Reunited in bed

CHAPTER 21: Hurt again

Marco's POV:

"I'm sorry to inform, Iza... But Aizen didn't want to tell you himself that he's left." No... That sounds as if he doesn't care... "I've come in place of Aizen to tell you he's left." That's a little better I guess but fuck! Why do I always get the hard part of situations to do?

I walked pacing back and front of Izadora's front door, at least I guess it's officially hers since Aizen has left. That asshole could've done this shit himself, but what kind of right hand man would I be if I didn't do as I was requested?

As I was trying to recite a good line to break the news to her, she walked right out. "Good timing" I told myself in sarcasm.

Izadora - "Oh, hey Marco"
Me - "Hey, Iza, aren't you to be at school?"
School? Seriously? I'm so bad at this I always wonder how I'm not as yet fired.
Izadora - "We're on break, remember?"
She chuckled.
Me  - "Oh, ha. Right..."
Izadora - "What brings you here?"
Fuck... Ok, just let it out.
Me - "Iza... Aizen has left..."

"NICE WORK ASSHOLE! BLURT IT OUT LIKE THE CUNT YOU ARE!" I cursed myself, because what the actual fuck did I just do... I could see her eyes starting to water because she knows what I meant by "left".

Izadora - "Ha... You're joking, he wouldn't just leave without telling me."
Me - "Iza... He did, he couldn't bring himself to tell you. I'm sorry..."

Izadora's POV:

I could feel my chest tightening as I let Marco's words started to soak into my mind. "He left without telling me..." "Did I do something wrong?" "Did he actually not love me and did all of it just to mock me?" My mind raced faster than a galloping horse.

My eyes got blurry and my head started to spin. I had no idea when I fell to the ground and ended up in Marco's lap as he was straight up on his knees holding me, trying to keep me awake.

That was the last thing I remembered before finally knocking out...

~2 hours later~

Marco - "...Yes she's doing well, boss. The doctor said it was just another panic attack."

The caller on the other end of the line could not be heard from where I was... Where was I? I looked around to see myself in my bedroom on the bed. Marco was on the other side of the room talking to someone he calls "boss". Aizen maybe?

I got up to my feet as the thought of him being on the phone came to mind. "I need to talk to him" I told myself, tears coming back to my already puffed eyes.

Me - "AIZ!"
Marco - "Izadora! You need to rest!

I almost fell to the ground, but Marco caught me on time.

Me - "I need to speak with him!"
Marco - "boss?"
Was all he said before handing me the phone, I assumed "boss" gave permission to give it to me. I grabbed the phone as soon as it was in my reach.
Me - "¿por qué Aizen? ¿por qué?" (Why?)
I tried to ask between my sobs. I never got a reply...
Me - "Was it all just another joke for your amusement? I thought you said you'd take care of it and you wouldn't have to go... Why didn't you just tell me you had to? Do you care so little about me?"

All my questions rushed out in one breath. I was full on crying at this point, and yet, I still received no response... I felt as if I was talking to a brick wall or a dead call line.

Aizen's POV:

This was what I have been trying to avoid... To hear her hurt because of me. I could not find myself to give her the answers she inquired. I couldn't bare to hear her a second more.

Me - "I'm sorry, my love..."
Was all the words that left my mouth before ending the call. I was already on my second flight to my final destination. This is out of my hands now.

Izadora's POV:

I bursted into tears with Marco still holding me. My panic attack slowly coming back. "What the fuck did I do wrong this time?" "Why does everyone leave?" "Do I even deserve to be happy?"

Marco - "He asked me to give you this."

Marco handed me a hand written letter from Aizen. I hesitated at first to open it, but what I read only broke my heart into more pieces

"Dear, my love.
      If you're reading this, I've already left and on my way to be away from you. I could not bring myself to tell you this in person. It breaks my heart to see that I'm the reason you cry when you do. I hope you know that this is all out of my hands. Father says that you're nothing but a major distraction and he demands I never see you again. But if you ask me, I'd rather much be distracted 24/7. On the other hand, Alessia is also moving, so think of it as a win. You'll no longer have anyone around to cause you hurt. I must've been your biggest one, and I truly apologize for all the scars I've caused you. Marco will be staying by your side to ensure your needs and wants are met. I love you Izadora Reyes, and I promise you, I will fight to be by your side once again, for nothing brings me more happiness than seeing your perfectly sculpted smile everyday. Bye for now, princess, until we meet again."

I held the paper that was now filled with tear drops close to my chest. "How could he...?" I still asked myself. As I sat there in Marco's arms still crying, "Is this the end?" "Is this my fate?" "Or was it all just a coincidence?"

AUTHOR'S NOTE:
Hey beautiful!
I don't think this was what I was planning to write in my head... But wow, is this really her fate?
What do you think? :( </3
