He grabs me by the waist and squeezes me tight, putting his hand on my chin, looking into my eyes. "I… love… cake." "Cake!" I yelled. "Yeah, let's go get cake." That's my boyfriend Alex, we have been together for three years. I sigh as I ask, "why did you say that instead of I love you?" "Because I love cake, and I'm in the mood for some." "Okay, let's go get some cake," I say in defeat.
We go out to a cake shop and sit down at a table. I bite into the yummy strawberry cake as I look over at Alex and see him watching the other girls. "Babe, are you planning on eating?" "Yeah, I'll be right back. I have to pee." I roll my eyes and continue to eat my cake, and then I see a blond girl go into the bathroom. I want to trust him, but sometimes I don't know. Five minutes pass, and he's still not back. Then I walk to the door and knock, "Babe, are you alright?" There is no response. As soon as the door opens, the blonde girl emerges with her hair in a mess.
Now that I'm mad, I sit down to speak my mind to him. I hear the chimes of the entrance bell ring. I turn around to see a guy with slicked-back black hair, a leather jacket, and dark brown eyes. My face feels hot when he looks at me and winks. The chair in front of me moves. I spin my head around to see Alex. "What were you looking at?" He said with an edge in his voice. "Nothing," I said. I then saw lipstick on his neck. Tears start to form in my eyes, but I hold them back, trying not to make a scene.
I get up and start walking to the bathroom, just then that guy bumped into me smashing his cake onto my blouse. He catches me in his strong arms. "I'm sorry, are you ok?" He asked. "It's ok, I'm alright." As he sets me up straight he moves my strawberry red hair behind my ear, I can feel my ears getting hot. I walk past him into the bathroom. I grab paper towels and start cleaning my blouse, I then stop to look at myself in the mirror. "What am I doing?" My cheeks feel warm and I can see the tears falling down my face. "Why am I with him?" I wipe away my tears and prepare a smile, as I'm walking out I see that guy smiling and waving to me.
I walk over and sit down with him. "Are you sure you're ok, your eyes are red, did I make you cry?" I could tell he was concerned. "It's ok I'm fine and it wasn't you." He then glances past me to Alex. "Your brother looks mad so does your sister." I turn my head to see Alex staring at me and that blond girl sitting in my seat eating my cake. "Oh he's not my brother, he's my boyfriend and I don't have a sister plus I don't know her," I said in a low voice. "Oh, I'm sorry I didn't know, well you should go sit with them." I see him looking at my boyfriend with a cold dead glare. "You should go." He said, appearing a bit disappointed. "Yeah maybe." I dab my mouth on my napkin and slide it toward him and walk away. He looked down at it and nods his head. "Why were you talking to that guy?" Alex said looking mad.
"He seemed kind and wanted to apologize, but more importantly who is she?" "Her", Alex says as he points at the girl, "she is a friend and I invited her here." "Then why were you with her in the bathroom?" "You know what let's just go home I've lost my appetite." He grabs my arm in a tight grip and pulls me home. I look out the window and notice small droplets of rain. Alex was already asleep so I stepped out onto the balcony in my nightgown. I sigh a heavy sigh and look up at the sky letting the rain hit my face. It's cold but it feels pleasant. I hear my phone start to ring. "Oh, it's Milo." Milo is my older brother. He is off somewhere traveling around the globe. "Hey baby sis, are you still with that scumbag?" I laughed a bit. "Ah alas I still am but not for long." "Well let me know if he tries anything." He said sounding concerned. "I'll be fine." I lied. If he left me I would have no place to go because of... things. We talked for a while longer, then said our goodbyes.
