Confetti fell as your heart felt broken. Robert seeked out xotchil before you. You knew this pain, you knew it well. As just a few years prior you received the same pain from the same man.
See you and robert are dating but he has a really bad habit of having emotional affairs with other women. The first time it happened was with rorie. Robert began having an emotional affair and ultimately dated her for about a year before begging you to come back.
Claiming he would never do it again.
And for the most part he hadn't.
You'd still catch him every so often seeking out other women but he never strayed.
That was until he began doing dancing with the stars with xotchil.
You could feel all the hard work both you and robert did to better yourselves go out the window.
You knew this cycle was toxic but when he loves you. He loves hard.
You decide to give robert an ultimatum.
Meaning you'll either lose him or he'll stop this pattern.
Either way you'll be finding out the truth about your relationship, and save yourself alot of heartache.
Approaching robert you knew you had to rip this bandaid off now or you know you'd never do it.
"Robert, can we talk got a minute?" You ask coaxing him away from xotchil
"Yeah okay, be back in a second love"
Love. The nickname typically reserved for you.
You felt as if you got stabbed through the heart.
As you find a quiet area you begin speaking.
"Do you have feelings for xotchil?" You ask
"What no, why did she say something?" Robert asks blushing slightly
"I can't do this again you broke my heart when you had the affair" you say attempting to hide the tears welling.
"Yeah but you kmow that was a mistake" robert defends himself.
"Robert I kmow you, better then you know yourself. I'm breaking up with you. I'll be back once you have figures out why you keep hurting me" you say finality in your voice.
For once robert is silent.
"Goodbye robert" you say walking off.
Robert wanted to stop you, he wanted to get on his knees and beg but ultimately he just let you go.
a long hard month of insecurities boiling.
Of questioning your decision
Of stalking his social media.
You ultimately decide the best course of action was to go get the rest of your stuff from Roberts place and leave him and the relationship in the past.
The journey to the zoo was hard passing the sights you used to sing olivia rodrigo in the car as robert drove hitting your heart
Arriving at the zoo the first thing you feel is a pair of arms wrap around you.
"Oh hey chandler how are you?" You ask politely
"I'm okay how are you?" He asks
"I'm good" you say as you both walk to meet the rest of the irwins.
The first to see you is grace. Chandler and bindis daughter.
"Auntie (Y/N)" she screams and you smile picking her up.
"Hi gracie girl" you say to her smiling.
"Hey (Y/N)" you hear a familiar voice say.
"Can we talk" he asks and you nos putting grace down slowly approaching robert.
Once you get to his place you go to begin collecting your stuff
"Please dont" robert says as you look shocked
"Just please hear me out" robert says
"I was an idiot I did things that cause you pain and heartache because I'm stupid. So incredibly stupid I thought that by hurting you by having these affairs gave me more options in the dating world because truthfully I don't think I'm good enough for you so I wanted to see who I am good enough for when you ultimately realised that your too good for me. And I know I'm lucky that I somehow tricked you into being in a relationship with me and I'm still not sure how I did that but if you'll give me a chance just one more measly chance I promise I won't do that again. I just I want you to come home hell I don't lock the back door anymore I leave the latch unturned so you can come if you want too, please come home. If you do come back I promise yo never ever hurt you like that again. Because the last month has been one of the hardest times of my life so please please come home."
You look at robert tears in your eyes you don't know what to say so you just hug him.
"Does this mean?" He asks and you nod.
Because yes he is an idiot and you can't help buy love him.
