Adonis's Pov
No?
I shouldn't have let her walk away, but I did.
No one and I mean no one has ever rejected me. Did she not feel the same way? I thought we were making progress. For fucks sake I was fallling head over heels for her.
I feel so foolish. Stupid feelings. Why couldn't I have just kept quiet.
I fixed my sweater and turned on my heel walking out of the room. I wanted to break something, but knowing my family was downstairs I couldn't let that happen.
I walked back over to sit all eyes on me. "Where did Zara go?"
"She had to step out." They all went back to eating and I couldn't stop thinking about the look of shock on her face. Was it that unbelievable for me to want to be with her? She was gorgeous and she had something about her I couldn't get enough of.
I wouldn't- I couldn't let her walk away from me that easily. Just for someone else to take interest in her. She was a gem and I would kill- "Adonis!" I look around and see mama from the dining entrance.
"Dinner has been over for 5 whole minutes. Go home."
5 minutes?
I rose to my feet and walked over to my concerned mother. "I was just thinking."
"About Zara huh?" She smirked. "What happened baby boy?" Mama always saw right through me. Mateo was always the rebel child, I was the mama's boy.
"She probably hates me. I confessed my feelings to her like you said to do but she stormed off."
"Oh my sweet boy, you know I think she likes you too. I know she does. Adonis doesn't stop fighting for her." She pulled me into a hug and I wrapped my arms around her body. "Because if you do, it won't be pretty."
"Mama." I drew out. "Let me go."
"Get going and don't forget who popped you out."
I walked around the corner and saw Elias sitting by his shoes. "Finally, I thought I would have to learn to drive." He is starting to pick up on Zara's mannerisms.
"So funny, let's go and stop acting like a brat."
"A cute brat." He struggled to lace his shoes but when he finally did he grabbed my hand but didn't move.
"Daddy, where's Zara?"
"She already went home, bud." He looked up at me and he looked like he was about to cry.
"What? But she didn't even see me, or kiss my cheek like she always does."
"She had to leave quickly-"
"No daddy she always says bye no matter what." He dried the tears from eyes and folded his arms.
"Fine, I don't care anyway." He tugged on my arm directing me to the door. I've never seen Eli act like this before.
Zara's Pov
Am I a bitch?
Yes, yes I am. But I mean what did he think I was going to do. I am an independent woman, and I don't need a man.
But why do I feel so bad. Adonis looked so hurt when I said "No." He didn't even turn to see me walk out.
I want to give him chance but love isn't even real. Well I don't believe in it, love is only temporary. My dad loved me once and in his last hours he hated me. I'm a messed up person and I come with flaws and I don't want Adonis to be held down with my issues.
I mean I'm a broken 20 year old who killed her own father. I have an eating disorder and I'm a bitch, a nasty one too.
I can't change who I am for him, he deserves better and I deserve nothing so I guess we're both out of luck.
I got home and ripped my dress off my body. I had to see Adonis tomorrow because I was nannying Eli.
Fuck
I didn't even say bye to Eli. My little man, I'll have to bribe him with something. I closed my eyes hoping slumber would take over until I heard a ding from my phone.
Adonis: I won't stop until you're mine love
hm
