Furious
/-Riley-/
I sit on couch trying to hold back tears. Was I humiliated? Yes. A lot.
Did I feel like shit? Yes too.
Did I blame Dean? Hell yeah. None of this would have happened if he just told those bitches off. Why would they even think of attacking me? It's not like I jinxed him or have him in my pants pocket.
"Stop crying, baby. It's gonna be alright okay? Forget those sluts" Jamie says.
"Stop try'na make her feel better. Face it, Riley. Dean doesn't love you. If he did, why isn't he here yet? He can't pretend not to know when it's all over the net" She rolls her eyes. All over the net?
"What are you talking about?" I ask gulping hard.
"I guess you didn't see this. Take a look at fhis" She says scooting closer so I could peer into her phone. My heart drops at the embarrassing video but that's not it. The hateful comments are heart breaking.
'What did Dean see in her?'
'She's no match for Janelle'.
'Did she drop from a doll house or what?'.
'A minor? Maybe even my kid sis can go for him'.
Someone snatches the phone and throws it against the wall.
"What the fuck! That was my phone jughhead" Tess complains.
"You had no use for it. Why watch her torture herself with it? You're supposed to be her friend yet you're acting like a jealous bitch. We know how frustrated your life has been but that doesn't make you her sadist" Liam snaps and I smile inspite of myself. Jamie bites his lip to keep from laughing.
"Don't you dare talk about me like that, fuckin faggot" Tests yells red in anger. My jaw drops. How dare she call Liam a faggot?
"Watch your mouth, Tess" Jamie growls. She scoffs and faces Liam who wears an indifferent look.
"Yeah, i like that. I'm a fuckin faggot cause I like cock. But you're acting fag too cause you're ranting like a little dog desperate for cunt. Unfortunately, this pussy aren't yours, face it, pathetic homophobe" He retorts and Jamie bursts into laughter.
I dont know where I get the strength to laugh too, momentarily forgetting my predicament. Maybe it's the priceless look on Tess' face. Her eyes look like they might budge out of it's sockets anytime soon.
"I'm not gonna stand here and let you insult me" She brawls.
"Right, cause I'm gonna throw you out right now" Liam adds grabbing her arm.
"Let me go, you psycho" She yells as he drags her to the door. He opens the door and tosses her out like an annoying cat.
He slams the door and walks back to us. He sits beside me and i lean on his chest.
"You'll survive, Barbie. Forget that pessimist." He assures but i still can't get rid of the doubts.
"But she's right. He should be here. Even he couldn't, at least he should have called. To make sure I'm still breathing at least" I mutter.
"He must have a reason. Be patient. He'll definitely come" He assures and i nod.
The next day, i wake extra early to fix breakfast. I pull open the cupboards and frown. We're out of groceries. Why wouldn't we be when Liam can eat a mountain? I guess I just have to rush down the street and get something or we're gonna starve.
I walk upstairs to Liam's room. He's still asleep. Why wouldn't he be when his maid is gonna cook for him? I roll my eyes at the thought.
I head to my room and take some cash from the drawer before heading down. I grab my coat and jog down the street. I enter the store ignoring the stares.
Hands were pointing and murmurs erupted but i tried my best to ignore it. I but everything I need and move to the counter to pay. The middle aged man keeps staring at me like I'm from a fashion show. I sigh and slam the money on his desks before walking out.
I release a breath I didn't realise I was holding and took a quick glance at the items. Shit, i forgot sugar.I groan at the thought of going back there.
I really don't have a choice cause I'm outta granulated sugar. I walk back in, ignoring the glares and reach for the sugar. Just as i grab it, something hits me.
A small gasp escapes my lips. I turn to take a look. Canned beef? A pack of salt hits me too. Before, i can even blink, food items bath me. I struggle to run out wiping the eggs from my face but i don't get far.
Phones up, grocery shower and blind Riley. Tears stroll down my cheeks. I manage to squeeze through the crowd with the laughter and hateful comments only to run into someone's arms.
"Stop!" Someone yells and the shower ceases. I guess whomever it is must be very important, like I give a damn.
"Barbie?". That voice. He wipes my face so I can get a proper look at him. He's dressed in all white. Looking like a fallen angel.
"Wifey..I'm sorry" He apologises but at this point, they sound like mere words to me. I slap his hand away.
"Forgive me. I didn't know, i swear. I came as soon as i heard" He pleads but i don't still care.
"It doesn't matter anymore" I say sprinting to my house. I shut the door and sink to the floor. Am I really going to live like this? Because of one man? How is it my fault huh? I didn't crawl to him. He came to me, dammit.
A knock follows shortly on the door but i refuse to open it cause I know who it is already. I don't even wanna see him. The knock persists so I open it out of compulsion.
"What do you want?" I say coldly. He tries to touch me but I back away. He sighs and ruffles his hair.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know you were going through all these. I just found out this morning and I came down to make it right" He says. My heart believed him instantly.
"Everything that happened was your fault. Why can't you just stay outta my life huh? Why do i have to face so much humiliation becaus of one man? Now you think you can smuggle your way in with just an apology? How does that help me huh?" I yell. He lowers his head.
"Just leave my life, Dean. I can't deal with you. We're worlds apart. Just let me be, please" I sob.
"Is that what you really want?" His voice cracks. I swallow and nod. He bites his lip and stares at me with glistening eyes.
"Really?".
"Just leave Dean" I snap and he nods.
"Okay"He says simply and walks away. I feel like I crushed my heart with my own hands. I had to. I can't handle the hate. I sigh and shut the door. It's for the best.
/-Delilah-/
I watch Dean walk back to us looking dejected. I smile. I succeeded in keeping the news away from him until this morning.
"What happened, man? You look like shit" Renzo asks.
"She asked to leave her life because of those bitches" He seethes. I suppress my smile.
"No one touches what's mine. I won't let this slide. I will surely punish them. they will feel my wrath " Dean growls and my insides tremble. Maybe I shouldn't be too happy just yet.
"Rhett take the other car and get those sluts in my house. If i get back and don't find them, I'll have your head" He says.
"Yes boss " Rhett says walking to the Lexus. Dean enters the other car and i follow him.
"Where are you going?" I ask.
"I'm gonna get so fuckin high that I won't care who's dying in my arms".
