It's Fate

(23) Broken-Boy

Justins’ POV

*Flashback*

"Have you ever wondered why your girlfriend looks like that famous pop star, Selena Gomez?"

"Have you ever wondered why I don’t like to talk to you?" I shot at her, hearing her gasp from the sudden comeback.

"I’m only looking out for you." She continued to talk, making me mentally groan.

"Cailin. I don’t fucking care. Just leave Summer and me alone. Don’t you get it? I don’t give a shit about you." I yelled at her, attracting attention but I ignored all the eyes landing on me and walked out of the cafeteria. 

*End of Flashback*

I never thought this day would come. The day where I felt betrayed, alone and broken. I was that special antique vase that your parents always warned you to stay away from, but you never did so when it smashes, you cry your heart out trying to fix it back together again. 

*Flashback*

"I’m glad you’re back, I was missing you like hell." I confessed, kissing her temple gently.

"I missed you too. So tell me, why were you so angry?" She asked me.

"Cailin just barking on about you again." I rolled my eyes. We stopped at my locker.

"What did she say?" Summer questioned, tapping her fingernails on the locker beside mine.

"Something about how you look like some famous pop star. If anything, she’s just jealous." I said, harshly grabbing my gym bag out of the locker. I noticed how Summer was lost for words, her eyes were a little wider than usual.

"Summer?" I called, waving my hand in front of her face. She snapped out of the trance and looked at me.

"I just remembered that I had to give something to Demi. I’ll you see you later babe." She muttered, a fake smile plastered on her face. She walked off. Still tired from before, I let her slip away from my hold.

Talk about weird. Why is everyone acting strange around me?

*End of Flashback*

Why did I not see this coming? It all makes sense now.

*Flashback*

"I know who you are, Summer." Taylor jumped straight to the point. 

"Of course, I’m Summer Richardson. Who else?" Summer laughed, feeling slightly nervous.

"No. I know who you really are." Taylor emphasised on "really". 

"Just straight up tell me now." Summer ordered, feeling annoyed. I peeked a little bit more so that I could see the both of them.

"Selena Gomez." Was all Taylor said to make Summer stiffen. I was confused as to why Taylor was now mentioning this ‘celebrity’ to my girlfriend. I rolled my eyes at the games Cailin and Taylor were playing with us. 

*End of Flashback*

I’m in love with a female who was a made-up character. At least, that’s what I think. The images of the video popped into my mind, as I closed them shut tightly so it would all fade away. 

*Flashback*

"Cailin, what the fuck are you fucking playing at? I know you have people to create this false bullcrap." I raised my voice at her. 

"Open your fucking eyes and realise that the girl in front of you, isn’t who she says she is." Cailin yelled back in the same tone.

I glanced over at my girlfriend who was now on the verge to tear up. I knew that I had softened up to the state she was in, something I was weak of seeing. I quickly pulled her into a hug but she rejected.
