Chapter Twenty-One: Ex-Fiancée

♥︎Jade's POV♥︎

"Y-Yeah I do... Why do you ask?" Because maybe I am in love with you? Haven't I made that painfully obvious for the past four agonizing years?!

I close my eyes shut and breathed in and out a few times, "Liz? Are you alright?" I hear Andy come out, "Yep!" I pipe up.

I open my eyes to see him pretty damn tense, then his phone started playing 'Afterlife' by Avenged Sevenfold.

He had always known I loved that song... Did he just forget and use it just because he liked it? Yeah.. That has to be the reason.

He looks down at his phone, and pulls a sour face, almost as if he just put thirteen of those sour-heads into his mouth.

"Sorry I have to take this," he says as his face hardens, "Okay," I mutter back.

I didn't get to see the caller ID, but I am not going to eavesdrop on his conversation... Okay maybe just a little bit. But who can resist?

So I got off of my couch and stalked off near the door of the room he went in, which was my bedroom. Meh, whatever. I pushed myself against a sliver of a wall and moved my head towards the crack in the door. But I can only hear muffled voices. Well only Andy's.

♥︎Andy's POV♥︎

-J= Juliet, A= Andy-

J: Baby where'd you go?
A: To Ohio.
J: Why are you in Ohio?
'She sounds kind of relieved..'
A: I am visiting my parents. 
J: Oh..
A: Yeah... 
J: C'mon baby come back to bed!
A: J-Juliet? Who is that?
J: I - uh - Juju I am horny!
A: Screw you Juliet, we're DONE.
J: N-no! Andy plea-

I ended the call before she can finish.

So she was just cheating on me this whole  time? To think I was going to spend the rest of my life with that. 

I get up from her bed, then I notice my surroundings. She still has those band posters she has had since she was merely fifteen. I smile as I reminisce, until my eyes fall upon an old, wooden box.

I know I shouldn't be snooping around, but I feel as if I should check it. I gently open up the lid and saw two dreadful items I wished I would never see in Jade's possession. 

Razors.

♥︎Jade's POV♥︎

I didn't hear any more talking, but I still stayed in my position. After a minute of silence I heard shuffling. I ran back to the couch and plopped back down, silently playing with my fingers. 

It took him a while to get out but then the door clicked open. I stared off into the distance, until I felt a tap at my shoulder.

"What are, these?" He says while holding up one of the two unused razors.

"I - uh, I never used them," I scramble, "Liz, give me your arm," he says in a warning tone, "W-why? Do you really not trust me to keep our promise?"

His eyes widen slightly, "You remember that?" "Yeah, how could I forget?" His whole expression softens, "Are you sure you kept it?" "Yes Andy, I'm not a moron," "Then why do you still have it?"

It took me a while to figure that one out, "I don't know," I shrug, "Why don't I believe those words?" "Because...?" I murmur, uncertain of the right answer. "Lovely answer Liz." Andy playfully rolls his bright blue eyes. 

Even when he jokes around, I know what's really going on. The engagement of Juliet and Andy, has come to a bitter end.

But obviously I couldn't tell him that I listened to his whole conversation, so I just had to play it off. "Hey, Andy what happened, back there?" I ask putting in effort to sound curious, "What do you mean?" He asks, pulling a tight smile. 

"Don't act stupid, what's up?" "If I tell you, promise me not to kill anyone?" "No promises, now tell me," he laughs at my response, "Uh Juliet-cheated-on-me-and-we-got-into-a-fight-and-broke-off-the-engagement," he replies all in one breath, attempting to cover it up. Too bad for him, I already know. 

"So the engagement is off?" I ask, "How the hell-" "I have my ways Sack," he rolls his eyes in response to my nickname.

"Yeah.. I guess I'm single again."
