Peace In The Noise

Tabloid

I awoke to the sun filtering through the blinds that I forgot to close last night. I looked at the time on the clock on the wall, 6am. I decided to try to go back to sleep but it was no use, I glanced next to me where Marko was still fast asleep. It's alright for some I suppose. I finally decided to get up and go and make some breakfast. I sighed and stretched before going downstairs. I got everything ready to make some pancakes, they were my favourite. In the middle of making them, Marko came running down the stairs so quick I'm surprised he didn't fall down them. He ran past me and into the laundry room. ''Well, good morning to you too?'' I said sarcastically and he ran back with some clothes. ''Sorry darling, good morning!'' He shouted as he ran back up the stairs and I rolled my eyes playfully. I didn't think much of it at the time, but my phone was buzzing an awful lot, and most of the notifications were from my sister. Odd.

I was startled by Marko running back down the stairs, but this time he was on the phone to someone. ''Mario chill out man, I'm on my way.'' He said before hanging up. ''I'm really sorry Ev, I forgot my manager needed to see me and I gotta go now. I'll be back soon, I love you!'' He said and he came over and kissed my cheek before going to get his car keys and walking out. I stood there, not really knowing what to do with myself. I finished making my pancakes and sat down to eat them and my phone was still going crazy so I decided to finally look at it at and I felt the colour drain out of my face and I felt sick.

Eurovision 2024 runner up Baby Lasagna rumoured to be having an affair, girlfriend claims.

My heart stopped, I was so confused. I certainly hadn't said anything? So who was this 'girlfriend?' Suddenly, my phone began ringing. It was my sister. I decided to answer. ''Ella?'' I asked and I was immediently greeted with a, ''Eva I swear to god what has this idiot done now? Why have you went to the press?!'' Shouting down the phone, effective. ''Ella calm down, I haven't said shit.'' I replied, a lot calmer than my sister. ''I'm coming round now to give that bastard a piece of my mind!'' I shook my head, talk about forgive and forget. ''Ella, two things. One, he hasn't done shit to me. Two, you're calling him a bastard yet forgetting I kissed Erik just a month ago? Really Ella?'' I said and she hung up, she was definitely already on her way here. Good luck with that Ella, the man ain't even here.

After about an hour, both Marko and Ella burst through the door arguing and I took the pillow from the sofa I was laying on and held it gently onto my face. My best guess is they met in the driveway and it escalated from there. ''I told you if you hurt my sister I'd get you!'' Ella screamed. It was genuinely like watching an episode of a drama where the couple gets into a massive fight and threw plates at each other. ''I haven't done shit Ella, you don't know the full story.'' Marko replied, a lot more calmer. That seems to be a theme. ''Guys willl you calm down?'' I asked and Marko sat next to me and Ella sat on the sofa opposite. Marko put his arm around me and Ella scoffed. ''Ella, will you listen to me? Neither me or Eva has done anything alright? This is a big misunderstanding.'' Ella rolled her eyes. ''Again Ella, are you forgetting what I did a month ago?'' I reiterated and she shook her head. ''That was one kiss, not a whole ass affair!'' I groaned and put my head in my hands and Marko rubbed my back. ''Ella, Eva hasn't said anything, I don't have any other girlfriends. Stop.'' I looked up and Ella rolled her eyes.

''You really believe that?''  Ella asked and that was it. I lost it. ''Oh will you just shut the fuck up? Everything has to be drama with you, you can't stand that me and Marko have actually rebuilt our relationship. Come to think of it, you already had ideas I was with someone yet still bet me to kiss Erik and you still had some idea I was a people pleaser so you knew I'd do it. You can't stand that you can't keep a relationship for more than a week because you push people away.'' I snapped and she scowled at me. I turned to Marko. ''I don't care if she's there or not, tell me what's going on.'' He sighed and looked at Ella, who was patiently waiting, then back at me. ''My ex, Lucija. She seen that photo I posted of us on Instagram and she must've got jealous and called up the press pretending that we were still together and that I was having an affair with you, but of course everyone thinks that you're the one who made the accusations and that Lucija is the one I'm having an affair with, but I'm not either way.'' Ella scowled at the both of us.

''You choose to believe that then.'' Ella said before storming out. Why was she so upset?...
