I wish you loved me in the ways I did.
I didn't want someone else, not him, not her.
You
So why couldn't that happen? Why couldn't you love me?
Was I really that bad?
Was it that easy to let go of what we had?
I don't know..and that's the problem.

*Wynter's Pov!*
Artemis's eyes tell a different story today. Anger, guilt, resentment. But I can't bother looking at them one more second once his eyes see our hands. Jason then smiles at Artemis. "Hey man!" He exclaims. Artemis puts on a fake smile, going right back to staring at our hands. I slowly let go of Jason, walking towards a food stand.
"Want pizza?" I ask, everyone beams in excitement. "Hell yeah!" Elias screams, running with Marley towards it. There are so cute, it's fucking adorable. I watch them silently as they pick out all of the options. We eventually go for a regular pepperoni pizza as Artemis stands off to the side. No matter where he is though, I feel his eyes grilling the back of me.
I turn around, seeing Kenna run up to us. "Hey guys! This is my boyfriend!" I then see a guy behind her, waving shyly. "I'm Leo, it's nice to meet you." Theo, his name is Theo isn't it Wynter?Shut up, stop, focus on something else. I look over to Elias and Darren, who are walking up to him. "Kenna has shown us pictures and talked about you all the time, trust me no need to introduce yourself." I can't help but laugh at Elias's comment.
Darren then sticks out his hand from behind Elias. "Happy to put a face to a name." He laughs as Leo meets his hand, shaking it gently. It's quiet, just awkward introductions and awkward eyes that stare at me secretly. I roll my eyes and then close them. This is really starting to annoy me, he tells me to move on but once I do his eyes won't leave me at all.
I would just tell him to fuck off, he never cared for you anyways, Neither does Jason. Stop, get out of my head, that isn't true. I open my eyes again, taking in everyone talking. See, this is fine. Everything is just fine. I feel someone tap my shoulder, I turn to see Jason. "Want one?" He asks, holding out a pizza. I shake my head, I don't have the stomach to eat anything right now. He sets it down on a table, everyone beginning to eat.
I look at Artemis, he isn't eating anything either. But i choose to keep my eyes on the wall, I don't want to make any more eye contact today, especially with him. So I look over to Jason instead, his arm immediately slinging around me, pulling me to his side. I smile at the gesture as he tucks my hair back. "Want to roam around?" He smirks, I don't want to be around Artemis right now. So that is the only reason why I say.
"Yes, let's do it." He grins at my response, taking my hand and standing up. The group looks up at us, confused. "Were going to look around, see you in thirty." He winks at Artemis. Okay, why the hell did he do that? And why is Artemis fuming even more by the time we left? I just tried to shrug it off, letting Jason lead me through the fair.
Fairs are amazing, I smiled at all the kids, running around, laughing, and playing. Sometimes, I wish I were a kid again. Back when Theo and I went to the fair, we would sneak away from mom and dad. We would run to all the best rides and get the best food. He loved the cotton candy, always getting so much since we only went once a year.
