The Story Of Us

Tragedy

Y/n's POV:

"I'm so fucking tired." I said that came out as a whisper as I lean back, resting my head at the headrest, while tears flow down to my cheeks.

"I don't know what to do anymore, I don't want this relationship to end up like my past ones, so please, just let me go for a while." I said quietly, not trusting my own voice to speak up for me as im mentally exhausted already.

"We'll talk about this at home." She said quietly and started to drive again, but not before she took my hand and rest it at the gear stick, caressing it, holding it tightly as if i'm  gonna disappear.

I'm too exhausted to react, I want to take back my hand, but not at the same time as I don't want to miss the comfort she's giving me.

I think I have slept, because the next thing I know there's a hand caressing my cheeks, with a gentle voice calling me softly.

"Hey, love, we're here come on." Scarlett said unbuckling me, after that we both made our way out of the car and get inside the house, I get in first, her following me.

I go to the living room and she went to the kitchen, doing god knows what. I just sit back in the sofa and close my eyes, resting. A few seconds later, the smell of butter with bacon can be smelt everywhere, meaning, she's cooking.

I never knew I was hungry until now. While she cook, I took out my phone and decided to text Lizzie.

Lizzard

:Hey liz, we're here at the house already. And don't worry, i'm fine.
9:18

To my surprise, she quickly texted back as if she's already waiting for it.

:Good. And we both know you're not fine, Y/n. I'm sorry for how I acted earlier, I just didn't want her to overwhelme you than you already are.
9:18

:No, no, it's fine, I understand. Thank you so much for everything, Liz. I'm sorry too for how she acted.
9:18

:Don't worry, i'm fine. Just give me a text or a call if you need me, okay?
9:18

:Yes, I will thank you so much. Anyways, bye for now, she's here.

With that, I shut my phone and look at the plates she's putting infront of me.

"Hey, you should eat first." She said softly while I just stayed silent and take the plate, which I assumed is mine and started eating the foods in it.

I just look at the plate, not gazing at her, but I can feel her eyes on me, watching my moves carefully as if i'm gonna break. Well, I might. And she definitely knows that, she knows how this is affecting me, I don't know if she knows it fully, but atleast she knows.

She knows my traumas and fear of abandonment, she knows that things I had been through to my past relationships. She's been there with me all along, but now, she's with me experiencing it. Now, she's the one who's causing it.

After I finish, she took the plate out of my hand and rest it at the table while I drink the rest of my water. After that, I just lean back again, closing my eyes letting out a shaky sigh, rubbing my forearm.

As I rest, I felt hands snaking around me, pulling me towards them, but quickly shook it off and sit down straight.

I don't have time for this, I need to be stronger than this. I don't want to be manipulated again.

"Let's talk." I said, looking her straight in the eyes.

I saw her face fall at the move I made, but I couldn't careless about it.
