Bi-stressed

CHAPTER 58

"Lexi you dont have to go with him, he's drunk damn it! You don't know what he can do to you next!" Hardin comes running behind me.

"Who does this bastard think of himself! Fuck off before I.." Zac struggles from my grip to go over to him.

"Hardin, I know my boyfriend okay! He loves me. He isn't gonna hurt me!" I shout, gripping Zac tightly.

"He did though." Hardin spits.

"You're gonna fight me? Come on then!" Hardin mocks Zac.

"Hardin go!" I scream.

Shawn, Kim and Luna are now out of the house and are running towards us. Shawn rubs Hardin's back up to down and vice versa, calming him down.

"Hardin, come on inside. Let's enjoy the party bro!" Shawn tells him.

"Hardin go! I don't need you to protect me from my own boyfriend!" I yell.

"But you just.. I thought we.. my bad!" He runs his fingers through his curly hair, pushing it back.
We all stare at him as he walks away hurt towards his car and shutting the door hard, he takes off.

I feel my heart ache for him. I have always cared for him and he protecting me from Zac has surprised me. His concern was what I needed then not now. I wish he cared about me this way back then.

"I'm not ready right now but we can definitely date in the future. Just wait for the right time." His words repeat over and over again on my mind.

Maybe I should've waited instead of moving on so fast with Zac. But if I had to wait, Luna would have asked me out.

It all happened for a reason. My subconscious reminds.

It was hardly two weeks that I got to know Zac and I started dating him. Elaine was the one to force me over Zac. She was also the reason Hardin didn't want to date me.

"Have a look at that hot guy over there!" She said over the music.

"I saw him checking you out, throughout the bonfire. All night, his eyes were fixed on you as you sang out the lyrics over the music. The way he fought Hardin for you, shiz man! You should definitely make a move on him. Girl! You need to get over with damn Hardin." She kept on after me to get over Hardin and go for Zac.

Obliging to my then best friend, I started speaking to him and soon after, we started dating. Elaine was the first person to know about Zac and me and was much more excited than me.

Honestly, I never understood Hardin. He was rude as hell sometimes but other times said things which made me fall for him more. He said I wasn't his type then he said we can definitely date in the future. He hurt me but I felt like he cared at times. It was all confusing until Zac.

He changed my mind about Hardin so fast. He didn't give me a chance to think and kept on saying things I actually wanted to hear from Hardin and eventually made me fall for him.

I thought this thing I had for Hardin was just infatuation because I fell for Zac pretty easily. If it was love, I wouldn't be able to move on that fast. But nothing can deny the fact that I had feelings for him and maybe still have.

Can a person even have feelings for three people at a time?

The alcohol makes my head spin, even though I just had four red cups of cherry vodka. Four is a lot for you. My subconscious mocks. I've never drank this much before and especially never without Zac.

"Should I drop you'll off?" Shawn asks.

"No! It's fine." Zac growls.

"You're in no state to drive."
