Ravens POV🖤
The entire rest of the day my mind was clouded by what happened with Dakota. I didn't mean to keep stringing her along but it's just something about her that's inviting and warm and comforting. I wanted to say I'm in love with her too when she said it but I couldn't. Not while I have this ring on my hand making me remember my vows that we've both broken. But I do love her, so fucking much.
I gather all my things and head out of the school and drive home. When I pull up the driveway I see Jamie is home already. It's only 3 since I got off early. So him being home already is weird. I get out skeptically and head inside. I walk into the house and hear music blasting. "What the fuck?! Jamie?!" I find him in the kitchen taking a shot of whiskey. I turn off the Bluetooth and look at him. "Jamie!"
"Shit, h-hey baby." He hiccups. Ugh of course he's drunk. Way to make this easier for me.
"Seriously?! Jamie what the fuck?!" I slam my keys and purse on the counter.
He walks up to me and tries to grab me but I step away. He looks sad and also guilty. "Raven, baby I-I um have something to tell you. I'm not proud of it and nor am I trying to make excuses but-
"You're cheating on me. Yeah I know." He looks at me confused.
"Dakota told you?" He asks sounding hurt that his bestfriend would tell me.
"No I knew already. I've known since we've been engaged. I thought it was just you getting it out of your system and that you'd stop once we got married but of course you didn't." I spit and he looks down in shame. "I cheated on you too." I let out not even feeling guilty about it.
He looks up and his brows together. "What?"
"I cheated on you too Jamie. Today actually." I say boldly not caring anymore. He comes in here drunk fucking up my day every day, cheats on me, and now I'm confused about my sexuality because of Dakota.
He nods. "Well I can't really be mad right?" He asks and I shake my head. He nods again and then chuckles. "I assume you want a divorce?" He asks looking at me with those eyes that used to make me swoon over him.
"Yes I do." He nods.
"I won't fight you Raven. I know your dad wanted me to sign a pre nup before we got married." My eyes go sympathetic. He smiles and shakes his head. "Hey don't do that. You didn't give it to me to sign because you trusted me. I know I fucked that trust up but still. I'll atleast do this one thing right." I smile and I hug him despite the smell of the alcohol all over him.
"Thank you Jamie. I do love you and I'm sorry for cheating on you."
"There's no need to apologize to me. I'm the one who fucked up. You had all the right." I nod. "But can I ask you something?" I nod again for him to continue. "Not that it matters." I look at him confused. He swallows. "Who was it?"
Dakotas POV❤️
I drive immediately to my house after being at the park thinking about what happened. I slam the door when I walk in. "Holy shit! What's up with you?!" Mik yells coming into the living room as I pace.
"I fucked up!" I yell biting my nails.
She grabs me and pushes me down on the couch. "Dakota what the fuck happened? Does it have to do with Raven?" I nod. "Of course." She mumbles and rolls her eyes. "What now?"
"We had sex!" She nods for to me continue. "Again." I spit out and she starts laughing and then covers her mouth when I frown at her.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry!" She yells as I stand up to walk away from her. "Why?" She asks.
