Too Easy To Forget

Fandom: Star Crossed Myth (Love 365)

Pairing: Leon x Reader

“I warned you!” Leon says, his voice raising a little. You can see his chest rise as he takes a deep breath, rubbing his hand over his face.

You can feel the tears burning hot as you try to not let them fall. And the worst part is, he did warn you. He told you this was nothing serious, but after three months of consistently hooking up, with the best sex of your life, things just happened to change for you.

“I know you did, okay? I know! I didn’t mean for this to happen, but we’ve always been honest. I just can’t keep doing this, Leon,” You choke back the tears, feeling your bottom lip waver. You can’t look at him. You can’t look him in the eye, and at his height it should be easy enough to avoid. This is an absolute disaster and not at all how you wanted what was probably the last time you’d see him to go.

“I have to go back to the heavens. You knew this. I told you from the beginning how this was supposed to be,” He tugs on his hair a little, staying in your line of vision like he’s doing it on purpose.

“Do you think I wanted to fall for you? You think I wanted to end up feeling the way I do about someone I know is leaving and not worrying about what he’s leaving behind? You get the happy ever after in the heavens and I get to stay on Earth,” You scoff a little.

It’s like he thinks this is easy for you. You swore up and down you weren’t going to fall for him. He was too arrogant, demanding, and most times he was selfish with the meatballs you made for him, but dammit he could be sweet, too. He was caring and nice, he took his time whenever you asked him to and he’d always been up front, just like he’d said.

“Please don’t. You knew this was how it would work out. What did you think would happen? I am a God, you are just a goldfish. And don’t act like you don’t mean anything to me. You know I care about you, but you know this is how it’s suppose to be,” He says, absolutely trying to reason with you, but it was too late.

You feel the tears as they break loose and wipe at them quickly. Leon looks like he wants to step forward and help, but he also knows that’s not his place. Especially right now.

“I don’t know what I expected. Not after three months. I don’t know how you can be around and so consistent in someone’s life for that long and not have some sort of feelings for them. I’m not you, Leon.”

You have to wrap your arms around yourself as you lean back against the kitchen counter. He’s got an arm against the fridge right next to you, giving you a caring look that’s making your heart physically hurt.

“I can’t just shut someone out,” You mumble, “I should have known better. I knew better when this first started.”

“Come here,” He says quietly, opening his arms up for you.

And this time you can’t resist it even if you really want to. You lean forward, pressing into his chest and holding his waist tight. He wraps his arms around you securely, even rubbing your back. It does nothing to slow the tears and you both know you’re soaking a spot onto his shirt, but he doesn’t pull back at all.

So you take it in. You realize this is probably the last night you’ll get to have him this close. He goes back to his goddess when he’s in the heavens. You knew that from the start, too. It was like you were borrowing him, keeping him warm and ready for when she finally got him back.

And maybe that played a bigger role in why you were more upset than you realized. He was fully capable of caring about someone, making them an important part of his life. You just weren’t that person, no matter how much you were there for him or cared. And that really hurt.

Leon pulls away then, rubbing his hands up and down your arms. He ducks a little, trying to get you to look up at him. You finally do, sniffling a little. The tears are far from over, but they’re a little less out of control now.

“What do you want? I’m all yours tonight,” He whispers, “You want to sleep together, or you can yell at me. You can hit me if you really want to. Go ahead, take a swing.”

You laugh a little, hating that he knows how to lighten your mood this way. He’s got the softest smile on his face and it makes you realize that this is going to be tough. This is your last night that you get him all to yourself. Part of you wants to just end it how it started: sex and nothing more. But you know, and you think he probably does too, that it’s too late to just go with that.

“I don’t really know,” You say quietly, your voice hoarse from the sobs, “I’m scared to let you go. I don’t think I’ll ever get you back the way I’ve had you lately.”

He tucks a piece of your hair behind your ear, “Well, maybe we’re not supposed to. This was exciting and fun, but if I ever come back to Earth we might want different things. Hell, you might have someone new. We just don’t know.”

You look up at him finally. You want to commit him to memory then. You bring a hand up, pressing it to his cheek and running your thumb along his perfect skin gently. He turns his head and kisses your palm, sticking the tip of his tongue out just the tiniest bit to hit your skin. You both laugh a little. You’ll miss him, that much is true. He had been a steady presence over the last however many weeks, but somehow he’d blended seamlessly into your day to day life. Now you’d have to get used to him being absent on all fronts.

“Do you want me to leave?” He checks in, still leaning into your palm.

You shake your head, gently pulling him down by the back of his neck. He goes easily with it and leans in to kiss you, easily putting some pressure behind it. He traps you back against the counter before lifting you onto the surface. You’re finally level with his height, pulling back just enough to rest your forehead on his, trying to hold on just a little longer to him.

“Just one more night, okay?” You ask, though you’re sure he won’t say no.

“I’m all yours then. Whatever you want with me,” He nods.

You tangle your fingers in his hair, trying to decide how to spend the last hours. You think being tangled up in him is probably best. It’s already late anyways. “Can we just go lay down? I don’t have the energy to fight anymore or do much of anything.”

He smiles, reaching to grab your thighs, and hoisting you up. He carries you much easier than you imagine he should be able to, but it lets you have more time to just take him in. The muscles you can feel under his shirt are the same ones you’d held onto some nights, and you lean your head down on his shoulder. You’re lost in thought when he suddenly drops you onto your bed, pulling a small squeal out of your lips.

He strips down, absentmindedly tossing his shirt to you like he’d done so many previous nights. This time you shake your head though. You have to get used to letting him go. He understands, tossing you one of your own pajama shirts and getting under the covers with you.

It’s easy to find him then and get comfortable. You’d done it enough times, but there was always another tomorrow to do it again. Until now.

You waste hours talking about anything you can both think of to distract yourselves. But eventually your lids get too heavy and you’re slurring your words together out of exhaustion.

“Go to sleep, _____. It’s okay,” Leon says, but he’s not sure who he’s really saying it for.

You smile and follow his directions easily. You toss and turn despite his warm shape being right there with you the whole time. But when the sun wakes you up the next day you roll over to find an empty bed.

The sight builds an instant lump in your throat, and you’re immediately trying to swallow it down. You reach over and feel the sheets are cool, letting you know he was fully gone. You didn’t really get the chance to say goodbye. Not that you’re sure you would have been able to do it to his face.

You’re starting to think this was probably for the best when you see the flash of a red jewel on the pillow next to you. Your breath catches and you sit up, grabbing at the piece of jewelry. He’d left his necklace that he’d been wearing the night before. You knew he wore this necklace everyday, but you never imagined he’d leave it.

You shake your head, feeling the tears burn hot down your cheeks, not even bothering to clear them away. It was like a final goodbye from him. A way to remember him. He was easily your hardest goodbye yet, but you were sure you were too easy to forget for him.

SCM Headcanon Request: Gods In Love

Anonymous said: Hello! I absolutely love all of your posts and I think that you are absolutely amazing. Would you mind if I suggested a Star Crossed Myth request? I would really love it if you could write about all 12 gods in love with the MC, but she just doesn’t seem to notice that they care for her. Thank you for reading this and I love your work!!! :) 

♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡

Fandom: Star Crossed Myth Category: Fluff / Angst Character: Leon / Scorpio / Teorus / Dui / Karno Notes: I couldn’t do all 12 but here you go- I have slowed down on updating and writing requests- mainly because life is busy and I’ve written quite a few fics and I don’t want to repeat same plots just with different canons.

♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡

Leon As the Minister of the Department of Wishes and the most powerful god in the heavens (after the King), Leon has never ever wanted anyone. There is no need to, with his power to invoke physical pleasure, he could have anyone with a simple touch until he meets the former goddess.

Nothing annoys him more than requiring help  from a mere human, especially a goldfish who is so fucking clueless and oblivious in everything. She is so naïve and warm-hearted to a point where she keeps ending up getting hurt and deceived by friends and strangers.

His heart aches when he hears her ideal lover in a stupid game calls Truth or Dare, someone humble, easy and attentive, basically nothing like himself. That’s when The God of Leo eventually realizes he has developed feelings for her, he’s surprised and in denial for the first few days but as soon as she blushed at others flirtatious joke, he’s pissed. Not because he’s jealous but the fact that she has no clue of others feelings towards her. So Leon keeps her by his side 24/7 as he loves seeing her smile but also in attempt for her to see all his sides, even his rare caring side. He carefully lets down his wall for her, sharing his stories and concerns that he never ever tells anyone else. To him, she’s far more precious than any goddesses in heaven. 

Scorpio

Scorpio still remembers the time she takes care of him while he’s sick in bed, those cute rabbit shaped apples. They don’t taste the same without her feeding them to him, his cheeks turn pick when he thinks about her so he only misses her when he’s alone in his room. Picturing her cute smile, silly giggle and clumsiness. Her wavy brown hair, her flushed face when the other gods compliment her dress and how close she is with all of them.

Scorpio sighs but ever since he has fallen in love with her, it has become harder not to think of her all the time. He could not resist peeking her way whenever she’s in the mansion, he gets jealous when Ichthys’s hand is touching her or when she smiles at Dui’s kind words. She says Scorpio is too mean and swears too much. He tries to show her a kinder side of himself, he even begins to swear less.

But the former human doesn’t know what to do with his emotions. He wants to be with her all the time, so much that it scares the hell out of him. She begins calling him cute and he covers his embarrassment by teasing or being mean to her when what he really wants is for her to by his side. To hold her, to whisper sweet nothing to her ear, to be the person who makes her blush, to feel her body growing warm, to hear her moan his name, to want him as much as he wants her.

Teorus

The flirtatious god who loves being the center of female attention has no need to think twice when he compliments the former goddess. If flattery and intimacy would erase his sin and make him a god again, he would do anything.

He has heavily implied to her that he’s had many lovers but it still takes him by surprise when her tears run down her cheeks even though it is widely known that he never lets women into his bedroom; he has made her an exception that night.

He watches her, crying herself to sleep and he wonders just how much pain he has caused her. Was it the flirting that she takes the wrong way or sleeping with other women bothers her that much? Is it just the kind of jealousy that would fade away or has she given up on him for good? He thought he understands women, but she has him puzzled.

Her 180 degree change of attitude not only surprises Teorus, it nearly kills him. No one avoids him, not even his exs. The God’s confused for some weeks, and gradually beings to cut ties with his “girlfriends”. It hasn’t occurred to him that he has fallen in love with her till he’s becomes insanely possessive, leading to his epic confession to his one and only true love.

Dui

As a god who doesn’t particularly want his sin to be absolved, Dui simply enjoys her company till his dark sides slip out and scare the hell out of her.

The warm hearted and child-like god does what he know best when it comes to protection- avoiding the former goddess at all cost, making sure she has no chance of seeing the Dark Dui again even though it means the same for himself.

However her persistence and kindness not only force herself into both Dui’s lives but also their very souls, showing them the light and hope they have long forgotten. Her unconditional love conquer their differences, loving two sides of Dui as one- mentally and physically.

Karno 

The friendly, calm, and approachable God of Cancer has take a liking of her long before they even met and he intends to keep her in the dark until destiny has its own way to reveal the truth and of course taunt his feelings.

She’s over the moon for the reunion, to have eventually met her long time guardian angel while the vice minister himself attempts to develop further inappropriate feelings for a human. Leon would half tease and half encourage him to confess and take the girl with his own hands.

However, Karno remains afar, watching over her as she falls in love with another god because he understands loves come in all kind of forms and he has no intention to take someone who clearly doesn’t return the same affection. He simply hopes her to find true happiness and grants her every wish within power.

Broken Promises ~ Part 2

Requested by @elaera23 Here is the conclusion to ‘Broken Promises’ ... angsty fluff maybe...

Scorpio x Reader

It’s been a couple of days since Scorpio and you have talked. A couple of days since the fight that left you wondering if you had a relationship of any kind left. If Scorpio wasn’t willing to put forth effort to fix the problem between the two of you then neither were you. The day after the fight you found out you were in charge of the next big event at the planetarium. It became easier to forget about the blowout you and Scorpio had.

But as the days passed you began to regret blowing up at Scorpio, screaming at him. You had said a lot of hateful things. And if it was the King that caused this problem in the first place..you didn’t even want to go there. That was the day that you allowed yourself to fully breakdown and think about everything that had happened that night. The day you allowed yourself to mourn the loss of a relationship you now weren’t sure was going to be salvaged. It was the only time you let yourself give into the grief, because the next thing you knew you were throwing yourself head first into preparing for your next event, even more immersed than before.

You knew you were worrying the other gods, you’d have to be blind not to know. They let you go though, content on letting it run its course before you were back to normal. That led you to where you were now, three and a half weeks later, lonelier than you had felt in a long time, you were at the planetarium about to begin your presentation. A few minutes later you were making sure everything was all set. You noticed Dui lean over and whisper something to Ichthys, pointing out somewhere into the audience as he did so. Whatever Dui said to him caused concerned looks to appear on both of their faces. “-tell her?” You overheard Ichthys say. You were about to ask what was going on when they returned to their positions, acting just the same as they had before, only with an underlying look of tension. Ignoring them, you turned back to your podium and took a deep breath.

An hour later your presentation was already done, time flying by. “Thank you everyone, hope you enjoyed the show. Have a great night!” You said into the mic, causing your guests to erupt into applause. As the crowd filed out of the room you struck up a chat with Tauxolouve about what you were planning on doing afterward. You saw Dui and Ichthys lean into each other and start whispering again, the worried looks from before coming back. You were curious as to why they were acting so secretive all of a sudden and adjusted your position to be closer to them, allowing you to eavesdrop on their conversation.

“Should we tell her he’s here? We don’t even know if she wants to see him,” you heard Dui say, sounding unsure. “Just let her know, man. We should at least tell her so that she has a choice, you know,” Ichthys replied. What the hell were they talking about? You turned around to start interrogating them when you heard a low “oh shit” and froze.

Scorpio was trying to make his way through the crowd. “Looks like we don’t have to tell her after all,” Dui said, noticing you staring at Scorpio. He ran his hands through his hair before moving to your side. “You don’t have to talk to him, _____,” he told you, placing his hands just above your elbows, “We can get you out of here before he even knows you’re gone.” You smiled up at him, slowly shaking your head. “Thanks for the offer, but,” you took a deep breath before slowly releasing it, “you and I both know this is something I have to do.” He nodded his head in understanding, Ichthys walking over to stop by your side and grab your hand. “Knock ‘em dead tiger,” he smiled at you, giving your hand a small squeeze before letting it drop.

You were almost standing in front of Scorpio when he looked over and saw you. He went stiff, staring at you with a look of apprehension in his eyes. You continued past Scorpio, walking outside of the planetarium knowing that he would follow. Hearing footsteps behind you, you knew you were correct in your assumption. Once you were far enough away that you couldn’t hear the other guests inside, you turned to face him. Really looking at him for the first time since your fight, you drank him in. He looked tired, though you weren’t sure if that was because of his work as a punishments god or because of the mutual silence from the both of you for the past three weeks. For a few moments, the two of you just stood there, taking the other one in. It quickly became apparent that he had missed you just as much as missed him.

“Hey,” he said softly, still looking at you with that slight apprehension. His hands were stuffed into his pockets, feet slightly shuffling against the concrete sidewalk. “Hey,” you whispered back. It was like the two of you were in a different reality, separated from everything else. Like if either of you even spoke a bit too loudly you would be transported back, the safety and calmness disappearing. You watched as he inhaled deeply before starting to talk.

“I’m such a fucking idiot, ____,” he said to you, the apprehension in his eyes fading into a pleading look. “This is all my fault, I shouldn’t have fought with you like that. I’m sorry I missed your first event- fuck I’ve felt like such a dick ever since then. I can’t believe I put you through that,” he rambled on, “I don’t expect you to forgive me, not after some of the shit I said, I just,” his eyes were darting everywhere, a wildly frantic sort of expression settling over his face, “I just need you to know how sorry I am.”

His rant was making your heart ache. Not even a week after the fight all of your rage turned into numbing sorrow and misery and for him to be here right now telling you how sorry he was, how he didn’t even think you should forgive him, made you want to break down into tears. You couldn’t though, you wouldn’t let him see just how much this all affected you.

“Why are you here, Scorpio?” You questioned. It was clear as day that the question took him by surprise. He hesitated, looking down at his feet. “That night,” he began, still not bringing his gaze back up to you, “I promised you I wouldn’t miss your next event. I didn’t care about seeing or talking to you, hell I just needed to be here for you. Even if you didn’t realize it.” He finally looked up to watch your reaction and seeing your confused expression he continued talking. “I should have told that damn trickster to fuck off that night, but I promised you I’d be there for you. I’ll always keep that promise, it doesn’t matter if you know or not, if we’re fighting or if we’re not talking. I-“ he stopped himself, tearing his gaze from you. He inhaled sharply before he peered back at you, his head ducked down slightly. “I meant what I said. I wasn’t lying when I said I love you. I love you and knowing that it’s my fault all of this is even happenin’ in the first place-“ you stopped him from finishing his sentence as you started speaking yourself.

“Scorpio, it wasn’t just your fault. We both got so out of hand,” you breathed out a tiny laugh while reaching your hands up to rub your neck, “neither of us was completely at fault. It wouldn’t have gotten so out of control if I hadn’t fired right back at you.” “God, I’ve missed you,” he whispered to you, “I just want to go back to how we were before, but I don’t even know if that’s something you’re willin’ to do. Hell, I wouldn’t blame ya if you told me to get lost and never come around you again.” He frowned. “If you really think that I would do that then you’re an even bigger dumbass than I thought,” you told him, a small smile playing on your lips. “I’ve missed you too, Scorpio, more than I think you realize.” He began grinning widely, hope starting to blossom in his chest that maybe this could work again.

You quickly closed the distance between the two of you, your hands shooting up to cup his cheeks. Noticing his confused expression, you sped on. “Scorpio, if there’s one thing I’ve figured out during this whole shit fest, it’s that I’m so in love with you,” you rushed out. You continued studying his face as he began to blush.

“You still love me?” He questioned you, following your every move as you began giggling, nodding your head. He grabbed you close to him and picked you up, spinning you around as he crashed his lips to yours. The two of you smiled into the kiss, your hands remaining on his face. He slowly set you down, his hands never straying from your body, whether it be your waist or your hips or your face. It took a long while for the two of you to pull away from each other, content to continue kissing each other on the deserted sidewalk.

Scorpio pulled away first, brushing your hair away from where it fell into your face before leaning in to press his mouth next to your ear.“I guess something good came out of that fight after all,” he remarked, pulling away and laying a kiss on your forehead. You sighed in pleasure before gazing up at him. “This doesn’t mean you’re allowed to miss any more of my events and then hope it ends well,” you stated, eyeing him as he smirked. “Don’t worry,” Scorpio said shaking his head, “I’m not missing anything else.”

As Scorpio continued holding you in his arms, you thought to yourself. Life really does have a weird way of working things out, but you were done complaining. After all, what exactly do you have to complain about anymore?

Broken Promises ~ Part 1

Requested by @elaera23 Happy birthday dear! Here is some angsty Scorpio 🦂

Scorpio x Reader

You scoffed to yourself, pissed beyond belief at your boyfriend. At least you thought he was your boyfriend, but weren’t couples suppose to, oh I don’t know, actually be there for each other when they said they were going to? When they knew how much you needed them there with you, when they promised you they would make it?

No, you thought to yourself, you got stuck with the one that blew you off for a party in the heavens. You wouldn’t have even known where he was if it wasn’t for Altair. The worst part was that any other night you would’ve been fine with it. Yeah, maybe a little annoyed, but Scorpio was a god and under a shit ton of stress. You wouldn’t normally blame him, but tonight? God, he knew you’ve been waiting for this night for months. Your event had finally gotten the ok at the planetarium. Scorpio knew how nervous you were about this, had promised you that he wouldn’t miss it for the world. It wasn’t even like this was some last minute thing, you started planning for this almost two months ago.

Shaking your head to yourself, you unlocked your door and shoved it open. You felt the urge to throw the door shut behind you. It was hard to resist, you’ll admit that much. Walking further into your apartment, you thought about your performance from earlier. Was it even good, you wondered to yourself. God, you hoped so. As you opened your fridge door to get a bottle of water you heard a knock on the door. You released a sigh, quickly grabbing your water.

You stood there, watching the door while a look of thoughtful distaste settled onto your face. You were sadly well aware that even if you didn’t answer he would still be able to get in if he wanted to. Remaining where you were, you waited to see how long it would take for him to just let himself in. Apparently, he was more impatient than you thought. A few seconds later, the door opened and Scorpio stepped in looking around. He looked as good as he normally did, though a little more disheveled. His gaze zeroed in on you within moments, looking apologetic as he moved towards you.

“Go away, Scorpio,” you said, turning your back on him and making your way to your couch to sit down. He noticed your expression of resignation, with a hint of resentment if he was right, and suddenly he felt like a bigger asshole than he did before. He didn’t even realize he could feel like a bigger asshole. “Damnit I’m so sorr–“ he started before you stopped him. “I didn’t forget about the event, I promise,” he said, looking at you with pleading eyes, “that damn trickster just wanted to intervene. I’m sorry.”

You finally looked at him, staring in disbelief. Well there goes the anger you were looking for, you mused to yourself, getting to your feet. “Oh, is that all,” you sarcastically replied, “that totally makes it fine. Who cares that no one was able to calm me down before I started my presentation when I realized you weren’t there though, right?” The two of you were locked in a staredown now, neither looking away, too caught up in your thoughts. Scorpio’s mouth opened and shut, a range of emotions displaying themselves across his face.

Good, let him feel bad, your mind rumbled, it’s what he deserves.

“Don’t. Just don’t,” you sighed, still refusing to look at him. “I don’t want to hear whatever bullshit apology you thought up.” Just knowing he was standing in the middle of your hallway was enough to make your head ache. Why couldn’t you just be mad at him? It wasn’t fair that you had to feel hurt and pain, wasn’t fair that instead of wanting to scream at him you just wanted to lay down and cry. You should’ve been high on excitement and energy, out celebrating the success of something you’d worked hard on. You should’ve been able to forget about Scorpio as easily as he could apparently forget you.

”Damnit woman,” he told you, anger clear in his eyes, “I told ya it wasn’t my fault. I swear, I won’t miss the next one. I’ll make it up to ya.” You began to laugh darkly, watching as his face screwed up in confusion. “Sure, you won’t miss it.” You gave him a twisted smile, secretly loving how uncomfortable and guilty he looked. All of the hurt you had felt earlier had been converted to sheer fury and damn if you weren’t going to make him feel it. You could tell he was scrambling for something to reply to your words, his eyes fidgeting and landing everywhere, never actually settling. His tongue darted out of his mouth, wetting his lips before he started speaking again. “I’ve already said I’m sorry, fuck, I never wanted to go to that dumbass party. Why does it have to be such a huge deal,” he pleaded with you. At this point his hands had worked their way into his hair, gripping the back of his head. His words registered in your head, only furthering your rage.

“Why does it have to be a huge deal?” You screamed at him with wild hand gestures, your eyebrows furrowed in disbelief. Did he actually not realize how much this had meant to you? “Scorpio, I’ve been looking forward to this, and you missed it! Is this really not sinking in for you?” He was pissing you off more and more by the minute. “You think I don’t know?” He yelled back. Both of you had gravitated together during your yelling, now standing right in front of each other. He was getting really pissed off now and his pupils were blown wide and you doubted you looked much different. The fight was spiraling out of control and yet neither of you were ready nor willing to stop.

“No, Scorpio, I don’t think you do,” your throat was beginning to ache from all of the talking and yelling you’ve done tonight, first at the planetarium and now here with the man you thought you could depend on enough to show up for you. You were starting to regret not drinking at least a bit of the water you had gotten out when Scorpio showed up. “What I do think is that you didn’t believe it was as important to me as I said or else you would have been there,” you continued, shoving forward with your finger poking at his chest. You invading his space caused him to back up a few steps, but it only fueled his own anger. “So now it’s my fault that damn king is responsible for this?” He questioned you, his voice still booming throughout the apartment. “Know what? It doesn’t even matter,” you stated, your rage charging you forward, “because if you had really cared then you would’ve been there for me!”

“You know how stupid you sound,” he barked back at you, “of course I cared about going. It was a stupid game that fuckin’ trickster played just to get his kicks, you don’t have to read into it so much.” He made you so mad, trying to blame you for something even though he knows he’s in the wrong. “If I sound so stupid then why are you even still here?” You questioned, crossing your arms over your chest and glaring up at him. The audacity of him, coming into your apartment and then trying to twist you being mad at him into your own fault. “Because I love you,” he yelled at you, chest heaving from all of the shouting in the past few minutes. His statement caused you to freeze for a moment before you responded back.

“Don’t you dare,” you seethed, fists clenched at your side and eyes alight with all of the emotions swirling around inside your body, “you don’t have the right to say that to me, not now.” Who did he think he was? Did he really think some bullshit ‘Because I love you’ would make everything okay? He left you right when you needed him the most, abandoning you. “I don’t have the right to say that I love you, now?” He laughed condescendingly, scowling down at you with a dark smile curled on his mouth. “What a load of fucking bul—“

“Get out,” you cut him off. You glowered up at him from beneath your eyelashes, waiting for your words to process. “You’re telling me to leave now,” he asked in disbelief, looking at you with wide accusing eyes. He planted his feet down, only serving in making you snap. “Get out!” you screeched at him, grabbing the previously forgotten water bottle from where it was placed down on the table and chucking it at a place near his head. He ducked down startling fast, not that the bottle would have even hit him with your terrible aim. He stared at you in shock as you yelled at him.

“Leave, I don’t want to see your fucking face anymore!” you screamed at him, looking every bit as wild as you felt. He stood back up from where he was still crouched. “Crazy woman, I said I’m sorry,” he tried telling you as he backed his way to your front door, you refusing to listen as you pulled the door open and pushed him through it. He started to call out your name, but you already slammed the door in his face. You listened as there was a heavy sigh on the other side and the sound of a head being slammed on wood before you heard the snap of his fingers.

Sinking down against your door, your head fell forward into your hands. You were emotionally spent and an endless stream of thoughts were running through your mind at a dizzying speed. He loved you. Did he really, though? Or was it just a ploy to get you to feel guilty and forgive him? You laughed bitterly to yourself, rubbing your hands up and down your face. Wrapping your arms around your knees and pulling them up to lay your upper body on, you placed your head down. Why did Scorpio have to make you feel so many emotions, and why did love have to be one of them?
