And Then Came Him | 2

One.

[1]

Love sucks.

Just when you think it's getting good, your entire world crashes down at your feet.

And everything gets turned upside down.

You think you know someone...until you realize that you really don't know them at all.

Love was pointless, it truly was.

And when you realize that it was all a lie, what are you even supposed to do?

Cry? Scream? Break something?

There was no point in wasting your tears over someone who wouldn't do the same over you.

There was no point in screaming when you know that nobody would hear you.

There was no point in breaking something, when the most important thing was already broken.

Your heart.

And Jade's heart was completely and utterly broken.

It was like there wasn't a reason to even live anymore.

Beck Oliver was her reason to stay alive, to keep going.

But now, she had no reason at all.

Jade wasn't suicidal. She never had been. But it would be a lie if she said she hadn't wondered what it felt like to die.

But, who hasn't wondered that?

Jade had no idea what to do from that point on. She had cried so much that night, it was unreal.

She shattered mostly everything in her apartment. Breaking dishes, throwing clothes, kicking wooden objects.

All while tears streamed silently down her cheeks.

It was physically impossible for her to speak. To say anything. Not that it mattered- nobody was there except her.

But she wanted to scream. To yell. To curse on the top of her lungs.

But when she opened her mouth, no words came out.

She was frustrated. Upset. Angry.

She just wanted to curl up in a ball and cry herself to sleep.

But she had too much built up anger inside of her, and she needed to let it all out somehow.

Her head buzzed and her breathing became choppy, more tears leaking from her eyes and they just wouldn't stop.

She wanted to stop crying. Crying made her feel weak.

And she shouldn't be crying. Not over him.

He didn't deserve her tears.

He didn't deserve anything.

Well, except maybe a kick in the balls, but that still wouldn't be enough to satisfy her.

She wanted him to feel as much pain as he did, even though she knew that that wouldn't ever happen.

At this point, she wouldn't be surprised if he was completely heartless.

He chose money, over her.

And it didn't even seem like he cared.

More anger built up and her fingers immediately reached up and tugged on the necklace around her neck.

And without a second thought, she ripped it off, throwing it on the ground and smashing it with her combat boot as hard as she could.

She should've done that while she was at Tori's. Smashed it right in front of him to get a glimpse of his reaction.

But she had forgot about the silver chain around her neck, since she had already gotten used to the feeling of it.

She stared at the necklace that was completely broken on the floor, and instantly broke down into tears again.

She thought he loved her.

She thought he wanted her.

She thought he needed her.

But all he cared about was money, and dishonesty.

Like the real douchebag he was.

She should've known better than to trust him. He was exactly like she had previously thought, a player. A liar. A scumbag.

And his stupid lying charm made her fall for him.

She should've have ever fell for his smile. His charm. His kindness.

Because none of that was him. It was lies.

He was a liar.

Nothing more, nothing less.

She had given him everything she could. She had slept with him, thinking that he would never hurt her.

But he did.

And she was so stupid to not have realized that this was all going to happen.

He was the one person that she had cared about, other than Cat.

He was most important to her.

She told him everything about her. She never lied to him.

But he lied to her.

Their entire relationship had been nothing but a lie.

Jade let out a shaky sigh as she fell to her knees, losing all strength to stay on her feet.

Love was pointless.

Life was pointless.

Everything was just pointless.

The one thing she loved, gone.

Ripped away from her because he wanted some extra cash.

God, how could she have been so stupid?

She trusted him with all she had. She loved him.

And she thought he loved her.

As the tears finally slowed, she wiped her cheeks that were stained with salty tears and mascara, sighing shakily.

Everything she'd known had been a lie.

That was all she could think about.

She pushed herself onto the couch, not able to make it back to her bedroom. She pulled her knees to her chest and wrapped her arms around them, staring at nothing.

She felt so empty. So broken.

All because she was stupid enough to have believed a supposedly charming guy.

People like him were the reason she had trouble trusting people.

And now, her severe trust issues had come back, stronger than ever.

She wasn't sure if she would ever be able to trust again.

Sighing deeply, she laid her head back against the couch, closing her eyes.

She just wanted to go to sleep and never wake up.

So without waiting any longer, she soon drifted off into a dreamless sleep, with tears still leaking from under her closed eyelids.
