Threats (Sequel to 'Feelings')

[5] It Should've Stayed In The Past

Andy's P.O.V.
I had called Amanda earlier today. She was having a great time at the university as far as I knew. So I felt a little bad for ruining that with my problems again, but she insisted it was bo problem. "Please don't stress too much about her. You moved houses she won't find you" she had said, but that wasn't my only problem with the matter. The other problem was that I still believed Charlotte. I still felt responsible for what happened all those years ago, it had torn me apart for years afyer it happened, but I got over it. At least I thought I did. The truth was I really didn't know it would happen. I took out my phone and searched her name. She sent another dm: "I know you read my message. Care to reply maybe?" she was still as rude as I remembered. I decided to reply anyway.

Andy: It's been 9 years. Please don't

Charlotte: So you are alive after all

Andy: What do you want me to say? I already said I'm sorry I really am. But I can't change what happened
Charlotte: I already told you I don't want your filthy apologies. I simply want you to suffer. You owe it to me
Andy: I don't. What happened is not my fault!
Charlotte: Keep telling yourself that. We both know the truth
Andy: I don't care. It happened years ago. Please, let it go
Charlotte: Not untill you pay for your actions. I will come after you and your precious Rye

I threw my phone across the room in frustration and despair. What the hell was I going to do? Rye came over to me. He looked at me, then at my phone and then at me again. "What happened?" he asked. "Nothing don't worry about it" I mumbled. "Andy, don't lie to me. What's wrong" he said sitting down next to me. I couldn't tell him. I had to come up with an excuse, quick. "I let the hate get to me a little bit" I lied. Rye's expression immediatly softened. He scooted closer to me and stroked my hair slightly. "Are they still bothering you? Don't listen to them Andy. To me, you are perfect you know that right" I nodded. He pecked my lips and gave me a hug. "If you feel down, you cab always come to me" he comforted me. I felt bad for lying to Rye, but what would he think of me if he knew the truth?
