Chapter 35:Hurts so bad

(A/N:I'm kinda nervous about writing this part now...)

Victoria pov
"What are we gonna eat for dinner, yoi?" Marco asked.
"I'll go see whats in the fridge."

I got up from the couch, and walked over to the kitchen. I opened up the freezer, and peered through.

"We've got steak, some frozen veges & garlic bread!" I yelled out.
"That sounds great, yoi."

'Well better start cooking then. I think I might do some eggs as well.'

I spent the next couple of hours preparing dinner for Marco & I. Since Marco eats a lot, I decided to cook him extra. Since I'm cooking, Marco promised that he's gonna do the dishes for me.

"This looks delicious." Marco said when I served everything up.
I grin. "Thaaaanks!"

And thankfully, dinner did indeed taste amazing. Then again, it'd probably taste bland if Marco hadn't have asked if I rain the whole dish with some spices. As promised, Marco did the dishes.

"Are you sure you don't want my help?" I asked.
"I am sure, yoi. You, however, can go upstairs & start doing that French & English assignment right now, yoi."
I rolled my eyes. "Yes sir, governor."

I slowly went upstairs to my room, and grabbed my pajamas & underwear. I cleaned off todays duties, then set myself straight into my assignment. I grabbed out everything that I needed, and started.

'Thank you to Melanie Martinez & Twenty Øne pilots for being my musical company while I work.'

*timeskip*

It was now late at night, and I was just finishing up on some shitty Math homework that I remembered thats due in tomorrow. Marco has claimed that he's gone to bed, but I know that he's just in his room, watching a movie.

'Well gee, I dunno what 'x' is going to equal!'

Suddenly, my music stopped playing, and I saw that I had gotten a message. I sighed tiredly, and opened my phone to check my message. All I knew, is that its from Sanji. I raised my eyebrows when I saw a long paragraph.

'Whats with the long paragraph?'

Sweet love cook (Sanji): Victoria, I love you so much, but I feel like our relationship isn't going too far. Its not you, its me. You're so amazing, and you're so beautiful, but I feel like that I'm not worth your time anymore. I'm sorry, Victoria...I really do love you, but, I am leaving you.

I was just starting to fall asleep when I suddenly heard a loud series of cries. It took me a moment to realize whats going on.

'Victoria.'

I jumped out of bed, and raced over to her room. I flung the door open, and did a quick scan of the place. I saw that Victoria was on the ground crying & screaming.

"Victoria, yoi! Whats happened?!"

She hugged me close, and cried harder into mu shirt. I stroked her hair, and kissed her head.

"Victoria, yoi...whats happened, tell me." I demand.
She looked up at me tearfully, her eyes all red & puffy. "Sanji..." she choked out.
Immediately, I said, "I'm gonna kill him, yoi-"
"NO!" she cried. "No..no don't hurt him! Please! Marco..don't hurt him."
"But he's hurt you, yoi! He broke your heart, and I can't let him slide!"
She had a tight grip on my sleeve. "I know that, but its not worth it!" She was shaking. "Marco...please."
I sighed, and held her close to me. "Victoria...I'm here for you, yoi."

I held Victoria close to me, and let her cry. She'd blubber about how she's the one thats not worth his time. A couple occasions, Sanji would actually try & call her. Every time, Vixen would pick up, and would shout at the phone. Eventually she fell asleep. I laid her down in my bed, and cuddled her to help her sleep. I called Kira, and told her about whats happened.

"Oh god...Vixen."
"I will kill that damn shit head, yoi." I grumbled when I left the bed.
"Marco, don't do it. What good will it do? All it will achieve, is making Victoria even more upset."
"Kira-"
"From what you've told me, it sounds like Victoria still cares about him. If you hurt him, it'll just break her even more. You don't want to be the one that'll hurt her even more, do you?!"

I sat there, processing everything. I grunt in frustration.

"Kira, I just want to see Vixen happy again, yoi. I hate seeing her cry."
"I know..we all do. But for now, its just best if we just help her in anyway....I think its time that I step in, Mar. I know that you're doing a good job in helping her, but she needs that womanly support as well."
I stayed quiet for a moment. "Okay, that'll be good actually, babe, yoi. Do you think that you can come over tomorrow, yoi?"
"Of course..I'm sorry, but I'm really tired. Can we talk some more tomorrow?"
"Of course, go to sleep, yoi. I love you, yoi."
"I love you too, pineapple puddin'."

She hung up, and I went back to sleep. I cuddled Vixen, and went to sleep.

*the next morning*

Victoria pov
I woke up, and found that I was in Marco's bed with him. I stared up at the ceiling, and recited every moment that happened last night.

Sanji & I are over....we're done..

'I feel so empty. I feel pain on the inside. Is this what it feels like to be dumped? It hurts.'

Even more tears formed in the corners of my eyes. The sadness washed over me like the ocean to jagged rocks. I closed my eyes, letting out a shaky breath.

"Oh my god...." I whimpered.
