"I said I'm sorry, what more do you want from me?" I asked Lizzie as she scoffed and packed her bag. I finally came clean and told her that Lexi was pregnant and she took it better than I thought she would... she was even excited for me until I told her that I was with Lexi and her at the same time, then she flipped.

"You cheated on her with me, Jordan, that's a dick move!" She shouted and I took a deep breath to keep calm.

"The relationship was already gone what does it matter?"

She looked at me as if I was crazy. "So you cheat on her? If the relationship was gone then you break up with her, don't cheat on her!"

I folded my arms over my chest and she continued packing her bag and I watched her. I can't say I didn't expect her to leave but I thought I would've put up more of a fight for her.

But I just watched.

"You told me you wanted me to be honest, and I'm being honest and you're leaving me." I pointed out my voice calm, I know what I did was wrong but I thought my honesty would've counted for something.

"No, you came clean because you felt guilty. If she wasn't pregnant would you have ever told me?" I stayed quiet and she shook her head. "That's what I thought." I pressed my tongue to the top of my mouth, my eyes looking around the room.

"I'm sorry," I mumbled and I was truly sorry, why did it feel like I led her on when all I wanted to do was love her?

She sniffed and looked up at me and I couldn't even look her in the eyes, I stared at the ground. I didn't cheat on her not once but I was losing her and I wasn't gonna stop her.

"I'm not the one you owe an apology to." She said and I looked at her, pressing my lips together. "You need to apologize to her, not me." She turned around and left the bus and I came out of the back room and stood in the main area watching her from the window, she got in a car I had called for her, and she glanced back at me before she got in and I sighed.

Another relationship down the drain. Funny how this was the shortest of them all but I felt the worst more than any of the other ones.

But why did a part of me feel relieved?

I took a deep breath pulling my shirt down to take out any creases in it and slowly raised my hand to knock on the door when it opened my eyes widened when I saw Lexi's mom with a knife in her hand and took five steps back.

"I should cut you!" She shouted and I stared at her my eyes widened and my heart beating fast. I knew she would truly cut me if I let my guard down.

She hated me.

And for good reason too.

"Loretta, I just wanna talk to Lexi," I told her and she gave me a stink eye. "Please," I added and she looked as if she would pounce on me, and she started to lunge before the knife was taken from her and I saw Lexi, a breath of relief leaving my mouth.

Though with the look she was giving me I don't know which one of them I preferred holding the knife.

"Ah, little girl, give me that!" Her mom said turning to her and trying to take the knife and I took another step back.

"Mama, go inside I can handle her," Lexi said gesturing her mom inside she turned to me looking me up and down her eyes narrowing and I cleared my throat.

"Hmph." She grumbled as she went inside and Lexi turned to look at me, crossing her arms over her chest, the knife still in her hand and I still felt uneasy.

More so when I saw her mother staring at us through the window by the door, and I saw she had another knife, I looked at Lexi then her mother, gulping and tugging at my collar.
