Laura's pov

One look at me and Ross and it would instantly click that we were a couple. We were picture perfect. Key word were. We were the it couple. We were happy and in love. All of that's changed. I mean we're still in the positions we are in now. Him as the captain of the basketball team and me cheering him on as captain of the cheerleading team but just separated.
We were perfect. Where did it all go wrong? You might ask. Well, here's the story.

(Flashback to six months ago)

I was sitting in class with Ross by my side. I was listening to the teacher as always and Ross was staring at me as always. I was having cheer practice that evening and was trying to figure out what cheers we were gonna use for the up-and-coming game. All of a sudden, Ross's eyes weren't on me anymore nor were they on the teacher. They were on my best friend of four years, Courtney Eaton. I continued to look and notice the way they were smiling at each other, smirking together, and most importantly passing notes to each other. I stayed silent and continued to watch them while trying to get a peek of the note.
Unsuccessful, I turned my attention back to the teacher thinking it was just  them talking about some project they had in another class. Boy could I ever be more wrong. All of a sudden, Courtney asks the teacher to use the restroom and as she walks out, I just barely catch the wink she sends Ross.
My suspicions only grow as five minutes later Ross asks to go. At this time, Courtney still isn't back from the bathroom. Just to prove to myself that my opinion on the situation was wrong, I ask to use the bathroom as well. At that time, Ross nor Courtney was back.

I walked down the corridor and into the girls bathroom spotting no sign of my Australian best friend. I walk out thinking she needed some fresh air and went outside so I walk back to class thinking Ross is ACTUALLY in the bathroom. Getting ready to head back, I turn the corner and see a sight that will forever be etched into my brain.

I found them but not in the position I thought I'd see them in. I expected to see them studying for a test in the next subject that I know they didn't study for. Then again, Ross was never known for studying and Courtney could get away with anything.

I stood there like the statue of fucking liberty for like the longest. I finally decided to say something when things started to get a little heated.

"Wow" I say loud enough for both of them to hear me.

They break apart immediately.

"H-hey laur. " Ross tried to act like nothing happened.

"Cut the crap Ross. "

"Laura, I swear I can explain. "

I nod my head as a signal of continuation, fold my arms, and impatiently tap my foot on the floor.
All the while Courtney stays silent with smudged lipstick on her face.

"Shit, I did not think this through. " Ross finally says as he tries to think of an explanation.

"How long has this been going on?" I say.

"Laura, I-" Courtney finally speaks up  but I interrupt her not wanting to hear her lame excuse.

"Answer the question. " My thing NE of voice is firm and I'm surprised I haven't broken down yet.

"Four months. "Ross says ashamed of himself.

"You've been having an affair for four months and we've been together for a year. Come to think of it, our anniversary is tomorrow. You didn't even have the balls to tell me. Wow, you are a dick." I say.

"Laura, I'm really, really sorry. " Courtney erupts.

"Courtney, If you were sorry, you should have stopped, but you didn't. Have a nice life together." I say trying to walk away, but Ross trust to pull me back.

"Laur-"

I flip them off then say,

"Go fuck yourselves. "

I drive home not caring if I still had five more classes left.

(End of flashback)

I haven't cried once since that day. Ross, Courtney and I stopped talking obviously.

They ended up dating publicly a week after, but from what I've heard, Courtney cheated on him with Matt Davies a couple weeks back. I'm not even sorry for him. I mean ,why should I be? He finally knows what it feels like to be heartbroken. I'm glad for him. Anyway, that's my story.

Maybe not a raura one shot, but a ladies anthem. Stay strong. Never show weakness. It makes the enemy think your weak, which u are not.
