The Letter. THE CHANGE.
The Lie.
Chapter 82: July 17
*Louis's POV*
"There you go," the bartender placed another glass in front of me.
My fingers wrapped around the cool
glass and pulled it closer to me, my eyes stared at the colored
liquid before taking a drink. I couldn't tell you how many
drinks I had had, I hadn't been keeping count and I
didn't really care. Getting wasted to forget about my
problems probably wasn't the best idea but I was already
screwed anyway.
I can't believe Katia saw me
and Ashlyn. I had never wanted to hit a woman until I saw that
smug grin on Ashlyn’s face right as I went to turn around
to see what she was looking at. At the time I was praying it just
wasn’t paparazzi, it hadn’t even crossed my mind that
it could in any way be Katia.
The look on Katia’s face as
she walked away was almost indescribable; at first she just
looked emotionless, like she didn’t care about anything but
if you really looked you could see the heart break written across
her face. The feeling of betrayal and hurt that had to be running
through her was seen in the way she walked away, with her head
held high, yet tilted slightly to the ground as she quickly
walked out of there, dodging around anyone in her way.
And the look in her eyes when I
caught her at the taxi… God it broke my heart. She was
completely torn up, she had lost all trust in me and looked
disgusted to be around me. The way she flinched from my touch, it
was all so similar to how she acted when she was still terrified
I’d hurt her like that pathetic excuse of a man Zach did.
Maybe in her eyes I am worse than Zach; to her he probably seemed
kinder, being straight out harmful to her, while I gained her
trust and then hurt her.
God I f.cking hate Ashlyn, I hate
her. She can go die in some H.ll hole for all I f.cking care.
Using the back of my hand I wiped my lips off as if she had just
forcibly kissed me instead of it happening hours ago. Yes, I said
forcibly because there is no way in H.ll I would kiss her
willingly, I’m dating Katia, I love Katia. Not
that…
A round of laughter off in the
corner of the bar made me jump. I glanced over there from the
corner of my eyes and I saw a group of guys goofing off and
getting drunk. Turning my head back to my empty glass I
don’t remember finishing, I thought about how I should have
just walked away when I saw Ashlyn. She was off on the other side
of the room so I thought if I were to just duck my head and keep
a low profile she wouldn’t notice me, but that wan’t
the case.
I remember questioning how she was
there when a pair of pink converse appeared in front of me. I
slowly raised my eyes up to see Ashlyn smiling at me as she
loudly greeted me, as if she was purposely trying to let as many
people know she was talking to me. She started talking to me,
about stupid, pointless things I didn’t care about, and I
was starting to tell her that it was nice seeing her but I had to
go when her eyes flickered over my shoulder and then back to
mine. A devilish smile crossed her face before she kissed me,
wrapping her arms tightly around my neck...
God I needed to tell Katia. She had
to know what happened. She had to know I didn’t kiss
Ashlyn, she kissed me' she had to know before she tried to
break up with me. I just got her, and even though we’ve
been off lately I didn’t want to loose her. The only reason
we were even having issues is because Niall is a f.cking idiot
and let his mouth run.
After finishing the drink in my
hand (when did I get another one?) and paying I stumbled out of
the door. I had more to drink than I had originally thought, and
even in my drunken state I knew I shouldn't have been driving
but I did anyway. Luckily I picked a bar close to Liam's. It
took me half the time it should have to reach his place, and soon
I was stumbling up to the door and knocking.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Sorry! Had to split the chapter into two parts!
