Desperado

part 9

"how was it?" i hear madison yell when i open the door

i close the front door and look around the place for her, she was waiting by the stairs with a book in her hand, "was it awkward?"

i shake my head at her excitement and put the keys on the counter, "not at all"

"well that's great!" she claps her hands

i walk over to the flight of stairs, "it was actually fun. we're hanging out again tomorrow"

"shut up!" her jaw drops

i laugh, "what?"

"you guys are going to start dating i know it!" she jumps up and down

"no we won't" i open the door to my room and she walks inside

"yes you will! he took you out to dinner and you guys are going out again tomorrow! he's like your only friend here. don't you think this means something?" she smirks

i lay down on the bed, "no, we are just friends"

"come on elle, is he cute?" she lays down on the bed with me propping her elbow up

"i'm not answering that"

"he is isnt he!" she shouts and i start laughing

"no! stop mads" i cover my face and she swats my arm

"you so think he is! come on, he came back in your life after 4 years. i'm pretty sure that means something"

is she really convincing me that ethan is the one? i wish i could tell her

"no mads! he is just a friend, i can't see him as anything more, i don't want too. i just want to be friends with him"

"ugh why? your boyfriend cheated on you and got mad at you for it. i think you deserve better" she tucks a piece of my hair behind my ear

i look up at her, "we didn't even break up. we're still together i guess"

"he cheated on you and you're still with him? that sounds pretty stupid"

"it's complicated, it's really complicated" like really

"what was his name?" she ask

"joey" i sigh

"of course. all j's are heartbreakers" she snickers

"not him. he's different" i defend joey

"different from what loyal guys because i agree. how long have you guys even been together?" she ask

i furrow my brows, "7 years" i say

her eyes widen, "7 years!"

"yea"

she sits up on the bed and looks at me, "woah, you don't think he cheated on you in the past 7 years?"

"no, not at all" i sit up as well

"but he cheated on you when you left. doesn't that mean anything to you?"

i shake my head, "it's complicated mads. there is stuff i can't tell you, i love him so much even after what he's done"

my phone rings and i grab it, i turn it on and see that joey texted me

"who is it?" she questions

"joey" i whisper

"open it!" she sits closer to me

i cant open it when she's sitting this close to me, he sent me a image. i open my phone and go to our chat

it's a picture of beer bottles on the kitchen table at davids house, "why would he send you that?"

"i-i don't know"

joey:
elena, it's lexi. please tell me you aren't far from us, joeys gone on a killing spree. we need you

i turn my phone off immediately and mads looks at me, "killing spree!"

"what, no. killing spree is like" fuck, "we have this thing where we throw bottle and see which doesn't break, we call it killing spree" i suck at coming up with lies

"oh" she breathes, "that kinda scared me. are you gonna reply back?"

"i don't know"

"i think you should, whoever lexi is seems like she really needs you"

"i know, but i don't want anything to do with him anymore" i admit

"but you still love him and don't want to see other people?" madison furrows her brows

"it's comp-"

"complicated, i know. but if he loves you the way you love him there shouldn't be any complications"

i stare at my phone and sigh, "do i call?"

"yes, i'll leave you alone. i'm here if you need anything" she says and i nod

she leaves my room closing the door. i turn my phone on and hesitate to call him

what do i say? he's drunk. but drunk thoughts are sober thoughts...

i press his name and put the phone to my ear

ring

ring

ring

ring

"elena"

"uh hello?" i missed his voice

"can we facetime? i miss your face" he slurs

i look at my phone and press the facetime button, his face appears on my screen and my eyes widen when i see all the scars on his face

"joey what happened?"

"elena i need you back"

"don't ignore me. what happened to you? is everything okay?" i ask

"yes, we're all fine" he chuckles, "but i need you here. i miss you beautiful"

i always loved when he called me such nice things. but i cant forgive him, i won't go back to him "where's your whore"

he chuckles, "oh baby she's nothing compared to you"

i bite my bottom lip to keep me from crying. he clearly was with someone. i want him too but it's best if i don't go back.

"what did you guys do?" i need to know

"they fuckeddd" david grabs the phone and stick his tongue out, "she was all over his dick"

my mouth slightly opens, "wha-"

joey grabs the phone back, "hes lying"

"i am not. you had 2 girls over last night joey" david laughs

they're both wasted, "i didn't. he's lying"

"you wish i was" david stands and walks away

"come back princess" he starts laughing, gosh his laugh seriously makes my heart skip a beat

i don't say anything but stare at him. i cant take this, i just cant. he had girls over again for his pleasure

"you cheated on me?" i whisper

he shakes his head, "no baby. come back here and let me kiss your beautiful face"

i end the call and throw my phone on the floor. i crawl in the bed and shove my head in the pillow, crying my eyes out

he was with other girls. a total of 4 now, he had a three some last night, and some girl sucking his dick

this must be so fun for him, he must be enjoying himself right now. i cant believe he would do something like this

it's not like him at all, i know joey, or i did. it's crazy how only 4 days can change so much
