Love In The City
♡ Chapter 18 ♡
Diana’s POV
Tea in the morning now tastes bitter and bland. I used to enjoy my morning tea. I loved being held in the cold kitchen while the tea brewed. I still do love that, but It doesn’t happen anymore. He’s not here to hold me.
I can’t get the last words he said to me.
“So I guess that’s it.”
That’s all he has to say about our relationship? I thought he would tell me that I’m still the one and that it’s all a lie, but he didn’t. He didn’t even have the balls to look me in the eye. I’m still not over the fact that he’s just like every other guy. Every other asshole out there. I’m so done with being a play toy for these assholes. Now it’s my turn and I’m in charge.
I go to my room and pack my suitcase for tomorrow’s trip back to NYC. I love the city and my manager at the restaurant is expecting me back at work ASAP. I told her my aunt died. Luckily my lie was bought.
I pack everything I need and get ready for my date with Zach. I apply some mascara and light eyeliner before slipping into my blue skinny jeans and white tank top. I put on my jean jacket and leave.
I get to the movies and he’s late. It’s only five minutes but it makes me angry and irritated. I sit and wait for another twenty minutes before he finally shows up. The movie is starting in about five minutes so I guess we won’t have time to grab snacks.
“Hey babe” he says walking towards me. I put on a fake smile and give him a hug.
“Hey there.” I reply
“Let’s get into the theatre shall we?” he replies walking quickly towards the theatre. We walk into the theatre and its packed.
“There are some seats up there.” Zach whispers and we awkwardly walk to the front of the theatre. I hate sitting at the front. It hurts my neck and sitting up higher is where you can see the movie the best.
Were watching the movie and I’m lost since we missed the beginning. Ugh. He then puts his arm around me making me want to rage fully throw it off me and get out of here.
“Be right back.” I whisper.
I get up and walk outside of the theatre. I dial Harry’s cell but put the number 88 before it so he can’t see the caller ID. I hear a few rings before he answers.
“Hello?” he asks. I remain silent and cover my mouth so he can’t hear my sobs.
“Who’s there?” I can’t help but cry and cry with ever moment that passes.
“Diana?” I hang up and run my fingers through my hair frantically.
Why did he have to do this to me. He hurt me so bad and I just can’t get over how much pain I’m in. I can’t live with him but I can’t live without him. It’s been so long since he’s held me in his arms. It seems like forever since he’s said ‘I love you’ and right now I just need him.
I pull out my phone and text Zach.
To Zach: Hey, I had an emergency I had to go, sorry.
I instantly get a reply and I hope he’s not too mad.
From Zach: No problem babe ;) we can pick this up later.
As if. For fucks sake Zach is not my type. How many times have I told him not to call me babe? Fuck him.
I walk down the streets and just as usual I get caught in a rainstorm. I pass by a small little café and decide to go in for a snack. I wipe the runny mascara making me look emo but it doesn’t matter because I’m hungry and the shop is almost empty.
“Hi.” I say weakly to the lady at the register.
“Hello how can I help you?” she asks.
“Can I please have a peppermint hot chocolate?” I ask
“Sure hon, anything else?” she asks.
“Where’s the washroom?” I reply.
“Over there.” She points smiling. I quickly pay and go to the washroom. I lock the door and try to fix myself.
I pull out my purse and get out the q-tips, wipes, spare brush and mascara. I’ve been carrying all this around ever since Harry’s and I’s split. I tend to breakdown at the most bizarre moments now.
I wipe all the old make up off my face before using the q-tips to get rid of the extra little bits. I then apply a fresh coat of mascara before brushing my hair and tying it in a bun. There. I look like nothing happened.
I walk out of the café and sit at my table. To my luck the hot chocolate is already there. I sit by the window sipping my warm drink and just letting everything sink in. Where did it go so wrong? …
FLASH BACK.
Wow Colorado stadium is huge. I run around on the stage doing twirls and spins when I feel two strong arms lift me up from behind.
“Harry!” I exclaim as he spins me around on stage.
“Love, you’re interrupting rehearsals we go on in about five hours.” He whispers as he puts me down.
“Sorry, I just love dancing on stages.” I reply laughing.
“I know love, but I don’t wanna see you get in trouble.” He says kissing my neck.
“Alright alright! I’m going to Starbucks. Want anything?” I ask.
“I think you know.” He replies.
“Caramel Frappuchino Light. Cuz you’re a skinny bitch now.” I mock before bursting out into laughter.
“Haha, but yes. Maybe a cookie too if you’re feeling nice?” he asks.
“Maybe.” I reply before running off.
“I LOVE YOU!” he yells over the mic.
“LOVE YOU TOO!” I yell back.
END OF FLASHBACK.
We were so perfect…
