Dylan’s POV
“YOU DID WHAT!” My dad yelled.
“I-” I hadn’t even started talking.
“WHAT THE HELL!” he kept freaking out.
“Relax” I said then got up to get some juice.
“What made Avery say that?” my dad heard from someone what happened at school between Liam, Tessa, Avery and I. He heard
about what she said to me and knows I’m at fault without even getting the story’s details.”
Well… I told Liam to put Avery on a leash” I said then got to the kitchen.
Put your mate on a leash.
I ignored the guilt that built up in me.
“ARE YOU DUMB?!”
I sighed then got the juice out from the fridge. I never something to drink.
“Okay… okay. Why did you say that”he tried calming down.
“She attacked Tessa” I said while pouring in the juice.
“Tessa? Tessa? Who cares about Tessa?” My dad says there’s something wrong with her and I agree.
“Dad…” I trailed.
“I know Avery would never hurt that girl on purpose. She’s done a lot for her”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~’
‘Dylan. I’m doing this for Tessa’
‘What do you mean let it be? He hurt Tessa!’
Avery’s voice rung in my head. Avery once cared so much about Tessa.
“So she must’ve been provoked”.
“Tessa said Avery was bullying her as usual but this time she stood up for herself then Avery went over board” I drank my juice
“Your mate is a fucking liar”
“She’s not… Avery is”
“I rose that girl up myself”
“So?”
“Avery is nothing close to a liar”
“Then why did she lie bout her feelings for me?” I made eye contact with my dad.
“You always make stupid assumptions… You’re not even trying to understand the situation.”
“If she actually loved me she would have spoken up when they were accusing her of playing me” I said plainly.
“I thought you loved her”
“I still do” I admitted “I can’t stop” i groaned, drink the juice, whole like it was meant to be alcohol.
“If you actually love her… You wouldn’t be able to hurt her”
“Dad I love her. Fuck I’ll love her till my last breathe… but she played me… She took my feelings as a joke… She was just having fun with me-”
“You’re an idiot. She didn’t play you, it’s a misunderstanding and I’m gonna prove it. Your honestly gonna regret what you’re doing… You could loose your best friend”my dad fumed.
“I doubt if she still sees me as a friend”
The doorbell rung
My dad got up then walked to the door and opened it.
”Hey-” before the person could complete her statement he slammed the door on her face then walked back to his seat.
“Tessa right?” I guessed.
“Yeah”
“What a pain” I sipped my juice.
“You insulted Avery for her” my dad rose an eyebrow.
I looked away
“You only said what you said because your were hurt?” my dad had a disappointed look on his face.
I was disappointed in myself as well. Why wouldn’t I be. Look at the mess I’m in now.
‘Say that again! Bastard!’ Avery’s voice made me shiver.
Someone knocked at the door again.
Dad stood to open the door but I stood as well so he sat.
I wonder why he’s always so excited when it comes to the door.
I walked to the door then opened.
“Dylannnn!” Tessa grinned then pulled me in for a hug.
I groaned.
I should’ve let dad open it again.
She broke the hug “So can I come in?”
I turned to see my dad’s expression.
He was gone already.
I sighed then turned my attention back to her and nodded.
“Great!” She pulled me in along with her then shut the door behind her.
I stared at her, my eyes obviously asking why she’s here.
She didn’t say anything… she just starred back, maybe trying to stare up a romantic mood or something.
I got irritated, by the thought then turned to start heading to my room but she held my hand.
I pulled my hand out of her grip feeling disgusted then left to my room.
I could tell she was following me.
Her footsteps were loud.
As soon as I got to my room I tried slamming the door but she held it.
“This doesn’t make sense” she said while opening the door wide enough for her to come in.
“Yeah… I can’t seem to understand why you’re here” I frowned.
“I just wanted to talk to my mate”
“We’ve talked enough” I stretched “Can you please get out?” I asked trying not to sound too irritated by her presence.
“No” she smiled.
Why’s she smiling?
I
groaned
“You said that for me… You love me” she smiled.
I face palmed
“You just don’t understand what you’re feeling for me Dylan”
“Disgust” I murmured then walked to my desk.
She followed “You should really throw this away” she picked up a picture of Avery, looking at it with disgust.
I glared at her, making her drop it carelessly.
I picked it up.
“Choose one Dylan” she folded her arms.
I rose an eyebrow.
“Avery or me?” She smiled.
Is she serious?
“Oh no… It’s such a hard choice” I rolled my eyes. My voice filled with sarcasm.
I dropped the picture “Leave… I’ve gotta have a bath” I said then took off my shirt.
“I wanna join you” she smirked then took off her shirt as well.
“Get the out”
“Geez Dylan… Don’t act like you don’t want this” she smiled, rubbing her boobs.
“What do I have to do to get you out of here” I asked, grabbing a towel a tossing it over my shoulder.
I’ve never been so irritated.
“Mark me” she smiled.
I stared at her for a while.
“You like the idea?” She spoke up.
“No” I said bluntly “I’d rather kiss a dead rat” I frowned.
She rose an eyebrow “I’m your mate, Dylan”
“So?”
“You’re gonna have to do this eventually”
I hissed
“Dylan, I’m tired of this behavior!”
“Then reject me. Damnit!” I hit the desk.
“No” she frowned “I’ll never deprive you of me!”
“What?” I almost laughed at what she just said.
“It would mean a lot if you just reject me”
“If you really didn’t want me as a mate, you would’ve done the rejecting”
“I made a promise” I sighed.
“To who?! Avery?! The same person you insulted?” She yelled.
I closed my eyes, trying not to remember her reaction when I said she should be put on a leash.
“You don’t love Avery Dylan. You love m-”
“Enough!” I yelled making her jump.
“I love Avery with every piece of me. I meant nothing I said to her”
“She belongs to someone else”
“I don’t care” I shrugged “Avery’s mine… She’ll always be mine”
