Did You Hear?

Petra blinked out of her daze as fingers snapped in front of her eyes.

“Are you even listening?” Her friend asked, pulling her hand back and frowning.

“Yeah, yeah I’m sorry. My bad Lilly.” She said, shifting in her seat and looking at her friend.

Lilly rolled her eyes good naturedly with a small smile on her lips.

“As I was saying, I heard Max telling his soccer buddies that he saw Bella at the movies with Jasper.” She said lowering her voice slightly.

Petra’s eyes widened, and her heart dropped to her stomach.

“Really? Isn’t he going out with someone else though?” She asked, hoping to keep it subtle.

Lilly shrugged.

“Not sure. You know that Jasper doesn’t ever really have a public relationship. But it’s looking likely that he’s talking to Bella and like two other girls.” She said.

“Oh. Wow.” Petra said numbly. Her hand drifted to her wrist, tugging at the bracelet there.

Lilly looked at her and her brows furrowed slightly in concern.

“You okay?” She said, her head tilting slightly. Petra nodded.

“Yep, all good. Just think I had a little too much to eat.” She said, letting out a slightly choked laugh. Lilly’s eyes narrowed slightly. She opened her mouth to speak but Petra stood up, saying a small be right back as she left the table.

She gripped the bracelet, pulling at it until it broke off from around her wrist. She walked over to the trash can, her hand gripping the bracelet hard before she dropped it in.

She stood there for a moment, having to wipe at her eyes to stop the tears as she saw Jaspers name carved onto the underneath of the silver metal.
