Rachel's POV--
About a week and a half has gone by since I left Asher and Macy at the airport. Even though Macy made us promise that we would show no PDA, there was no way I was not kissing that hot man of mine before I left for a month. I'm already way over the multiple eye rolls she gave me the whole time anyways.
I do have to admit that settling back into my home here is weird considering I have been at Macy's for so long already. My parents were and still are grateful that I was able to come back here on such short notice. My brother, on the other hand, feels a little differently than they do. When I saw him the day after I arrived, he immediatly told me that I should have stayed in the US. I tried to explain to him that I couldn't have stayed while my older brother is in the hospital, but he kept telling me that he feels bad that I left my vacation to come back. It doesn't really matter how he feels though because I'm here and will be for a couple more weeks.
"Sweetie, would you like to join us for dinner tonight? After we go see Greg, your dad and I thought we could all go something to eat. Maybe, invite Jared and his fia-girlfriend as well?" My mom asks, sitting down at the end of my bed as I close up my laptop to push aside.
"Um, sure. I would love to. Will I be able to have a few minutes before we leave? I was hoping to skype Asher since he's already up early for work."
"Of course. We can leave once you're done. Tell him I say hello," she gives me a kiss on the top of my head, then makes her way out of my room.
"Will do, mom."
As soon as she leaves, I grab my laptop once again and position it in front of me. I was actually already in the middle of talkng to Asher when she walked in. I guess that what I get for not keeping my door locked.
"Hey, there you are. I thought I lost you," Asher says, smiling into his webcam.
"Oh, no. Sorry about that. My mom just kind of walked in. She's with my dad downstairs now, so we should be good. I miss you so much though."
"I miss you too, babe," As he speaks, I can see his smile fading away.
"Asher, is something wrong?"
He moves away from his computer, ending up completely out of view. Seconds later, I see him come back and take a seat in his chair again.
"She texted me last night saying that she's ready to talk now," Asher holds up his phone, allowing me to see Amy's actual text message for myself. Even though I know he wouldn't do anything with her anymore, I am afraid when they see each other, she might pull something.
"I'm assuming you're going to go see her then?" He just simply nods his head.
"I'm going to have to. I just don't know how it is going to go, considering she and I have been together for so long," Hearing that makes me slightly upset. "Oh no. You know her and I's breakup has been coming for a while now. You were just the one who helped me realize it."
"I know, I know. Well, text me and let me know how it goes then I have to go see Greg and have dinner with the family. I will talk to you later," I blow him a small kiss. "Oh and my mom says hello."
"Tell her I say hi back," Doing the same as me, he blows me a kiss as well. "Bye, babe."
"Bye, love."
Asher's POV--
The day at work goes by way too quickly, much quicker than I would have liked. Meeting up with Amy tonight is something I am definitely not look forward to and making me slightly nervous. Seeing each other can go kind of well or extremely horrible. Of course I am hoping for the best but always expecting the worst.
"All right, man. I will see you tomorrow," Going over to Kyle, I pat him a couple times on the back before heading over to the door.
"Oh yeah. Good luck by the way. Call me if you need someone to put that bitch in her place."
"Will do, but just make sure you don't forget to lock up later. Neither one of us needs Jack chewing our asses out again." He and I have had Jack, our boss, tell us off too many times before, and he has warned us that if slip up again then we will be on our way to looking for new jobs.
"Too true. See you later."
Kyle and I both give each other a quick wave, following by me walking out into the parking lot. Getting closer to my car, I notice someone standing next to it, almost as if they have been waiting for me. From here, I have no idea who it could be since the person is facing away from me, but I guess I will be finding out in a second.
"Amy?" She jumps at the sound of my voice, quickly turning around. "I thought we were meeting later on for dinner?"
"Looks like plans have changed. I got off work a little early today, so I figured I would just go ahead and hear your break-up story now. There really is no reason to prolong what probably should have happened months ago," Taking a few steps and dragging her fingure along my car door, she makes herself closer to me. "Isn't that right, Asher?"
Even though I have been trying to plan out what I am going to tell her all day, I'm not really sure what I should say at this point. To be honest, I didn't know what to do in the first place considering teh would be first time I have broken up with someone. Now that she has thrown me the curveball of already being one step ahead and knowing why I wanted to talk, I'm at a lose for words.
"Uh, well," Damn, what the hell do I say to her? "Amy-"
"Save it. I get that you have now found the love of your life and all that shit, but I'm not in the mood to hear it. Goodbye, Asher," She begins to walk away from me, but she is not going to get away that easily without hearing what I really need to say.
"Get your ass back here," Amy comes to a quick stop, twisting around. "Don't you dare come here and say that shit to me. Yes I did find someone else, yes I am leaving you for her, and yes she's not some manipulative bitch like you are. I don't know why I ever felt the need to stay with you, when I stopped loving you so long ago. You have brought me nothing but misery and anger. You're right. This should have happened months ago, but you know what...I am just happy it is finally happening."
Taking a deep breath, I try to calm myself down because I can feel my blood pressure rising. It is just like her to make me feel like this. Amy thrives on making other people unhappy and miserable, but I am not going to be part of her little game anymore. I should have never stayed with her as long as I did.
"Well, I am glad to finally hear how you really feel." Keeping her voice low, I can see right through her fake emotions. She grips onto her purse tighter and pushes her hair behind her shoulder for what seems to be her way of adding a dramatic effect. "It's good to know, so we can end all of this before the baby is born."
Gasp! Didn't see that one coming, did you? I hope not! ;)
Vote, comment, and share! Hopefully, I can get the next chapter up soon! Have a fantastic day, y'all!
