The Bad Boy Changed Me | ✔

Chapter 24

Over the last 3 months, Drew has taken me to counseling, Tori pretended to be my best friend again, Luke went back home, Cole tried to talk to me, Nick tried to talk to me, and I think I've been falling for Drew.

First, Drew took me to counseling. i didn't think I needed it, but I gotta be honest, I needed it. I still have thoughts that don't let me live a happy life, but I'm working on it.

Second, Tori. This bitch tried to come back into my life after dumping me and me attempting to commit suicide. It went like this: 

"Oh my god Roxy! I was so worried about you!"

"Fuck off."

"Roxy, I was worried!"

"You're a really bad liar."

"I'm sorry about what I said, but I still care about you!"

"Fuck you." I repeat.

Connor didn't bother after that, but Tori, being Tori, kept trying. 

And trying. 

And trying.

until i deleted her contact.

Luke went back home after being in the hospital for a week. I talked to him and he gave me a whole lecture on life even though he didn't live it for like 2 months. Let's just say I was in a snappy mood that day. He didn't mind, but I still feel bad.

So, my exes tried to talk to me. First Cole. He wanted to "clear things up" between us. Clear things up my ass. Shut the fuck up. That conversation went like this:

"Hey, I'm sorry for getting jealous and all that shit. You were right to stick by Drew. Are we cool?"

"Fuck no."

"Roxy, I still want to be friends."

"If you wanted to be my friend, you should've tried earlier. I don't want your friendship out of pity. In fact, I don't want your friendship at all."

"Roxy, please hear me out."

"You broke my heart, Cole. I never thought you would do that and I can't put myself through that again even if we are only friends. You got to understand."

I try to walk away, but he grabs my hand.

"I know I broke your heart and I regret it everyday. But please give me a chance."

"I'm sorry."

Then, Nick tried to tak to me. That fucker. I put him in his place.

"Hey Roxy." he greets. I groan and roll my eyes.

"What do you want?"

"Do you want to grab coffee later?"

"You are not my friend. Why don't you invite Lacey?"

"We broke up."

"It's about time. Did she finally realize what an asshole you are?"

"I broke up with her." My jaw drops. 

"Why?"

"I wanted to be with you." He plays with my hair and bites his lip. 

This little fucker.

I scoff. "Like Taylor Swift said, In your wildest dreams." I smirk.

"I love you." Three words I would've loved to hear 8 months ago.

"Fuck you."

"Come on. Give me a chance. I'll be good to you."

"You told me that at the beginning of our relationship. Look at how that ended. Leave me alone, Nick. I don't love you. I never will. So quit trying."

I ended the conversation and haven't even looked at him since.

The last piece of the puzzle, Drew. Now I know what you are thinking, "She was with Cole and Nick in the same year! What a whore! She likes Drew?" If that is what you are thinking, then fuck off. If you are thinking, "She's going to get hurt again!" then I disagree with you.

Drew has stood by my side this year. He might've been an asshole before, but he has really changed. He cares about me. I mean, he saved my life. He has done so much to help me and didn't leave me when my life went downhill. This boy is so amazing and is so good to me. I wouldn't be alive if it weren't for him. When he hugs me, my heart melts. I want to be with a guy like him. Someone who cares about me and doesn't leave my side, even in the hardest of times. Someone I can talk to easily and not worry about being judged. A guy who would go to the ends of the world for me. I need a Killian Jones to my Emma. I need a Damon to my Elena. I fell for him and I fell hard, but I have no regrets.

It's April now. I have moved on from all the shitty things in my life.

The doorbell rings and I hear the door open. Drew comes in with a smile and lots of food.

"Why do you bother ringing the doorbell if you just walk in?" I ask as he sits next to me on the couch. I keep scrolling through Netflix.

"I want you to know that i came in or else it's just creepy." His smile widens.

I smile back and turn to the tv screen.

"Romance movie?" I ask.

"Sure. Whatever you want."

"How about the Longest Ride? I love that movie."

He shrugs. "Whatever you want."

We start playing the movie. Half way through there is a sex type scene. I find it awkward considering the fact that I'm watching a sex scene with the person I'm slowly falling in love with.

My head is resting on his shoulder and my knees are against my chest. I look up at him and he looks down at me. His eyes sparkle and his smile gives me butterflies. Something clicks between us and I sit upright without breaking eye contact. He holds my head in his hand and I put my hand on his cheek. I lean in, my face just inches from his.  My eyes slowly closed, and I feel the warmth of his gentle lips growing close to my own. I feel his lips slowly press up against mine. They're soft, gentle.  I let my tongue recoil from my lips and slide into his, feeling every inch of his mouth. I kiss him harder. I feel as if a spark just blew into a million pieces in between us. I pull back and realize that I'm panting. So is he. He closes the gap between us again and fireworks go off inside me.
