My love for you is a never ending war...

Devon

After regaining my senses back I quickly scrambled my way up and began silently running back to the elevator, I quickly pressed the buttons. I felt agitated and frustrated by how slow it was or maybe I was just eager to get the heck out of there. The elevator finally came down and as the doors opened, I threw myself in and with one hand covering my mouth, I used the other one to press the button the the first floor.

I leaned back into the steel wall and heaved a deep sigh of relief. I buried my face into my palms.

"What the fuck was that!!!"

"Mom...what the fuck? My eyes, my fucken eyes! I think I need some bleach and detergent, fast!"

As soon as the elevator reached the first floor and the doors opened, I bolted out of there and ran to my car. I quickly got in and drove off.

Forget it, forget IT!

When I arrived at our mansion I roughly parked my car in the driveway and ran inside. I saw that all the lights were still on but there was no sign of Andrea anywhere. She must have went to sleep. I ran to my room and shut myself in. Without wasting anymore time I took a quick shower, after doing so I threw myself into my bed and went to sleep. That was enough for the day.

The next morning I was suddenly awoken by a phone call. I lazily opened one eye and grabbed my phone on my bedside table. When I took a better look, i saw that it was Julian. What does this fucker want now?

I reluctantly answered.

"Julian?", I mumbled.

"Devon get your ass here right now! I want you in my office at the underground cave right now! Don't make me wait!", he shouted. He sounded very angry. I wondered what could've caused him to call me this early in the morning. I groaned in annoyance before answering.

"Right. I'll be there soon", I hung up.

I layed back into my pillow and sighed heavily before rubbing my sleepy eyes. I once again stared at the picture of her.

"I miss you so much Evanly..."

When I checked the date, I noticed that today marked the day when we first broke up. I could still remember it like it were yesterday and it still hurts so much. I put aside my phone and set up straight in bed.

"I wonder what Danzel is up to right now. I should call him", I quickly grabbed my phone and called him on face time. It rang for a few seconds before he picked up.

"Danzel, hey", I yawned.

"What's up with you? You look like shit and you haven't cut your hair?", he scoffed.

"Shut up, I've been busy trying to save you", I chuckled at his comment.
