Avery

"Alex, no it is not fine. What do you mean by it was just a kiss?" I ask furiously.

"It means what it means. It was just a kiss," he says raising his voice too and I was mad at him.

"You kissed a girl Alex. A girl while you are engaged to me," I say looking away from him. I caught him kissing a girl after his match while I was there and it wasn't just a peck on the lip, it lasted for a few minutes.

"I told you Avery. I can't show to everyone that I am loyal to you," he says and I scoff.

"You don't the world to know that you are whipped. That you truly are a simp isn't it?" I ask.

"Yes. I don't want to look like a less of a man just because I am in love with you," he says and I stare at him.

"Are-are you ashamed of being in love with me?" I ask chocking on my words.

"No. I am ashamed of the fact that the world will make fun of me for being in love at an age where I should be fucking around," he says and I couldn't believe him.

"Alex, it is not a sin to be in love. Look at the world. Most of them are in love and they are happy with it. And if you think this is the age for you to fuck around, then why did you ask me out and propose to me?" I ask fuming with anger even as tears fall down my face.

We were in my second house in Malibu currently.

"Because I wanted to make you mine before someone else does," he says and I stare at him.

"I am not an object Alex nor am I a trophy to make me yours," I say walking away from him and he holds my hand and pulls me back.

"Do not fucking touch me," I say pushing his hand away first and then him.

"Do not touch me after you kissed her and after saying all of this," I say and I try walking away from him as he grabs a vase and smashes it to the wall close by and I turn around abruptly.

"You don't get to walk away for me," he says with his anger raging.

"Oh yes I do. And if you think that making a sound can make you win an argument, I can make sounds louder than them," I say smashing huge photo frame of Alex and I, creating a louder noise.

"Why is it so hard for you to stay loyal to me Alex? After you know what happened to me in my past?" I ask and he growls loudly.

"Why do you have to bring Liam into this? I am so sick of hearing his name everywhere I go. 'Oh Liam Carson was way better than Alex Peyton. Avery and Liam were so much better together. Avery is too good for Alex'," he said mimicking someone.

"Are you insecure of me? Are you insecure about my past?" I ask and he stares at him.

"I hate that Liam was better with you than me. I hate that you loved him more than you love me and I hate that you are more recognized than me because as a man, I should be known more," he says and I couldn't believe my ears.

"That is ridiculous. I almost felt bad for you upon hearing all of it but the last one you just said, I feel pity for the fact that you are a man who is insecure for a woman who is more successful than him," I say with spite in my voice. I had never been this mad at someone in my life.

"My family trusted you enough to propose to me. You manipulated everyone, including me when all you wanted to show the world was Avery Brooke was in your fist and you could control her like a puppet," I say and even though he said nothing, I knew that it was true by looking into his eyes.
