Weak For Him || Darkness Book #1 ✔️

Chapter 59 | Wallowing

Victor's Pov

Sitting in my house alone, I stretch my body feeling knackered from a long day at work and wonder what Stacey's doing? Wait No! I don't care about her.. them. I need to move on. I am!
Sitting up, I check my phone and see a text from Kai.

Kai: Going out for food and drinks I'm picking you up.
You're done moping. Be ready. I'll be there in 30mins.

Climbing the stairs, I make my way to the bathroom and jump in the shower.
Washing my body quickly, I rinse and jump out not having much time. Walking into my bedroom, I look for something to wear and just pull out blue jeans and a grey jumper. Not really in the mood for anything anymore.
Pulling on fresh boxers, I get dressed and run my hands through my wet hair. Why would she choose Liam over me? What's he got that I don't.. accept a criminal fucking record.
Making my way downstairs, I pour myself a whiskey while I wait for Kai to come pick me up. He's intending to get me drunk. I know his trick.
Downing it, I make my way outside hearing him beep his horn and lock up quickly.
Climbing into his car, I look at his smiling face and give him a small one back not really feeling in the mood.
"Do I have to do this man. I just wanna stay at home" I tell him sighing but he drives off.
"Yes. She clearly didn't deserve you if she's gone back to her ex" Kai says and I sigh heavily.
"I don't want to talk about her or Liam tonight, okay" I tell him and he sighs.
"Alright bro, where going to steakhouse and then drinks after, alright?" he says and I nod needing food anyway. There's only so long you can live on cereal for.

Arriving at the restaurant Kai pulls up and switches off the ignition, looking toward me.
"Sian's meeting us here as well, she's bringing a friend from work" he tells me and I roll my eye, not impressed. No one wanted to meet anyone.
"Really, you're setting me up?" I question irritated. Why would Sian bring a date for me?
"Just try it, if you don't like her then at least you came out the house for something other that work" he says and I sigh again annoyed more..
"Let's just get this over with" I tell him and climb out the car. Walking into the restaurant, I wait for Kai and he tells them the reservation and we get lead to a table where I see Sian and her friend.. another blonde. Kai knows I like brunettes why would he set me up with a fucking blonde..
"Hey babe" Sian says to Kai and kisses him. There the only two that have lasted out of the three of us for fuck sake.
"Hey Victor, this is Emily, Emily.. Victor" Sian says and I smile at this Emily girl.
"You alright" I ask her and she smile at me.
"Yes thanks, it's nice to meet you Victor" she says and I nod..
"Same" is all I say not in the mood. Sitting down next to her the waiter arrives and takes our drinks order and scurries off quickly.
"So how you been?" Sian asks me and I sigh.
"Been better, what about yourself?" I ask her not really caring for this conversation.
"I'm good, works hectic" she says and Emily hums agreeing.
"Tell me about it" Emily says and rolls her eyes. All I see is Stacey rolling her eyes, smirking.
I miss my babygirl more and more every day. This Emily girl has nothing on Stacey.
She looks short too and I don't favour the shorter girls.
"So Victor, tell me about yourself" Emily says and Kai looks at me giving me the 'be nice' look and I roll my eyes at him.
"I'm 21, live alone and just broke up with Sian's best friend" I tell her and she gasps.
"Oh I'm sorry, this must be hard for you then" she looks at Sian like 'why didn't you tell me'..
"I'm good thanks though" I just tell her not wanting to get into it. Our drinks arrive and I back the contents straight away.
"Same again, bring me two" I tell the waiter and he looks at me strange. Fucking do it, shit.
"I'll bring them right out" he says and walks off.
"What happened Victor? I don't get why she'd break up with you she was well into you" Sian says looking at me and I clench my jaw.
"She's back with fucking Liam" I spit agitated that I have to talk about them.
"You're being serious?" she says not being able to stop her smile and I just nod. Do I look like im fucking joking? Why the fuck is she smiling for!?
"Kind of makes sense now, he's her first love" she says like that's fucking helping me. All she's doing is pissing me off. Kai looks at me like calm down and I just slump in my seat. I'm no fun and I don't want to be here.
"You deserve better like I told you. Just have some fun" Kai says and I sigh again.
"I need alcohol" I tell him and I see the waiter finally coming with my drinks. Why's it so hard to move on when she treated me bad giving me all these problems.
"That's my best friend and shes not like how your thinking she is. She's weak for Liam and always has been. I knew if he came back around she would get back with him. It was only a matter of time really" Sian says defending Stacey. And I laugh loudly. I really shouldn't share my thoughts right now but I can't help it.
"Mind your fucking business" I tell her getting more agitated. She stares me down giving me a dirty look.
"Don't speak to her like that" Kai warns and I just look at him.
"There's no need to be rude to me I'm just stating facts. I'm sorry if that hurts your feelings. You stood no chance, no guy does" Sian tells me bluntly and I shrug.
"I don't care can we just drop it" I say raising my voice a little. I need more alcohol.. And fast.
