Where Are You Now?

Chapter 3

Zion

"The fuck you mean PrettyMuch broke up?!"

Edwin shook his head and looked at Brandon to continue talking.

"Listen I'm disrespectful Brandon you can fill him in," Ed said.

"Nah nah you can tell me. Brandon gonna sugar coat it," I replied.

"He's right," Jewel laughed.

"It was months after you got shot. They didn't want to wait the whole year. They wanted to move on and they left. Simple," Edwin said shrugging his shoulders.

I crunched my eyebrows and nodded. It hurt but it's understandable I guess. But Prettymuch could've went on. For our fans.

"I already called my family," I said clearing my throat.

"How did Elom react?" Rose asked.

"He cried like a bitch and I made fun of him for it then he cursed me out for laughing and hung up," I laughed.

"That sounds accurate," Brandon laughed shaking his head.

"Jewel," I said and she met eye contact with me. "Let's go for a walk."

She stared at me and nodded glancing over at Edwin who had a serious expression. Edwin looked down and I internally laughed. Of course something was up.

I got to my feet and we headed towards the door. I opened the door and let her walk through. I closed it behind me and we headed down the street.

It was silent for a while. I couldn't bring myself to say anything. What do you say after being in a coma for a year and your fiancée left the ring in your pocket?

"How're you feeling?" She asked putting her hands in her pockets.

"Weird. I feel healthy but I feel lost. It's been a year and I feel disconnected. Brandon and Rose had a baby, PrettyMuch broke up and you left the ring in my pocket. I woke up as if everything was yesterday so," I replied kind of coldly.

I heard her breathing speed up and I kind of felt bad. But it was reality.

"I'm sorry Zion-"

"For what? Being in a coma or leaving the ring thinking I was never gonna wake up?" I asked.

We approached an empty park and we sat on the grass. She looked away from me and sighed.

"You can't hold that against me-"

"You gave up Jewel-"

"You didn't know what it was like Zion! Your ass was dead and I had to live with it! You wouldn't understand what I went through I-" she spat and covered her mouth as her voice began cracking.

"I would've at least waited the full year-"

"You don't know that. And you would never know that Caleb. You proposed to me and then fell in a coma. I went home to an empty bed. I went home and kept seeing you everywhere and hearing your voice. I went insane," she cried shaking her leg.
