It was YOU.

Chapter 27:Say it.!

Chapter 27:

Shane’s POV  

I kicked Lance off Andrea  and I felt my jealousy and anger take over me. I heard everything they said outside and I heard everything Andrea  said. Did she think I was drunk to the point that I wouldn’t understand her? Of course I wasn’t completely sober, but I still had my mind on me! Shows how much she bothers about me doesn’t it? Yet I was still jealous. They were probably snogging the face of each other on my hotel room door!  

I picked up Andrea  and pulled her out the room and walked out to any random place that I could see.  

I eventually ended up at the rooftop before Andrea pulled her arm away from me.   

“Lee Donghae! Why did you drag me up here? Aren’t you drunk?” She screamed at me.  

I turned to face her and swallowed the lump in my throat.  

“Drunk, but you woke me up with your explanation about how Andrea loved me but were unwilling to admit it and that she can only feel gratitude to Travis.” I calmly said. Even thinking about her words got me excited.  

“I said it just to make you feel better.” She said, looking me straight in the eye yet I knew she was telling the truth. Just that it wasn’t everything, she just didn’t tell me she meant it from the bottom of the heart. I had a gut feeling that I was right.  

Yet… I was sick of this, I can’t do this anymore.Andrea Seto, I give up.  

End of POV  

Shane walked closer to Andrea, But Andrea backed away. She diverted her attention to the floor.  

“Andrea, I’m tired. I said I would get you back but I’m tired… I’m mentally and physically tired.” He kept on motioning towards her and Andrea stopped moving back when she was stopped by a wall. She looked back up at him.  

“I…” Jessica began but Shane cut her off.  

“Let me speak first.” He continued, “I’ve waited 7 years… I was hurt for all those years and I still am. How can you be so cruel? If you don’t like me, make me believe you. If you do, then why aren’t we together? Why do I have to marry another woman, someone who I don’t like next week? Why are you marrying someone you don’t love next week? How did we end up like this?”  

Both their eyes brimmed with harsh tears.  

“Answer me, why are you so cruel?”  

Andrea paused to think. “I don’t want to hurt Travis or Joanna…”   “

So you’d rather hurt me and you? You’d rather us both suffer? I don’t want to suffer. At this point in time, I don’t even want to see you beside another man. Earlier on in the club with Lance… I want to forget it. I want to forget that you returned the kiss until you realised I was there. I want to believe that you two weren’t doing anything intimate outside my room.”  

Andrea let some tears fall.  

“I’m sorry… Let’s face it; we both love each other to the extent that it hurts us both. It’s a mutual feeling but I can’t be with you knowing that two people have been by our sides for 7 years; never giving up on us would get hurt. I wouldn’t be able to be happy.” Andrea weakly said.  

“BUT YOU’RE NOT HAPPY RIGHT NOW!” Shane exploded and moved back. “How can I make you understand that I don’t care about them anymore?”  

“How can I personally make you understand that I care about them whether you like it or not. I can leave your business with Joanna to yourself but I’m not going to hurt Travis. Especially when I was the one who accepted his proposal and didn’t cancel it even after I remembered everything.” Andrea turned to leave but Shane stopped her with his words.  

“You once said that if you and Travis did get married one day, he’d have your body but he wouldn’t have your heart, mind and soul. Only one guy would have it. Can you tell me who that guy is?” This time, the sincerity in his voice brought Andrea back.  

Andrea turned back, walking towards Shane she pulled him in for a tight hug.  

“You…” She let all her tears fall down. “It was always you and I don’t know whether or not anyone can replace you. I don’t want anyone But YOU.
