Y'all gonna hate me at the end of this chapter and I'm very sorry.

Narrator's POV

It really hurts Seth how much Becky keeps rejecting him and it hurts more knowing she has feelings for him.

He decides to drown his sorrows in alcohol. As he heads to the bar, popping a bottle of wine open and pouring it's content into a glass till it's full.

He continusly ponders the reason why but  arrives at deadends which only increased his frustration.

His grip on the wine glass tightens as he keeps refilling glass after glass, bottle after bottle for each dead end he arrives at.

Right now he's on his 5th bottle so yeah he's really drunk.

Suddenly the wine glass shatters in his palms and at that moment he looses it.

He starts smashing the bottles, glass cups and vases. He's profusely bleeding but can't feel the pain. Nothing can compare to the pain he feels on the inside.

His heart has a resemblance to the vases, broken and shattered into a million pieces.

And all this pain is caused by the one person he can take a bullet for, that's the part that stings the most.

Meanwhile the noise from downstairs catches Becky's attention. Initially she's scared that it's a robbery and stay put, but then the screams coming from Seth's voice forces her to run downstairs and see if he's alright.

The sight she meets shocks her to the core.

Seth's shattering everything in sight like a mad man and he's bleeding really badly.

" Seth" she screams in fear, even in a drunken state the sound of her voice stops him in his tracks but only momentarily. He goes back to shattering everything in sight.

" Seth" she calls out once more.
"What do you want? " He asks as he turns around and walks towards her. She could tell almost immediately that he's drunk, from his uncordinated steps, the slurring of his words and his bloodshot eyes from both crying and drinking.

For a brief moment, just one second, fear crept up Becky's spine. The possibilities from being alone in a mansion with a drunken man isn't pretty.

But then this isn't any man, this is her best friend Seth and she knows very well that even in a drunken state Seth would never hurt her.

Again Seth asks "What do you want?" But this time him voice is filled with pain.

In her head Becky is screaming "you!" But instead she says " I want you to stop hurting yourself" concern evident in her voice.

" As if you care" he replies rolling his eyes. " I do!" Becky replies, hurt by his accusation.

" What's the point of not hurting myself physically when your destroying me emotionally? " Seth bursts out in frustration and despair.

For a moment Becky is taken aback but then she regains composure. " I'm really sorry I hurt and I'm still hurting you" she says sincerely.

" You don't get it Becky, can't you see that I'm loosing my mind over you? Take a good look at me don't you see the pain? Is this the normal Seth?" He asks  almost in a whisper, bending to he

She doesn't reply so he goes on, " I'm a puppy on your streak, but you keep chasing me away and the worst part is that that just makes me want to stay even more" Seth says starting with his voice high but it goes low around the ending of his statement.

" Anything you want I automatically become, I know you have feelings so why do you keep running away from me,if it's because your afraid my feelings are dishonest, I'll scream it..." Seth says then pauses.

" IM IN LOVE WITH YOU, REBECCA QUIN " He screams at the top of his lungs.

" Seth... please don't love me" Becky cries out, the tears streaming down her face.

" That's the problem...I'm not just in love with you,I'm addicted to you" Seth says feeling pathetic.

" Seth... you can find someone far better than I will ever be, someone willing to love you back, so why won't you just let go?" Becky asks.

" A thousand women will never be equal to one you" Seth answers honestly.

" I'm a woman with a horrible past and no future" Becky explains, shamefully hanging her head low.

Seth raises her face so they're eye to eye, cupping her jaw in his palms.
" Then all I ask of you is the present" Seth says.

" I can't..." Becky begins weakly but her voice trails off.

Seth wraps his arms around her waist and pulls her close to him, until their foreheads meet and for a moment she forgets how to breathe.

" I can feel your heartbeat against my chest, so will you still lie that you don't want me?" Seth whispers as his lips meet her earlobe, sending shivers down her spine.

She doesn't reply, doesn't trust herself enough to.

" Becky I'll leave you and never come back but on one condition" Seth says.
" What's the condition?" Becky asks eagerly.

" Look me in the eye and say you don't want me, that you don't have feelings for me and I promise to leave you alone,  go far away and never return" Seth says seriously and when Becky looks him in the eye and knows he isn't joking.

She swallows hard and clears her throat, looking into those eyes that entrances and captivates her...
