Shattered//Jack Silvagni

Chapter 4

"18 year old newcomer model Lyla Rossi has shocked all as she's seen leaving House Of Yes club, New York in the early hours of this morning with an unknown stranger. The Australian, good-girl styled model who is known for her relationship with handsome Australian Footballer, Jack Silvagni has certainly stirred the pot with rumours saying that Jack and Lylas relationship is officially over after accusingly, Lyla used Jacks famous family name to find fame in Australia to boost her career to now run of to the states with new boyfriend who has yet to be named. The picture below shows the two extremely close and comfy last night,

as they partied hard to the early hours of the morning before leaving in the unknown mans car-"
"That's enough" I whimper as a tear falls slowly down my cheek as I quickly grab the remote and turn the TV off with no hesitation.
"What were you thinking Lyla?! Going out into an unknown city, underaged drinking, cheating on Jack?!-"
" I did not cheat on Jack! Is that seriously how you see me?! As some slut that goes around and kisses different boys while I'm in a bloody incredible relationship?! I didn't kiss anybody! I don't even know who that guy is, and I sure as hell didn't leave in his car! It's just the press making up lies Pam, can't you see that?!" I yell out desperately.
"Why did you go Ly? This is so unlike you. Do you have any idea what this will do to your career? The press are having a field day!" Pam screeches while shaking her head disapprovingly. But as I open my mouth to muster an apology my phone begins to ring the all to familiar tone of the Carlton theme song as Jack calls, his contract photo making tears spring from my eyes as I stare at it in pain. His wide brown eyes are staring happily into the lens with a wide, crooked smile on his face as he holds my hips tightly as I stare up at him lovingly with his Carlton jumper on at the MCG after Carlton owned Collingwood. It was where he took me for our first date, no surprises there. "You better answer that" Pam speaks. "I'm extremely disappointed in you Lyla" she whispers sadly as she walks out the door of my apartment as my tears start to flow like streams and the sound of drums pound in my ears as nervous butterflies erupt in my stomach. I know she's right, I have to do this, I have to make things right I think to myself. He'll believe me, won't he? I slowly pick up the phone with shaking fingers and swipe the screen to activate the call. It was silent for a good 10 seconds, the only sound was my silent sobs that muffled the call.
"What have you done?" Jack questioned his voice cracking towards the end. "You leave to another country and instantly replace me with another guy?! Well who is he, huh? Is he better then me?! Does he do you better then me is that it?!" He screams through the phone, I can hear his been crying. "Jack please-just let me explain! Please!" I cry out desperately.
"No Ly, no! How could you do this to us? We had everything and you just through it away!"
"I was jealous!" I screech. "I called you earlier after a long day of work trying to provide for us and another girls answers your phone Jack! A drunk girl! And you called her baby! What was I meant to think?! God I don't even know what to think now! I was so mad and angry Jack, I didn't know what I was doing! I just felt so shattered knowing another girl was there with you like I should be! This long distance is killing me! I never touched him, I swear! I never got in his car, I never left with him I just went straight home! I wanted to forget about how outraged and jealous I felt. I'm sorry, I just missed you so much that I tried to find something that could numb that pain I feel when I'm not with you while I'm away." I blubbered, my voice falling apart.
"And how am I supposed to trust you? I love you so much Ly, but I-.
"I love you too! I interrupt desperately. Please just believe me, I need to you believe me" I sob."Just tell me you'll believe me and that everything will be ok." I sob loudly, not bothering to keep quiet now.
"I have to go Ly. Just know I-I, I miss us. I miss how we used to be and what we had before we became this shattered mess. Oh and by the way, that 'girls' my older cousin, Alice remember? She used to call me baby as a joke when we were younger all the time, and as we got older I started playing around and giving it back to her! It was a joke Ly, a family joke! She came to our home drunk because she had nowhere else to go after her boyfriend kicked her out". And with that he hung up, he left. Guilt and pain rushed through my body and it was there and then I felt myself shatter and I feel apart.
