August

Grayson finally comes back today and I'm beyond excited to see him again. He's supposed to be coming over tonight so we can spend time together, Ari is out with some of our friends so we'll have the whole apartment so ourselves.

I can't wait.

I take my freshly washed blankets out of the dryer and I'm about to move them to the bedroom when I hear a knock on the door. I break out into a smile, Grayson said he would probably get here a little later but I'm not complaining.

I skip over to the door and open it, "hey ba...." I stop and my heart drops when I see that the person who knocked isn't my boyfriend. Its the last person I want knocking on my door.

"Hello to you too baby" Steven smirks, looking completely calm and casual despite him coming here is far from it.

"How...what....how did you find out where I live?" I ask utterly surprised and a little scared.

He just shrugs and rolls his eyes, "I have my ways...I knew I'd always find you easily".

I squint in disgust, "yeah well you can lose me again" I tell him "I told you to leave me the fuck alone".

"You know I can't do that Charly" he persists and steps closer to me so I take a step back, not wanting to be anywhere near him.

"Don't you dare come near me" I warn him "get out of here right now".

"Baby I just wanna talk" Steven says, not getting the hint at all.

"There is nothing left for us to talk about Steven" I retort getting angrier by the second "just leave me alone".

"We need to talk about us and what happened, I'm so sorry for what I did to you and I want you to forgive me...and....and I want you back".

I choke on my own breath, "you want what?".

He sighs and looks me up and down, "since we broke up I haven't been able to stop thinking about you and what we had. I tried to move on with other girls but they never compared to you or made me feel how you did. When I saw you at that party I couldn't stay away from you and knew I had to have you. I still love you Charly".

He finishes his bullshit speech and I just take a few seconds to stare him out, unimpressed.

"That was a nice attempt Steven, did you see that in a movie and learn it by heart?" I tilt my head at him and go to shut the door in his face but he pushes his hand against it to keep it open.

"Stop this act and just hear me out" I can sense the aggression building up in him and it makes me nervous for a second. Then I remember who the fuck I am and stand my ground.

"You don't deserve another damn second of my time asshole!" I tell him firmly "now get the fuck out of here or I'm gonna call the cops on your pathetic ass".

"Wow, since when did you get so bold huh?" Steven laughs and keeps pushing against the door "you know you want me too so stop fighting it".

"Fuck off Steven".

"Yeah, fuck off Steven".

Steven stops and I can see his eyes widen like he's scared. I smirk when I look behind his shoulder and see my boyfriend standing there, a bouquet of flowers in his hand and a scowl on his face.

Steven turns around to look at him but Grayson starts to walk up to us so he moves back a little.

The two of them stare at each other, both clearly surprised the other one is there.
