The Vampire's Sun

Chapter 35

Arthit POV

"Kong and I broke up" I folded my arms on the table, laying my head on them. It's lunch time and we are between classes.

"You what?" Knott asked, I could hear the surprise in his voice. I didn't move, I didn't say anything. I didn't want to repeat those awful words.

"but...you're mates..." Perm says, shocked.

"Did you guys have a fight? Does this have anything to do with you crying in the library the other day? Did he reject you? Did you reject him?" Tutah asked throwing questions after questions at me. I didn't want to get into it, but I knew they wouldn't let it go if I didn't. I sighed sitting back up.

"You all know that for a month I stayed with Perm and Knott, because Kong asked for time after our big fight. I had said some very nasty things to him, and he needed time to think. The day in the library he called and told me he wanted to break up. It's my fault right? I'm the one who hurt him. I went start to the apartment to pack my things. He asked that I be out by the time he got back, and I wasn't. We talked face to face, and he said he wanted the breakup. That we moved to fast. That maybe we would get back together, but this is what he wanted for now." I took a deep breath trying not to cry. Just the thought of it breaks my heart. I hate thinking about it.

"Where have you been staying? How could he asked you to leave when you don't have a place to go?" Tutah asked.

"Why did you wait till now to tell us?" Knott said pulling out his phone. "You can stay with us again. I will let Tew know. We were planning on getting a new couch anyways. We say one that pulls out into a bed" Knott said. Perm nodding his head.

"I agree with Knott come stay with us."

"It's okay I don't need a place. Kong said that even though we were breaking up, he still loved me, and that he made arrangements to have me stay in one of the apartments in the building." I pulled out my keys showing them the fob. "It's a two bedroom, on the sixth floor." They are just looked at me as if I were crazy. "What?"

"How could you accept that? You are bound to run into him, isn't that going to hurt? Are you trying to punish yourself?" Tutah asked pissed on my behalf.

"It's will only be for a little while. I'm already trying to find a new place, close to campus. To answer your questions, I am actually trying to punish myself. It's my fault all this is happening anyways." I hold my hand up stopping them all from speaking. "I know, I shouldn't feel this way. It was how I was feeling at the time, but I can't stop myself from feeling this way." I took another deep breath exhaling slowly, before standing up. "I need the restroom. Then I will walk around for a bit, I will see you all in class." I say before picking up my stuff and leaving. I wanted to end the conversation, before I started sobbing.

I went to the restroom and splashed water on my face. I felt like crying. I mean why wouldn't I? I just lost my boyfriend. My mate. The person that I'm suppose to love and cherish the rest of my life. Last night had been tough. I tossed and turned unable to sleep. I can't sleep without him anymore. At three in the morning, I had finally given up and message him. I asked him for his favorite sweater. He never responded but five minutes later there was a knock on the apartment door and there he stood, sweater in hand. I told him I would give it back. We both knew that was a lie. I wouldn't be able to give it back. Kong said nothing, just patted my head and left.

"Get a grip Arthit." I said to myself. I splashed water on my face again before leaving. After checking the time, I had plenty of time to just walk around. I didn't want to go stay in engineering for fear of running into Kong. So instead, I decided to head towards sports and science. I don't know anyone there personally, so maybe I would be left alone.
