break up

You were furious.  You couldn't believe what he did to you.  What he didn't do for you, more like it.

"Y/N." Lucky chased you.  "Wait."

Your breath hitched because you were so angry.  "I trusted you.  How could you?" you replied still walking forward.

"I know, I know..I don't know why I did that.  I'm so sorry." the frustration and disappointment in his voice is why you believed him.

"I know you are." you grumble harshly.  "But that doesn't change anything.  There is absolutely no reason why you did what you did!"

He grabbed your hand but you pull from him.

"Get off me!"

"Please let me make this right.  I messed up really bad-"

"I'm glad you just now noticed!  Having all your friends embarrass me like that after I open up to them, and then you not doing anything is a shit move!  Real shit!" you shrieked

"Y/N, just let me talk to you face to face." his voice cracked and tears formed

Lucky only said that because he knows you become a certain way when you look into his eyes.  Dismissing.

"You know I love you," you stop before getting into your car.  "And I know you love me but you're obviously not ready to love me."

"Don't say that, of course I am!  Y/N I'm down with anything when it comes to you--you know that!"

"You would've defended me if you were down with anything.  Not only did you make me look bad, but you also lost my respect and trust." you were so upset you didn't realize you were crying.  "I forgive you for that thing you pulled back there, but I sure as hell won't forget."

Lucky brings his hands up to his mouth in a 'prayer' form.  "It won't happen again."

"You're right because I won't let you."

"Wh-what are you trying to say?  Are you breaking up with me?" you didn't know it was possible but his eyes grew sadder.

"Maybe when you get your head on straight you will realize how much you don't need me.  Thank you, Lucky, for everything but I think this is for the better."

He steps a little close, "Don't do this."

You put on your sunglasses to hide your swollen eyes.  "You know you'd be nothing but selfish if you try to get us back together."

"You only say that because you want us to get back together...eventually." he traces your cheekbone with his thumb lightly.

"If you love me, you would know to leave me alone." you quickly got into your car and drove off.

In the rear view mirror, you can still seem him standing there.  He gets smaller and small by the second; his figure soon becomes one with the sunset.
