Crossing The Line

Chapter Fifty Eight

Morgan's POV

It had been two weeks since Kelley left the hospital. We left the team hotel because the next time we would come together would be for some friendlies in March. Kelley, Alex and I got an apartment in New York and things were different from what I had expected.

I thought that things would be better and that everything would be happier but I was wrong... and I should have seen this coming.

I should have known that Kelley was going to have a tough time getting through the emotional trauma that she has been through and I know that it wasn't easy for her. But, the way she was handling with things through me off.

She yelled quite a lot whenever me or Alex went to talk to her and sometimes, she would stay silent for the entire day. In other words, she had very aggressive behavior and I wasn't really prepared for it but I guess I should have seen this coming because it was not going to be an easy road.

"Kelley, you have to take your medicine." I say as I opened up the bottle of pills with her medications inside it. She moved my hand away from her and looked away from me with her arms crossed.

"Please, Kelley, the doctor wants you to take this." I say and this time she looked at me with a cold look in her eyes.

"Who cares about what the doctor says." She spat and then, she looked away from me. It was like her attitude was only getting worse.

"I care because this should help with the pain." I say as I hand her the bottle of pills only this time, she knocks it out of my hands and all the pills spill everywhere. I run my hand through my hair, pissed at what she just did.

"Damn it Kelley!" I scream as I pick up the bottle and don't even bother to pick up the pills. I slam the bottle onto the table and it seemed to have startled Kelley as she jumped.

"I'm trying, Kelley but you're making no effort at all! Do you think this is easy for me? Seeing you in this bed unable to do anything? God, Kelley, its kills me to see you in so much pain and I can't help you. I can't take this pain away and I wish I could. This isn't you, Kelley. And you're too oblivious to notice things!" I say not even realizing that I was crying. I wiped away my tears and Kelley looked at me shocked.

"Notice what!" She fired back.

"Me! You don't realize that this is causing me a great burden and that I feel helpless. When was the last time you told me you loved me, let alone kiss me?" I ask and she stayed silent. "When was the last time we had a conversation? When was the last time you ever cuddled with me?" But again she stayed silent.

"I'm losing you and you don't even know it! That's how oblivious you are! You're making no effort at all to make it seem like you care about me and my feelings! And Alex! She is your best friend and you're pushing her away! For god sakes, at least make it look like you care about me and still love me!"

Silence. She didn't say a word.

"Do you still love me?" I ask and this time I wasn't hoping for silence. I wanted her to tell me that she still loved me but again, silence.

"I'm done here." I mumble as I grab my phone and leave the room, slamming the door shut. I walked outside and stared at the sky before walking off to a coffee shop.

I ordered myself some coffee before I sat down at the back of the coffee shop where I recognized a girl that just walked in. It was Chloe with her usual blue scrubs on which mean she just got off of work.

She ordered her coffee and when she saw me she smiled and sat down across from me.

"Are you here yourself?" She asks me and I nod my head yes but I meant to say no. I really just wanted to be alone tonight. "How are you and what's her name? Kelley right?"

"Uh.... we're fine." I lie as I thought about Kelley. Honestly, I didn't feel bad about yelling at her earlier because quite frankly she deserved it. Things were different between the two of us and I was convinced that she no longer loved me.

"You don't sound so sure." Chloe says as she sets down her coffee and she stares at me with her blue eyes and I forced myself to look away.

"She's not the same." I finally say and I felt the sudden need to tell her everything. I needed someone to talk to who would actually listen. It's not like Alex would listen, I felt like I would offend her because Kelley and Alex were best friends and I didn't want both Alex and Kelley to turn their backs on me.

"I can't even remember the last time she told me she loved me. She's in a really bad place and she's pushing me away and I don't know what to do. It's like she doesn't even want me in the same room as her."

"I'm really sorry about all of that... if you need a place to stay you can count on me." She says with a small nervous smile and I smile back at the offer.

"Actually... I could use a place to stay tonight."

Chloe James is going to be one of the main characters of this story so you'll be reading a lot more about her! (Portrayed by Dianna Agron)

I also have something to tell you all that I think is pretty important. ALL LGBT romances deserve equality and the same respect everyone in the world has. It doesn't matter that I am straight because I will fight for anyones rights no matter who they are and no matter if they are in the LGBT community because equality is important to me. Yes I am straight, but the reason why I am so comfortable with this topic is because I have two good friends of mine who are gay and are incredibly happy together and they have all of my support. So, if you ever need someone to talk to about anything at all, please feel free to message me because I love talking to you all and I am always happy to listen to anything you guys have to say!

Don't be afraid to message me to just say hi! I would love to talk and get to know you all!!!!!
