Taylor's POV
I walked into the house, sighing as I pulled of my heels. It was exhausting, and I wanted nothing more than to snuggle into Travis' side, to hold him as I slept.
Something was off, though. He wasn't in the living room, wasn't anywhere I could see. Maybe he's in the room. He's probably just tired. I convinced myself that was it. I went straight to the bedroom opening the door while it creaked softly.
I stopped in my tracks the moment I saw the scene in front of my eyes. Travis in bed, but there was something else. Someone else. "Travis?" I said, voice quivering slightly.
He damn near jumped, looking at me. I watched the panic set in. "T-Tay!" He scrambled to find the words, immediately getting out of bed.
The girl also proceeded to get up, immediately scrambling to leave. She looked like she could be no older than 27.
I crossed my arms across my chest. "Explain." I demanded, any sliver of sadness or love gone, my voice hardened.
"Tay-" He tries, but I'm done with his bullshit.
"Actually, no, you know what? I hope you burn in hell. Because I tried. I actually tried with you. I gave you everything, you became my everything." I shook my head in disbelief. "But you. you. You know, I thought you might work. I thought you would be the one. I guess I'm left being the stupid one again, though, right?"
"Taylor, please." He pleaded.
"No." Anger coursed through my veins. "I should've known better than letting you in at my best. Get out of my house."
"Tay-"
"Out!" I screamed.
He lowered his head, accepting defeat. He nodded. "I understand." His voice was low as he gathered his things and walked out.
The moment he left, my heart shattered. The adrenaline died down, and tears leaked from my eyes. I sat on the ground, propped up against the couch, head in my hands.
I was lost.
For so long, I had been able to make it work. Things were fine. He was my rock, but now he was gone, and my support went with it.
I broke down. Nothing mattered anymore. All I knew for 3 hours were tears amd pain.
I remembered every little moment recently, and realised how obvious this was.
The time when he said he was going to be late after practice but was clearly at a party or bar.
The time I said I love you to him, but he just looked uncomfortable and kept silent.
Shit. Shit. Shit.
I felt like an idiot. The whole thing was so damn obvious. It was my fault again, right?
Always my fault. Always the fool for love. I sat and stared straight at the ceiling. "Huh." I said, wiping away the last tear.
