READER'S POV
"Up in bed, all alone. Wondering where you've been.Ten past three. I know the club closed at two A.M ."
i laid in angus' and mines bedroom, it was completely dark except for the television that was still on. it was four in the morning and angus hadn't returned from clubbing with his friends.
he had promised me he would be coming home, but sometimes i guess promises can't really be kept. i let out a big sigh as a wave of worriedness washed over me.
i have had some previous bad experiences with exes lying and cheating on me. but i knew angus wasn't like that.
"I've already been through about seven scenarios, 'bout what it was that changed your mind. Knowing very well that you told me you'd come home and it happens every time."
that's when i heard the door open, i walked outside and saw angus stumbling around. "oh god, you're a mess." i said as i crossed my arms. "lay off of me, would ya love?" he slurred.
"you promised me you would be home earlier! it's 4 in the fucking morning, and you're drunk!" i said raising my voice slightly. "you keep making me promises. you promise me you'll stop drinking, and that you'll come home early. but they never happen. am i not worth for your promises?" i said as tears streamed down my eyes.
"you are! seriously, can't i just have one night with my mates?" he yelled. i gasped a little, "i'm sorry. i can't do this right now." i said as i slowly walked back. "no wait! please do-" angus said before i interrupted him, "no, i'm sorry!"
"Wish I had no expectations. I wish that I could get it through your head. With no confrontation. I really wish we could talk about it instead."
i walked faster this time and slammed the door shut. by now, i was a crying mess. i slammed my fists against the floor and laid on the bed.
"All these tears that I cry while I'm turned to the side and you're in the same fucking bed. Wish I had no expectations. But I expect, you expect, we expect."
