Torn up. ~Flamingeos Fanfiction

Chapter 97

GEO'S POV

I walked straight past Alisha who was staring at me with a happy expression and stormed straight into my cell, slamming the door shut. Seconds later Alisha was sitting beside me and it took a lot to not demand her to leave.

"I did it. She's not mine anymore." I spat, too angry to even look at her. 

Alisha didn't say anything. Her eyes were stuck to her feet and something told me that she felt bad. So she should, I've lost Lucy because she told me to so she can have me all to herself probably. 

"This boy called Jack told me how he's going to take her away from me." I was crying now, something which I haven't done in what seems like ages. "I know how he feels because I love her just as much as him.. but damn it was hard to not act bothered."

"Geo.. it's for the best." Alisha sighed. She put her hand on my back for reassurance and I sharply moved away. "I'm really sorry Geo, please don't get mad at me." 

I sighed and rested my head on my hands whilst staring at the floor. This really sucks. Lucy is going to fall in love with Jack and soon forget about me. She could have bailed me out. I could have been free. I could have lived with Lucy and felt overjoyed. But no, I decided to stay in this depression building because Alisha told me to. What is wrong with me?

You know what, why should I even care anymore? Why can't I do something that I want to do for once? Why do I feel the need to listen to Alisha's useless advice? 

"I'm done Alisha." I told her angrily, standing up. Alisha quickly stood up as well and stared at me with panicked eyes. "I'm going to do things for me from now on, not for you."

I then stared at her with a disgusted expression for a while, wondering how I ever let a girl like her ruin my life and walked off. I didn't know where I was going, but I just need to get away from her. 

I was about to go outside to do some training with other prisoners to distract me but then got stopped by a guard. 

"Mario Selman is waiting for you in the main hall." He told me, towering over me and looking down at my face as though I was dirt. I nodded, feeling too intimated to talk and then made my way to Mario. 

Mario gave me a brief smile when I reached my seat and then cleared his throat after I sat down in front of him. 

Firstly he asked me how I was and we talked about prison for a while, but then he said the word I was waiting for him to say.

Lucy.

"She loves you a lot you know." He told me, staring right into my eyes. He defiantly isn't lying. 

"She'll move on to Jack soon."

"Jack..?" Mario asked. I frowned, confused. Does he not know who Jack is? Surely he would seeing as him and Lucy are best friends. "No, Jack is going out with Ariel."

"B-but he told me that he loves Lucy."

This time Mario was frowning at me. I stared right back at him to show him that I'm being truthful, and then Mario finally broke eye contact and stared at the floor in thought. 

"I need to tell Ariel this.."

"I love Lucy."

I know what I said was kind of random, but I didn't want to wait to tell him. I felt too excited for some reason. 

"Tell her that. Tell her I want her to visit me tomorrow."

Mario nodded, a faint smile appearing on his face. I could see that he was really happy about what I just told him, probably because he knows how much Lucy wants me. 

"She'll be really happy to hear that." He smiled. He then stood up and said goodbye by saying: "Thanks Geo, see you soon."

And then he was off, leaving me sitting on my seat with a fast beating heart and a stomach filled with butterflies.
