Yours Forever.

Chapter 38

Rosie's POV :
Luke. The name that made my heart beat faster. The person that made me sob for him the entire 3 months. But it wasn't him who made me cry, it was the person that I became when he was with me.

The person I was wasn't the actually me. In the end all I had were tears. The emptiness in my soul was irreplaceable by anyone and what hurted me the most was that I couldn't tell it to him. I had saved some of his voice notes in my gallery and I used to listen to them every night before falling asleep. His voice alone was enough to drive me to tears.

One morning before my exam, I woke up with my phone beeping. The sound of the vibrations were so high that it made my phone fall off the table. I hardly opened my eyes and lifted them to look at the clock. It was 4 in the morning. I could barely understand what was going on so I decided to get out of bed and check what was up with my phone. I picked up my phone and unbolted it.

It was Henry's text. Henry William. This guy joined Fortitude in the last year of middle school. He was Alicia's recent boyfriend. He was that playboy type who would stab a girl's heart and leave her crying for him. He wasn't really that good looking but he knew ways to entrap girls for his love, and he did the same with my best friend, Alicia. They started talking on a random chat one evening and ended up being in a relationship after 4 days of their chat. Alicia was always hesitant to admit that she was completely in love with him but he publically announced it like a million times. It had been 2 months since they were together and I remember telling Alicia to stay away from him to which she replied.

"Rosie, if your boyfriend left you and you're single doesn't really mean that I'm supposed to be single too."

Since that day, I avoided her because she was too self centred. She always thought that she was an inspiration to others and people copied her when in fact she lost friends because of that. Even Luke used to like her, no doubt she was damn attractive. Her long, lush and flowing hair would grab any guy's attention. And her confidence was her best outfit.

"You're Luke's girl right? I heard you guys are the sweetest couple of Fortitude."

What a pointless thing to talk about. He actually woke me up by calling me repeatedly and then left that worthless text just to talk about that useless thing.

"Was*. We broke up. Don't text again."
I was annoyed by that text. I got an instant reply to that text which left me shock.

"What? Why did you break up with him?"

"What does that have to do with you?"

"Just thought we could be friends?"

"Uh what? Dude listen. I respect you cus you're Alicia's boyfriend but make sure that does not let you invade my personal space."

"Girl. I need to talk to you about Alii."
Okay that seemed serious. I just wanted to help him because that was about my best friend.

"Sup?"

"Alicia told me to re unite you and Luke or she would break up with me."

"Why? What's up with her now. I will talk to her dude you don't worry. She won't do any such thing."

"No! Don't tell her that I told you."

"Okay."

He didn't seem as bad as I thought. He was a friendly guy and quiet polite too so I decided to talk to him because I didn't want my best friend's relationship to ruin because of me. I didn't want her to go through the pain from which I went through. 

"Listen to me Henry. Don't ever cheat on her. She really loves you okay?"

"He loved you too. You left him."

Time paused and so did my senses. The feeling of guilt arouse in my heart and tears began to form in my eyes before rolling down through my cheek.

"I didn't love him. He was just another jerk who would've hurted me if I would've been with him till now."

"Jerk? He is such an amazing guy."

"Gosh come on! I'm not a baby sitter okay. He was not my baby. Let me live my life the way I want please!"

"You'll regret it later Rosie."

"Just keep your advices with you okay? And if Luke has sent you here to convice me to go back and babysit him again so that's not happening anyway. Tell that bastard to F off!"

I had no idea how my fingers typed those words and how my mind accepted abusing the person who was nothing less than being my whole world. He did not reply me. He got his all answers for Luke. But maybe this was important for telling Henry to go away.

I was hopeful that Luke won't tell any of his friends to follow me after the way I told Henry to leave me alone.

"I'm sorry Luke."
I whispered to myself before sobbing my hurt out and sleeping in my own puddle of tears.

Rosie is trying her best to convey this to Luke that they aren't meant to be but she thinks that Luke told Henry to talk to her. But Luke doesn't even talk to Henry, they aren't even friends. Then what is Henry's purpose of talking to Rosie about her relationship? Why does he want them to reunite when there is nothing in their story that has anything to do with Alicia or Henry.
