Rival Lovers (Completed)

Chapter 3

Current Time

"God dad! Why do you have to be such a dick?!" I yelled as I stormed up the stairs.I hate coming home from college and arguing with my dad. I hate seeing him in general. He just reminds me of my mother.

And right now, at this specific time, I don't want to be reminded of her. I don't need this right now. I walked into my room and slammed the door loud enough so that it would echo through the hallways.

I had hoped it would be loud enough for my dad to hear. I walked over to my bed and grabbed my phone which was sitting on my nightstand. I fell onto my bed and opened my phone up.I really hoped right now that Meredith would answer my text. I had texted her earlier asking if she wanted to hang out with me, hoping I could stay away from my dad for a bit, but she only left me on "Read". Which to be honest, really pissed me off.

I hovered my finger over her name. Once again seeing the text that I had sent her.Beverly: Hey Meredith, I just wanted to see if you wanted to hang out? Maybe go to the mall? Text me when you get the chance, I really don't wanna go home right now, Lilian texted me that my dad was in a mood.

But of course, when I need her most, she doesn't respond. She's probably with her asshole boyfriend Hunter. He's a fucking loser, I hate him so much.

Now I will admit this, I hate him for one big reason. One night at a party, when Meredith was sick, I slept with some guy. His name was Hunter.

I later found out the next day that he was Meredith's boyfriend. I never told her, I didn't want to hurt her. But I was furious with Hunter. I even punched him after finding out he cheated on my best friend.

I thought it would better if I never told her.

I loved her too much to do that. Meredith is the closest thing I have to a sister, and I really don't want to lose her, especially over a simple mistake I had made.

I looked at my contacts and decided not to text Meredith, if she was seriously going to leave me on "read", then what's the point of even trying.

It's not like we were having any issues today, I know she's probably just busy, as she usually is.I scrolled through my contacts and saw some guy I had texted a few weeks ago, he and I actually hooked up that night as well. He wasn't too bad, so why not text him again?

Beverly: Hey Landon, wanna hangout?

Landon: Sure, but when? I'm actually hanging out with my girl right now, wanna meet up in like an hour or so?

Now, right here. The most sensible woman would stop the conversation, but not me.

Beverly: Sounds good to me, meet me at Rocky's in an hour. I'll book a room.

Landon: Okay, do I need to bring protection or are you on the pill?

Beverly: What do you think?
