❤ Kat's POV ❤ I have been crying for hours, and I am starting to worry that I might get dehydrated soon. I was crying because about two hours ago, I caught my boyfriend in bed with my best friend. I actually caught them in the act while fornicating. My boyfriend and I have been together for five years now, but we have known each other since we were little kids. Our parents are actually friends and even business partners at some point. Jason was my first love, my first kiss, and my first everything. I haven't slept with him yet, which is probably why he slept with my former best friend Julianne. I have actually been thinking about finally sleeping with him, and I came over to his condo unit to surprise him. I was the one who turned out to be surprised. I had a key to Jason's apartment, so when I arrived, I let myself in. I even brought over some of his favorite food. When I got inside his condo, I heard some strange noises in the bedroom. I walked over and saw that the door was open. I was initially worried until I recognized the noises being made. It also appears that the noises were being made by two people, and one of them was my boyfriend. The other voice is that of a woman, and it sounds familiar. I decided to go inside the room and see what was going on. What I saw made me want to kill someone. It's Julianne, gyrating on top of Jason. They both had their eyes closed as they moaned in pleasure. I took out my phone and took and started recording a video. I don't know why I did that, but I was thankful that I did. At least I had evidence of their illicit affair. It was Jason who saw me first, and when he did, he looked horrified and pushed Julianne off him. I saw him in all his naked glory, and I gasped and turned around, before running out of his condo. I don’t even remember closing the door, as I headed to the elevators. Jason came running after me, and he caught up with me as I was waiting for the elevator. He had a blanket covering him, and was saying "Kat, I'm sorry, Please let me explain." I was seething with anger as I looked at him and said "What's there to explain? It's pretty clear what you were doing. I may not have had s*x before, but I know what it looks like. And with my best friend, of all people!" Jason: "She seduced me. I couldn't help it. It's just a one-time thing, I promise." Before I got to respond to Jason, Julianne came up behind Jason. She was wearing Jason’s shirt and nothing else. She looked smug as she said "Actually, we've been sleeping together for almost two years now. Why don't you tell him the truth, babe? You're tired of her and that you're only with her because your parents forced you to be together." I looked at Jason in shock, and when he didn't answer immediately, I could feel tears swelling from my eyes. I was thankful that the elevator arrived at the moment, and I got in immediately. I bit my lip and suppressed the desire to cry. will not give the cheaters the satisfaction of seeing me get hurt. As soon as the elevator doors closed, I started sobbing uncontrollably. Jason’s apartment being on the top floor did favors for me. By the time I made it to the ground floor, I stopped crying and wiped the tears off my face. I didn't go back to my condo unit, as I am sure Jason would look for me there. I decided to check into a hotel, and that's where I have been for hours, crying my eyes out. I eventually fell asleep and when I woke up a few hours later, there were tons of missed calls and messages on my phone. I decided to just turn off my phone and not even bother reading the messages, responding to them, or returning any of the calls. I already know who it's from, or what the messages would say. I had no plans of talking to Jason or to my traitorous former best friend, ever again. I was so hungry and thirsty whenI woke up so I decided to order some room service. When the food arrived, I only took a few bites and stopped eating. Despite the hunger, I didn’t have any appetite. I drank plenty of water and juice instead. I started crying again as I remembered how I caught two of the people I trusted most cheating on me. Hearing Julianne say that they have been doing it for years hurt more. I felt so stupid for not noticing anything going on between them. Now that I think about it, Jason and Julianne did seem too close for comfort. We were all close friends before Jason and I got together, so I assumed they were hanging out often before that. I didn't think that they were actually friends with benefits. I wonder if any of our mutual friends knew about Jason and Julianne being carnal with each other. The thought is making me feel more furious. How could they all betray me like that? I am starting to feel more and more stupid as I start to realize the signs of their cheating that I have been ignoring, or not noticing because I thought I was so in love with Jason. After what I saw them doing, and after thinking about how they have been hiding the affair from me, I have no plans of getting back together with Jason. I thought I loved him, but the more I thought about it, maybe I was just infatuated by him. He's the most attractive man I've met, and I remember having a crush on him since I became a teenager. In fact, both Julianne and I had crushes on him. Jason just ended up courting me, instead of Julianne. I thought she was okay with me getting together with Jason, but I was mistaken. When Jason asked me out, I didn't hesitate to say yes. He’s always been nice and sweet towards me and claimed that he didn’t mind waiting until I was ready to be intimate with him. He makes it a point to take me out on a date, and give me flowers every week. Come to think of it, Julianne always acted jealous whenever I received gifts from Jason. I really thought Jason was going to be my husband, but I guess not. As for Julianne, We have been friends since freshman year of high school, and she's always followed me around. She even enrolled in the same college and took the same course that I did. I thought she was my best friend, but maybe she was just using me to get close to Jason. I guess she succeeded. I decided to just go to sleep and think about what to do tomorrow. I have classes but I don't really feel like going to school since I would for sure see Julianne. Jason might also be there and might want to talk to me. Although none of this is my fault, I don't know how I would react if I saw any of them, so I decided to just avoid any situation when I would see them. Before I fell asleep, I decided to stay in the hotel in the meantime. After 48 hours, I was so bored and was going out of my mind. I decided to turn on my phone and get on social media. I started crying once again, as I saw that Julianne had changed her status to 'In a Relationship' with Jason. She also posted a few pictures of them together. I stopped crying and started feeling furious as I saw comments from our common friends, seemingly supporting their relationship. One of them even said 'Finally!' and 'I'm so happy for you guys!' None of the comments even mentioned how Jason was in a relationship with me just a few days ago, and now he's my best friend. This just strengthened my belief that our common friends knew about what was going on with them. I turned off my phone once more and started crying again. It turns out that the people whom I thought were my friends, were not my real friends. I feel asleep while crying. I feel so alone right now.
