When I got home, I went up to my room and turned on my PlayStation then I got online. I put on my headset and grabbed a controller.

"Nice you could join us, doomfist. We're getting our asses kicked," a voice said.

"Well, Phoenix, was kind of busy," I said as I jumped into the thick of things with my player. Call Of Duty is always the choice of the game when blowing off steam.

I met Phoenix a few months ago and she could hold her own, so we partnered up and became unstoppable.  Most of the time you meet those gamers that are annoying but she was pretty cool.

After demolishing everyone, we switched to another game and talked. It became our thing.

"You seem moody," she told me.

"Oh you know, dealing with an annoying girlfriend and school," I said as I played.

"I still don't know why you're with her," she said as we played.

"Glutton for punishment, I guess."

"Dinner," I heard dad yell.

"Well, got to go," I said as I logged off and went down to dinner.

We sat down and dad talked to me about school. It was the same thing every day. Typical questions parents ask their kids. Then mom started in on Roxy. I gave her a look.

"Kaden, don't roll your eyes at your mom," dad said as he ate.

"Then why must we have this discussion every day," I told him.

"Because I don't like her," mom told me bluntly.

I looked at her.

"It's bad enough she acts like queen shit during practice and games. I prefer my son not to date a twit," she added.

"I think I had a hand in this," dad said referring to him donating half his DNA.

"Apparently your commitment phobia skipped a generation, although it would have been nice if it hit Kaden. Maybe then we wouldn't be subjected to queen twit."

I didn't say much after that. I know mom was right. I just hated to admit she was right. Sort of like my dad.

We finished dinner and I worked on some homework. Then my phone started blowing up with Roxy messaging me. I shot her some text but I needed to keep my grades up.  Not only will my parents kick my ass if they fall but I get kicked off the team.

Once I finished, I checked through my phone and decided to check out social media.  Normally I don't check these things but I was bored and Phoenix wasn't online. Gaming isn't the same without her.

As I scrolled that's when I saw them. Pictures and comments. Comments on Roxy's pictures from other guys.  Hey, sexy.  Last night was fun.  Can't wait to meet up again. What the fuck?

I got off social media and decided to call her. Fuck this texting bullshit.  Her phone rang a couple of times before someone answered. All I could hear was a lot of moaning and screaming going on.

Then I heard her voice, "who is it, babe?!"

"Someone name Kaden!  Who the fuck is Kaden?!"

I heard a lot of yelling then the minute she said hello, my answer was, "it's over."  Click!

After that, she tried calling and messaging me. You know typical bullshit. Baby, it's not what it looks like. You got to believe me. Kaden! 

Yeah right. I scoffed at the ridiculous excuses. Because that's what they were. Ridiculous. People who cheat, need to get a clue. While you're having a good time, you're hurting someone, for what, to have fun or feel important?

Well, it's not fun for the other person. It's disrespectful and makes you feel like absolute shit. Plain and simple. Fuck it, I'm done.

I got ready for bed then blocked her stupid ass on my phone, deleted my social media accounts, deleted any pictures I had of her.  I was done with it all.  Three years I wasted on her. Three fucking years.

I went to bed and laid there. Tomorrow should be fun.

The next day I got up and got ready. Since there was no reason to meet up with Roxy, I took my time and actually took a shower. I came downstairs and dad looked at me, "what?"

I grabbed a plate and some food.

"Nice to know you didn't take your Febreze bath like you normally do," he smirked.

"Meh, though I changed it up a bit," I shrugged and ate.  I finished eating and drove to school. I met Harley and Jett as I was getting out of my car.

"You sick," Jett asked me.

"Nope."

"Where's Roxy," Harley asked.

"Hopefully taking a long walk off a short pier in shark infested water," I said shocking them.

Yeah, I was done. Roxy was nothing but a two-timing whore. Good thing I wrapped it.  Who the hell knows what she has?

I just know one thing, it was going to be a cold day in hell before I get mixed up with some girl again.



Looks like Kaden has hit a brick wall of sorts. Don't feel too bad. I have a feeling things are about to take a turn for him.
