Come Break Me Down

Chapter 16

"Who the fuck are you?" I didn't even try to hide the anger in my voice as I glared at her.

"Oh, I'm Arianna, and you would be?" She walked over to stand in front of me with her hands on her hips. The short dress clung to her perfect body and I could see where any man would easily be attracted to her. She was his type and I could feel the jealousy and anger rip through my body as I stared at this bitch.

"I'm his fucking girlfriend. I live here!" My mind raced back and forth, trying to cope with the mixed emotions that clouded my judgement. I couldn't decide if I wanted to knock this slut on her ass or just leave.

She laughed, "That's funny. I'll just be going and keep trying his cell, he'll answer eventually." I could see that her screen saver was a photo of them together and I felt dizzy. She dialed his number and I could hear his voicemail message, so I knew it was in fact, his number.

"How exactly do you know him?" I didn't like the way she said that they were 'good friends.'

"I'm not really inclined to discuss that without his permission." I wanted to wrap that long bleach blonde hair around her neck and choke her with it.

"What the fuck does that mean? Just tell me, is he fucking you?" I asked point blank, already knowing her answer.

"I don't like to say it that way, but if you want to be crude, then yes, he is fucking me." She snarled, "I'm sorry to break it to you honey, but he isn't in love with you." She smiled, walking to the door. "Have a good day."

I ran up the stairs in disbelief. I wouldn't have believed her if it weren't for the fact that she had his number, knew about the flight, and showed up at the house. I pulled my bag out of the closet and shoved my clothes into it as fast as I could. Only taking the two bags that I could carry, I was busy hauling them out to my car when Shannon drove up.

"What are you doing, crazy?" He asked, picking up one of the bags like it weighed nothing and placing it in the car.

The tears were pouring down my face. "What's it look like?" I was so angry and hurt and couldn't stop myself from lashing out at him. The lump in my throat along with the overwhelming ache in my heart, took over and I almost couldn't talk.

"What's wrong? He's only gone for a few months. Where are you going?"

"I have nothing to say to that liar. Your brother is a cheating bastard and I'm done, Shannon. I gotta go, can't talk about this right now." I hugged him before getting into my car and driving away.
Turning my phone off, I drove to a hotel and checked in. I went up to my room, got undressed, and immediately stood in the shower. I felt like I was dying it hurt so much. How could he do this to me? I believed all of his lies.

I didn't know what was going to happen. All I did know was that I never wanted to see him again. I cried so much that my eyes were swollen and I finally fell asleep around three a.m.
