You Can't Stop Love (BOOK1)

Chapter 28 - Over✔

Ethan

I groggily walked myself to my car at 8 in the morning. Last night was crazy and now that I think about it, I feel like bashing my head against a brick wall.

I fought with my girlfriend, then went and had sex with a stripper and NOW I have to call up Jenni and tell her everything. I have to even if it means us no longer being together.

She needs to know.

I decided on heading home and calling Jenni immediately. Her phone is messed up so I'll be lucky if she answers.

Finally on the third call she answered me.

"I thought breaks are like a week of not speaking then reuniting afterwards not calling on the first day?" She asked me in somehow a relaxed tone.

And I'm just gonna ruin it.

"Can you come over please? I need to tell you something now," I told her and on her side of the line, she was quiet.

"Okay.." She croaked and ended the phonecall.

I threw my phone on the couch and rubbed my eyes with the palm of my hands "I cant believe I've done that," I whispered to myself and stayed in that position for over 20 minutes until the doorbell rang.

I lifted myself off from my couch and ran to the door.

Jenni stood there, looking tired as ever with red blood shot eyes.

We stayed staring at each other until I finally moved to let her in. She walked in slowly and stayed staring at the ground.

Seeing her now makes me realize that she doesn't deserve me.

I shut the door and watched her walk in the living room. I followed her and I sat down on the couch while she sat down on another couch. She stayed staring at the Christmas tree lights flicker until I broke the silence.

"By what I'm gonna tell you, you will probably hate me forever. What I did is unforgiving and you do not deserve me, but I need you to know. I love you Jenni," I told her and she squeezed her eyes shut.

"I need to ask you something though and you cannot lie about it ok?" She asked me, finally looking back at me again and I nodded.

"Did you..cheat on me?" She asked me and I clenched my jaw and looked away from her sad eyes.

"Yes," I croaked and I heard her whimper.

I couldn't bring myself to look. The way she cried was horrible and heart breaking. It was all too much for me.

"It was on me. It was my fault. There's nothing I can do to make that right. You can slap me, scream at me and if you want you can leave me, but I love you Jenni. I love you so fucking much that it sometimes hurts!" I told her and started to get a little louder to make sure she heard me.

She ignored me and continued to cry, but harder this time.

In a flash, she stood up from the couch and was about to walk out from the living room when I grabbed her wrist "Jen please," I said before her hand slapped across my face.

I was stunned and already felt the stinging form "Don't you ever touch me again you bastard. We're over," She cried and pulled away from my hand as I heard her walk out and slam the door shut.

I don't deserve anyone.

"YOU WHAT?" Zara screamed and I tried to calm her down.

I'm over at my mom's house and I was making tea for my family when Zara walked in seeing me cry while pouring the milk in the mugs. Obviously I had to tell her, and now she's screaming her head off and I can see the vein in her forehead throb.

"Don't be so loud! I've only told you," I whispered and she groaned.

"I can't believe you did that Eth! She loves you so much and you decide to go off and have sex with some cheap stripper!" She yelled.

I clenched my jaw and fists and walked up to her "She isn't just a stripper! She's an innocent lady and her only choice was to work there!" I argued.

I can't believe I just stood up for her instead of Jenni.

"I cant believe you Ethan. You're sticking up for a stripper than your own girlfriend!" She yelled and paced back and fourth in the kitchen.

And there you have it folks! I am the worst boyfriend in the world!

Well, ex.
