And Then There Was You. (BoyXBoy)(REWRITTEN)

16.

We ended up cutting the trip short after that.
Even after I had told everyone I would be fine.
They ignored it and we just decided to leave early.

The entire way back to the apartments.
It was quiet.
Me and the girls were dropped off first.
And honestly.
I felt a little worried for Cain.
Despite what happened last night.

Jeremy was the last person you wanted to be left alone with in the car.

Tomorrow I'd be going to the airport to head home for a week.
I honestly knew I needed this.
I mean no one was holding me back.
..
Not anymore.

I knew Muffin was glad to be home, she ran straight into our room and went to bed.
I'd be leaving her in Kimmy's care while I was gone.
So I knew she'd be in good hands.

I stood in my room, staring at my suitcase.
I had no idea what to even pack.
I knew clothes were a huge idea here.
..
I know I was supposed to feeling worse than how I acted.
But right now?
I didn't have time to be depressed.

Cain cheated on me and ruined everything.
I couldn't keep thinking about the what if's.
Or the how it could of been's.
I had to think about now.

I stared at the bed for the longest time.
..
No.
I can't miss him.
I shouldn't even think about him.

This week would be all about me and my family.
I'd be able to be myself, now that my dad's turned into the guy every child becomes embarrassed to be around.
According to Sophia, he was still making dad puns.
And making her gag.

Honestly, I was kind of excited to see my brothers again.
Especially my niece's and nephew's.
I just hope they're okay with me like how dad had finally became.
Or else this may turn out awkward.

"Are you sure I can't tag along?" Jeremy whined laying on the couch in a dramatic pose.
I rolled my eyes making sure everything was good and packed.
"Jeremy, I told you. This is me time, and me time means, no distractions." I said with a smirk.
Jeremy blinked.
"So I can be distracting?" He asked.

I sighed.
"Yes, but seriously. I honestly need to be alone this week." I told him.
He nodded.
"No I get it, I mean you find out your boyfriend turned out to be a cheater and the last thing you need is friends." He said.
I made a face.
"Thanks, Jerri." I frowned.

"I didn't mean it like that." He said now.
I frowned.
"I know," I took a seat running a hand through my hair.
"I'm just tired." I looked at the TV.

"How're you doing though?" He asked me now.
I looked to him.
"What? With the break up?" I asked.
He nodded as I sat up.
"I don't know, I think it still hasn't exactly dawned on me? Not really emotionally, I mean. I cried a lot yesterday, but I don't think the fact him cheating and not coming back, has hit me." I said rubbing my neck.

"Do you miss him, already?" Jeremy asked.
"Nope." I lied looking at him.
His brows furrowed.
"I don't." I lied again with a shrug.
"It was his choice to cheat on me, just like it was my choice to leave." I said standing up.

Jeremy frowned.
"Angel, he told me before he told you." He confessed now.
I looked at him for a moment.
"You've known since day one?" I asked.
He shook his head.
"No, he told me last week before the trip. I was going to tell you, but I knew it should be him that should of said something." He frowned standing up.

I looked at him confused.
"So when I brought up the fight-"
"I lied, well not about the punching part. Because I really did punch him, I wanted to do a lot more than that." He looked at me.
"You're my best friend, Angel. I had to defend you in some way, and my fist had the idea faster than my own brain did." He gave off a weak smile.
