The next heir

34. Fuck

Pia's pov - It was breaking me from inside, it was like someone stabbing me repeatedly on my heart to look at him like this. His eyes which were Carrying love few minutes ago were deep, hollow. I knew this was coming. But the thing hurting me more than seeing him like this is the reason behind his pain is me.

I killed henry today emotionally just like how he killed me.

I took my revenge today but why I am not feeling satisfied.

I got what I wanted but I lost much more today.

His phone crashed down on the floor. It brought me from my thoughts back to him. I stood there. Only helplessly looking at him. He was breaking. He slowly looked at me and my heart crushed all over again. He looked at me pleadingly to help him. I found myself slowly walking towards him. I reached for his cheeks, cuped his cheeks in my hands. His eyes had became red. I brought him down and touched his forehead with mine. I was not having any energy left due to all the pain by seeing him so vulnerable to speak. We sat down on the floor silently, his face in my hands and our foreheads touching.

"They-they are go-gone" he said blinking back tears. I only nodded not knowing what to say.

"I-I know they stopped loving me... a long time ago. But I still loved them... they- they were killed" I again nodded.

"My-my mom was stabbed and my-my dad got shot.. " he said breaking, now tears started flowing from our both eyes. I deserve hell. I love him so much to look at him like this. I wiped his tears and looked at him.

"You should go home" I said. He nodded and hugged me. I hugged him tightly. We got up. We both silently went to the door.

"I'll call everyone" I said and I began to walk upstairs when he reached for my hand and pulled me to his chest. His eyes held pain but yet I saw love in them for me. He kissed me slowly until we parted to take deep breath. He loved me so much that I can't help imagining his hurt when this all will be over and when he will know my real identity.

"Henry, don't love me so much" I found myself saying. He smiled painfully.

"I can't stop now. I am already really deep" he whispered. A cruel piercing pain striked through my chest. I took two steps back and ran back up.

Carters pov - "Carted cool it off" edi said eyeing me sympathetically. I was walking furiously in our room. Not able to control my anger.

"You fucking ruined my only chance with her edi" I said pointing at him.

"What?! Budy I know you are jealous but can you stop blaming me, I was just helping there, Offcourse for you" he said clarifying.

"Offcourse you were" I said annoyingly.

"Ugh... I could have cleared the misunderstanding between us and maybe she just had been able to understand my feelings for her" I said frustrated pulling my hairs. Edi looked kind of guilty.

"I am sorry bro" edi said sheepishly. I scoffed at him. I can't stop imagining my pia spending night with Henry. I know nothing will happen, she is mine I know. It is only hers mendling feelings jumbling inside her head for him. She also maybe like me deep down.

"You know, it's better the more early you understand that she doesn't love you, the better. It will save you a major heartbreak bro" edi said in a soft voice like talking with a small child. I know. I know that damn well. But I just can't forget her. It's like impossible to forget her. How I changed from a fierce boy who used to do one night stands without feelings attached to a complete stranger man who only lives for her. To see her. I crave her. Fuck. I just need a break from her.
