"the damn tweets!" - sprousehart

L I L I

I sat on the couch of my trailer, staring at the tweets on my phone. Tears fell from my eyes by the sight.

The hate. The hate made me feel worse than ever. The fact that that stupid hashtag was now going trending on twitter made everything even worse.

I wiped the tears from my face and tried to lessen the red colour on my cheeks. "Here I go." I encouraged myself, stepping out of the trailer.

Immediately I was greeted by Cole's warm arms twisting around my waist. "Hey love." He whispered and turned me towards him in his arms.

I fake-smiled at him and kissed his cheek softly. "How are you?" He asked me, noticing something was up.

"Fine." I lied, even though I sucked at it. He'd always notice when something was wrong.

"So... you're not. Tell me what's up baby?" He asked, sliding his hand over my cheek.

"It's just... never mind. Stupid things, I'm the whiny me like always." I tried to bring it as a joke which hopefully worked.

"...Okay...Let's go shoot." He said, taking me towards Pop's where we had our first scene.

My hand laced with his carefully, an immediate warm feeling taking over my body.

What if they're right? What if I am not good enough for him?

Slowly I removed my hand from his, making him look at me in confusion. He decided to shake it off and just let me follow him by myself.

We sat down in the booth at Pop's where Roberto came up to us, giving some instructions. My mind drifted off elsewhere as I felt my anxiety built up.

My breath increased and suddenly everything around me started turning. It felt like my mind was playing tricks on me.

All of the sudden it was like I was drowning, like I needed to catch my breath. The air came up higher and higher and my sight turned blurry.

I felt arms around me and words being screamed but everything felt like it was a mile away from me. Then it went black.

"Baby?" I heard Cole's husky voice speak in my ear. My eyes fell open by the sound of him. I looked around, finding myself in my very own trailer.

"Lils!" He exclaimed happily. His hand stroke over my blonde hair.

"Cole." I hitched out of my throat. He smiled and kissed me softly.

I don't deserve him.

My lips unlocked with his. "Now tell me what's wrong, I know something was bothering you before and then this happened. I'm not going before you tell me." He told me determined.

I felt a tear rolling down my eye over my bare cheek. He wiped it away with his thumb.

"Hey. Lils, tell me." He begged, striking his hand over my hair again. "We're alone, the others went back to shooting." He supported me.

More tears fell down my face. "Haven't you read?" I questioned him. He looked at me in confusion as he shook his head.

"Read what?"

"The damn tweets!" I shouted, sitting straight on the bed. He looked at me shocked.

"They hate me Cole! Nobody wants us to be together! I don't deserve you!" I yelled, pushing his arms away from my body. I saw his eyes turn shocked.

"Lili what the hell?" He said, grabbing my arm with his hand. Again I pushed him away.

"They're right. I'm not good enough for you." I cried out, pushing him further away from me.

He moved back to me. "What the fúck!? Lili you deserve the world, you deserve way more than me!" He yelled softly. More tears rolled down.

"Read." I replied, pushing my phone in his hands, twitter opened.

I saw how his eyes scanned the words and they widened by every word he read. "Hey, baby." He said, sitting next to me on the couch. He pulled me on his lap.

"Listen to me now, okay?" He asked, I nodded bravely. "You are you. You are a beautiful, strong, independent young woman. All these stupid trolls on twitter don't know a fúck about you, they judge without a reason. You're the kindest, most gorgeous person I know on this earth, and I swear to god I don't deserve you." He explained, me listening carefully to every word he brought out.

"I love you Lili Pauline Reinhart. Don't let these stupid trolls ruin your beautiful smile please." He begged, holding me pressed tight to his body.

Another tear fell down. "I love you too." I whispered softly. "Thank you." I added, slowly pressing my lips onto his while still on his lap.

He kissed back, putting lots of love in the kisses he was giving me. Carefully I broke the kisses. "But there are just so many Cole, I-I can't face that hate everyday." I admitted with a prowl on my lips and looking down to my hands.

"Hey, look at me." He demanded, turning me towards him with his hands. "Then don't. Deactivate your twitter, let them know you're done. Maybe they'll stop, but at least you won't have to read them anymore." I smiled and nodded.

I took my phone and deactivated my page on twitter before closing my phone. "But what about the real fans?" I questioned him.

"If they're real, they'll understand." He explained, pulling me into a tight embrace in his chest.

I giggled and held him pressed against me.
