All because i liked a Boy

Overwhelmed - chapter 9

Adeline POV

I couldn't speak, couldn't blink and couldn't even think as the tears just roll down my face.
The only thing I notice was a warm Hand reach over to grab both of my shoulders.

Lando turned me to face him and I bet he is confused and worried about why I just started crying but I can't get anything out of my mouth.

"Lin, Addy! What's wrong? What's going on?" My best friend asks while shaking me.

"I-" trying to tell him what happened didn't work. A shiver ran down my spine and my breathing got heavier.

"Lin please tell me!" Lando expresses. I think he is trying to act calm but I also didn't miss the worry in his voice. Obviously! His best friend just started crying at her phone and isn't telling you why.

The phone

I remember how it fell to the ground. Loosening his grip from my shoulder I bent down to pick it up with shaky hands. The article was still open and I shoved the phone into Lando's hand not baring an other glance at the paparazzi pictures.

He looks at me confused but then slowly shifts his eyes to the screen. You could literally see who he understood why I was crying. He read the short text before seeing the heartbreaking pictures I just saw.

His mouth fell a gap and the hold he had an my phone tightened.
"That little dickhead." He mutters under his breath but I catchend it anyway.

"Lin I am so sorry. You don't deserve this at all. Please believe me when I say that this-" he pointed to my now black phone "-is all his fault and not yours at all!" He tells me. His arm reached around me and pulled me in for a hug.

I instantly fell into the warm embrace and cry into his neck. As Lando rubs my back up and down I started to calm down a bit and my lung finally filled with enough air again.

"Why did he- and with his ex? He told me we were fine." The sobs escaped my mouth as my thoughts were racing.

"I know Lin. Shhh. It'll be okay." Lando soothes me.

"I just can't wrap my head around the fact that he cheated on me and not with anyone... but his stupid ex girlfriend..." I tell him honestly a hiccup breaking my sentence.

"He is a piece of shit and did the biggest mistake Someone could muster. Lin, you deserve better!" Lando whispered as we Part again and his hand comes up to my face to wipe away the stains of tears from my face.

"Let's get out of here, yeah?" My best friend asks in a soft voice smiling reassuringly at me.

"N-no we wanted to- to celebrate your win!" I say feeling guilty to ruin his night.

"Lin I really don't want to stay here after what happened. You are way more important that celebrating...or even winning for that matter!" He tells me and stands up holding my hand tight for me to follow him.

"I will just text Oscar th-" he starts but got interrupted.

"Text me what? You guy leaving alrea-" Oscar charmed from the side before looking at me and stop speaking.

"Addy what happened?" Oscar asks concerned.

I look at Lando trying to show him that I really don't, no, can't talk about this to Oscar right now. He immediately understood.

"I'll call you later alright mate? We really gotta go." He said and giving Oscar a look. I guess he understood because he only nodded, telling us bye and went to search for Liz.

"Thank you" I whisper as me and Lando start heading out of the club to his car. He just smiled down at me walking next to me with his arm around my shoulder.

Relief washed over me once we were finally sat in his car. Lando sits in the drivers seat and I sit in the passenger seat. I pull my legs up to my chest and hug my knees trying to make the pain in my heart stop.

"I'm drive us to the hotel room, okay?" Lando asks from beside me. I know he is looking at me but I couldn't dare to look back. He saw me crying already I just need to avoid this everything right now. I only nod in response.

"Adeline, I know this is hard right now but please remember that I'm gear for you. You are an amazing, incredible and sweet person! This dick head can't take that away and I swear next time I see him he will he will not-" Lando tells me in a gentle but also angry tone but I cut him off looking at him.

"It's okay Lando, just- please drive us back." I say in a quite voice turning my head to the window again.

The boy next to me sigh and started the car. In only a few seconds we were speeding down the road back to our hotel.

After everything that happened the last 15 minutes I only want to lay down in bed and wake up with this all being a big nightmare. But the pain in my chest doesn't leave it only intensifies as I look down my phone to the thousands of messages I got.

This isn't a nightmare. It's real.

Hey you guyssss,
Sorry for the long cliffhanger that was not intentional at all, I swear!
However I haven't had enough time to make this chapter longer than it now is but if course the next chapter will go on from where we are right now. I'm reallly bad at writing those sad moments and chapters so please don't be too disappointed pls.

Anyway...
