"Help me! Get off of me!" I scream as I struggle against my attacker. I thrash my hands around until I feel my hand land on my candle. I clutch it so hard in my hand and swing back making it connect to the face of my attacker.

"What the fuck!" I hear a familiar voice say. I turn around to see Charlton clutching his hand to his forehead.

"Charlton? What the fuck are you doing in my house? More importantly, why did you sneak up on me!!?" I said confused.

"Sneak up on you? I just grabbed you by the waist. I was trying to be cute."

"So you sneak in my house to be cute?"

"No, I was coming here to make sure you got home okay. When I heard a car pull up I hid in your room because I was going to surprise you."

"Oh," is all I could say. I suddenly felt like an idiot, but then again I was angry because he just randomly snuck into my house.

"Charlie, seriously don't ever do that again. I could have severely hurt you."

"Well I mean, you kinda did severely hurt me, Tess. You hit me with a fucking glass candle jar. My head is fucking throbbing."

"I'm really sorry, but you kind of deserved it. Do you need me to get you anything though? You look like you're bleeding a little bit," I said as I walked towards my bathroom.

"If you have a bandage and possibly meds, that would be grand."

"Okay," I say as I rummage through my cabinets. I find a bandage for his head and medicine to ease the pain. When I get back to my room, I see Charlie laying down on my bed.

"Making yourself comfortable I see?"

"Well you took too long."

"I was in the bathroom for 2 minutes?"

"2 minutes too long," he said with a laugh. I walked over and took the bandage out of its package. I leaned over the bed trying to place the bandage on his head. He grabbed my waist and pulled me on top of him.

"What are you doing?" I ask.

"I'm helping you. You looked like you were struggling."

"It's not my fault I have small arms!" I say as I straddled him. I loved seeing the smile he has as he looks at me. I placed the bandage on his head and he winced at the contact.

"Owww!"

"I'm sorry! Does it really hurt that bad?"

"Yes it does!"

"What can I do to help?" I ask and suddenly regret it. Charlton gives me a seductive smirk.

"No. You'll be fine," I said as I began to get off his lap.

"Come on, Tess. You know you've missed me."

"Yes I have, Charlie, but you haven't seemed to care when you're hanging out with all these different girls and posting all these different pictures with them!" I exclaimed.

"Ohhh, jealous?"

"Yes! Yes I'm jealous!"

"Give me your phone then," he said.

"Why?"

"I'll take a picture and you can post it. It's your turn to make those girls jealous, is it not?"

"I don't want to go back and forth with a jealousy game, Charlton," I said as he grabbed my phone. He opened my phone, and his face suddenly changed.

"Who's Ethan?"

"What?" I asked surprised.

"Is Ethan the one you were with tonight?"

"Yeah. Megan introduced me to him and his brother Alex. You know how outgoing she is."

"Don't make this about Megan."

"Are you seriously mad right now?"

"Yes, I'm mad. Why do you have a random guy texting you telling you he had a good time tonight, and he can't wait to see you again?" He said enraged. I began to feel scared of his anger so I got off of him before he decided to push me off.

"Really? He asked for my number because he took me home. I didn't think I wasn't allowed to give my number out to other guys because I don't have a fucking boyfriend to tell me know, Charlton. You're not my boyfriend, you never were."

"You wanted me to be your boyfriend, but now that has changed?"

"I'm not getting into this with you right now. Please leave, Charlton. Maybe when you don't wanna be a five year old bitch I'll talk to you, but until then you can fuck off." I say even more enraged then I thought I could be.

"Whatever, Theresa. Have fun fucking a nobody." He said as he walked out of my room.

"At least a nobody treats me better then a somebody that thinks he's all fucking that." I yelled at him. I heard my front door slam shut. I looked out my window and saw Charlton get in his drivers car. This mother fucker has nerve. He comes into my house and has the audacity to get mad at me when he hangs out with more girls then I do boys. He's not my boyfriend, so why does he care so much?

I grab my phone and check to see the message from Ethan.

Ethan: Hey, I had a good time tonight. I can't wait to see you again!🤗

Me: Hey, ethan! I had a good time tonight too, and I hope to see you again soon!🥰

Ethan: What are you doing tomorrow?

Me: I don't think I have any plans. What do you have in mind?

Ethan: We could walk around town?🏙

Me: Sounds adventurous! I'm in!

Ethan: I'll see you tomorrow at noon?

Me: See you then☺️

Ethan: good night, Theresa!

Me: Goodnight!

I put my phone on my night stand and I looked up to my ceiling. I'm excited to hangout with Ethan tomorrow, but did I just do that because I want to get back at Charlton or did I do it for myself? Honestly, I don't know the answer to that question so I guess I'll see tomorrow. I grabbed my phone back and took a picture for my Insta.

Lovetheresa: Excited for tomorrow! Now for a good nights rest!😴❤️

Megannn: Omg^^🤣🤗

I looked at my comments and I saw Ethan had commented on my picture. I didn't even realized he followed me already! I looked in hopes for a snarky comment from Charlton, but he didn't even like the picture. Looks like I pissed him off good this time!

Authors note: I'm so sorry for the long delay! I have been super busy with work, but I'm going to try and get back into writing again!
