Song for this chapter: Florence and the machine-Cosmic Love.
It was like that moment in a TV show where something unexpected happens and you have to pause the screen to take in what you just witnessed. Pretty little liars for instance when Ezra got shot or we thought he was A, I had to pause it on my phone to scream in frustration-to get out some built up anger at him. How could someone we thought was so lovable be so cruel.
My mind was left confused and betrayed at what my eyes were finding hard to believe was sat in front of them. My worse enemy with my greatest love.
It was something I thought I would never witness in all my years to live. Grayson knew about Olivia, he had seen her be a bitch to me himself with his very own two eyes. So to say I was betrayed would have been a understatement.
But like everything else, there had a perfectly explainable reason why Queen bitch was with Grayson.
But maybe I just didn't want to hear it today.
Here I was worrying every second about Grayson's well being and wanting to be by his side and yet he's here with...Olivia! Olivia out of all people, okay I maybe would have understood if he was with Rachel but Olivia? That's something I wasn't expecting.
''Hey, Libby. Everything okay?'' Blake started placing his hand on my shoulder comfortingly, turning himself around to look at what I was gawking at with an open mouth.
He furrowed his brows at Grayson and Olivia, him too knowing how bitchy Olivia was.
I sat myself back down slowly, not being able to look at Grayson anymore. The two blondes and Becca both looking at me with concern flushing their faces.
''Libby, is everything okay?'' Becca spoke, placing her tan hand on mine.
I needed air, quick.
''Uh, yeah. I'm just gonna get a breath of fresh air'' I spoke, quickly sliding out of the booth and laying my head low staring at the stained red and white tiles as I walked to the exit as quickly as I could manage.
When I hurriedly walked out of the exit, the cold air instantly hit me making shiver, chills pinching down my spine.
I took in deep breaths, not caring how harsh the wind was hitting off my bare skin. My anxiety was at a peak and I needed it to just fuck off.
Overthinking was something I had grown accustomed to, but that doesn't mean it gets any easier. If anything it gets worse, each time its chipping away at any normal part of me that is left until I become nothing but a star in the sky.
I wasn't left long to my overthinking before I heard the diner door rush open and the sound of heavy footsteps coming from behind me, approaching me quickly.
I sighed, wanting just ten more minutes to myself and my thoughts.
I turned around to face not one but three people, two of which who I'd rather not see right now.
There was Grayson, Blake and mighty bitch Olivia.
The three of them stood in their holy glory looking like a bunch of superheros with their godly looks and hair blowing in the wind not making them unattractive like i'm sure the wind was making me. But who's kidding, i'm a potato 24/7.
''Lib, just let me explain'' Grayson spoke, his voice husky and regretful? His whole face looked frowned, pale and frail.
I wanted badly to reach out to him, to hold his delicate face in my hands and kiss his plump lips like there was no tomorrow. But I couldn't. At least not until everything is explained.
