⁂⁂⁂
Present Day.
Xavier looks at me like he can't believe who he is seeing.
Fear and guilt replaces the shock in his eyes almost immediately. I can sense everyone's confused and lost look directed at me.
"Skylar?" Weston calls out softly as he walks towards my rigid form.
That horrible day plays in my head, bringing unwanted tears to my eyes.
Weston gets to me, lifting my chin up to look at him.
"What's wrong?" He ask softly.
I look away from my confused, worried looking man's face to the one who is still staring at me like a ghost.
"Do you know him?" I couldn't answer even if I wanted to.
But something feels different. I don't feel hurt. Only an incredible amount of anger.
"H-How...Skylar...." Xavier is still stunned, but anger only fills me.
"What the hell is going on here?" Weston yells in utter confusion. I heard the others mumbling words amongst themselves, but it all easily fades from my ears.
Even the physical change Xavier now has, didn't stop me from seeing the disgust in him.
He is way broader now with bigger muscles. His long dark hair is packed into a bun and he still has his signature black and black outfit going on.
Every pain I felt from that day, to the days I spent in rehab, in therapy, in my bathroom crying pathetically....has all turned into rage.
My breathing hitched up, showing the anger that is pumping through my veins.
"I'm sorry Skylar." Xavier starts out of nowhere.
"I'm so fucking sorry I left you that day. I have never forgiven myself." My fist balls and I wipe the tears that rolled down my cheeks.
"I'm so deeply sorry Sky--" I mentally mute his stupid, meaningless words.
I remembered when I told myself I was a badass, but then I was dumb. Oblivious to everything that was happening around me.
But not anymore. I'm not dumb.
I'm a fucking BADASS!
Xavier's mouth is still moving with words I don't give two fucks on. I let my legs lead me towards him.
"Skylar?" Weston calls from behind me, but I ignore him. Xavier saw the burning fury in my eyes as I storm to him.
"Skylar hold on—" I don't need to think twice before lifting my hand, my fist harshly collides together with his jaw. Pain shoots through my hand, but my anger numbs it.
