Cupcakes

Chapter 2

"Aj I swear who is at the door? Who could possibly be.." I then felt her grab the door and open it wider so she could see who is at the door. "Corey?" She spoke in a low whisper. And this is the part where my heart starts to ache with sorrow.

"Paige baby I'm so sorry I didn't mean to hurt you. You know I love you more than my own life. I know I fucked up last night but that wasn't me." He teared up looking at her. "Babe you know me I can't live without you by my side. I'm so fucking sorry Paige please don't hate me you know I can never hurt you on purpose. I even got you a teddy as a symbol of our lo-"

"Alright Mr. Graves I think you should go it's obvious she doesn't care about what you have to say. So you and your stupid little.." I then took the animal from him to get a better look at it. "Really a frog!? You got her a stuffed frog? Is that all she means to you just some measly orange frog? You're ridiculous." I then took the frog and shoved it in his chest. "She doesn't want you anymore so I suggest you g-"

"Aj!" Paige growled warning me to step down. "Will you give us a minute please?" She spoke softly.

"Why you don't need him Pai! You can do so much-"

"April inside now please!" She growled pulling me into my apartment. I made sure to slam the door shut in the process. Fuck him! "What has gotten into you?"

"I'm just being a good friend and keeping you from doing something dumb. I was only being honest." I defended myself.

"What did I tell you before?" She asked.

"I don't care Paige I don't want him to hurt you again. I only want to protect you, he is no good for you. I can't stand the-"

"Look I understand you're just looking out for me, but when it comes to Corey let me handle it okay. So can you just do me this solid and stay in here and be quite?" She said seriously with pleading eyes.

"But he-"

"Please Aj for me." I can't say no to her, especially when she has on her pouty face. So I let out a deep breath.

"Three minutes. He has three minutes then he has to go. And I'm going to stand by the door and listen." I spoke half heartedly. I don't even want to give him three seconds to talk to her. He doesn't deserve her.

"Thank you." And with that she gave me a kiss on the cheek. Just like that I lost her to the demon spawn himself. There's nothing more I can really do at this point. I just watched her walk over to the door open it and walk through it closing it behind her. How can she even bare to look at him after what he did? It makes me so sick that she keeps falling for his stupid gimmick of how he feels awful about hurting her. And I know he doesn't mean it because if he did she wouldn't constantly be calling me three in the morning crying over him, and if he actually felt bad he wouldn't do it again. But it all happens in a ugly cycle and I'm here just waiting for the day she comes to her senses and leaves him for good. Maybe today will be the day it happens, with that I walked up to the door close enough so I can hear what they are saying.

"What do you want?" Paige spoke flatly.

"I want you! You're all that I want and need Paige. It's you who has my heart and I just want you to take it back. I know I don't deserve you and Aj absolutely hates my guts but can you just find it in you to give me another chance? I can fix-"

"Corey that's what you say everytime we do this! Look at us, we are both toxic venom for each other. You promise me it won't happen again but it always happens again and I'm losing hope for us. I dunno if-"

"No baby I really mean it this time. You don't mean any of that we're in love Pai, I love you and you love me. You've always been there for me I don't know where I'd be if you ever let me go. I can't stand the thought of you being with anybody else we belong together." Yeah well I can't stand you being with her so that's awkward. "I miss you I can't sleep or eat without you, look at me I'm a mess. After you stormed out I broke down I really thought I might lose you this time.. So I can't even imagine the pain I'd feel if I really lost you for good. You're my entire world, the sun to my galaxy and if you leave I'll die." No he doesn't. It's all lies they where before and they are now. If the sun were to really go out his hothead temper can keep him warm."Please Paige I can make this right just let me make this right again. Just let me love you again I'll understand if you can't forgive me right now but I'm willing to do whatever it takes for you to love me again." And then it went silent. So I looked out the peep hole to see what's happening. She's just standing against my door staring at him. And now he's crying. Those are crocodile tears they might be falling but they aren't because he hurt her it's because he knows she can leave him at anytime. I'd cry to if I knew I fucked up real bad, and there are a million reasons why she shouldn't take me back. "Babe please say something you're breaking my heart with the silence. I'm sorry I just want you to be my girlfriend again. You're Corey's girl not Joe's, not Colby's, not Jon's or whoever, your mine Paige." Correction she's Aj's girl.
