How do you sleep when you lie to me? - Keanu Reeves
A/N: number 18 on my prompt list! Thank you for requesting it @Anon. Let me know if you would like to read a part 2!
Warning: Feels, Sorry not Sorry
Keanu suggested that you went on a holiday with your friends. “After six months of hard work you needed to relax on a warm beach and a cocktail in your hand.” He told you while the two of you talked about work while enjoying a nice cold beer.
You and Keanu were dating in secret for a few months and it was amazing. The two of you surprised each other with special dates and amazing food. You were falling for him hard. He quickly became your best friend, your lover and your world. You felt like he was your missing piece and that he completed you.
And that's was why the following news hit you extra hard. Tears rolled over your cheeks as you saw the footage of Keanu kissing a woman on your TV.
“Keanu Reeves back with his EX Sarah Green?! “ The news reporter said exiting.
“Please tell me this isn't true,” You whisper while feeling that your world was falling apart. “It looks pretty real,” Alex said while turning the sound of the TV up.
”Keanu Reeves was just spotted kissing his ex Sarah Green in the streets of Los Angeles, look at how cute they are!” The woman added as the camera cuts back to Keanu and Sarah making out.
“There were rumours about Keanu dating Y/N Y/L/N from the movie ‘Knight’ but by the look of this video, that’s all fack news.” The reporter said as the footage gets cuts back to her.
Tears rolled over your cheeks, you felt angry, betrayed, lost and abandoned.
“Babe?” your friend Lisa asked as she placed a hand on your shoulder. You didn't respond but just ran into the bathroom, locking it behind you.
The two looked at each other while slowly realising what was going on here.“Shit, you were dating him!” Lisa later added as they ran towards the bathroom.
“Lass open up, let us in,” Alex said. You dug your nails into your head as you heard the woman on the TV talking about the rumours of you and Keanu dating.
‘Why did he do this? Am I worth nothing to him?’
“Lisa get me a screwdriver” Alex whispered to Lisa as she turned the TV off. “Babe, why didn't you tell us?” Alex asked as she heard your breathing faster.
“We weren’t allowed,” You said while crying from anger and disgust. “Well, that’s bullshit!” Alex said as she placed the screwdriver in your bathroom lock.
"Babe, let us in. Let us help you?"Lisa said. You doubt at first but after a split second, you decided to open the door.
Alex and Lisa pulled you into a hug as you stood in the opening of the bathroom door. “Come on Babe, he doesn't deserve your tears. let's have some fun and let's forget about that dick” Alex said as she pushes your hair behind your ear.

‘Fuck what did I do’ Keanu taught as he woke up the next morning, his eyes hurt and so did his head. His closes were gone and the sheets of his bed were messy. He saw everything double as he slowly stood up.
He probably got drunk with you last night, just spending one last night together before you left on your holiday. Keanu smiled as he walked down the stairs, smelling that you already made breakfast for the two of you.
“Goodmorning Y/N” Keanu spoke as he looked at your figure wearing his shirt.
“I'm not her Keanu,” a woman's voice told him. Keanu grew worried as his vision got clearer “What’s going on?” he asked her angry and confused.
“Don't you remember? We found each other at the bar last night” the woman said. Her voice was cold and honeyed, only one person had a voice like that.
“Sarah?” Keanu said after taking some paracetamol and ibuprofen. “Bingo” she laughed as she flipped a pancake and took a sip out of your coffee mug.
“You didn’t want to talk to me, so I may have slipped something into your drink that would help me with that. “ Sarah said while pouring him a cup of coffee.
“Let’s just say that I got to say what I wanted to say and so much more,” She said while winking at him.
Keanu grew angry and slapped his coffee mug, letting it fall onto the ground. The sound of the cup falling onto the ground made Sarah jump, letting your cup fall onto the ground. Both cups breaking into tiny pieces.
Keanu stood in front of her, almost growling he asked her. “What did you do!” She just smiled. “Check your phone”
He ran back to his jacket, taking his phone out of his pocket. Missed calls from friends, news articles about him and Sarah dating for months and worried WhatsApp messages popped up on his screen.
“I taught you didn’t want anything to do with her?”, “Weren't you dating someone else?”, “Keanu get that woman out of your life. You deserve so much more, you deserve someone like-”
“Y/N” He softly spoke while searching your chat on Whatsapp. Keanu tapped on your profile picture, but he couldn't see it anymore.
“Get the fuck out of my house” Keanu screamed to Sarah as he pointed to the door. But she was already gone by the time he turned around.

“Lass wake up, we have to check-in,” a small voice told you while lifting the hood of your hoodie. You simply replied with nodding yes and stretching your body.
Your head still hurt from last night, and so did your heart. You wanted to cry, to scream, to forget and to punch something. But you decided to ignore it, for now, he didn't deserve your attention any more.
Alex checked you guys in as you and Lisa decided where to eat. “Aren’t you that actress from ‘Knight’?” the woman behind the desk asked, as she handed Alex your passport’s back.
“Yes, that's me” You softly replied while placing your hood back onto your head. “I'm a huge fan, can I please get an autograph and a picture?” she asked nervously.
“Sure, but I don't have any pen or paper with me,” You replied while faking a laugh, you always enjoyed meeting fans. But you just couldn't smile right now.
“I do,” she said while grabbing her phone, a pen and a notebook. Alex took the picture of you and the girl as Lisa held onto your bag. The girl had a huge grin on her face as you placed your autograph onto her notebook.
“Lass, let's go were hungry,” Alex said to you after you and the girl chatted for a few minutes. “ I'm sorry but I have to go, have a nice day!” You say to the girl while walking away towards your friends.
You swung your bag over your shoulder while walking towards the door that leads to the gates, ready to grab something to eat something at the airport Starbucks.
“WAIT!” a voice screamed, you turned around thinking that it was security. But it wasn't, you were face to face with the men who just broke your heart.
“I'm so happy that I found you,” Keanu said while he ran towards you, past the check-in desk towards the yellow line. Once he got too close to the yellow line he got stopped by two security guards.
“Sir, you aren't allowed back here,” the man said to him, pointing to the yellow line. “I know, I'm sorry. I just have to speak with her” Keanu told him while looking at you.
“Fine, just stay behind the line,” the guard said. You stood 2 meters away from the line, creating a safe distance between you and him. He looked at you and you at him, emotions ran through your head as you searched to the right words.
“Honey liste-” He started, but you quickly cut him off. “Don't you dare to call me that,” you said with tears in your eyes as your hand form a fist.
“How do you even sleep when you lie to me? I told you how hard it was for me to trust someone and now you pull something like this behind my back,” you told him, trying to hold back your tears.
“I feel so disgusting, like I was just another girl to you,” you said while being interrupted by Keanu. “Your not! Love, you are the only on-”
“Try repeating that sentence with your tongue in her mouth, Keanu. I saw the footage Keanu, and the pictures from the past few months. You lied to me, over and over again.” You said while looking straight into his eyes.
“I just wonder if what we had was real,” you said while turning away, walking towards your friends.
“Babe?” you heard him say. Before you entered the door you turned around one last time.
Lynn was the fifth calf and daughter of Stella and Bingo, and the first calf born at Port of Nagoya Public Aquarium.
It would also be the 29th birthday of Bjossa and Finna’s first calf, a female who was also the first calf of Vancouver Aquarium.
41 years ago, in 1976, Gudrun and Kenau were moved to Dolfinarium Harderwijk two weeks after their capture. Kenau was destined for SeaWorld, while Gudrun would stay for many years.
26 years ago today, in 1991, Kenau died pregnant at SeaWorld Orlando. She had only been sick for a few days, and the necropsy revealed bacterial pneumonia and septicemia, as well as a twelve month old male fetus who lived until his mother's death.
