Chapter Seventeen: Move

"What's your problem?!" Hyunjin's fingers wrapped tightly around my delicate wrist, grasping as tightly as he knew he could without hurting me. He had stopped my hand mid air as it rushed angrily towards his face.

"YOU!" I screamed at him. Muttering flew around the corridor as everyone in school watched this argument unfold. I hadn't wanted to do this.

I didn't want any of it. I wanted my old life back. I wrenched my arm free of him. Daggers flew as I glared angrily at him.

"Can we talk? Please?" Felix was right behind him, looking betrayed as my anger for them both rose wildly out of control until my blood was practically boiling. Seeing them both only made it worse.

"What is there to talk about?" I sneered, watching Felix's gorgeous eyes fill with the bitter tears of sadness. I knew this was hurting him the most. He felt more deeply than Hyunjin.

"Us." He whispered. I tutted and shook my head, slowly relaxing my shoulders and unleashing my jaw. I stepped past Hyunjin and carefully placed a hand on Felix's damp cheek. I half smiled and my thumb gently wiped away a tear from his cheek. This would be the last act of kindness he would receive from me.

"There is no us." I span on my heels and quickly rushed down the silent hall. Everyone in school had just witnessed my break up with them. There was no way anyone would think anything was going on between us now.

I tore down the hallways, people parting as I walked through like I was some kind of celebrity.

"Y/N!" I couldn't bring myself to look back. If I did, I would give in. What happened between us had gone too far, it had gotten out of hand. I thought back to the conversation we had shared. It didn't make sense:

"Did you sleep OK?" Felix's half open eyes were perfect as the sun danced across his freckled cheeks, illuminating him like the fine sculpture he was.

"Too well I think. You?" I asked as I moved some of his hair from his face. He nodded and smiled softly, warmly, and lovingly at me.

"What's gonna happen now?" The thought was meant to stay in my head, it didn't."

"Nothing."

I shook it off. This wasn't what I wanted to think about right now. How could one word do so much damage? And of course now he wanted to revoke it. Because he wanted his toy back.

But I'm not a toy. I'm a human being who is entitled to feel, entitled to be angry, and entitled to be hurt more than I ever knew it was capable to be hurt.

"What do I do?" I sat in the stall as tears poured down my cheeks and dripped noisily onto the floor.

"Y/N?" Felix had been just as shocked at this as I had. But I couldn't risk it. I knew they came as a pair. I knew I couldn't have one.

Especially not after I had had them both.

"Sorry, Y/N isn't available. Leave a message and I won't get back to you." I mumbled. The door slowly creaked open, and he was hugging himself with tears in his delicate eyes.

"There you are." He crouched in front of me, and took my tear soaked hands in his own, gently running his thumbs over the back of my hand.

"I can't."

"You know he didn't mean it..."

"There you go again. Making excuses for him. This is why neither of you are good for me!" I wrenched my hands from his.
