date me?

24. look who's back.

Erela's POV :

Tonight we have a little birthday party of one of my friends, Randall. It'll be just a little hangout type get-together party.
Zion is also invited in there so we're going together.

I'm getting dressed and I'm wearing a
long dark blue dress and pairing it with some dark blue heels. My hair is up in a half up half down situation with two strands out in the front and I'm wearing light jewellery and light makeup as well.

Zion will be picking me up and we'll get there together.

I'm right now here in the party, I've already met Randall and wished him for his birthday, I also bought him a gift, sneakers.

"When will we get out of here?" I ask him, looking at everyone dancing and singing and just partying their hearts out.

"Whenever you want, baby. You want to go home now?" He asks, looking at me.

"No, no we'll stay a lil longer." I say as he nods.

That's when I see Lance.
Oh, he's back.
He's wearing a black shirt and a blue jeans and black Nike, his hair is fluffy as always he's also wearing a watch.
His biceps are popping and he's looking here and there until he sees me.

He walks towards me and says "Hi rilly."

"Oh hey. You're back." I say.

Zion puts his hand on my waist.
I'm not blushing.

"Hey." Zion greets lance, with a kind of smile, I'm not familiar with.
Fake?

"Hello Zio, been a while." He greets back.

"Meet my girlfriend." Zion says.

But he already knows me.
What?

"Girlfriend? You guys are together?" He asks with a shocked yet upset and wronged look on his face

"Yup." I say.

"Well, what a surprise! Great to hear that news just after I'm back." He says with a fake smile as well.

"See you around." He adds and Zion nods as he walks away.

"Why did you say that? He knows me before our relationship started." I say.

"Well, did he know that we were together?" Zion asks.

I shake my head, still not getting the point.

"Exactly, baby." Zion says.

We were about to leave as it's already 10 in the night and it's like it's my first time being out at this time but it's my first time being out in this hour in a while.
But yeah, I did tell my mum that I'll be back a lot later.
Didn't specify the time though.

"Are you both leaving?" Lance asks, as he stands infront of us, blocking our way.

This arrogant arsehole.

"Yes." Zion answers.

"May I have this dance before you leave?" He asks me as he offers me his hand.

I look at Zion for approval.
It's not that, he's controlling but if I have a boyfriend then why would I dance with another man right?

Zion wraps his hand around my waist and comes closer to me and whispers in my ear "If you're okay with it."

As he unwraps his arm from my waist and walks away.

Lance wraps his hands around waist as I take a hold of his shoulder with one hand and his hand with my other.

We slowly walk towards the middle of the room.

Suddenly the music which was rap hip-hop type changed to instrumental love songs.
The heck?

"You didn't tell me that you were with him?" Lance asks, his eyes staring into my soul.

"I thought it would hurt you." I say, being honest.

"It did." He says.

"But atleast if I knew you were together here then I would've never come here." He adds.

"I'm sorry." I say, not knowing what else to say, because me and him dancing together despite me having a boyfriend just doesn't feel right and thank God, this is a little party with just close friends or else there would have been rumors.

"You hurt me, rilly." He says, his eyes looking in me, so sad.

"I didn't mean to." I say, looking away.

"It still did." He says.

"It breaks my heart to know you don't feel the same for me or you don't feel anything at all for me, not even a bit, not even close. It's breaks my heart, my soul and my mind. It leaves me shattered and demolished." He adds.

I look at him.

"Tell me Rilly, why did you make me feel loved and filled me with hope, when at the end you chose to leave me?" He adds again, his eyes tearing up now.

My eyes widen at this sight.

"Even if I see you again, I'll never see you again." He says.

"Lance." I say, not knowing what to say after that.

"In all world there is no heart for me like yours and in all world there is no love for you like mine." He says.

"I'll still be here though, waiting for you." He says with a sight smile and spins me around as he walks away.

Lance's POV :

She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him. She's with him.
With him and not me.
With him and not me.
With him and not me.
Why not me?
Why him and not me?

Is this how it feels when someone breaks your heart?
I feel so empty or was I always like this?
My heart is shattered and it fell,
And I didn't have any energy to pick it up again.
Because if not her then no-one else,
Because nobody can ever fill my mind and fix my heart again.
Why did you love me and fill me with hope?
If at the end you chose to leave me?

I pick up my phone and text my dad.
And then get on my bike and ride away.
Away from here.
For now.
