As Long As I Am With You

52

Five days flew so fast, I started to be extra careful from now on, Apollo's being overprotective too. It's all because of that stupid box. I looked out of the window, I honestly don't like him to worry about me. I know it will stress him out doing so, I want to know him that I'm fine, it's been five days and nothing has happened to me. It's probably someone trolling or someone trying to get my attention that they don't even deserve.

But I'm going to admit, I've been really really curious of who it was, I have to take care of the situation and confront whoever did that. Who else could it be? I sighed and rubbed my temples. I straightly went to my room to get changed. I flinched when my phone started ringing, I assumed it's Apollo.

"Hey baby, what are you up to?" I heard him say. I'm sorry Apollo. "Oh I'm hanging out with some of my friends tonight, don't worry about me!" I bit my lip. I really hate doing this.

"Ah, call me when you're home, I love you so much, please take care of yourself" he said and heard him sending kisses. Oh how I wish I can hug him right now.

"You too, I love you so sooo much" I said and ended the call. Yes, he would do that every single day just to check up on me. It's cute, I know but the fact that he have to do that because of worrying too much doesn't sit right with me. I want him to be stress free especially that he just got discharged from the hospital.

I grabbed my bag and headed outside, I straightly went to the train station and after waiting for about five minutes I got in. I distanced myself from everyone and I slowly drowned to my thoughts. "I can't believe I'm doing this.." I sighed and ran my fingers through my hair. I arrived and got out immediately.

I walked to the house I used to go to. I took a deep breath, I honestly gathered enough courage to do this. I've been thinking about this and I'm finally doing it. I finally knocked on the door.

The door swung open after two knocks, "Winter?" Robert said.

"H-hi" I cleared my throat. Fuck! I just want this to be over with. "What are you doing here?" He asked, his eyes were a bit red. Probably staying up late hooking with some girls, huh? "I want to talk to you" I gritted my teeth, realising I am actually doing it. I have to keep things smooth and clear so that I won't overthink anymore, it's fucking tiring.

"What is it? You finally made up your mind?" He leaned on the door and crossed his arms. My blood boiled seeing him smile, "No, I do not want to be back with you." I coldly said. His face looks really punch able right now.

The sexual tension between my fists and his face is stronger than any of the marvel characters.

"What is it?"

"Was it you?" I asked him, he suddenly looked confused. "What?" He responded. "Was it you.. who sent that box and messed up with Apollo's car?" My fists balled out of anger.

He shook his head and his eyebrows furrowed, "What? No, It wasn't me" he said. His face suddenly lit up, "Wait-- Apollo?" He sarcastically said. "Your new boyfriend?" He laughed.

"Shut your filthy mouth. Was it you?" I raised my voice, stopping him from laughing. He cooled down and cleared his throat, "Okay okay, it wasn't me. Seriously" he said.

"Believe it or not, I don't know who the fuck 'Apollo' is and I'm busy these past few weeks" he said with no emotion on his face. My lips parted slowly, "who could it be then..?" I whispered to myself and slowly walked backwards.

"Whoa whoa, am I missing something?" Robert said, trying to get my attention back. I shook my head and walked away, heading back home. "Hey! You can stay over for a bit! I have your favourite sushi!" He screamed and sighed when he saw me out of sight.

I went home and felt scared again. The fact that I have no idea who it is sent shivers down my spine. I remembered about Apollo, I called him. "Hey Ba-"

"Hey!" I cut him off. He was caught off guard, "Hey, what's up? You sound odd" he nervously laughed.

"Oh uhh the outing was canceled" I mumbled. "And I did some yoga that's why I sound like this" I lied once again. Sigh, I'm going to hell for this. I heard him chuckle, "Alright, go get some rest okay?" He said in his soft voice, I finally calmed down.

I smiled, "Yes, I will. Thanks" I replied. "You're welcome, princess" he paused.
