Forbidden Love [COMPLETED]

Chapter 21

A tongue is a weapon that can hurt you without making you bleed. Surgery is not required, but as a doctor, you probably wish you could do something about the dreaded feeling of your heart breaking when words cut it open, careless of how fragile each part of you is.

If you get shot, your pain is momentary and if everything goes well, you’ll soon be okay. The pain will be gone.

But the pain caused by words stays longer. Sometimes it doesn’t go away.

Becky opens her eyes slowly, feeling like someone is hitting her head with rocks, except no one was. The pounding headache makes her want to sink her face back into the pillow.

She stays like that for a while, then she suddenly feels cold. Her body is half covered by the sheets and she’s almost sure she’s naked.

Yes. She’s definitely naked.

She licks her dry lips and groans at the bad taste left in her mouth, wondering what the hell she drank the night before.

She opens her eyes and glances next to her, catching a hint of raven hair spread on the pillow and a very naked back.

Why does it look so familiar?

Becky gets up quietly, wrapping herself in the sheets and walks to the other side of the bed on her tiptoes. As she stops in her tracks and can finally see the person's face, she puts a hand on her mouth to keep herself from making any sudden noise.

“Oh my God. Oh God...oh God, oh God.” She quickly walks out of the room and silently rushes into Billy's room, who was not alone either.

“Oh my God. Oh my God. Billy? Billy! Please, wake up. Billy!” She keeps shaking him, who still doesn’t move for another full minute. Then he starts groaning in annoyance.

“Billy, why is my ex girlfriend naked in my bed?!” Her voice squeals.

“How would I know? You slept with her, not me.” He mumbles still half asleep.

Becky sighs in frustration and runs a hand through her hair.

“This can’t be happening.” She looks back at Billy and slaps his arm. He is now completely awake and facing the brunette, both of them looking at each other with a menacing face. “You’re the one that got me into this mess. Now you have to help me.”

“I don’t remember me getting into bed with the two of you. Oh wait-“ He widens his eyes and so does Becky. Then Billy bursts into laughter.

“You think this is funny?!” She slaps him again.

“Would you relax? So? You slept with your ex, no big deal, it happens.”

“I need to get out of here. I’ll...I’ll grab some of your clothes and I’ll sneak out early.” She starts digging in Billy's drawers for some clothes.

“This is ridiculous, Bec.”

“I broke up with her for a reason, okay? This was such a mistake. Why would I ever do that?! Okay, I was drunk, but why her?!”

She’s now fully dressed and looking at herself in the mirror. Her hair still looks a mess, but she can’t think about it right now. She has to get out of the house without walking near her room.

“Okay. I’m going now.”

Billy frowns and looks cautiously at the brunette who is already halfway the stairs and then out of the house.

“Becky, why would your drunk self pick your ex girlfriend out of everyone in that club?” Irin asks while tying up her shoes.
