Don't take it Personal💛|Brad Simpson

Part 2

CARA'S POV:
I watched the door as it slammed hardly, I could hear clear whimpers coming from the floors above me
C:Kylie?
I sighed as I walked towards the staircase, catching a glimpse of her appearance as she gasped for air through all the cries and anger.

I spoke no words as I placed myself in her presence. She knew I was there yet she still covered her palms over her eyes, leaving red marks planted across her cheeks.
C:Ky please talk
She looked up at me, you could barely see her eyes making it hard for me to understand what she was thinking

K:I don't know what's happening to me, how i can forgive him time and time again after every argument, every kiss he's shared with other women
C:You love him... you can't leave him as much as you want to because you love him! And that's not in any way your fault

She looked towards the floor, hugging into me tightly as I felt her warm tears run across my jumper, I hated seeing her like this
C:You love him but he's not good for you Ky, You can see what he does to you, what he's doing to you!

She sighed looking down at her phone, staring at the screen clearly thinking about something, I nodded before hearing sudden car beeps that echoed from outside my family's apartment, I smirked slightly looking down towards the vehicle seeing Riley and Kieran with my boyfriend jack perched slightly in the back seat.

I felt bad for jack, all this time I've spent doing work and fixing Blake a Kylie should have been spent with him, I missed him.
I smiled taking in every feature of his appearance that I could see from my view.

C:I don't want to leave you like this Ky but Riley and the guys are waiting for me, you can join us if you want I'm sure they wouldn't mind!
She was quick to reply gently wiping the tears from her cheekbones
K:No it's okay, I feel like I need some alone time for a minute anyways
I smiled slightly wrapping my arms around her shoulders.

Me and Kylie had been best friends since school, our conversations would always turn out pretty crazily gushing about our crushes till we ended up laughing for hours, one thing I loved about our friendship was that she was always there for me. All four of us, me, Ky, Riley and Laila had been inseparable since the first day we met! I missed us being all together, everything had changed since the boys came into the picture. Everything changed but the bond we had always stayed the same.

I looked back at Kylie clenching the front door slightly, I hated the way Blake made her feel, he had been bad news from the start but for some odd reason she fell for him, since then everyday she becomes more fond of him. It's like she can't live or breathe without him in her presence. But I know she's better than that, and that there's someone better for her...

BRADS POV:
I sat down sliding across a booth where my parents were sat, they were clearly occupied in their own conversation as our bar man jack was beginning to close down the bar.

We all turned to face the entrance, my eyes meeting with the girl I met earlier.
I smiled thinking about how much I liked her, she was different to all the other girls I see around here.
BM:Sorry love, we're closed
She looked disappointed sighing slightly, I could tell something bad had happened, her face all pale and worn.

B:It's okay Jack, she can stay
He seemed confused for a moment but let her in anyway, I stood up from my position and approached her slowly

B:Hey, Kylie isn't it?
She smiled warmly releasing her scarf that was wrapped tightly around her neck
K:Yeah, sorry I came at the wrong time, I just felt like getting away and this is the only place I know in the area.

I smiled guiding her towards a booth next to the window, it was raining outside which must of somewhat fascinated her since she was left there staring at it for a few minuets in silence

B:What happened?
She looked up at me in confusion at first but looked quite impressed noticing the fact that I could see that something was wrong.

K:It's Blake, he cheated on me... again
B:Again?
She nodded looking annoyed at herself
K:we've been together for 4 years now, everything was okay until he turned 18 and started drinking, the first time he cheated I was absolutely heartbroken! he swore that it would never happen again, and I believed him.

I looked up at her blank expression, she swallowed hardly
K:Since then its happened over 10 times, and each time the same thing happens. We fight, break up and then the next day I pretty much forgive him and we get back together.

B:It sounds tiring
She smirked slightly
K:It is, the trouble is every time it hurts a bit less, meaning that i just brush it off most of the time. I've been brainwashed into believing that it's normal!
I sighed moving closer towards her
B:No one should be making you feel this way, especially not the guy who claims to be your boyfriend!
She agreed tilting her head towards the floor slowly

K:Sometimes I don't think I'm good enough, each time the girl he cheats on me with is prettier, or has something that I can't give him.

B:Don't ever say that!
I gently rested my palm on hers, our eyes immediately connecting
B:Your beautiful, you really are
She smiled, her cheeks were blushing heavily
B:I'm being serious, you shouldn't let anyone tell you otherwise.
She looked up at me, I could see the shine in her eyes as they linked with mine. In that moment I felt something that I had never felt before.

K:You really mean that
Our faces moved closer towards each other, my hand moving to her cheek, wiping away her cold tears with my thumb.

I knew in my mind this wasn't the right thing to do, but I couldn't control my actions as my lips joined to hers.

It felt like time had stood still as I untwined her fingers with mine, a small smile escaping my lips as I pulled her closer towards my body
K:I...
Suddenly pulling away she looked stunned as i slowly opened my eyes
K:I'm sorry I can't do this
A small tear escaped her eyelids as she rushed towards the exit, I noticed the fear in her reaction as she glanced back at me. I had really messed up.
