anon request! in which you think colby is cheating
you've noticed that colby's been on his phone a lot lately. he usually replies to emails and stuff on his laptop so he's definitely texting somebody. you don't think much of it at first since it's probably work stuff.
he's actually been out a lot recently and when you asked about it, he brushed it off with vague excusses.
tonight was no different. colby told you he was gonna film a video with sam. you assumed it was something for xplr club so you didn't ask any questions and he just head out. but something about it didn't seem right to you
usually, colby tells you where he's going and when he'll be back but by 9:30 you've tried calling him but gotten nothing and you were getting worried.
you start to think of places he could've gone but nothing adds up. he's not at the bar because he left the house in sweatpants. he's not at sam's because kats there and said she's alone waiting for sam. and he's definitely not filming because he would've been done hours ago
you sit on the couch and suddenly you remember a message you saw on his phone the other day. you didn't see what it said you just saw a message from someone named morgan. back then, you didnt think much of it because you thought it was an old friend or even a team member but now thoughts came through your head. ones you hope aren't for real. is colby cheating? that would explain why he's always on his phone and why he isn't home yet. god this can't be. colby is not the type of guy to cheat, this whole situation is sus. he's so mysterious
by the time colby got home, your blood was boiling. you were sitting on the couch, arms crossed, staring at the front door, the moment it clicked open you were on your feet.
"hey babe." colby greeted. you could see the exhaustion in his eyes
"you have some explaining to do sir" you spoke
"what?"
"don't play dumb colby. who were you with?" the question came out harsher than you wanted but you couldn't help it
"i told you, i was filming with sam then we went out with a friend"
"which friend?" you pressed, your voice trembling softly "because the other day i saw a notification from someone named morgan... who the hell is that colby?"
he froze for a second "you went through my phone?"
"no! it was on the table and i saw it, why are you being so defensive"
colby ran a hand through his hair, frustration creeping into his voice "baby, i'm not hiding anything from you."
"then why won't you just tell me the truth colby?" you demanded, your heart pounding in your chest "you've been distant, now staying out late? how am i supposed to feel?!" you snap
he let out a sigh, clearly trying to keep calm "trust me y/n. i promise im not hiding anything"
"then why do i feel like you're slipping away from me?" your voice cracked, tears welling up in your eyes "i don't know what to think colby"
colby's expression softened as he stepped closer to you but you took a step back, avoiding his touch and hurt flashed across his face "please baby. there's nothing going on i swear"
"if there's nothing going on then why can't you just explain it to me?? i don't understand! why is there another girl texting you"
he opened his mouth to respond but the words seemed to die on his lips. he looked down and his shoulders slumped "you don't believe me?"
