Chapter 38

The next day. 

I got up from the couch without an alarm for once. I saw Edward sleeping with his phone in his hands. I walked to the small bathroom in the corner. I washed my face and freshened up a little bit. Not a second later I hear his phone vibrating. I ignore it at first but then walk closer to retrieve his phone when it continuously keeps vibrating. When I type in the passcode it doesn't let me in meaning he has changed it. But when I look at the amount of notifications he's got. I'm surprised. All from one person. Darcie. 

I keep his phone on the bed and walk out of the room to get something to eat for both of us from the cafeteria downstairs but then decide I'll wait there for a bit before going back to the room. Why would he be texting with Darcie all night? How long has this been going? 

Today's Monday! Shoot! I quickly open my phone to see a message from Mitchell. I open yeh chat and read it softly, smiling to myself. 

Mitch: I assume you're skipping today. Don't worry I'll get you the notes and I'll talk to your friend Ava for you. Be careful. And call me if you need anything. :)

Me: Hey. Thank you, Mitch. I'll meet you later today. Edward is better, I think and I have to go back home and then come back there. Have a nice day! 

Mitch: Hey. Did you sleep well? Any nightmares? 

Me: Yeah sort of. No :)

Mitch: We need to talk when you get back here. How's my place? I'll get some pizza!! 

Me: Thanks Mitch. That's really sweet. I'll meet up with you tonight. Bye!

Mitch: Yeah. Bye! 

Me: Wait! Are you still there??

Mitch: I'm still here, love. What is it? 

Me: I need to talk to you about something. I don't want to do it over text. It's kinda important to me and I don't want to believe my assumptions even though it seems like it and I don't want to ask him. I'll explain everything. I know what I'm saying now doesn't make sense. 

Mitch: Of course! I'm here for you, love. We'll talk soon. 

With that I shut my phone and walk to the elevator and back to Edward's room. When I walk in I find him seated up sideways on the bed. 

"I thought you left!" He said a little too loud. 

"I-I just went to get you some food" I tell him and he sighs. 

"Sorry I-"

"Nevermind" I mumble and give him the bag of food and sit on the couch.  

"What's wrong?" He asks, moments later. 

"Nothing" I don't look at him. 

"Liya, tell me what's wrong." Oh, you shouldn't have asked that. 

"Oh nothing, just my boyfriend has been texting this one person all night" I say looking straight into his eyes. 

"I was- how did you even? You checked my phone, didn't you?" He raises his voice. 

"Yeah-"

"I should've known! Why the hell can't you mind your own damn business?" He shouts and I gasp in shock at the way he's talking to me. It's like he doesn't even care or get what I'm feeling.
