Everything seems off, it had never been this way. The sequence of these events all seems so off. Why is everything falling apart. Where did it all start.
"Cara." Dominic then pulled me out of my thoughts. I held my chest because of the shock.
"You scared me." I muttered, he just snitched played with the cigarette om his finger. "You're smoking again?" I asked, concerned.
"I just missed it.." he answered looking away and stared at the forest around our mansion. We are at the balcony.
"Britney told you to stop, so you stopped." I saw how his eyes role at the mention of her name. "I never remembered she told you to continue." I gave him a suspicious stare.
"Britney... doesn't control my life, no one will. I want to smoke because I want to, not because she said I can." he lied, I know, he can't look at me in the eye.
"Then smoke, what are you waiting for? You've been playing with that for minutes now." he bit his lip at my statement. I knew it.
"I...I don't have lighter." he stammered and looked down the ground.
"Here." I gave mine that I use not to smoke but for spells and potions. He slowly grabbed it, hands shaking.
He tried to lit the lighter a few times until he succeed. He then placed the other end of the cigarette on fire. I just watched him do it with regret in his eyes.
He placed it in front of his mouth, the stick was shaking because of his hand. Then he finally inhaled the smoke but before even a second he started coughing and threw the stick far away from him.
"Tsk." I took my lighter away from him, he's still coughing nonstop because of it.
"You win, what do you want from me?" he said in between his coughs. I rolled my eyes and faced him as I was leaning against the railings earlier.
"I don't want anything, think about what's bothering you. I don't want you to unwillingly say it to me, but I'm always here if you need help." I said as I felt the sadness while looking in his eyes.
"Yeah, sure." he nodded. "You can go back first, I need to think alone and it's getting cold out." I was now the one who nodded and stepped inside the mansion.
I sat by the dinning table, you can clearly see the kitchen from here as it's not far. I can see Felicity cooking while being accompanied by Lucky and Edward.
I just kept an eye on them as they were busy with laughing and cooking. By this time anyone would know that the two liked Felicity since they were fighting for her attention. These brats never helped me heat up the canned food we always ate, that's why. Felicity is completely oblivious of the two's feelings.
One day one must face heartbreak, for the other two's heartbeats are connected to each other.
I got sick of this lovey dovey so I scrolled through my phone and waited for food to come since it's almost dinner time. It would've be finished by now if the two were not fighting on who's helping Felicity with this and that.
But my bitter eyes can't have a break as soon as this couple sat right in front of me. Everyone's worlds seems to progress while I silently observe and wait for mine to do the same thing.
I kept watching because maybe one day I can use this. When will that one day come? Maybe I should just give up and find my own story. Nothing will change if I stop, right?
I was in daze as two arms were already violating my personal space. I quickly turned around to see who is it. It was Edward.
I wanted to mentally and physically slap myself because our faces are close since he was putting a dish on the table. But he didn't notice and just carefully backed and sat on a chair beside Felicity.
My hands balled into fists as I tried to calm myself from the situation I was in a few seconds ago.
Why is this happening? I've moved on.
