"corbyn you don't mean that... you're just upset right now, and again, i never meant to hurt you" i defended. "oh no, i meant it. i never would've even thought to talk to another girl because you're the only girl i even thought about... but i guess you can't say the same. i can't believe i ever thought we could've been good together, i deserve so much better than 𝙮𝙤𝙪" he said that last word with venom laced in his voice.

at this point tears were prickling behind my eyes and i now felt hurt more than i felt sympathy for corbyn. i expected him to be upset, but not get so aggressive and angry. i was done with this, and i just didn't want to see him anymore... so much for staying friends. "corbyn... i think you should go" i softly stated, not making eye contact again. "oh don't worry, i am" he said and stood up to walk to the door. i stood up to, to shut the door after him but before he got to the door he turned around and walked up to me angrily

he stood only inches from my face and i could feel the heat from his words as he said "you're nothing like i thought you were... you're nothing but a slut" he locked eyes with me, and i could see his hatred for me. he huffed out the door and slammed it and then i broke down. i cried on the couch for what felt like forever. my head was swimming with thoughts. was i really as cruel as the words corbyn said? was it wrong of me to give zach a chance when i was talking to corbyn? i mean we weren't even dating, so was i still in the wrong for listening to my heart?

after wallowing for awhile i reached for my phone. when i scrolled my contacts i didn't have a specific person in mind to call, i just needed someone. my finger hovered over zachs name for a minute before i actually hit call, he immediately could tell i was upset and said he'd be over in 15 minutes. i crashed back down onto the couch until he arrived.

zach showed up with a milkshake and his warm, comforting smile as i let him into my apartment. i filled him in on everything, but i decided to leave out corbyn's name. zach didn't need to know, it was over now anyways. "i can't believe that jerk said all that stuff about you, i'd hit him so hard if he were here right now" zach said through gritted teeth. i laughed a little seeing zach act like this, it was nice to have him be protective of me but also a little funny since he's always so smiley and happy.

"it's alright, i mean i guess it made sense... he was hurt" i softly replied "what? y/n no... no guy should ever speak to a girl like that. ever. no matter how mad or upset he was with you, he shouldn't have said all that... and none of it's true. i hope you know that" he said rubbing his thumb in circles over the back of my hand as he looked me right in the eyes. "i- i do know. thank you, zach. i really appreciate you being here for me... boyfriend" i said, the last part with a little smile.

zach's face lit up when i said that, finally anwsering his question from last night. after that he kissed me softly and then we decided to watch a movie to get my mind off the dramatic afternoon i'd had. i really liked zach, he made me feel happy in a way nobody had in a long time. maybe it was that comforting feeling i got because i felt like i knew him, even if i had only briefly met him once, years ago.

for a moment i thought about telling zach about the first time we met, the 𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙪𝙖𝙡 first time we met, not at starbucks... but my eyelids started to get heavy. i didn't feel like bringing it up at the moment, so i slipped the thought to the back of my mind for the moment. as i cuddled closer to zach, i dozed off and finally this disastrous day was put behind me. ___________________________________
