The game this weekend won't change that. We're playing our rival team which we always beat. So, I don't know why he all of a sudden has his panties in a bunch. If he doesn't chill I will go to coach about this.

Man, I need to get away from this school and go have some fun. After practice all the guys were out front by their cars. I guess they were going to go to the local hang out because they were having car night. Yea pretty typical guys we liked fast cars and hot women.

So, I told them I was down for it. I didn't want to go home and cry over what could have been. Hell, I wasn't some chick guys just didn't do that. I'd leave the crying for Joy to do. I just didn't want to wallow in my pain anymore.

I looked over at Joy as she got in her car and left without even looking my way. She is such a cold-hearted bitch. I need to find a new girl because I am done with that cheating liar. The rest of the cheerleaders came over and started talking to us and telling the latest rumors going around school. I just hoped I wasn't a part of these rumors.

Of course, they said they were sorry about cheating on me with our rival team's captain. I just shrugged my shoulders and said no big deal that I was over her any way. I didn't want anyone to see the pain I was still in. I just wanted to forget all of this ever happened.

They also said they heard that Coach Dakota took some home chick home this weekend and finally got laid. I had to laugh at that because if that was true he would have been in a much better mood. The man has no woman wanting him at all. He was such an ass what girl in their right mind would want him?

I kind of figured out why I hated him so much. I don't like the way he was always looking at Joy when we were together like he was jealous. What a loser being jealous of me for being with my High School girlfriend. He is a sick man. I need to watch Joy closely even if we're not together I wanted her to be safe and I just didn't like the way Coach looked at her.
