C7 The Bar

You lay here with me, you're shutting down

I smell her on you, I'm focused now

I know what's going on in your head, yeah

I know what's happened here in our bed, yeah

Your phone is buzzing, so pick it up

I know she calling, so what the fuck

I should've known a cheat stays a cheater

So here we are....( Alarm - Annie M)

"Yahoo! Ice cream! I love ice-cream. "

" Serena , you know ..."

Serena cut me off before saying anything. " Ow! Come on Mars! How can you not like ice-cream? It's so cool to eat ice-cream. "

It's been an hour since we left the mall after shopping. And from then Serena is driving me mad. I know that she is only doing it because of me. She wants me to be happy. To joke about things again. But heartbreaks are something that totally changes you. It take your every desire. It make you feel like a loser.

"Siren , you know why I hate Ice-cream. Please! I don't wanna eat it. "

" I know Mars. That's why I'm telling you to let go of this. It's been three months. "

I glanced at her. " If I eat Ice-cream will you stop making that face? "

"Yes. I'll. " She said happily.

" Okay then. Give me ice-cream. " I said with a forced laugh.

" You know I love you Mars. " She said jokingly. She puts her hair behind her ear and said, "And you'll see one day you'll find such a person in your life that you'll be greatful that this happened. "

I smiled at her. She really knows how to cheer me up. You guys are thinking that why I hate Ice cream. It's because it was ice cream which made me & Cole ended up together. When I got pranked by none other than the playboys Cole came to me with ice-cream. And with ice-cream our bond started. We're friends for two years. I knew he was a player . So I never tried to have anything for him. But one day when we're eating ice-cream after school he confessed his feelings for me. He told me he loved me from when he had saw me. And he love me like ice cream. Sweet and innocent. I didn't believe him at first. But he kept telling me about it. That how much I meant to him. And I was a fool that I believed him. I believed that he loved me. He made me feel love which feels like water in the desert and now left me with nothing. I gasped again. This emptiness is never gonna leave me.

*************

" You're sure you can go alone??? " Serena said narrowing her eyes.

" Of course, Siren. I'm not a little baby. I can handle myself. " I told her happily.

" I know babe. I'm just telling you ..... Maybe you need some company ? "

" I'm fine, Siren. See you tomorrow. And you need to be there in hospital for your aunt. " I said.

We had planned a sleepover at Serena's. But her aunt was ill so their family had to go to hospital. Serena wanted to stay with me but I persauded her to go. She needs to be with her aunt.

" Did I ever tell you that how much I Love you ?" She said happily.

"You always tell me that. And I love you more. " I said.

" By the way don't forget to wear that outfit that I've bought for you tomorrow. " She said to me.

How did I forget that Sairen love to be a fashion model ? She is a ultimate diva and has awesome fashion sense. I smiled at her and bade her with goodbye kiss.

I was walking through the roads. I love walking. It makes me feel a lot of things. I can forget a lot of things. I was dreaming myself as a princess of a huge castle where I'm locked. I really wanna leave and feel things. I'm a little bit of strange, right? I know that. I love daydreaming. I feel like I can be anything when I dreams like that. I was imagining a scene of the prince & the fight of the monsters for me. And my prince would have won until I bumped to someone.

" What the hell, Mary. Do you keep your eyes on your hands? See where are you going? "

I looked up to see who it was. But it was too dark to see anyone.

" Where am I ? " I asked As if I was questioning myself.

" Do you have eyes Mary? " the stranger spoke again.

I can't see his face properly because of the streetlights voltage was going upside down. I was going to apologize and when I looked at the person whom I've bumped with and I saw Matt Flynn.

I wanted to say something but fursty I wanted to be sure where I am. I didn't understand where I came. It was like a narrow road with a club beside it . And this road was too dark. It reminded me of Knockturn Alley from "Harry Potter". I hope that this road is not that dangerous.

Wait a minute. My residence is not here. Oh! No. I've left my house behind. Crap! I was dreaming a lot. Fighting with the monsters etc. But when I came back to reality I found myself infront of this club named After Nights. How dumb I am? I forgot my own address?

"I'm sorry. I didn't see you. " I apologized.

" It's a pretty good excuse ." He said sarcastically.

" Why do you care? Is this road belongs to you, Flynn? No right. So stay away from me. " I barked at him.

" Hey! Don't be so uptight. I was just asking because I know your house is not here. "

" I w- was w-alk- ing." I said tremblingly.

" At this time, babe? "

He said winking at a girl from the bar. I felt my temper rising. It's not like I'm jealous, okay? It's like I was angry because of these playboy's antics.

" Jerk! & Shut up. " I said harshly.

"Dude, How long it takes to smoke?"

And a person came out of the bar asking Matt.

I looked at him. He has really black eyes and there were twinkles on his eyes. He has messy black hairs. But he looks so freaking handsome in it. STOP Brain! It's not right! But my brain ignored me. GREAT!

I totally stared at him. & Then I realized he is also staring back at me. It made me blush.

"YOU!!! " He said by looking at me.

Well this person is none other than my chemistry lab partner who had ruined my dress. Zakhar Hunter.

And then he eyed me & Matt suspiciously , " What's she doing here? " Zakhar said angrily. Why is he angry to see me here?

"I wanted enjoyment. So I came here. " I snapped.

"I'm not talking to you" he again ignored me.

"But you're talking about me!!!!"

Both of them ignored me. That's rude.

"Well, dude. She said she was walking. And she left her house far a long ago. I don't know what's going on her little mind. "

Matt said sarcastically while looking at the bar girl.

"I'm not little!!!" I argued which both of them ignored again. IDIOTS!

" You shouldn't be here, Mary. " Zakhar ordered.

" Why do you care? " I said feeling pissed off. First both of them ignored me and now this. How dare he order me like that? Everyone is treating me like some child who can't even take care of herself.

" Zakhar , bro I really want to relax. I can't deal with anyone right now. You see I'm busy. " He literally threw a flying kiss to the bar girl lazily.

" I can take care of myself. " I stated. Why do they treat me like this? Am I so weak that I can't even take care of myself? I was angry, very angry.

And when I was gonna leave I felt Zakhar's grip on my wrist. I eyed him in a look which shows , What?

"I'll drop you to your home." Zakhar said.

" I can take care of myself. I'm saying this for the second time. You don't have to worry about me , Hunter? " I said crossing my arms. I looked for a cab. Then I remembered I had left my purse at Serena's. Oh! Great!

" I can't leave you here. " He said by looking away from me.

" Why? " I questioned him.

" Because It's not safe here, Mary. Creeps are all over here. And if I leave you here your brother is gonna kill me. " He said but I don't know why I felt like he is lying. His dark eyes says something else.

" How do you know my brother? " I said. Oh! I forgot My brother is very popular. Everyone knows him.

" He is my sports buddy. And what're you doing Matt? " Zakhar questioned Matt.

Now I turned my attention to this manchild. Matt was literally flirting with the bar girl.

" What can I say? I know I'm someone girls obviously dreaming of. And don't be so uptight , sweetheart." He said winking at the bar girl again.

" You're pathetic , Matt" I screamed.

" Girls love me anyway. " And he went back to the bar . This guy is full of himself.

I was about to leave from there until I see him. I thought I had become a statue. Cole Adams. I felt like I'm trembling. My hands are sweating. And I was panicking. The whole thing is coming back. He is making out with some random girl. And the way he was doing it shamelessly I felt like puking. I was still waiting for him. And he was not affected at all. I thought I can't move. But I found Zakhar's grip on my shoulder.

" Are you okay, Mary? " Zakhar said with a concern in his eyes.

I hugged him tightly. He tried to jumped off but when I started sobbing he stayed. He was surprised but hugged me back immediately.

" Please drop me at home, Zakhar " I pleaded. I don't want to show him my tears. I don't want him to see me as weak.

He looked at me once and then the bar. And then he said, " Let's go. "
