`~•~•~•~`
I've been through a lot and alone through it all but it's what's made me stronger. I thought that being by myself, fighting this battle with my army of one was the way to go. But now Andres has shown up again. Waltzing back in my life thinking that he can just woo me over with a few words and I'll be following around him like a lost puppy. Well then he's going to be in for a huge surprise when he realizes everything isn't going to go his way. I'm not the young naive girl I used to be. That was so hopelessly in love she couldn't see the truth. I know how to see the signs that was once my downfall, I can see the lies that hide behind his eyes even though he swears he's telling me the truth, my walls are higher and bulletproof, this time I'm stronger than glass and he will never get the chance to see me break. Never again.

"Were you jealous that you weren't invited? Is that why you had to sabotage the whole thing, uh?" he bit his teeth, his voice getting angrier and his hold on me crushing. "Ow.. please...," I said tears rolling down my eyes. He didn't say anything this time just watched me cry, and I could basically see the smirk forming on his lips in slow motion.
