Missing

part 57

ethan lays down next to me panting for air

he wraps his arm around me and pulls me to his chest, we look in each other's eyes, "you really are beautiful" he whispered

i smile as he kisses my forehead

+

i heard a bunch of mumbling and that's when i felt my bed get lighter, i turn around and ethan was wearing nothing but pants

"i didn't mean to wake you up" he said

"no it's fine" i lie

he smiled and moved the chair from the door and walked out, so that's it?

i did enjoy last night and he was amazing in bed but this will hurt joey really badly, wait. why do i care about he thinks, i couldn't care less

i get off my bed and my head was pounding, i put on some new clothes and felt my stomach gnarl. i run to the bathroom and start puking in the toilet

i tie my hair up and heard someone run in the bathroom, "you okay?"

i turn to look and it was joey, i push him and wipe my mouth, i flush the toilet and wash my hands

"elen-"

"shut up" i dry my hands

"but-"

"just shut up joey!" i shout

his eyes widened, "what's is your problem elena!"

i scoff, "my problem?"

"yes yours, you've been acting different" he says

i laugh then my eyes started tearing, "you wanna know? it's you, you're the problem!"

"me?"

"yes, i'm just, sorry i don't feel like talking right now" i walk downstairs with him following behind me

"what did i do?"

i scoff, "are you seriously asking me that?"

he nods

i would yell at him right now but my head is pounding and i'm starving, i ignore him and walk in the kitchen

i start making a Belgium waffle with chocolate milk, "elena please" joey walked in and sat by the table

i tie my hair up and ignore him

i sit down far from him and eat my waffle, gosh this taste amazing why haven't i made this before?

"just stop joey okay?" i sigh

joey got up and sat down next to me, "talk to me.... please"

i shake my head and sip my chocolate milk, the taste of alcohol still in my mouth

"is this because of lexi?"

i stop chewing and look at him, his eyes filled with concern. i look away and swallow my food

i don't know

the moment replays in my head, how can he love her, she's disgusting. my stomach crashes and i hold in my tears

"leave me alone" i finally say

joey put his hand on my shoulder but i push it away, "please" i whisper

he got up and pushed the chair in the table, he stormed out the kitchen and i heard his room door slam shut

i put my plate in the sink and grab a advil and water, liam walked in and he looked different
