Every Little Thing You Do (Westlife FanFic) [On-Hold]

Chapter 28 - On My Shoulder

My eyes started to blur as I tried to walk away. I heard him call my name but I pretended I didn't heard it.

I'm so done.

"Ana!" He kept calling. I ignored him but he didn't stop following me.

Suddenly, I felt his hands on my wrist. "Ana, what's wrong?"

I shut my eyes, trying to stop a pair of tears to come out.

"Please let go of my hand. I need to leave." I said in a cold tone. He did as I said, and then I started walking away.

"Ana, can we talk?" He still follows me. I want to try to talk to him like nothing's wrong but I can't help it. My feet wants to walk away. He doesn't even know I fell for him. What's the sense of talking to him if I'm just gonna cry in front of him?

"Not now, please."

"Ana."

The lads might have see us right now, so I walked faster.

"I'm sorry."

It hit me. He said sorry, but for nothing in particular. His sorry can't fix anything.

I glanced at him for a moment, then to the boys when I felt their gaze towards me.

"Lads! I can't join you for dinner tonight. Sorry! I really need to leave. Got stuffs to do. Bye!" I said all at once.

They continued jamming as if everything was fine. Kian gave me a worried look. I gave him a weak smile.

"Ana." He's still here.

"Let's just talk next time. I... I can't."

I immediately walked away with a really heavy feeling.  I felt a tear fell down my cheek.

Not here. Not now.

I stopped by the side of the street, waiting for a cab when I felt somebody's hand on my shoulder.

"You don't look okay."

I looked at him with my blurry eyes. I shook my head, wiping my tears but another pair of tears came down. They all came down one by one.

"Don't cry like that... I don't..." He shook his head too. The next thing I know, he was hugging me tight.

"I don't want to see you crying like that..."

I cried harder. "He... He still loves her, Kian. H-he always did."

He pat my back. He tried to comfort me in the best way he can.

"I can feel the signs already... but I didn't believed those."

He didn't say anything. But I know he listens to every word I say.

"I was thinking, maybe if I already let him court me, then we're probably be together now..."

Probably...

"But no... Either way, I would still be hurt if I found out he still loves her..."

I tried to hold my feelings back because I'm afraid of getting hurt, but here I am, feeling the pain I had caused myself. I was hurt anyway. 

"Why can't it be me?" I cried my heart out. He embraced me tighter.

I thought there will never be a day that he's the reason that I'll cry. But I was wrong.

This time, it's more painful.

"I should have listened to you. You warned me. Even Gail did. But I didn't. I'm such a fool."
