Better life with you

Chapter 21

Helena's POV:
Oh god, my head ache so bad. I slowly open my eyes but when I see a lot of light I immediately close them again. I'll grab the cell.
"God, what did I do to deserve this." I whisper to myself. well, I have to get up, I try to touch Y/n, but I can't feel her. Suddenly, I hear the door open and smell the smell of fried food from the kitchen. Well, it would be another time, not today when I have a hangover.
"Good morning." I hear a man's voice. I hear a man's voice what the fuck, I open my eyes and see my ex, my ex and his bedroom, myself in my ex's bedroom. I look around the room and lift the duvet to check myself. I'm dressed, luckily, in a nightgown that I couldn't find for a long time, but I'm dressed.
"What the fuck am I doing here Rye?" I panic again and cover my head.
"Well, yesterday I finally got up the courage to take the things you forgot here, I knew you would be in the theater, so I there, but when you finally left, you couldn't even walk properly, I took you here and after a wonderful 20-minute car ride in to which you scolded me for ruining your life and that I was an idiot, I got you into bed, where you immediately fell asleep."
He explained.
"And did we...?" I took care timidly. "You know what I mean."
"Yes, we did." I look at him in disbelief.
"We had sex half a year ago" he then says and laughs a little, I just shake my head.
"That wasn't funny." I tell him exasperatedly.
"Come on, what would happen? We've already slept together and I don't know that we're both in a relationship." I curse him with look
"You don't have to know everything about my life. It's enough that I slept here."
"I made you some tea, and some eggs if you'd like some." he digresses from the topic to avoid drama.
"Thank you," I whisper weakly and reach for the tea. Oh wait, where is Y/n if I'm here? I quickly pick up my cell phone and see 8 missed calls and messages from her. Fuck, I screwed up, again.
"Rye? Would you be so kind as to give me a ride somewhere quick?" I asked him with hope in my eyes.
"Of course, just get dressed and I'll wait for you downstairs."
"Thank you very much."
I got dressed and took my pajamas with me, Rye was already waiting for me at the front door. "Would you like some food?"
"No thank you, let's go" I answered him and we went to the car, got in and he started the car.
"So where will it go?" he asked and I gave him the address of Kate's house. I tried to call Y/n but she doesn't pick up.
"Problems?" Rye asked, probably to break the awkward silence between us.
"Actually, I don't even know, but I guess so," I answered truthfully. "Problems in love?"
"I don't want to discuss it, it's a secret," I whisper the last part and smile.
"What about you and love, do you have anyone?" I ask him back and he turns away.
"Well, there was such a woman, I cared about her a lot and our relationship was wonderful, I can't get over our breakup, I don't even know why we it did haplend, but I know that I still love her and I would do anything for her." he says sadly and looks at me with tears in his eyes. "Well, that woman had to make this decision because she understood that she doesn't feel that much love for you anymore and she understood that you would be better off without her. But she would definitely like you to know that she loved you very much and never lied to you about her feelings." I told him and the car stopped in front of the house "Well thank you." I got out of the car and started walking towards the gate
"Helena wait." I turn around and see Rye walking quickly towards me, pulling me close and kissing me.

Y/n POV:

My eyes are swollen from crying. Right now I'm standing by the window and watching Helena kiss someone, Rye, her ex, nice of her to put in the work to come and demonstrate it to me live. I leave the window and sit on the bed, the door key in the drawer in case she wants to get in here. Fortunately, only me and Kate are at home, who was preparing to go to the store, so with a little bit of luck she has already left and Helena will have to give it up. I wait a few minutes and hear a knock on the door,
"Honey? can you please open for me?" Damn, it's Helena, and her voice makes me cringe at every organ in my body. Tears start to fall from my eyes again and I sit on the bed but I don't answer her.
"Baby please."
she whispers and tries to gently open the door, but it's impossible because it's locked.
"Come on love let's talk." she says and sounds like she's going to cry. Why should she cry? she has no right to cry.
“Honey, please open. She speaks again and fidgets with the doorknob
"My love, I love you more than anything in the world, please at least say something so I know you're okay." I want to say something but some force stops me.
"Honey, please" she is now crying too and moving the stick like crazy.
"My love, I'm worried about you, please open up, say something, give a sign that you're alive and that you're okay." there was silence for a while and I took the opportunity to open my mouth.
"I fucking hate you."
