This Could Be Us✔

Chapter 20

Lilly's POV

I wake up at around 12 the next morning with extreme pain. I look over and see Dom sleeping, snoring lightly. I run to the bathroom and close the door. Guess who decided to pay me a visit today? My period! Ugh, now this just destroys my hustle, and all of my other plans. Today I am supposed to do another #AskSuperwomanLive. Which can be relaxing, but also stressful. I get off the toilet and get ready, which as per usual takes an hour. When I'm done, I go downstairs and see Dom pouring himself coffee.  He greets me with a kiss on the cheek.

Dom: Hey baby.

Me: Hi Dom, I reply crankily.

Dom: Darling, what's wrong?

Me: It's that time of the month. *rolls eyes*

Dom: Oh, I'm sorry, baby.

Me: Hey, can you like be the best person ever and go to the store and buy me a bunch of chocolate.

Dom: Of course, baby.

He embraces me and then chugs his coffee. Then like the amazing boyfriend he is, he sits inside his car and drives to the nearest grocery store to go get me chocolate. I watch some Jane while I wait. 2 hours later when he still hasn't come back or called or texted, I start to get worried. I call him and text him but he dosen't respond. I Uber it, because I'm so not in the mood to drive. Once the Uber arrives at Walmart, I get out of the car and see a cute guy making out with some girl. Aw, how sweet, I thought to myself. Then I squint and see that that guy is Dom. And that the girl he's making out with is Bethany Mota. God, how I hate her so much. She was always trying to get back at me for dating Dom. This mothereffer. I walk to where they're standing, or should I say sucking faces. 

Me: Oh, hey Dominic. Thanks for getting those chocolates for me.

Dom stops kissing her and looks at me, and then his eyes go wide. He looks like he just saw a ghost. 

Dom: B-b-b babe. I can explain.

Bethany looks over and smirks.

Me: Looks like you already explained everything.

I walk away before he can see tears that start to roll down my cheeks. I get into the Uber and go home. When the Uber pulls up into the driveway, I thank him and run upstairs and lock myself in the bathroom and start crying. I cry and cry and cry. At some point Dom must've come home, because he runs upstairs and starts pounding on the door.

Dom: Lilly, I can explain. Please open up!

Me: LEAVE ME ALONE! 

Dom: LILLY OPEN THE FREAKING DOOR! YOU CAN'T HIDE IN THERE FOREVER!

Me: Watch me.

And right when I thought Dom was going to fight for me, he gave up and left me alone. Which then made me cry even more because I realized how stupid I've been. I kept beating myself up over and over again. It was like he took my heart out and shattered it into a million pieces. I couldn't believe how stupid I was to fall for him. Eventually, I stopped crying because my heart hurt too much. I got up off the floor because my butt was numb. I went downstairs and chugged soem water. I saw Dom sitting on the couch with a glass filled with Tequila in his hand. He saw me and stood up.

Dom: Can I please explain what happened?

Me: Oh, I've already seen enough today. And I don't even wanna hear your lies.

Dom: Please.

Me: Alright, go. What's your sob story?

So he went on into this whole story of his relationship with Bethany in the past. When he finished he broke down. My heart broke all over again, but I couldn't let him know that. Tears started pooling at the edges of my eyes. And then I grabbed him by his collar and leaned in and kissed him. This kiss was filled with anger and power. We eventually started making out and we were crying at the same time. Finally, I broke the kiss off. And then I realized something. No matter, what Dom would ever do to me, I will always love this man. He is truly the love of my life. But for my sake, I had to stop kissing him. We decided to give each other some space for at least a week. Dom left immediately. Then I ran upstairs and listened to sad music and cried myself to sleep.

Hi guys! Sorry for not updating as much this week! I just needed a mental health day and also I am about to move so I've been packing. Also writing this chapter broke my heart. Another thing I want to address is that recently Yousef's dog, Dollar has died. It breaks my heart, but I truly believe that Dollar is in a much better place, where he can rest. Rip Dollar, we will miss you. On a much sweeter note, don't forget to comment and vote for more! Also be on the lookout for Chapters 21, 22, & 23!
