Same Mistakes

Part 13

*Darcy’s PoV*

I was sent to the store to pick up some groceries. I looked at my list; “Carrots, Apples, Milk, Eggs, Bacon….”

I thought produce would be a good start. I started to put the food in my cart when I heard someone call my name. “Darcy?” I turned around and saw Jacob walking over to me. Part of me wanted to meet him half-way and kiss him, the other part wanted to slap him for dumping over the phone, and not letting me say good bye. My feet just stayed frozen to the floor, and he looked down. “I’m sorry. I know you probably don’t want to see me, but I have to tell you this.” He looked back up, “I love you. I love more than life itself, and I can’t break up with you. Please tell me you’re not with someone else…”

I bit my lip; I had kissed Ethan, but that didn’t mean we were together, right?

“Not really…” I said, “But why did you say that? Over the phone?” “Mom told me to.” He said, “She was in the room telling me what to say. I wanted to make her happy, but if her happiness relies on me losing the only girl I’ve ever cared about…  She’s just going to have to be unhappy. Please take me back...”

I nodded, trying to not cry, "I love you too Jacob..." I pulled him close and kissed him, not caring who saw. I had my Jacob back.

*Ethan’s PoV*

I was watching TV when Darcy came home. “Do you have any carrots?” I asked, and she giggled, handing me one, Her giggle was weird, like she was in love. “So, are we going to The Horan/Payne house soon?” I asked, trying to dismiss it. She nodded, dreamily, and walked to the kitchen.

I followed her and wrapped my arms around her waist, and whispered, “I love you Darcy Styles.” She abruptly pulled away, and I looked at her confused, “Darce? What did I do?” “Nothing…” she said, still not looking at me, “It’s just… I have a boyfriend.”

Boyfriend? Wasn’t I now her boyfriend?

“Who?” I asked, and she sighed, “Jacob.” “What?” I asked, “You took that snake in the grass back.” “Yes.” she said, looking up at me, “Because I love him, and he loves me back. He’s always been there for me.” “What about that day he broke up with you?” I snapped, “He wasn’t there when you were about to cut yourself again. I WAS. But you don’t give a crap about me. I loved you, and I would do anything for you. You can’t act like you didn’t know that.”

My eyes were filling with tears, and I looked away, “Those girls at school were right. I take back what I said before; You are a player, and you don’t care who gets hurt.”

“Ethan…” Darcy started, but I shot her down with a cold stare, before leaving the house.

I didn’t know where to go, I just couldn’t be there.

*Darcy’s PoV*

The door slammed behind Ethan, and I started to cry. I didn’t mean to hurt him. I was lonely and Ethan would give me the affection I wanted. I didn’t love him… But I led him on.

I ran upstairs and found my blade. I cut 2 more wounds, “This one’s for hurting Ethan…" I gritted  my teeth before continuing, "...and this one’s for hurting everyone else.”
