Love to Hate & Hate to Love Again |Sequel to "Wild Hearts"|

Chapter 3

Ross' POV

While we were driving back home I was still in shock from seeing Haley, she has changed so much. Her hair is darker, she's taller, her figure was more noticeable, she looked like a model. She was stunning, I mean she was before, she will always be.

Her eyes which used to be shining bright now had this green glow in them, but they were still light brown, just different. Behind that smile I saw only once I knew I was bothering her, and there was a wreckage and past. I'm the cause of that. Fuck. I have to make this right.

But one thing I know that hasn't changed is my feelings for her, and the guilt that still sets in the bottom of my stomach from what I did. I hurt her, I didn't mean to. But I still hurt the love of my life, she was my princess and I just slip her away out of my hands like that.

Haley's POV

The Next Day

"Haley, the guys, and Melanie are coming around tonight. Sadly, Sophia can't come." Destiny walked through while biting into her pizza. I don't feel like eating, it makes me feel sick. Don't get me wrong I still eat, but only salads and stuff like that. For some reason every time I ate something I started to hate myself, so when I eat healthy and run I start to like myself. Sounds weird but sometimes it gives me the confidence I need on some days.

"The guys? As in the 4 of them?" I asked praying that would be the answer.

"What?" She asked. "Five. You mean five?" She laughed lightly and I felt the color from my face drain. "S-so Ross is going to be here?" I gulped.

"Haley, it'll be okay." She sighed smiling a little.

Later On

KNOCK,KNOCK,KNOCK.

The knocking at the door turned into a rhythm and I knew it was the boys and girls here, well it was Ellington knocking the rhythm obviously.

"Hal can you get that, please?" She shouted from the bedroom and i let out a sigh shaking my head. "Okay, I'm at it." I jumped up unlocking the door only to be met by Ellington tapping on my head where the door was. " Oops, sorry Haley." He laughed and held up some alcohol.

"Come in then." I laughed stepping besides and let everybody dump their bodies on the couch and floor.

I guess I still did feel mean for ignoring them for half a year, I regret it so much.

At the back of them all was Ross who gave me an awkward smile which I returned before looking at the carpeted ground. His arm brushed past me sending shivers down my spine and I quickly stepped back not wanting to feel the same way towards him like that. I will never again..

That's what I said- stop thinking about the past. It all happened for a reason. The past is the past.I honestly don't know if it happened for a reason.

"Hal, you alright?" Riker asked as I snatched my head towards him. "Y-yeah I'm fine... I'm just going to my bedroom for a sec." I made up an excuse and shut the door behind me. Why is this so hard for me, Ross is probably not affected around me, I mean he's the one who cheated on me. I remember when I said it was all over. I threw my necklace towards his body as Ellington and the guys stared in disbelieve.

I sat in front of the mirror making sure none of my makeup had run or smudged. Luckily I looked the same as I did earlier.

I opened the window just to let some air in before I decided it would be the best if I stay in here for a while. Alone time, I needed that tonight. I know I was being rude staying in my room while people were her but I think they get the point and know why I don't want to be out there. I can't even say his name. It makes me feel sick knowing what he did.

There was a knock at the door and I sighed, "Come in."

It's probably one of the girls wanting something, or even Ell knowing where I was.

As the door opened someone I didn't expected stood there. "Ross.." I gulped sutting up straight. Why did he want to see me. Unless he thought this was the bathroom.

"Ummm...Hey." He mumbled. "Do you want anything?" I asked coming out more as a vulnerable squeak than a harsh comment as it was supposed to be.

"I want to talk to you.." Just then the feeling I had learn to ignore had come back, stronger this time. I need to stop it!

"There's nothing to talk about." I whispered trying to find somewhere else to look apart from his angelic face-enough with the compliments Haley.

"There is and you know there is." He warned his voice filled with anger and sadness. That's when I let all my feels out.

"Of course I know Ross! Of course I do! We need to talk about US! But there's no longer ANY US! AND THERE WILL NEVER BE! I trusted you but no! NO! YOU WERE JUST THE SAME LIKE MY FUCKING EX! You told me you loved me, STOLE MY FUCKING HEART, you left me broken while I was t-there! I saw it Ross! YOU AND THAT FUCKING GIRL, KISSING, GO INTO YOUR ROOM!OH AND I KNOW WHAT YOU WERE GOING TO DO ROSS! Instead of cheating on me like a man whore, you could have told me!"

"Haley pl-" He tried to interrupt me.

"No! I was devastated, you broke me Ross! To the point where my last family member I had left was driven away from! So just leave m-me alone." I broke down into sobs luckily music was blasting out of the speakers so nobody heard all that

I saw a single tear run down Ross' face and I sniffled. "I-i didn't mean to hurt you, the-"

"Well you did!" I cried.

"Let me explain!" He cried out before my door swung open.

"No! No! You've had six months to explain Ross. There's no point any-"

"IN THOSE FUCKING SIX MONTHS HALEY I WAS LOCKED UP IN THE DARK HURTING AND BEATING MYSELF UP OVER WHAT I HAD DONE-"

"Woah, woah stop! STOP!" Rocky gasped jumping between us.

"IT WASN'T MY FAULT I WAS MADE TO DO IT! I LOVE YOU! THEY MADE ME, OKAY, BREAKING UP WITH YOU WASN'T MY CHOICE-"

"I broke up with you idiot!" I hissed.

"BUT I-"

"Ross get out, Haley, hallway. Now." Ellington hissed like he was my parent. I watched Ross storm away and I cried softly in front of everyone. I don't care anymore. It's broken shattered into million of pieces and it's not fixable anymore.
