A Thousand Years | Mesut Ozil (Sequel to Written In The Stars) [completed]

13

While Sam closed the door behind him, Vanessa burst into tears. This wasn't how things should end. Only in the sight of Sam, Vanessa felt awful. How could she behave like that ? She had hurt him and she knew that Sam was a nice guy and he totally didn't deserve that.
She cried for a while until she felt a hand in her shoulder.
- Baby......
Mesut whispered hugging her.
Vanessa continued crying in his chest.
- I hurt him. How could I ?
Mesut's jaw clenched. He couldn't understand why it was a big deal.
- It's okay, baby. He'll overcome it.
Mesut replied, not really knowing what else he should say.
Vanessa wiped her tears away, in an attempt to relax.
- You should probably go. I bet you'll have a lot of explaining to do.
She said.
Mesut kissed her forehead.
- It can wait.
Vanessa pushed him away.
- Enough with this. The fact that I broke up with Sam, doesn't mean anything. We're still not together and you still have a girlfriend, who still happens to be a colleague of mine, so don't forget that you're not allowed neither to touch me, nor to kiss me.
Mesut was surprised by her words. Well, he really had thought that after Sam breaking up with her, Vanessa was again his girlfriend. But apparently he was wrong.
- That's how you respond after everything I did to break you up ?
He asked her.
Vanessa chuckled.
- Leave Mesut. Me breaking up with Sam, doesn't change the fact that you have cheated on me.
- Here we go again.
Mesut said running his fingers through his hair in frustration.
Vanessa smirked.
- What did you expect ? That I would sleep with you again, the moment that I would break up with Sam ?
She hissed.
Mesut laughed.
- In case you have forgotten it, you were about to do so, before the doorbell interrupted us.
- Of course I didn't. But that's what you wanted to believe.
Mesut grabbed her wrist violently.
- I don't like the games you play Vanessa. You could at least be clear with me.
- I was clear with you but you didn't want to understand that I don't want you in my life anymore. We're over. It's over. You have to go on with your life. Forget me.
Mesut's expression softened.
- But I can't. I can't forget you Vanessa. Everything changed since I met you. And by kicking me out all these times, the only thing you managed to do is making me be even more obsessed with you. Cause I love you.
- Then......why did you cheat on me ?
- I didn't.
Vanessa's eyes had filled with tears again.
- And what about Tanya ?
She asked.
Mesut lifted her chin, making her look at him.
- Nothing about her. Please, forgive me Vanessa. Can't we just forget this ?
Vanessa dropped her gaze.
- I need some more time.
- Time ?
- Yes. I need to think about it Mesut. Cause I'm still not sure that I believe you. And you have to sort your feelings out with Tanya. And don't forget, that I do work with her, and you're just making everything really difficult.
Mesut chuckled.
- I can't believe that this is what I receive after everything I have done for you. You know what Vanessa ? I'm a fool for trying that much, you clearly don't deserve it. All these times that you said that you love me ? Now I know. You're a liar. You can do whatever you want. You asked me to be out of your life, don't worry. Will do. Take your time. And when you decide what you want, you'll find everything there. Except from me.

Vanessa cried in Louisa's shoulder for what seemed like a decade. Fortunately, they were just the two of them in the studio, being both early.
- He was so mad at me Louisa. And he was right. Everything he said. I shouldn't have acted like that. And if he cheated on me ? I love him so much, I could have forgotten that.
Vanessa continued crying while Louisa patted her shoulder friendly.
- Look Vanessa, what he did was definitely not right but yes, you may have been a little too harsh on him about it.
- And what if this is the end ?
Vanessa asked between tears.
- It won't be the end, Vanessa. He loves you. He won't just let go.
- And what if he does ?
- He won't. Trust me. If he didn't care about you, he would have already left you. He wouldn't have tried in the slightest.
- And now what ? I can't just leave things like that.
- You asked time Vanessa. And he'll give you time. So, till then, focus on your movie.
