V I K T O R I A

He's been calling me for 2 months, since our break up. I can't help but feel bad when I rejected his marriage proposal.

I reach out for my pillow, and cry again for the second time today.

This crying obssession is not healthy at all, I thought.

Maybe if I wasn't such a bitch, we would already be planning our wedding.

Maybe if I didn't reject his proposal, I would be Mrs.Viktoria Irwin soon.

Or was his proposal just a stunt he pulled on me so I can stay?

My phone rings again, as I reach for it on the bedside table, clearly not bothering to check the personon the caller I.D.

"Hello?" I ask through the phone, my pillow muffling my voice.

"H-hi," Ashton speaks, sniffling.

"O-oh, hi." I reply, my tears brimming my eyes again as I speak.

"I miss you so much, V. Come over, please?" He mumbles.

"I'm on my way," I mumble, wiping my tear-stained eyes.

I miss you too, so much.

I sniff again, hanging up while wiping my tears away and grabbing my car keys, slipping on a jacket and a pair of flip-flops.

My drive to our house consisted of me swearing, tears, and gripping tightly on the steering wheel.

I quickly push the door open and fastly jog to our room.

Our room.

It felt unreal, infact, too unreal for me that I had to pinch myself.

Only 2 months ago, we were sharing lovely memories, and here we are again, doing the opposite.

I push the door open, to see him against the end of the bed, his face buried in his hands.

I sit beside him and tilt his chin up, his eyes meeting mine.

"I'm sorry if I really messed things up, Viktoria. I really am." He mumbles, looking away.

I was tired, and my eyes felt heavy from crying. I lay my head on his shoulder, not caring if he would or wouldn't budge. All I ever cared about at the moment was I loved Ashton, and I always will.

"I love you," I mutter, drifting off into oblivion beside my rock, who keeps me strong.

I hear him mumble an "I love you more," before I completely doze off.
