Him.

Kapitel Vierzehn - Healing Wounds & Rising Feelings Pt. III

Hi, yeah. Lol sorry for this part of the story being so long (if you don't like this drama that is lol) it's just what's "easiest" to write about due to its freshness... This will be the last formal part of this part so don't worry if you don't like reading about Jeremiah and Lav.

X X X X

So, naturally, Jeremiah and I broke up. I mean we were never formally together but in his eyes we were a couple. Though we did "break up" several times, this one was for real. And I was the one to do it.

I told Seb bits and pieces of what happened while we were still "together" and he consistently told me that I should stop talking to Jeremiah. Me being the hardheaded individual I am didn't listen and realized that I was wrong to go against his advice a couple months into the relationship.

Anyways, after we "broke up" I pretty much just kept to myself, trying to reach out to my friends when I needed the support. I couldn't really rely on my parents because of.. ya know.. our interesting relationship. Seb was kind of sore with him being all like "I told you so," and just telling me to get over it. But America was definitely a lot better of a friend. Although she didn't really ask about the details and stuff, she was there quietly supporting me and distracting me when I needed it.

It's definitely been a minute since we've "broken up," but with the way Xavier is acting, it's making me a little nervous. I mean, I don't think that Xavier actually likes me, rather I feel like he is just...like, flirty. But then there's Ashton who I know nothing about but he's kind of weird. Like really weird. Really.

The problem with Xavier is that he kind of reminds me of Jeremiah--they're both charming, kind, and definitely easy on the eyes. I really don't want to fall for him and let history repeat itself. But the truth is, I think I am starting to have feelings for him.

I don't know, maybe it's because he's just so laid back--something I'm not that very used to--or that he's actually made an effort to actually get to know me--unfortunately something that I'm also not used to--but my interest is definitely piqued.

I'm really trying my darndest to not fall for him. I just can't let what happened with Jeremiah happen again. Jeremiah kind of broke my heart. And I definitely know that despite his flowery words, he wasn't good company. Especially when he's angry--which as of late, seemed like all the time. I just...can't take that risk again.

Alright guys. Sorry for the short chapter but I started running out to stuff to say lol. I probably should've just crammed this in the previous part but it was already getting long and I didn't want to drone on.

Not to worry if Lavender's backstory is starting to bore you as this is then last part of that and we'll get back to Lavender and Xavier's story in the follow chapters!
