Broken

Ch.20 Incomplete

~Ari's POV~

Wes had been gone for three months, I missed him terribly. He didn't have time to visit me in those three months but somehow we managed to stay together. I finally got a job at a little clothes shop about ten minutes from the apartment. Bella was going to kindergarten, and she loved school.

"Bella! Are you doing your homework?" I said walking in through the front door after a long day at work. "Yes she is!" Cassidy said from the kitchen, Cassidy is a babysitter I hired. I was going to school and working so I couldn't watch Bella like I wanted to.

"Hi Cassidy, thanks for watching her!" She smiled and I handed her a hindered dollar bill, she walked out of the apartment. I turned on the tv and went to one of those celebrity gossip shows (they are funny).

"Bella are you hungry?" I asked her smiling. "No Cassidy already fed me, alright well go into your room and get into bed I will be there in five minutes to tuck you in." She smiled and skipped off to her room. I was walking away towards her room when I heard Wes's name on the tv.

"Wesley Stromberg was seen after going clubbing with a blonde kissing her. Who is this mysterious girl? Does Wes have a girlfriend?" I stopped dead in my tracks when I heard that. My heart shattered into a billion pieces.

Not my boyfriend, not my Wes he would never cheat on me. He loves me, right? I ran into Bella's room trying to hold it together, I tucked her in tight and gave her a kiss on the forehead, we said our goodnights and I shut her light off and closed her door.

I ran too my room and shut the door behind me, sliding down the door as tears fell from my eyes. I pulled out my phone and quickly dialed Wes's number. After a few rings he finally picked up, the tears continued to fall.

"Hey babe!" I heard his cheery voice on the other line making me cry more. "Hi," it came out hoarse and like a squeak. "Ari, are you okay?" He sounded concerned and then anger took over me.

"No I'm not okay, I was watching tv and then you appeared and you were kissing some blonde bitch after clubbing!" The line was silent when I yelled it into the phone. "Baby, I'm s-" "Save it Wes, I really thought you loved me and then you go and do this!"

"I do love you, to the moon and back. I was drunk, it was a mistake I only have my eye on one girl and that's you.." "I'm done, I need a break from you Wes.." "N-No please don't do that, Ari I love you I'm sorry.." His voice sounded weak and it cracked.

"I love you so much, but all I think about is what you did to me...I'm sorry I need a break you will be back in two months and we will figure it out...I have to go Wes goodbye." "Okay...Call me if you need anything, I love you." He sounded so broken I clicked end and then crumbled.

Wes and I were done, what was I going to do? What he did was wrong he needs to realize that but, how was I going to get used to not waking up to his messages. Or skyping with him when he wasn't busy, I needed him in my life but I couldn't trust him.

I pulled myself off the floor after crying for a few hours and I through on some sweats and crawled into bed. I fell asleep but was soon awoken by a terrible dream. It was of Wes and that girl kissing, and I was standing right there but he was just smiling at me.

I couldn't breathe, I felt like was suffocating. I did not need anxiety right now, I grabbed my inhaler and used it. I hadn't used it in like six months. I crawled back into bed and attempted to fall asleep again.

*2 Months Later*

I woke up to three text messages from: Babe <3: Good Morning gorgeous! Babe <3: Have a great day at work. Babe <3: Can't wait to see you tonight ;) I chuckled at the text messages.
