Life of a Star (Greyson Chance FF)

FLASH 48-Most Painful Lie

A/N: A really really really short chapter :)

Those words shook her whole world. She obviously had no choice. It had something to do with their lives; Greyson and the baby. And she would do anything to protect whom she loves. Even if it reaches out of the boundary. So here she is, standing all alone dressed in her favorite baby blue dress she got as a gift when she turned twenty, staring at the guy inside the bubble tea shop disguised as a tanned Asian wearing a grey jacket with his hoodie on. He’s still handsome even if he had applied something dark on his skin, she thought.

She saw him raising a phone from his pocket and pressing it on his cheek. He had received her call.

“Greyson?”

“I’m here. Five minutes advance so you won’t curse my name for how many times.”

She couldn’t help but let out a small giggle, “That’s great. I’ll be coming in.” and she finally ended it with a hit on the red button. The small happiness faded away once she saw him getting her attention, looking very happy. Guilt took over her. She doesn’t want to hurt him and neither did she want him to die.

She went over at his place and sat on one of the chairs facing him directly. Belle smiled weakly at him and he gladly returned a genuine one. It pained a lot seeing he was really happy because he had waited for an opportunity and his prayers were heard. And it would be even more painful for her to see his reaction later. Right now, she wanted everything to come to an end so that it wouldn’t really hurt if things would go quickly.

Sucking a deep amount of cold air and breathing it out in a matter of seconds, she finally spoke, “Let’s break up.”

“Stop using that prank. It’s old.” He commented, laughing in a very forced manner.

“I’m not kidding.”

“You can’t fool me with a joke. What drink do—“

“I told you I’m breaking up with you.” She said in a cold, stern and calm way.

Greyson pulled the right corner of his lips into a teasing smile, “Cool prank. Okay, did you got your compliment now? Yes. So let’s get back to the thing you want to order.”

“Greyson how many times do I have to tell you this? Belle. Clint. Is. Breaking. Up. With. You. No matter how hard it is to believe.”

“What kind of shit is this, Belle?”

“This shit is the truth. I’m tired of us.”

“We just dated for a few weeks and now you’re telling me you’re tired of this?”

“You see, I’m tired of drama and games. Greyson I badly need a commitment with a man. And sadly, that is not you.”

“But you told me—“

“I’m sorry. Think of all we did as a prank or a trap perhaps. A very mischievous trap you fell into.”

He stared at her, dumbfounded with her words and stopped sipping on his chocolate-flavored bubble tea. “I don’t believe you.”

“Well now you have to.”

He looked away and shook his head rapidly. “I-I don’t…u-understand. Why the hell is this happening?”

“This is tiring, Greyson. I’m getting bored of this game.” She flashed a sweet smile yet forced. She couldn’t bear seeing him breakdown in front of her. So she had to leave as soon as possible. She rose from her spot and turned her back on him but later felt the tight grip on her wrist before she could even walk away.

“Did you love me, Belle? D-did you?”

“…no.”

She ran as fast as she could, her sight getting a bit blurry because of tears and quickly got in her car and left. Meanwhile, Greyson was still in the shop, sitting all alone and spacing out. They were about to close. But he couldn’t move his body which was still in shock. Without knowing, tears made their way to escape from his eyes and streamed down his cheeks.
