How can this happen to me?

Chapter Twenty Five

It's almost 9pm and I decide to call Adam, it goes to voicemail after several rings. Great he's now even talking to me, well this is pathetic maybe I shouldn't have agreed to giving him a chance.

I knew this is how relationships go I've seen Emily go through her fair share it's one of the reasons I've been so guarded, that and what I went through. I've come close to telling Adam what happened when I was a teenager, now I'm glad I didn't share so much with him.

I call Emily instead, we chat about what's happened and she tells me she's coming by tomorrow I can't wait to see her I need her right now.

My phone starts buzzing about half hour later, "Hello" I say acting uninterested.

"Hi babe I'm really sorry about earlier, please don't be mad with me I just saw you laying there with him and I flipped. I love you so much I can't handle the thought of you with another guy. Can I come see you please?" Adam pleads barely pausing for breath.

"I'm not really sure it's a good idea, you know I love you too, but I can't handle this drama. Lucas is my friend and he was just hanging out with me to take my mind off everything" I feel like I'm going to cry.

"Please babe, I need to see you" he let's out a sigh.

"Ok, I'll see you soon?" I ask.

"I'm already outside" I can't believe the cheek of him what if I had said no.

"You're so cocky I could have said no, Mum's up ring the bell" He hangs up.

Knocking softly Adam walks in my room, he's carrying a beautiful boquet of flowers. He puts the flowers down and puts his arms around me, picking me up I wrap my legs around his waist. He kisses me like he can't live without me.

"Scarlett I really am sorry, I didn't want to leave you this morning my meeting was intense and then I just wanted to come back to you and seeing you with him took me by surprise" He kisses my neck and I look him in the eyes.

"There was no need for you to react like that and I'm glad you've realised it now, I'm with you and only you so let's forget this and move on".

"Ok, so you forgive me?" he asks putting me down and handing me the flowers.

Smelling them I smile at him "Yes on one condition".

"Anything for you gorgeous" he sits down next to me.

"You can go for a drink with Lucas and apologise for earlier."

"Fine it'll be nice to meet this new friend of yours anyway" somehow I don't think he means it.
