~*~Chapter 7~*~
Ali pulled B-Rok over to a tree and hid behind it. They both peeked behind the tree.
They saw Nick sitting by the fountain with a girl with long blond hair, who looked like she was about seventeen. They were holding hands and the blond girl's head was leaning against Nick's shoulder. Ali gasped loudly when she saw Nick's hand on the girl's leg.
"Oh my goodness. I thought everything was over between those two." Brian said quietly.
"You recognize this slut?" Ali asked.
"Yes, unfortunately. That's Mandy, Nick's ex-girlfriend.
Ali glanced over at Nick. Her heart broke into a million pieces as she saw Nick and Mandy wrapped in each other's arms, giggling with delight. Ali clasped her hands over her mouth and fell against the tree.
She sat there for a few moments, staring into space. Then she grabbed Brian's hand and walked briskly with him across the park, not caring where she was going.
Ali walked with Brian to a shady spot under a tree and sat down. She held her knees near her shoulders, buried her head in her knees and cried hysterically.
Brian put his arms around Ali and tried to comfort her.
"Awww Ali. I'm so sorry. I never thought Nick would ever do such a thing," Brian whispered. "Things will get better soon though, I promise."
Ali looked up at him and attempted to smile, but she just ended up sighing. Brian raised Ali's chin, moved in, and gave her a long kiss.
"Brian!!!! How could you take advantage of me like that when I'm so vulnerable right now?!" Ali yelled.
Ali ran off to the direction of her apartment.
"Ali, wait!"
She ran up to her apartment, layed on her bed, buried her head in her pillow and cried.
