Peace In The Noise

Caught

It was September, me and Marko had been together for a few months now with realtively few issues. Unfortunately, Marko was going away for a few days to play some gigs back in Croatia and I was not looking forward to it at all. Was I a bit scared because of what happened last time? Probably. Was it because I had gotten used to seeing him everyday? Honestly, probably again. ''Baby, I'll be two days maximum, and we can still call, it's not like there's a time difference.'' I sighed as he zipped up his suitcase. ''I don't want you to go, what if you find someone better over there in two days and move home?'' Marko laughed and wrapped his arms around me. ''As if, you're the only one for me darling, you should know that.'' I smiled as he kissed my forehead. On the upside, my sister was finally coming back from her travels and she was bringing my brother to stay with us. Downside? My brother's best friend was Erik, so I just had to pray that they were gone before Marko got back. Marko had moved in with me permanently and so technically it was his house too now so god knows what he'd do if he found Erik in his living room, probably attempt to fight him as he usually does.

''I gotta get going sweetheart, here.'' He said, passing me the hoodie he'd just been wearing. ''There should be a spare bottle of my cologne on my side of the drawer if you wanna spray anything with it, love.'' I smiled, this man was such a green flag. ''Text me when you land?'' I said as I helped him take his suitcase downstairs and he nodded as we got to the bottom. ''Of course hun, I love you so much baby.'' He said as he pulled me in for one last hug. ''I love you too Marko.'' My voice trailed off as I held back tears and he kissed my cheek. ''It's going to be okay dragi, I promise.'' I sniffled and he kissed me and smiled softly at me as he left. He closed the door behind him and I sat on the sofa and cuddled his hoodie until everyone else arrived.

It was the night before Marko was due to be home, in fact he could be home any second as I hadn't heard of off him since this afternoon when he was at the airport. Me and the group were playing truth or dare with drink. ''Come on Eva! You gotta answer the question! When was the last time you had a one night stand?'' Ella asked. I hadn't actually told her or Oliver I had a boyfriend, there was only Erik who knew and he swore to keep it a secret. ''I dunno....'' Ella sighed and smirked. ''Alright then, when was the last time you fucked someone?'' I groaned and brought a pillow to my face as the group laughed. ''Months ago! Like, nearly a year ago!'' I lied, I couldn't tell them I'd done it 2 days ago in the bed Ella and Oliver were sat on could I? My sister scoffed, she didn't believe me. ''You're lying!!'' She said playfully and I rolled my eyes. '''Next question please.'' I said and something caught my sister's eyes and she smirked at me. ''Who's is that cologne then Ev?'' I shrugged. ''It's mine, Ev let me keep it here after that night out and I forgot to get it back.'' Erik lied. Erik lied, to protect Marko. It was, odd? I nodded in agreement however.

''You know what, if that's not some mystery man's and definitely Erik's, you wouldn't mind kissing him for a bet would you?'' My eyes widened, whilst I wasn't ready to tell them me and Marko were together yet, I didn't know if I could kiss Erik. Then again, it's not like it would mean anything right? ''Lemme go outside and think about it.'' I said, dragging Erik with me and my sister squealed excitedly. I closed the door behind us. ''Eva, don't do this, I know I like you but think about Marko, it's not fair.'' I sighed. ''My sister doesn't like Marko after what he did last time he went to Croatia, what else am I meant to do?'' I said and he ran his hand through his hair, he didn't look half as good as Marko did when he did it. ''I'll do it for two seconds?'' He offered and I sighed, was I really about to do this? I didn't mean anything by it and the thought made me feel sick, but the thought of there being tension between my sister and Marko also made me feel sick. ''Fine. Two seconds, no more.'' He nodded and we went back into the room and left the door behind of us open. ''So?'' My sister asked and I nodded. ''I'll do it, just to prove a point.'' I said and me and Erik turned to face each other and leaned in. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath and kissed him in the most lifeless way possible and I felt so incredibly sick. It lasted two seconds like we agreed, and I sighed with relief but my brother and sister were staring behind of me with shocked expressions. I slowly turned around and my heart was in my mouth. ''Koji kurac on radi u mojoj kući i zašto ga ljubiš?'' Erik turned after that. ''Huh?'' He asked and I put my head in my hands.

''What the fuck are you doing in my house, and why the fuck are you kissing my girlfriend?''
