Untouchable

Promise

My mom had to make up a story for Christmas. I take Krav Maga. I got my ass handed to me.

Christmas came and went without a word to Kevin.

Without a word from Kevin.

It's as if he stopped talking to me the day I stopped talking to him.

Everyone asked why I was so depressed. I said I wasn't.

But you are.

No I am not.

I took a deep breath.

I sat there on my bed with my hair all over the place and tissues surrounding me.

I heard a knock at the door.

I didn't answer

My mom opened the door and peeked her head through.

"Hun?" She questioned

She looked around the room and then at me.

"You are a complete mess. Just go talk to him." She said

I lifted myself up with tears coming from my eyes, "Mom I can't"

"Yes you can" She said

"I stopped talking to him without any explanation and he just let me. He hates me." I cried

"You don't know his half. Go talk to him." She said

"I can't mom," I shook my head, "I did such a stupid thing. It's been a week. One whole week and he has done nothing." I said

"Go see him" She repeated

I lifted myself up and wiped my tears, "Okay"

~~

I stood there in front of his house. My heart was pounding and I couldn't seem to catch my breath.

I slowly walked up to the front door and knocked

No answer

I knocked again

No answer.

Maybe he's not home.

If he's not home then I'm not coming back.

Right as the thought pranced through my mind, the door swung open to reveal Kevin.

His hair was a mess. His clothes were a mess. He was a mess.

"Emma" He stated

"look who the fuck showed up. You know I haven't slept in days, wondering where the hell you've been. What the hell you've  been doing. Who the hell you've been doing." He sneered

"Kevin. Where are you parents?" I asked

"Out." He said coldly

"You're off your meds." I said

"How would you know that? Who the hell do you think you are? Walking into my life, fucking everything up. Destroying everything. And leaving. I'm not even me anymore because of you." He said getting extremely close to my face.

"I'm not me anymore because of you! I am a completely different person. I had friends. I had a life. I had everything! Every guy wanted to date me and of all the guys I could have chosen, I chose you. That was obviously a huge mistake because you ruined my life!" I yelled

He grabbed my hair and tilted my head so I was looking up at him.

"You didn't even break up with me. You are such a gutless piece of shit. I love you and I give you as much as I can and you don't even respect me enough to break up with me. I did not ruin your life, you ruined your life." He spat
