Danielle's pov::
Ok so once I got back to my house I noticed that Josh was still here while everybody was gone. I walked in with Josh following me and closing the door behind as I was putting away my winter jacket,scarf and boots and hats and mittens.
I put on my slides and put my sunglasses on the living room coffee table. I went and made me some broccoli and cheese soup with white grape wine.
Uce- are you ok now danielle?

I turned to him and smiled

DE- I'm fine Josh

Uce- what are you making?

DE- my most favorite soup ever with some wine.

Uce- that sounds delicious what kind of wine.

DE- green grape which is white wine

He nodded

Once the soup was done I grabbed 2 bowls and spoons and wine glasses. I put some soup in each bowl then grabbed some saltien crackers and opened them the crushed some in my soup and mixed it. I opened the wine and poured some in the glasses then handed 1 over to him and gave a bowl to him as I put the crackers in the middle. I grabbed my phone and sat down and we ate as I kept getting messages from damon making me frustrated.
I ignored them and looked thru my phone til I spotted a picture of Derek with a girl looking happy and alive making me turn my phone off and drank my glass of wine then poured more.
Uce- you ok danielle? You look like you saw a ghost

DE- I'm fine Josh, it's just saw something heart broken on social media that's all.

He nodded as I kept eating my soup til I heard my phone buzzing and saw that it was a unknown number so I went to answer it somewhere private.
I closed the door
DE- I know it's you Derek

DH- how?

I took a deep breathe then exhaled as tears ran down my face.

DE- who's the lucky lady?

I went to grab the bottle of wine from the counter and took it to my bedroom with me as I was shutting the door behind me.

DH- ...my girlfriend

I took a sip of the wine then sat on the bed.

DE- how long Derek?

DH- 3 weeks

My heart just broke into pieces as tears ran down my face.

DE- why didn't you tell me

DH- *sighs* cause you looked happy and I didn't want to change that.

DE- I'm not happy, I've been crying since the funeral. I'm hiding my true feelings cause it wouldn't help for me to cry everyday not talking to everyone. I've changed my look and tried soo hard to move on but guess what?...I can't!! I can't because I'm busy thinking about that should be me in that coffin instead of you.* I threw the bottle at the wall making it shatter*

I hung up and rubbed my hands on my face with tears running down. Josh came running in my room as I layed on my bed laying on my back looking at the ceiling.
Uce- what's wrong danielle?

DE- im..fine *voice cracked*

Then my phone started buzzing again and saw that it was the same unknown phone number which was Derek. I hung up and turned off my phone then went to change into my pjs and put my hair in a bun. I went to pick up the pieces of glass and went to throw them away.
I went to finish my soup then put the dishes in the sink then headed upstairs to see my phone ringing and saw that it was Derek again. I sighed then answered it as I sat on my bed.
DE- yeah? *not in the mood*

DH- what was that noise in the background before you hung up?

DE- me throwing a wine bottle at the wall *not in the mood*

DH- why?

DE- how about you live your fake life with your new bae and dont worry about me cause it seems like you already forgot about me. Dont call me again Tyler

I hung up and sighed then put my phone on the charger and climbed into bed after I took off my makeup.I closed my eyes til Josh walked over and said goodbye because he was going to leave but I grabbed his arm and asked him to stay.
He climbed underneath the covers and hugged me as I felt safe being in jey's arms again. I dated Derek cause I was heart broken from jey cause it felt like he was scared of me and that he couldn't love me again. 
DE- I'm sorry Tarzan *crying to sleep*

I heard him say that he was sorry for letting me go.
