"I hate you Zavin"
"You don't mean that Em"
"Yes I do, I hate you with everything in me"
"Stop it Emerson"
"No Zavin, I ha-"
I was cut off when Zavin smashed his lips into mine
making me stumble back, I instantly melt into his arms, giving into the kiss.
No, no em you can't do this, I push him roughly in the chest, making him step back in surprise.
"No Zavin!, your not allowed to do that, you can't just make me angry, and then go kissing me when you want, it doesn't work like that."
"Em I'm sorry I couldn't help it"
"No no no, I'm done, we are done, this is done Zavin, whatever we had is gone"
"STOP SAYING THAT EMERSON"
His loud yell echoed through the empty mansion, making me flinch and unconsciously step back.
Instantly noticing my fear he reached out for me.
"Don't touch me" I whispered so quietly I'm surprised he heard it.
"I'm so sorry I didn't mean to yell" I could hear his voice crack with every word.
This is the most vulnerable I'd ever seen him, and it scared me to be honest.
Without a word I ran out the door as quickly as I could, not looking back. There was tears streaming down my face and my vision was blurry.
Before I could even reach the sidewalk I felt an strong hand grab my arm, Zavin turned me towards him, lifting my chin, forcing me to look him in the eyes.
"Please Emerson, I love you" his voice cracked even more now, every word making my heart break a little more.
"And I hate you Zavin" I said looking him dead in the eyes.
"I hate you for making me love you" I said starting to cry again, uncontrollably now.
I felt his hand go limp and I took it as a chance to run, I took off. All I could hear was the sound of my old shoes against the concrete of the cracked sidewalk, and the sound of my salty tears hitting the hard ground.
I looked back to see Zavin, just standing there in his front yard, looking as if he'd just seen a ghost, he didn't move or fuss, or even blink. He just stood there.
