-I hate to announce this but this book will come to an end soon. I'll be in the corner cutting up some onions. But for now, please sit comfortably and so your tea

"What the flip is a freakin debutante?!" Joey spat, looking in between alex and I. "And what do you mean about Alex being had rose's date" crud buckets he called me by my birth name. This means I'm in deep bull crap right now. I should have told him sooner about the debutante. If I did, we would have worked things out instead of me being too chicken to tell him. The worst part is that he was so happy about today that i was finally going to meet his family. Now all because of me, that smile is gone.

"Joey, a debutante is a big formal celebration. Celebrating girls turning into women.." Ms Birlem explained. "And rosie is apparently going with your new cousin"

"Step cousin" alex corrected. My mind is still trying to process things. In a few days, joey and alex are going to be related.....fudge nuggets this is too much

"There's no way I'm going to be related to this douche" joey said, throwing his hands up in the air, signaling that he is annoyed.

"Joey!" His mum gasped. "Go to your room right now!" She demanded

"Its not my room anymore, mum! I moved out remember!" Joey rolled his eyes

"You're acting childish. " She seethed. "Go. Now" she demanded once again but this time more clear

"How do you know joey?" Miss bets asked Alex which made me swallow

It took him less then a second to reply. "He's the one who broke my nose" alex scoffed, crossing his arms, squinting his eyes at joey in a glare

"That was you?" Sophia asked. She looks like she had seen a ghost. Of course bella and sophia know about joey going to jail but I'm surprised they didn't know who he destroyed for it.

Alex nodded.

"You're a snitch!" Joey growled and pushed him

"Joey, stop!" I yelped and held his arms back.

"This is what he deserves!" Joey yelled and pushed me off until I found myself on the ground. "Going out with your stupid friend, stealing your first kiss for a stupid dare." Joey continued on to push him. This is not the joey I know, but it seems like to me that this is the real joey. The one who would get drunk every night, bipolar over little things. The one of which I had met but changed some how. I guess some people would never change.

I sat down on the cold ground with my bottom lip shivering as I whimpered. "Stop!" I pleaded

But joey went on,  "Causing every single fight we've had" he growled as strong as a bear. "He freaking deserves to get hurt!" He yelled out , Alex trying to fight back but he's too weak for joey's strength

"That's enough joey!" His mum demanded, stomping her foot against the ground. "Now look what you've done! Physically hurting people is never an option. Especially to rose. Honestly, What is your problem". She helped me up from the ground

I saw joey's back muscles relax down as he froze his actions. Stumbling back, he glanced back at me with eyes that stung with hurt. Is mouth hung open a little while miss bets pulled alex to her like if she was scared f joey killing him. But joey would never kill anybody. But however he does hurt.

Physically and mentally

Blinking with my glossy eyes, I looked away. Wanting all this to end. I ruin everything

"Rosie...i-im sorry" he croaked out, walking towards me but I walked backwards

"I told you" I sniffled, hiding behind his mum as he looked at me in complete confusion

"Told me what?" He asked. His voice seemed soft. Soft like he was scared of breaking me if he had changed his tone in his voice

"Not to fall for me" everything is my fault. All this would never of happened if it wasn't for me. Past relationships went down really bad because of me. Every damn time I screw up every little thing. Fights and arguments are caused by me.

I'm a hand full. I don't deserve being in love.

But joey doesn't see that

I warned him. I didn't want a heart like his to get involved with me. Clumsily, I held his fragile heart. I don't deserve him at all but he didn't listen.

Why didn't he listen? Why couldn't he just stay away from me? I don't want to get hut again, nor see him break down into shattered pieces. Why should I even know about love when I'm terrible at it. I'm still learning what love is. Nothing seems right to me

Except when I met joey..

Snap out of it , rose . You've already mess things up big time. He doesn't deserve a crap girl like you. Just stay away from him. Everything would be better that way..

"I'm sorry" I sighed then made my way out the door. With the cold breeze hitting me, I brung my arms tighter around myself.

Its not that i want to break up with him

but i need to break up with him

this is going to be hard
