The Story Of Us

No Control

Lizzie's POV:

"Hey, you okay?" I ask the woman beside me, who is zoning out, staring into nothingness.

"Huh- oh, sorry, y-yeah, yeah, im fine, don't worry." She said, forcing a smile, then looking away from me.

I sighed, sitting up straight, turning to her

"I know you're not okay, you can tell me what's going on in your mind, you know." I said worriedly to my best friend, that i like.

"No, don't worry about me, i don't want to bother you with the things that is going on in my life." She said, shaking her head, but i hold her hands, looking at her in the eye.

"Please, tell me. You will never be a bother to me, that's why im here, for you to have someone who will listen to you, i can't just let my best friend be eaten up by her thoughts." I said, looking at her straight in the eye, letting her know that it's okay to tell. She sighed, and her shoulder slumped,

"The day i went to Scarlett, i- uh- i made a deal with her, well, not really a deal, but it's like that..." She said trailing of as she look down.

"What is it, love? You can tell me." I encouragingly said.

"She- uh...she doesn't want to sign the papers, we fought and i slept there, then the morning we ate breakfast, then i was gonna call you but my phone is shut down, so i just waited. Then her-..." She explained, then stopped at her last words, tears started to brim out of her eyes, making my heart clench.

"Then her, what, sweetheart?" I ask, looking at her sympathetically.

"The-...." She stopped once again, taking a deep breath as she continue. "The woman, s-she cheated on me, came..." Her voice got cut off by her own sobs, making me pull her in my embrace.

"S-she came, a-and, she has Scarlett's wedding ring....i- i don't know what to do...she said t-that, S-scar-scarlett is bored with me...a-and...i- i don't really know how to put the words in it, b-but she talked so little on me. I- i just- i felt so small...it h-hurts so much..." She cried out, stammering as she did.

Tightening my hug on her, while i rub her back, and brushing my fingers through her hair. I can't hep but feel my heart break for her, how can Scarlett do this to her? Poor girl, she doesn't deserve any of this. She deserves better.

"Shhhh, it's okay, baby, just let it out, im here, Lizzie's here, my love, shhh..." I said soothingly.

"It's just- h-how can they do t-that to me? H-how can s-she do this to me? A-am i not enough? Does the love that i gave her is not enough?... I-it hurts so much, Liz, i- i don't think i can bear another pain anymore." She continue to cry, her broken sobs and sniffles fill the atmosphere around us.

"Don't say that, Y/n..." I said softly. "You are more than enough, okay? You're more than enough, some people just don't see someone's worth, and it's not you fault that they are too blind to see it. But, always remember, you are more than enough, baby." I said in a matter of fact.

"Then why did she did that? Why did she- why?.... I just can't believe it. It's all too unbelievable..." She said once she started to calm down.

"Hey, look at me..." I demanded softly, holding her face, making her eyes meet mine.

"I know it's all unbelievable, but don't blame yourself, okay? It's their fault, it's her fault, not yours, so don't blame yourself, and don't overthink whatever that girl had said to you, okay?

You are more than enough- i probably said that a several times already, but it's the truth, Y/n, no words or numbers can describe how enough you are, hell i can't even began to tell you how much you meant to me, i can't seem to find the words to say how important you are, i can't find the right letters to the right words to express how worth it, and how of a beautiful human being you are...."
