Out of the Blue

Cheryl and Logan - just a small discussion

Lea’s POV

I was still sitting with Logan in the same location. Nathan hadn’t gone inside for hours. All of a sudden the door opened letting Nathan and a girl with blonde hair in curls. He didn’t seem like he was comfortable around her; was she a fan? Or was she his ex? I’m not that jealous; I’m just a bit uncomfortable seeing the girl. Nathan sat down on my left side and held my hand. The girl had madness in her eyes while looking at the two of us and Logan had the same look on his eyes.

“Who is she?”

Nathan looked back to the blonde and then looked at Logan.

“Lea this is Cheryl – Cheryl, Lea”

“Nice to meet you”

She shook my hand and sat down beside Logan.

“Nate this is Logan – Logan, Nate”

He was just giving him a glare like Tom’s. It looked like his at the photo in there ‘Wanted Wednesday’, I didn’t remember what Wednesday that was but I think they were eating lunch or something. Nathan must’ve noticed his reaction, he held my hand tighter.

Cheryl walked to the bathroom flinging her purse by her shoulder.

“Give me a minute”

I stood up and walked to the bathroom where Cheryl was looking at the mirror applying some lip-gloss. She turned to me and had an evil grin plastered on her face.

“What do you want, Cheryl? What do you want from the two of us?”

“I want you to stay away from Nathan; he’s mine. I got him first before you did; I came earlier than you. Somehow I was proud that Ellie was taken away; if she wasn’t we couldn’t have started this. Ellie was a mess and she hadn’t even cleaned it up yet. You also made a mess that is just impossible to clean up. But me – I’m neat”

“You no good person; what even caused your breakup anyway? What was the reason why you broke up? Tell me. Why did the two of you broke up”

“Nathan wasn’t in love with me. He was in love with Ellie and he didn’t wanna let her go. Ellie was unforgettable for him – there were nights he would cancel dates because he said he couldn’t get over her. Until we broke up after three months of our relationship – that’s all I wanted. I wanted to be with him”

“But you can’t have him now”

I walked out the restroom and out the bar.

Nathan’s POV

So – here I am stuck in the bar with Lea’s ex who is giving me glares. I know – I’m supposed to get use to this because I’m with someone who always gives glare. Just to ignore the glares – I read the boys’ old messages on my phone. It’s useless, but I need to find a way just to ignore him. 

“Dude, I’m talking to you”

I put my phone down and looked at him.

“What did you say?”

“I was talking to you about Lea. She’s stuck with a wrong guy. If you think you’re the right guy, you’re wrong”

“Then who do you think is the right one, you?”

“I didn’t say anything – I just want her back and I’m gonna promise I’ll never hurt her”

“You shouldn’t have thought about that before cheating on her. You dated an amazing girl who understands how much love you give to her and you wasted that opportunity”

Yes – he cheated on her. Probably she might have said that she just left him but she left him for being caught red-handed kissing another girl at her birthday. Tom told me the story. That’s why I know it.

“Don’t you talk to me about our past – I may have done that before but I’ll never do it again”

“As if”

I went back to my phone and called Tom. Alright, I’m just asking him what really happened between Lea and Logan. He picked up after two rings on his phone.

“Hey Nate, so how’s my sister?”

“She’s fine but I called to ask you what really happened to Lea and Logan”

“Logan cheated on her. Why did you ask?”

“Cheryl and Logan are here. Cher and Ley are having a private girl-to-girl talk in the bathroom and Logy and I are – I think were having a stare-off”

“Don’t cheat Nathan”

“I’m not like him, okay”

I put my phone back in my pocket and waited for Lea or Cheryl to go out the restroom.

“Who was that?”

“Lea’s brother; dude, do you even know Lea’s full name?”

He rolled his eyes and looked back at his phone. Guess he doesn’t. Lea went out the restroom then out the bar. I followed her all the way to the end of the pier. She sat down while rubbing her cheeks. I sat down beside her and held her hand.

“What did you and Cheryl talk about in there?”

“It was nothing; it was nothing to worry about Nathan. Just a small discussion”

I held her hand tighter and made an eye-contact.

“Lea- what did the two of you talked about? I’m calling your brother if you don’t tell me in fifteen seconds”

She remained quiet and looked at the ground. Lea was definitely acting weird; she usually says everything we ask her, even when we both were back in Abbeydale. I raised her head up and made another eye-contact – you might be wondering about this eye-contact-thing, we use to do this to each other so we could spill the beans.

“Maybe we should talk privately”

We both were sitting at the rock by the end of the beach. No one was with us – we both were alone – no one bothering the two of us.

The sun was shining brighter than it was in Bolton; I’m really wondering what the boys are doing right now. I’m really wondering more about what Lea and Cheryl were talking about than what mischief the boys have actually been doing right now.

“Why did you want us to talk privately, Nate? The pier was alright”

“Ley, just tell me what you and Cheryl were talking about and its over. We’re not gonna have a long discussion”

“Nathan, just get over it okay?”

“No it is not. It is not okay, she might have said something discouraging”

She looked away from me while rubbing her hands together. They both were becoming red. I’m really worried about what they both were talking about.

“Well – at least tell me what you have in mind”

That time – she looked at me with her eyes filled of sadness. What does this mean?

“I’m breaking up with you”
