Stuck In Reverse (#wattys2018)

(14) "I hate you!"

Remember when I said I was gonna out up anything I like here??

This is one of them and it's special, seeing as it's a Nigerian song and I'm Nigerian.

LEAH

My hair flew in all directions as I looked out of the window, arms folded across my chest, eyes blazing red and wishing I could get a knife to stab the handsome jerk that was driving beside me.

How could he?!

It wasn't like he didn't know I had a boyfriend so why the hell did he choose to embarrass me in front of Drake?

Most of all, why did he suddenly go all crazy on my poor and innocent boyfriend?

I could never forgive him if Drake decided to break up with me because my 'driver' harassed him.

"Are you alright?" I heard a quiet and guilty voice ask, and a memory washed over me, I was in his position when we were coming but hey!

His crime was much more worse than mine could ever be!

"I hate you." I spoke the first thing that came to my mind, still looking out the window.

A long pause and a soft sigh.

"I know..." He replied and I turned to look at him in surprise.

His face hid all emotions but his eyes said it all, he was angry.

At me or at himself, I didn't know.

I was sure hundred percent it was anger at me though.

I scoffed.

How dare he get angry?
When he was the villain here?
He was such a jerk!

"I really really hate you." I muttered and watched his knuckles turn white from the death grip he gave the steering wheel, his eyes wild and dark with anger.

"You seem to always say your mind.." He muttered and I rolled my eyes.

"Yes.. And I'm saying I really hate you, from my heart..." I looked out the window again only to turn back to him the next second.

"How could you! How could you do that to Drake! You just had to embarrass him??!" I exploded, throwing my hands up in frustration.

I know I had wished him to come and whisk me away but now, I was thinking that was very stupid of me.

How could I think of a jerk like him? How could I care about how he felt?? When he didn't do the same?

I sighed and looked away as he finally parked in front of a wedding shopping store.

I could never feel anything for him, he wasn't worth it.

I didn't know why but I felt really sad and just wanted to run away and cry.

I hated him for making me feel like this. Well, it was never going to happen again, never was I going to think about him or even try to get to know him.

He was nothing but a scumbag and I was really disappointed.

A knock on my window jerked me forcefully out of my reverie and I looked up at Killian who opened my door and knelt on the floor beside me.

I made sure to glare all my hatred at him before looking away.

He sighed and ran his hands through his hair.
