A HEAVY SIGH LEAVES mackenzie's lips, her eyes drifting over to maggie, "brandon wants to know where i was last night.." she mutters out, quickly replying to the unknown number with a quick message of a time she was fully free.
"he what?! as if he deserves to know," maggie frowns her eyebrows, taking ahold of mackenzie's voice and reading brandon's message,
Brandon🤍
Where were you last night? i was worried sick.maggie frowns her eyebrows in anger, "absolutely was not worried sick! avrey texted me earlier saying her and harry saw him at the club with some other girl!" the brunette says angrily, cursing the dark brunette male she has learnt to hate.
brandon and mackenzie have been dating since they were only 20, but the relationship was never lovely and it never ran smoothly, brandon was toxic, from what mackenzie know he's cheated on her at least twice and he was verbally abusive to her, always using her past against her,
"you're not telling him anything kenzie, he doesn't deserve to know about how you had a great time!" maggie says with a sour expression as she leaves brandon on read, mackenzie gulps slightly, nodding in response, "alright...i won't,"
maggie's eyes drift down mackenzie's voice as she heard a notification go off
Unknown
Alright! i can meet you outside of this cafe tomorrow morning then, i have training later so i sadly can't make any other time, hopefully that's fine :)
*shared location*"ah! he's texted you again!" maggie's expression lightens up and a goofy smile appears on her lips, "who?!" mackenzie quickly takes her phone out of the brunette's hands, looking down at the text and a blush covers her cheeks, "mr unknown of course," maggie says with a small smirk, leaning her elbow on the counter and placing her chin in the palm of her hand, "you're going to see him tomorrow?" maggie asks with a small smirk on her lips, "just to give back his hoodie yes." mackenzie replies with a small roll of her eyes as she plugs her phone after texting him back and she walks back to the living, maggie following after her.
the next morning mackenzie isn't only woken up my her phone alarm but also loud knocks on her apartment door, causing a tired groan to slip past her lips, "give me a minute!" she yells at whoever was at her door, the female grabbing an oversized sweater and pulling her pyjama shorts down, the female grabbing a hair tie and tying her hair into a messy low bun as she walks towards the front door, yawning slightly.
the female grabs her keys from the table besides her front door and unlocks it, her eyes widening as the person at the door pushes it open, nearly making her stumble back,
"where were you that night?" brandon's angry voice causes shivers to appear on mackenzie's skin, not only because of the cold that the door let in but the way his voice made her feel, an anxious making her feel sick in the pit of her stomach.
"i was at the club brandon..." she replies back, the male slams the door closed in response, "don't lie to me!" brandon yells back, mackenzie's eyes widening in shock at his tone, "where were you that night?" he says in a stern voice, grabbing her jaw roughly and making her look him in the eyes, the anger she saw in his expression caused her expression to fall, tears building up in her eyes,
the strength that his hand that held her jaw had caused her jaw to start to ache, the female's hand taking ahold of his wrist, "i was at the club brandon..." she says, tears building up in her eyes as she saw his expression change, the male laughed loudly, and soon the female's eyes widen as she hears him spit in her face, the male pushing her against the wall, his arm moving to her neck, gripping onto it tightly, "i'll ask you one more time. where the fuck were you that night?" his voice caused mackenzie to start to shake, her shaky hand holding onto his wrist as she feared the worst,
"i was at maggie's house. i'm sorry i didn't tell you," she cries, clenching her eyes closed as she got herself ready, "at least you weren't being a slut and with another man," he says in a softer tone, letting his grip on her neck loosen as she starts to sob, sliding down the wall as soon as he let go of her due to the weakness in her legs, the female hides her face in her sweater, trying to control her sobs.
"i'll see you later baby," he says with a soft smile, taking ahold of her jaw once again and placing a ever so soft kiss on her lips, which she wanted to push him away from, feeling disgusted by him.
as soon as the male left the female's apartment, she ran towards her phone, her sobs slipping past her lips as she dialled maggie's number,
"hey kenzie, what's up- kenzie? why are you crying?" maggie's voice turned into s concerned tone as she heard mackenzie's sobs, "um...brandon was here. can you please come over?" the black haired female sobs over the phone, maggie quickly replying with a quick yes and mackenzie hears the shuffling on the side of the phone, and maggie telling her boyfriend she'll be back soon, "...thank you mags," mackenzie smiles slightly, forever appreciating the support her friends gave her.
15 minutes later and maggie was holding a slightly shaking mackenzie in her arms gently, avrey already on her way with jade to support their best friend. this happened a lot whenever brandon would confront mackenzie about something, he would start off gentle but soon heat up and start calling her a liar, he would start yelling at her, throwing violent words into her face, breaking her heart and disappointing her once again throughout their long relationship that had an overdue date on it already.
"babes..you should break up with him," avrey says as she sits down besides maggie, jade placing down a small tray of sushi on the table as she sits on the other side of mackenzie, wrapping her arms around her,
"you know he isn't good for you," jade explains with a small frown as she admired mackenzie upset expression, tears starting to start down her face, "i-i know..." she chokes out, "but he can be so perfect...he can be so sweet," she cries out, she knows she's just lying to herself, brandon always just disappointed her, always led her on and then broke her heart in two.
some would say she was the love of his life until she gets him mad.
