Deja's POV Right now I'm taking a walk around the streets of New York, trying to clear my head. After the fight that I had with Lucas, we sat down and had a long talk about it.
"Precious you have to trust me okay? I would never hurt you in any way." Lucas tried to reassure me and I nodded, playing with my fingers
"I know.. It's just the thought of you doing with someone else scares me.. And it breaks my heart because I know you deserve better than me. You deserve the world Lucas.." I said softly and he lifted my head to look me in the eyes.
"Baby I don't want anyone but you, I only love you. We're in this for life, I don't plan on letting you go anytime soon. So stop thinking negative and focus on the positive, no one matters in the relationship except for me and you. I know you have trust issues and you feel like people will leave you in the end but I'm here to stay." He wiped away tears that I didn't even know were falling. I tackled him in a hug, crying into his neck.
"I'm so sorry." I sobbed as he rubbed my back
"It's okay.. We'reokay.."
I feel as though that fight has brought Lucas and I closer and we definitely communicate more than we already did. I saw the park up ahead so I made my way over there and sat down at the bench. I haven't spoken to anyone today, I felt like I need a day to myself.. To gather my thoughts before seeing anyone. Ever since moving here, I never got time to myself.. Even though I never wanted it before since that was all I ever had but now I need it more than ever. Only dad and Lucas knows that I'm avoiding everyone for time to myself, the group has been blowing up my phone all day but sometimes I just don't want to speak. I just want to think about how my life is going and what I can do to improve in a way that benefits me and the people around me. I didn't want to slip back into that depressive hole that I was in before so I have to make sure I'm okay.. My phone ringing brought me out of my thoughts and I looked to see that my dad was calling me. I answered
"Hello?"
"Hey Kiddo, how you feeling?" He asked and I smiled softly
"I'm okay, just thinking. Everything okay?" I said and he sighed
"Everyone is asking for you since you haven't been answering their calls or texts. Of course I'm acting like I don't know anything because I feel like you need this time alone." He says
"I should be heading back home in a hour , I have been gone all morning so. I'll call everyone back when I get home, will you be there by the time I get back?" I asked
"Yea I should be, I don't have much work to do. Do you want me to pick up some food?" I thought for a second
"Yea, some Chinese and make sure you get-" he cut me off
