Ring. Ring. Ring.

"Your call has been forwarded..." Voicemail. Still no answer. I click the red button to hang up.

I look over to my boyfriend, who looks just as confused as me. "You try calling him." I nudge Ferg.

"Okay." He shrugs. After he dials, it rings a few times. Starting to wonder if he's just not on his phone.

"Hello?" My brother finally decides to answer his cell phone after 4 attempts of me calling him.

"Hey Colbs, how's it going?" Fergal plants a cheeky smile on his face.

I hear a chuckle through the phone, and feel an adjusted attitude in my brother. "Ferg! What's up cutie? What are you doing?"

I rip the phone out of Fergal's hand and put it on speaker. "He's with me you dumbass!"

"Who is this?" He questions in a confused tone.

Is he being serious? I drop my mouth quite literally to the ground. As if I wasn't mad enough already. "It's your sister, Colby!"

Ferg releases a laugh that he was so desperately trying to hold in. My eyes pierce into his as I shake my head back and fourth.

"What do you want?" My asshole of a brother decides to ask.

"First of all, thanks for answering my calls douchebag. Secondly, tell your dumbass of a friend to back off." I feel my blood boiling.

"Who?" Colby says shortly.

This conversation is hair pulling. I feel like I'm talking to a two year old. "Mike!" I exclaim.

Yes, Mike and I dated. Most people know him as EC3. I know him as my slithering snake ex-boyfriend.

"I don't know what the fuck you're talking about Ariella." He sheds a bit of annoyance in his tone. But quite honestly I don't give a fuck. I'm ten times more annoyed than him.

He's been like this towards me ever since Fergal and I started dating. Of course they are cool, but he has to act like I'm the damn spawn of Satan.

"He has been commenting on my posts, threatening Fergal. He's DMed me 10 times within the past three days. And now fans are giving me hate because of him..." I huff out. This makes me wanna pull my hair out.

I hear Colby sigh on the other end. "Sis, I don't know what you want me to do. Did you try talking to him?"

"I'm not talking to him. I told him to leave me alone but he won't listen. You're his friend, he will listen to you." I beg with my whiny voice shedding through.

"He was your boyfriend before he was my friend...I'm closer to Fergal than Mike, he's not gonna listen to me either." Colbs brings up a good point.

I sigh my frustrations from my body. More and more pressure is fueling through my veins, and Fergal looks like he can relate. He's being quiet so I decide to nudge him.

He scrunches his brows inwards so I motion to the phone with my eyes. Ferg chews on his bottom lip as he grabs the phone out of my hand.

"Colby, it'd mean a lot if you talked to him. He respects you so he will at least listen to you a little more than he is listening to us." My boyfriend struggles to find the words.

A silence draws in the air. Thankfully, Colby decides to speak up. "Alright. I'll try and say something. I don't know if it'll work though so I can't guarantee anything." He tells us.

"That's better than nothing. Thanks so much bud, I really appreciate it." Fergal says with a growing smile.

"Anything for you, Ferg." Colby replies back.

I roll my eyes with a deep mouth drop. "Excuse me. What about me Colby? You know.. your sister!" I yell at him. I swear sometimes I think Fergal is my brothers boyfriend and not mine.

"Ehh." He says. "Just kidding sis." Colby chuckles.

Fergal laughs along with my brother. I finally release a grin as I see my boyfriends reaction. He's so damn cute. His smile makes my heart warm. To see him happy and not freaking out is all that matters to me.

"Thank you Colbs. I'll talk to you later. Love you."

"Love you too Ari." We both say bye at the same time before I end the call.

I hope Mike listens to Colby. I'm really not trying to go through anymore stress than I need to be.

My eyes move from the countertop to Fergal. He is watching me diligently. I place my hand on the side of his face as I pull him closer to me. "I love you so much." I tell him before giving him a peck on his soft lips.

He blushes cheekily as a quiet chuckle escapes his mouth. "I love you too."

I know this is short but I wanted to do a little chapter in between the IG posts. I'm thinking about doing this every so often on this story. What do you guys think? Should I do just IG posts or should I add short chapters in between of some of the posts? Let me know guys! -S
