The Badboy Got Out Of Wattpad

50. Mistakes

Hazel

"He is Erden?!"

Just like Austin, my eyes are wide as I goggle back at him.

Shit.

I'm screwed. I will end up in jail this time, for sure.

The beating of my heart is galloping inside my chest, not knowing what to reply. "Uh..."

Erden is looking at us with narrowed brows, not grasping anything. My palms begin to feel sweaty as my mouth is unable to form words.

As my silence confirms everything, Austin nods to himself again and again in total disappointment. "Got it, Hazel." His lips stretch into a lackluster beam, before storming through the mass.

"Au-Austin! Wait!" I call out, but he ignores me and keeps proceeding away.

I run a hand over my face. Shit Hazel. Shit!

"Let him go. Why do you care?" Erden abruptly turns me back into his solid chest, forcing me to look at him. His face has crimsoned in anger as he is glaring at me. "And how does he know me?"

I can feel the veins of my neck throbbing. I've had enough! Along with the trouble that just arose, the alcohol in my system and the unbearable headache I'm experiencing, I can't control myself anymore. It was a freaking bad idea to get drunk! My teeth clench together, my arms dropping to the side.

"Erden! You always fucking mess up everything!" I pour out everything on him. His eyes stretch out a little at my sudden aggressivity. "Since you came into my life, you have fucking destroyed everything! Attracted so many problems!" He gapes at me in disbelief, his eyelashes batting repeatedly.

"I wish I've never written this book." The words keep escaping my lips without control. I don't know what I'm saying. I can't come to my senses. It just feels satisfying to release everything that I've amassed, blame him for everything. But I know I will regret everything tomorrow.

"I wish I've never dreamt about you!" This time, his eyes flood with tears. His mouth opens and closes several times in shock. "D-do you really mean what you're saying?"

Without thinking once, I shake my head in agreement. "I do Erden. I do!"

"H-hazel." He pleads, his voice shaking. "You're still angry at me. Pleas-"

"Yes! And it will never go!" I shout out, gripping my head in weariness. I'm not even giving a damn that I'm making a scene. "Just stay away from me!"

His eyes shut briefly at my words. The hurt on his face is inexplicable. He remains inert as such for some seconds before he nods, giving me a slight, asymmetric, painful smile. "Fine then." He then stares into my eyes for what seem an eternity. "G-goodbye Hazel." With that, he slowly walks away and disperses into the crowd. I blankly fix the pack of dancers, my heart feeling heavy.

God, what the hell am I doing?

I guess I need to call Lia and ask her to pick me up. And upset her as well for not telling her anything about Austin yet.

You're so loveable, Hazel.

~~~~~~~~~~~

Pick up Austin. Pick up.

I have been parading in my room, waiting for him to pick up the call. Since last night, I've tried to reach him about ten times. But he still doesn't want to talk to me. I need to explain to him everything before he probably fills a complaint against me.

My hand tightens around my phone as it has only been ringing.

Pick up the damn thing!

As I mutter some curses under my breath, I unexpectedly register his voice. "Hey, Hazel."
