Killing my bestfriend's dad

chapter 49

Damien's pov

I couldn't wait for my date with Simone any longer. I was missing her more the time passed by.

I decided to pass by her house maybe we could hang out for a while then I could take her on that date and we could go to my place after that for a much desired dessert.

I couldn't even deny it, I was falling for her hard. Everything about her was just so refreshing and perfect.

I remember her telling me that her ex cheated on her and I really wanted to find this guy and kill him once and for all.

My thoughts were interrupted when I made it to her apartment. I got to her door and knocked but there was no answer. I knocked again and nothing.

That was strange she mentioned staying home till later before when I called her so what was the meaning of this.

I pulled out my phone and tried to call her maybe she was in the shower or asleep?

She didn't pick up and I called her again and again and again.

Fuck.

I started to pace around and then dramatically banged at her door. When she finally threw the door open looking frightened, I jumped in throwing my arms around her.

"Thank God you're okay I was so worried." I said while pulling her out of my grasp.

"Why were you worried?" I noticed that look on her face like she was scared, frightened almost like she had seen a ghost. She was also slightly shaking and looked pale. What the hell happened?

"Baby are you okay?" I asked her while lowering my hands to her face to observe her more clearly.

She gently placed hers over mine and pulled them off her face.

"Look, I need to go like right now. I think we need to reschedule our date." She said while nervously playing with the strings of her hoodie.

Like fuck we are.

"Simonè what's wrong? Tell me what happened. I'll fix it." I tell her while trying to hold her again but she steps back and her eyes tear up.

"I'm sorry. I'll call you. I really need to do something. " she said before pushing me out and slamming the door.

My heart shuttered into a thousand little pieces seeing her this way but if she thought I was going to let this go then she was wrong.

Simone's pov

I wasn't ready to see him not to mention regaining consciousness to someone hysterically banging at your door is not exactly the best feeling.

I needed to see him now. I had to. This was all my fault.

I grabbed my purse and threw my hair in a mesyy bun before grabbing the paper and stuffing it in my bag with the box in my hands while making for the door.

I drove like a mad person to Adrian's place and gave the door knocks similar to those Damien had thrown on mine.

He opened it looking very confused and very shirtless.

I leaned towards him and cried into his chest. He froze for a second in confusion.

"Are these tears of joy?" He asked.

Oh Adrian.

"Adrian- I " at this point I was an emotional mess and let's just say his chest was pretty wet.

"What's wrong?" He asked me while pulling me away and gently wiping my tears.

"Is Ashley in there?" I asked.

"No she left why?" He asked.

"We need to talk. "I told him and he nodded while giving me way to get in.

"Now can you tell me what's wrong?" He asked following me to his couch.

"This." I said as I gave him the piece of paper.

He read over it and his eyes widened. I couldn't take it. I burst into more tears and he came over to me and wrapped his hands perfectly around me.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to get you in this mess. I can't let this happen to you. I won't. Adrian I'm so sorry. I-"

He cut me off by kissing my forehead and patting my hair.

"Don't worry about this I'll take care of it."

"Adrian this isn't just nothing. This is your life at risk too." I said to him while wiping my face with the back of my sweater.

"Then we are going to solve this together. I'll make some calls. We got this. Don't worry and in the mean time you shouldn't stay in your place. It's not safe for you."

"Me? You're the one who is in trouble." I said to him.

"Yeah but I can take care of myself, you on the other hand have a death threat."

"Do I need to remind you that I'm the one who killed someone?" I asked him in a sassy way.

He laughed whole heartedly and I joined him on the laughter then he hugged me once more before suggesting that we watch a movie to ease down things.

It was far beyond dark outside about 10:00p.m when I decided to go back to my place.

I reached my floor and almost jumped when I saw Damien standing at my door.

"Fuck you almost scared me." I said to him while opening the door and putting down my purse on a table.

"You missed our date and didn't return my calls." He said while following behind me and standing on the opposite side of the room leaning against the wall to look outside the window far away from me.

That was strange why was he being distant.

"Shit sorry I just got caught up in some things."

"What things?" He asked coldly.

"Nothing serious and I'm sorry we can go out another day." I say while stepping closer to him.

"What things Simonè?" He repeated.

"Damien I-"

"Where were you?" He asked while turning to face me and that's when I noticed the anger on his face.

"Is something wrong? I-"

"Where were you Simone it's not hard to answer the fucking question."

"I was with my uh girl she just had a pretty bad breakup."

He laughed in a chilling tone. "Bullshit. I saw you." He was smiling but I could tell he was mad.

"Were you following me?" I asked while crossing my arms across my chest.

He had absolutely no right to start meddling in my business.

"Why did you lie to me? Who was that? Is there something going on between you two? Did you have sex with him, Simone? Because I can't wrap my head around what the fuck happened. "

"Oh my God Damien be for real." I sighed while heading to the kitchen to get some water.

I really couldn't deal with this now.

"You want real, I'll give you real. " without warning he headed for the door before I could register what was going on he was opening it and walking out leaving the room with the resounding slam.
