Ex: "so you still got no friends huh? You are that show off type."
I sigh as I delete the messages on my phone. All the conversations on every social media. I don't need toxic people like him in my life. After all he is stupid to just run off with a girl after she says she likes him. He doesn't even like her. How stupid of him to run to chase after glitter when he got his pot of gold. A girl that loves him to pieces. Guess I will never know but regret meeting him. I'm left with the question of what I did wrong. Why it had to happen to me.
"So how did your date go? Second date? Third date?" Alex asks sitting down on the spare sofa with his glass of orange juice. "It was good." I reply. "That's it? Just good?" He asks.
"He is really sweet and caring. I can't say for sure yet, Alex." I reply. "But you guys went on a second date already." He says with a pout.
"Meeting at the bookstore was not a date. It just happened." I say. Alex shifts in his seat as he pretends to not know how it happened. "You did that didn't you?" I ask frowning at him. "Um, yeah. I just hate to see you sad and suffer alone like this. Your ex boyfriend still provokes you. How more of this can you take?" He says. He do have a good point. Honestly, I'm too tired for anything. I feel scared of anything happening. I'm scared of going through those same feelings that are still engraved on my heart like a tattoo. Hard to get rid of.
"I'll think about it." I say getting up and leaving Alex alone in the living room. "How is your poetry book coming along?" He asks following behind me. "It's going okay. Can I please be alone for now?" I ask nicely. "That's the terrible idea ever." He says. I sigh knowing how he won't let me do that.
"Let's head out?" He says excited. "Nop." I reply. "Scared?" He asks. I nod.
"Wait, I'm getting a call." I say as I grab my phone to see the caller ID no one other than Tom. "Hello?" I speak.
"Y/n, I was wondering if you would like to um, join us for a movie night." He speaks stuttering. "YES WE WILL SEE YOU AT 7!!" Alex screams loud enough for Tom to hear. "Well um actually.." Before I could finish my sentence Alex takes my phone repeating what he said earlier nicely before hanging up.
I give a death glare towards him. "I know you hate me but y/n, I know that it hurts you every time your ex keeps rubbing on your face about his new girls or how he kissed another one." He says. I lower my head down to get the thoughts out of my head again. "You got a guy that is interested in you. I'm not saying to go date him right away bit at least to give it a chance. Okay?" He states.
"Sure. I will give it a try." I say.
"Oh you guys made it!" Tom says excited as he greets me and Alex at the door. His friend Harrison who introduced himself sat all comfortable on the sofa. I walk towards the single sofa but Alex pushes towards the one next to Tom.
The movie started to play and everyone got silent. My mind wandered off to what Alex said earlier. Hanging out with Tom would help me get over my ex but would I feel good? Would I feel happy? Would I be loved for real?
Certain scenes started to trigger me but I tried my best not to get to me. Too late.
I excuse myself and walk into the kitchen. "Y/n you alright?" Tom says behind me. "Ye- yeah. I'm.. I.. I'm fine." I say as I try to catch my breath. "Here." He says handing me a glass of water.
Part 4?
