Bad Intentions

{39} His & Hers

"In too deep, can't think about giving it up,
But I never knew love would feel like a heart attack.
If I knew I'd feel like this man
It's killing me, swear I never cried so much'.
Cause I never knew love would hurt this fuckin' bad
The worst pain that I ever had."
-Heart Attack, Trey Songz

I think time was slower knowing that Scott and I weren't on the same page anymore. The days were longer and the nights were lonelier. I spent most my time at home and if I wasn't home, I was at school.

Ava and Isla would try and talk to me but I'd just avoid them, the mere thought about talking to them of what happened and how I feel made me uncomfortable and broken all over again. During school time, if I saw Scott in the hallways, my entire body would shut down and close itself off it everyone. It broke me even more when I saw the pained look in his blue eyes.

God, they looked so cold to me now.

After school, I drove straight to Anastasia because she told me she had more information. Some part of me didn't want to hear anymore about Celia's baby but the other wanted to do what I came for on the beginning. To get my revenge.

I got distracted from doing what I was planning on doing. I allowed my feelings to mess with my plans and now I was in a down spiral. So the only way to not hit rock bottom was to do what I came for. And that was to take away Celia's crown.

"I've been searching records and I think when Celia had no one left to turn to, she went to the streets. Do you remember Andrew, her drug dealer cousin that kicked out of school?"

"Yeah. He was fucking scary." I muttered, shivering. "Celia, at her parties, would have him supply sometimes with drugs. It was horrible. She wouldn't stop even when I told her to."

"Well, Andrew moved to England many months after and lost all contact with family. Until..."

"Until Celia found him again." I finished off and she nodded.

"Yep. Remember how my sister used to do drugs before she got pregnant?" Anastasia never spoke about her sister so this poked my curiosity and I nodded in interest. "Well, it was Andrew who supplied her and when she went through withdrawl, he still kept in contact with her. Because, plot twist, he was the baby daddy."

"No fucking way." I gasped as my eyes widened in shock.

Anastasia nodded, no emotion toward what she told me. "Yeah. My sister's baby was Celia's nephew."

"He was the druggie boyfriend that she ran away with when she was 14?" Ana again nodded silently as I processed this information. "So she's like 17 now and he's 20."

"Uhuh. When she came back, she was 16 and pregnant and he was nowhere to be seen so she stuck around until he messaged her one night and told her that he had a house in England and wanted her to move in."

"I'm guessing that she did."

"Yep. I didn't even know until the next morning when I found a note explaining everything."

"You're still in contact with her?"

Anastasia laughed and grinned at me. "Of course. Who do you think my sources came from?"
