I'm Sorry.. (18)

If none else, please listen to this song. This is How Do You Love Somebody (HDYLS) by Why Don't We!! They are seriously one of the most amazing bands of all time! If you enjoy Lovejoy, you'll love Why Don't We. I love their new song so much that I based this entire chapter off of it!

I just bought tickets for their tour 💖💖💖

Y/N's POV :
-.-

When I realized what was going on, I immediately fixed my posture, and moved my hands away from my face. I looked at Aiden, to see him looking at me worriedly.

"Please tell me that this is just from back then.. I swear to god, if you're hurting my sist-" I cut him off, placing my hands on his shoulders. "No no! Aiden, it's fine. He didn't do anything!" I said, trying to calm him down.

He relaxed a bit, and stepped back. "Okay.." He said, letting out a breath. "Y/N.. What's he talking about..?" Clay asked, tentatively. "It's- It's nothing-" I said, quickly. "No, it's not. Y/N, what is he talking about?" He said raising his voice. If I couldn't see the worried look on his face, I'd think he was angry.

"You didn't even tell him?" Asked Aiden. I shook my head, staring at the floor. "Tell ms what..?" Clay asked. "I- Aiden.. Can we have a minute..?" I asked, looking at my brother. "Of course.." He said, walking into the room he was staying in.

"Why did you flinch..? Are you alright?- And what did Aiden mean by 'back then'?" He asked, bombarding me with questions.

"It's nothing, I'm fine, and- I don't know what he was talking about.." I lied. I lied about rash and every one of those questions. I felt terrible for lying to Clay, but I just couldn't tell him..

"Y/N- Please tell me the truth.. I- I know I haven't been the best boyfriend lately.. but I'm really worried.." He said, putting a hand on my cheek.

I couldn't take it, anymore. I hugged Clay tightly, letting the tears that I had been holding back fall freely. He hugged me back, gently rubbing my back.

"Shh.. It's okay.." He said, as I cried onto his shoulder. "Do you wanna talk about it..?" He asked, softly. I shook my head no, and hugged him tighter. "Alright.. That's fine.." He said.

-.- The Next Morning -.-

I awoke early the next morning, only to realize that Clay wasn't in the room. I was confused, since he never gets up early. That's when I heard my phone ding.

I took it off of the charger, before clicking on the notification. As soon as I read the message, my heart immediately dropped.

Clay 💚✨🥸

We should break up..

You're joking right?

Clay, please tell me you're joking..

I'm sorry.

Clay, please. We can talk about this.

Can you at least tell me why?
