My Ex’s

To say its better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all is only said by people that have obviously never done it. Call me a sucker, but if I didn’t love you insome way, shape, or form, I wouldn’t have a relationship with you at all. We would passin the street, make eye contact, I would shoot you a smile and that would be that. I would put my life on the line for anyone I’ve known more than 5 minutes. That’s just me. Idon’t expect that in return ever, I just think that most people are worth sticking up for…..most people.

JESSICA

I was in English class one day and we were watching “A Raisin in the Sun”. It’s basedon a book by Walter Lee. I hear a knock on the door to the classroom and the teacher goes and opens it. Everyone looks to see who it is because that’s always what people do.This time was especially interesting because there were two security guards and an armed police sheriff standing at the door. At first I thought they were going to do a random drugsearch but I noticed they had no dogs. They were looking for someone. The teacher madea gesture toward the opposite side of the room. The side of the room where everyone wassitting. The person they wanted was here somewhere. As they cross the room therelooking at everyone’s face. The lights were out because of the movie which was still playing. “You, get up your coming with us.” I get up out of my desk and walk aroundonly to be grabbed and slammed down on my face. I’m going to take this opportunity tomention that I don’t do well when confronted by authority, especially without proper introduction. They cuff my hands behind my back using zip ties. One of the securityguards grabs my backpack and they walk me to the door apologizing for theinconvenience to the teacher. As I’m being escorted across campus I inquire as to thereason of my being snatched up and they say “don’t know, can’t tell you.” “Well which isit?” I asked and they said “Don’t worry about it, you’ll find out soon.” Now I’m justgetting pissed. Not only do they embarrass me, they don’t even have to courtesy to tellme what I’ve done wrong, even though I’ve already been cuffed. We get to the smallsheriffs department on campus which is literally just big enough for a filing cabinet, adesk, four chairs, and a small fake tree in the corner. He opens the door and pushes meinside. My ex girlfriend is sitting in one of the chairs. We had been broken up for amonth. “Now that you see her do you know why you’re here?” “No, why don’t you tellme?” “Watch your mouth, you’re in enough trouble as it is.” “Right.” He asks her to tellhim again what she told him earlier and to pretend like I wasn’t there. To make a longstory short, she began telling him that it was about a month and a half earlier and me andher were messing around and I started to do things and go places and she was telling meno and that I kept going anyway. The whole time she’s crying. I’m sure you get wherethis was going. I of course came back with the response of “what the fuck? That’sfucking bullshit!” and it was, we dated for two weeks, we were never alone. The copasked me to please refrain from any more outbursts

(only he didn’t say it like that)

. Healso told me that I had really fucked up because he had a daughter and if some greasyteenage punk like me had done what my ex was saying I did he would kill them (

oh goody

). It’s not a good feeling to have when you’re in a situation like that and you knowyou’re screwed either way. So she continued and even gave a date and place. He askedme for my side. I was extremely pissed at this point. “I already told you, that’s all bullshit. I know the exact time she’s talking about. She forgot to mention the fact that weweren’t the only ones there. During the whole two weeks we dated we were never alone

because I don’t have a car. I always have my buddy drive me. It would have beenimpossible for me to do the things she’s saying because it would have been done in frontof the other two people who were in the room with us that entire day.” “You realize thatif you’re lying, you will be arrested and charged with sexual battery, and if convicted,you will have to register as a sex offender?” “She’s lying!” “Your going to get out of here, I have to talk with her some more. I’ll come for you when I need you.” “whatever.”I left and went to lunch. When I saw my friends news of my so-called arrest had alreadyreached them. So I straightened out the rumors and they agreed that that was bullshit andthey weren’t going to stand for it. I told them that the cop told me if anyone said anythingto my ex about the situation they could be charged with harassment and it would makethings even worse for me and them. So even though they wanted to stick up for me theycouldn’t. Not even the people who were there that day. I started freaking out and since Iwas able to leave campus for lunch I ditched and went to my friend’s house to get baked.While I was there my mom called my cell phone and asked where I was because sheknew I wasn’t at school. The cop had gone looking for me again and when he couldn’tfind me he started making calls. She told me to go back to school because the cop wantedto talk to me one-on-one. I told her what he said to me and she said that he told her thesame thing and that it was all for show. Just to make it seem to the girl like it was all over for me. So I went back to school and went straight to the sheriff’s office. He was therewaiting for me. He and I talked and I told him how it went down. He told me he’d look into it but I’d have to keep my friends form talking to her because she had alreadycomplained since we had talked last which was about two hours ago. The person thatspoke to her was my current girlfriend at the time who threatened to kick her ass if anything happened to me. He said he believed my side and if I could prove it that hewould just ignore it like it never happened. He said I could press charges for slander but Isaid she’s in for a tough enough ride as it is and walked out. In fact I walked straight tothe school psychiatrist. I’m all about the psychological warfare. Of course they knewwhat was going on and agreed to sit down with me right away. They asked me why Ithought she would accuse me of such things and I told them it was an act of jealousy for dating her friend and to be honest, “she’s crazy.” I told them how right before we splitshe had told me how she was adopted and had all these problems and was real depressedand tried to commit suicide and a lot of other shit. Including the fact that she’s a cutter and if you were to look at her right forearm just above the wrist you would see scars thatwere fairly new. She was the second cutter I had dated. That immediately raised a redflag. That one conversation alone made her have to admit to her parents that she lied,apologize to me publicly, and spend weeks in therapy. Her reputation was ruined and sowas her self esteem. All her friends had turned against her because most of them werefriends we shared. After all was said and done, she was a ghost. No friends, not even her parents could look at her straight because they had no idea about the whole suicide thing.A year later me and a friend saw her. She was working in the drive through of a Carl’sJr.. That was the one time I couldn’t eat there. All though, by the way she acted it seemedlike she had blocked the entire incident out of memory. A year of therapy can do that for you I guess. That or she was just being nice because she had to.
