You Can't Stop Love (BOOK1)

Chapter 26 - Break ✔

Sometimes I wish I was single and didn't have to deal with all the relationship drama. Fights, trust, miscommunication with eachother. It's all so hard and I hate that I have to deal with it all the time.

Especially since Ethan is my teacher, we have to keep more secrets and more drama will come our way.

One thing I absolutely hate. Us fighting about something particular. Trust.

The main issue. The main fucking issue and I wish that we trusted each other just like 'normal' relationships.

But I'm not in a 'normal' relationship, so that's rare.

"You can't fucking control me Ethan! You actually think that if I'll go out, I'll go to Fred's? Really?!" I yelled into my phone at Ethan.

And you guessed it. We're arguing again! The joy!

"Who knows, you'll probably go and fucking blow him and then come to me and be all 'in love' with me," He yelled back and I could feel my throat tighten and tears form.

"DO YOU ACTUALLY THINK THAT I WOULD DO THAT?" I yelled so damn loudly god probably heard me.

"GOD KNOWS WHAT YOU DID WHEN I WAS IN NEW YORK! I CAME BACK EARLIER THINKING WE COULD HAVE TIME FOR EACHOTHER BUT NO I STILL FOUND YOU KISSING THE ONLY GUY I FELT COMFORTABLE YOU HANGING OUT WITH!" He yelled back and I had to move my phone away from my ear.

I don't want my ear drum to pop Ethan, thanks.

This is the worst way to start the very first day of my Christmas holidays.

"IT WAS ONLY A KISS!" I cried and he laughed.

"A KISS STILL BREAKS MY HEART! KNOWING THAT THE LIPS I LOVE HAVE KISSED ANOTHER GUY LIPS BREAKS MY HEART JENNI! WHAT IF I TOLD YOU I HAD PRETTY ROUGH, HOT, STEAMY SEX WITH MY EX? HOW WOULD YOU FEEL? HEARTBROKEN? CHEATED ON? ANSWER ME," He yelled again and I burst out crying.

No man should talk about his ex's like that.

"Go fuck yourself Ethan. You are a dickhead," I cried so much that I was practically screaming.

I ended the phone call and threw my phone across my room and heard a loud crack.

I grabbed one of my pillows and pushed it on my face and cried my heart out. My throat was on fire, my eyes felt swollen and my cheeks were soaking wet.

I screamed into it and while screaming, I was kicking off my bed covers from my body and started to bang my right foot on my bed with anger. Slut. Slut. Slut.

When I heard my bedroom door open, I didn't stop screaming. I knew it was Wayne because mom and dad are out of town.

He slammed the door shut and jogged over to me and sat down. Slowly wrapping his arms around me and I continued to cry.

I hate crying in front of people. Like i feel so self conscious about it. That's why if i need to cry, it's usually in the night when everyone is asleep and I'll be on my own.

Finally moving my head away from my poor pillow, I stared at a sad looking Wayne "What happened?" He asked me while moving away a bit of my hair which was stuck on my cheek.

I sniffled and felt hiccups coming along the way "M-me and Ethan argued a-and he thinks I'm a s-slut," I stuttered and started to cry once again.

I felt Wayne's hand tightened around my shoulder and knew he was becoming angry. I continued to cry until I felt him slowly let go of me.

"Jen, calm down a little. Take deep breaths, maybe go in the back yard and lay down and drink water. It will help you refresh you mind. I just need to make a call," He said and I nodded.

Im not getting out from my bed.

I layed down and Wayne grabbed my covers and tucked me in. He smiled and gently kissed my forehead while I continued to sniffle like a maniac.

I watched him walk away and slowly open my door. Before he left he said "I'll fix this Jen,"

And shut my door, leaving me alone in my dark room.

Wayne

No bastard talks like that to my sister, nobody! I dont care if me and him are best friends, he doesn't deserve a girl like her if that's how he's gonna treat her.

I quickly dialed his number and waited for that fucker's voice.

"Listen Wayne I'm sorry-" I didnt let the bastard finish.

"No Ethan YOU LISTEN. YOU NEVER SHOUT AT JENNI LIKE THAT AGAIN! CALLING HER A SLUT? ARE YOU SERIOUS? YOU BROKE HER HEART ETHAN! SHE IS CRYING HER POOR EYES OUT YOU DICK!" I yelled so loudly my throat is on fire.

"I know Wayne I know! I feel so fucking bad. Please let me see her!" I could practically hear the sadness from his voice.

I smiled an evil smile and chuckled "Fuck off Ethan," I muttered but before I ended the phonecall he screamed WAIT.

"Please Wayne. What if I was Novalie's brother and the same thing happened to you guys, wouldn't you want to see her and comfort her and say sorry?" He told me and I put some thought onto it.

I would want to see her asap. I would hate myself if that ever happened to us. I have to let him see her.

"You have a point there. You can come but im giving you guys 20 minutes ONLY!" I yelled at only and he muttered a thank you and ended the phonecall.

Jenni

The tears were still in my eyes when Ethan walked into my room. I looked like a complete mess, yet he looked fine.

Well, he is the kind of guy that keeps everything to himself then will just break down into a million pieces and will need people and medical help to heal him back.

But, he reeked of cigaretted.

He took a few steps towards me until I raised my hand and stopped him "Don't you dare walk closer to me," I spat and he nodded simultaneously and sat down on the floor, knees to his chest.

We stayed staring into each others eyes and he broke the silence "Can we talk about what happened? Please?" He pleaded and I tried my bestest to not burst out crying again.

"You want to talk about you thinking I'm a slut and how you talked about your ex?" I asked him in my most bitchiest tone.

He clenched his jaw "I didn't mean it. I was angry, and my ex was just an example," He told me in such a calm tone I felt like pulling my hair out of my head.

How can he be so calm in a situation like this!

"I don't care! It was still rude and horrible for you to talk like that!" I argued and he got up from the floor and sat on my bed, ignoring my orders from before.

He wrapped his hands around mine and gave me such pleading eyes "I love you Jenni. You are a part of me, and if you weren't I would go fucking crazy. I hate what happened with you and Fred, and I obviously always will but we have an issue in our relationship and it needs sorting out immediately,"

I took in his words and nodded "Our problem is trust Ethan. Trust," I told him and he nodded again.

"We either get couple therapy or.." He stopped himself and squeezed his eyes shut.

"What Ethan?" I asked him and was on the verge of crying again.

He took a deep breath "We take a break,"

And my life came crashing down by those simple words.
