I saw her retreating figure and followed her but the elevators closed before I could reach her. I punched the controls in frustration.

"Fuck!" I shouted, running towards the emergency exit when Sofia caught my arm but I shook it off with a glare.

"Don't follow her Nicholas, you'll only lead that whore on." She rolled her eyes and I stepped up to her.

"I warned you, not once, not twice, but three times." I growled, her eyes getting wider as I neared her, "You fucking liar! When the fuck did we magically get engaged?"

"We are engaged!" She yelled and I whipped my gun out at her.

"For a month, six years ago," I corrected furiously, "And only because you bastard of a father talked me into it when my father had just died."

"Three fucking times and you still ran your useless fucking mouth and now the woman I lo—" I stopped, clenching my fists shut as my jaw clenched tightly.

"She's a million times better than all of you combined. Get the fuck out before I change my mind about letting you leave alive." I hissed at her and she took a step back in fear and I ran down the stairs, not waiting for a reaction.

But I was too late, and suddenly, it felt like my world was ending.

It had been a few months now, and I hadn't seen her. Nowhere. I couldn't look for her. I know she told me to stay away from her, to let her go, but fuck if I would. I stayed away, but I respected her wish.

I gave her space and time and now, I couldn't take it anymore, so I had Jake find out where she went a few days ago.

It's been long enough already.

I missed her comments, her sass, her blush, her comforting scent and her soft lips. I was going crazy.

Every night I would drink until I was absolutely shit faced and worked non stop in the day to keep my mind off of her.

I was going to prove her wrong, because she was the only one for me. I wasn't a man whore and didn't use girls. That wasn't me, and how I wish she would have believed me.

But every time I closed my eyes, her face was all I could see and the whole scene of her leaving me would replay in my head over and over again. I was frustrated to the point I started breaking random things.
