Only Time Will Tell

another love

"And I'd sing a song, that'd be just ours
But I sang 'em all to another heart
And I wanna cry, I wanna learn to love
But all my tears have been used up"

I hated this. After what Y/n told me last night, my heart felt like it was pulled out of my chest and shattered into a million pieces. The guilt was eating me alive, knowing I make her feel like that.

I had texted her many times today, but no answer. I couldn't blame her, I deserved this. I played with her feelings and she gave me so many chances and every single time, I broke her heart. The world just felt completely dull.

"Elizabeth?" I hear Robbie call me, making his way down the steps.

I don't say anything, quickly wiping away the tears that escaped from my eyes. "Robbie."

"why was she here?" He asks with anger in his voice.

"Wh-what are you talking about Robbie? Who?"

"Y/n. I told you, I wouldn't do anything to her if she stayed away."

"She wasn't."

"Fuck Lizzie, I saw her pulling off when I came back."

"That was Aubrey."

"Sure." He says, making his way closer to me. "Aubrey doesn't make you cry like that." he says with a smirk.

"Fuck you." I snap back, tired of the same cycle every day.

"Don't talk to me like that."

"NO. IM TIRED OF THIS SHIT ROBBIE! YOU COMPLAIN AND ACCUSE ME OF CHEATING AND GO OUT AND PUBLICLY DO IT WITH NO SHAME?"

"I lov-"

Cutting him off, "NO. YOU DONT. YOU- YOU LOVE THE IDEA OF ME."  IM DONE."

All Robbie did was stare. "I'm done."

"The wedding is in 3 weeks, your not done."

Pointing a finger at him, "WE'RE OVER, I WANT YOU OUT."

I couldn't put up with it anymore. The threats, manipulation, all becoming too much for me. Choking on a sob, I rushed backupstairs. I needed to call my sisters.

"Hey mk.." I say, struggling to properly talk due to the constant tears running out my eyes.

"LIZZIE, WHAT HAPPENED?"

"Is-is Ashley there?"

"Yeah, she's right here. Are you gonna tell us what happened?"

"I did it.. I-..I broke up with Robbie. He-"

"Wow Lizzie, that's.. that's big."

"I'm scared."

"What, why?"

"Robbie..He did something and I-I cant-" I was a stuttering mess, my breathing becoming irregular.
