26.(un)loved

The look ethan has is so damn scary.

But what leaves me confused is the cake he has in his hand and the bags which fell on the floor.

"I am soo sorry! I really forgot about u coming over it jus-"

I start moving towards him to hold his hand.

He jolts away from my touch as if I'm some one really low to him.i feel like ive been punched in my guts.

"Don't even try Adley!! Don't even try!...i-ive been hitting you up on your phone since forever,youve been ignoring it!..and ...I'm here waiting for you since 11.30 hoping you might show up now or then....but you?you Were having fun with t-" he stops himself looking

At samuel giving him a death stare.

I force him to look at me even after he resists,his eyes are blood shot red. Jaw tight

"I wasn't ignoring you! I really didn't remember..i-" I say as tear forms in my eyes.

His features turn soft after seeing my glassy eyes.

"Today was my birthday.....i- I never wanted to celebrate my birthday before.. until Today,but today I wanted to bcoz I thought I had someone spcl in my life,who cared for me.....i- I woke up early in the morning,bugged my aunt for the cake recipe and prepared it so I could celebrate with you...(scoff) but guess what?" He says with teary eyes as lifts the cake he brought in his hand

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!" He rudely says as he slams the cake down

A single tear drops down from my eyes as the cake falls on the ground.

"Ethan...." I leave out softly.

He turns away hideing his tears,.

"I'm sorry!...I never intended to hurt you" I say looking down at my feet.

"Please stop! Adley! You had a choice and you chose him!" He says holding my shoulders so tightly that it began to hurt.

"It was not a choice!" I mumble looking at his eyes full of misery

"You know what! It was my fault I fell In your trap!,my fault that I wanted to be happy again.when I knew I didn't deserve shit,but I thought you won't let me down and waited at ur door like a mad man till hours thinking you might be stuck somewhere,oh Fuck! I was worried sick thinking maybe you were in trouble,.....you were the first person I tried to open up ...but this is what I get! !" He says shaking me violently.

Within a blink ethan is pushed away from me,

"Fucking don't touch her!!you bastard" Samuel barges at him who was listening to everything behind me silently until now.

Ethan gets up from the ground.smiling before he charges at him.

"ETHAN!! NO!!" I shout trying to get in between them.

Shit! This is soo wrong.

I Jump in between them to get them away from each other ,but get thrown away by these angry bulls.

"STOP!!! FIGHTING!"

"You stay away leyy!"

All the people from the apartment start gathering in the seen

Both the boys are fighting like a kindergarten kids.

murmers began to start among the crowd making me wanna throw myself out of he building.

They both are fighting to an extent,where they are so near to tear away their tee shirts .

And I'm fucking trying to get them off eachother with 0 success.

Ethan's pov.

I wanted to celebrate this birthday with her,it was the first wish I had for my birthday but all I got was heart break.

Although I knew it wasn't fully her fault,but my mind went off after seeing her with Samuel laughing in his arms,it made me think I was not good enough for her coz she never laughed this much with me.

I was jealous.

When samuel pushed me! Oh! Boy he pressed my trigger button.

And I went off and charged at him non stop.

Adley! Was shook seeing us both fighting like animals.she was crying seeing us both fighting.

"Stay away from her if you can't treat her right!" Samuel screamed to my face, punching in my guts.

"Treating her right?...oh!!!I don't need to learn that from you!. I know what are you doing here!..... your gonna throw her away once get her in your bed! And fuc-"

I feel and sharp pain stinging my cheeks as clench my fists ready to break his face when I see shaking adley staring at me in broken state.

A tear leaves my eyes for the first time which I was trying to hold from the beginning as her hand comes in contact with my face Making me halt.

She was looking at me with anger and sadness.

"HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT ABOUT ME!!YOU ARE THE WORST!,THIS IS WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT ME? A GOOD FUCK??" she scream crys pushing my chest. Beating me with her tiny fists,Making me stop.

Samuel comes and holds her shoulder calming her down.

I know I shouldn't have said that I just said it at the heat of the moment. My hands starts trembling. I'm a bad guy and its showing.

The tears leave my eyes non stop.

I look at her face, which has turned red from shouting and crying.

"JUST LEAVE! PLEASE!" She shouts to my face.bteaking my heart.

I- I thought this was gonna be a special day....why does this have to be like this....why did I had to be like this.i shudder

She was so happy with him. But I ? I always make her cry.

She pushes my shoulder telling me to go!

I look at her,my fragile self who isnt able to utter a single word.

Takes hold of the silver thing she wrapped around my wrist and tear it away from my wrist and throwing it out of the building down in the bushes rudely in anger.

As I turn around to leave

She falls down on the ground breaking into tears.

How much do I want to turn around and hold her in my arms and give her all the love she deserves. But I know it's not worth it. I'm not worth it.

But before going away

"You know what adley? Maybe you didn't have choice this time,but in future if you have to choose between me and anyone...please choose them...coz if I were that important to you,then there won't be a choice in the first place"

I leave out as I run back to my house sobbing.

Adleys pov.

After hearing Ethan's words I completely lost it! It made me feel like some slut,is this all a girl worth for?to please them in the bed? aren't we a good friends who support each other, don't They know we too have a heart that cares?. And my hand automatically went up to slap him.

Now I know how it feels to be called a slut by our beloved ones,Ezra I know how this must have been to you. But atleast I have someone to hold me.

I leave out a choked sob as I remember him simply throwing the infinity bracelet I gifted him just like that,which I treasured so much.

"Samuel you should leave!" I say as he is holding my hands.

"Leyy! Its ok! I wanna stay"

"No! I'm fine! Please leave" I say calmly.

He looks at me as he nods

"Ok I'm leaving! But meet me in 2hrs I'll txt u the address,I have something to tell you!.....please! Just this once ,I won't bother after this promise."

My eyes are on the floor I just nod as I get inside my house, avoiding the stares from the others.

-

I have a hot bath,and lay on my bed thinking about everything that happened today!.....and I got all my answers.i knew what I was gonna do.

I turn towards my bedside table as My phone on it lights up.

I see a message from Samuel who sent me the address of a club nearby.

I don't care changing as I put on a hoodie and leave to the given address.my face looks like shit form all crying and stress.

I hear some voices coming from the bushes,as im leaving the building so I peek to look at the figure ruffling in between the bushes.

I smile at seeing the figure which is desperately searching for something among the bushes. Oh well I know what he is searching for. I laugh silently at his state.well he deserves it!

Idiot!

I shake my head,as I think it's the best if leave him by himself or it would hurt his ego.

So I leave the place silently.
