Chapter 9
Fabian's POV-
What? I got Joy on to the couch and forced her to release me. She was smiling like a maniac. Impulse made me take her luggage and open my door. I looked at her as she shot me a look of confusion.
Joy: Fabes? What are you doing?
Fabian: Out.
Joy: Out? Fabes, don't be ridiculous.
Fabian: Get out, Joy.
She stared at me in shock.
Joy: What's wrong with you? Aren't you happy to see me?
I didn't answer because I knew that my answer would come out too harsh.
Joy: Is this about her? We've been over this! She's gone! She never cared and she never will!
Fabian: How would you know?
Joy: It's obvious, Fabes!
Fabian: Don't call me Fabes!
Joy: You know you love it! You did when she said it!
Fabian: She's Nina, Joy! You're not her!
Joy: I know that! It's because I'm better! Why can't you just love me? Just try!
Fabian: I'll never love you as long as Nina is in my heart!
Joy: You're not in her heart, yet you're standing up for her! Why?
Fabian: Because I love Nina, Joy! Not you! I never loved you! And I never will!
Joy remained silent and marched to the door, ripping her luggage from my grip.
Joy: You're making a big mistake, Fabian Rutter. I love you, but if I can't have you, no one can.
Fabian: Get out.
I slammed the door in her face, hoping it would be the last time. I sunk down in a chair and stared at the picture in the corner at the far side of the room. I got up and observed it closely. It was graduation day with Nina and I. Three hours before everything turned horrible. Before she left. I loved her and I still do somehow. All these years, I've been trying to lie to myself! There's no way I can deny it anymore. I truly love Nina Marie Martin. But, all hope for us is gone. She must be married and caring for children. At the very least, she's probably dating or she's engaged. I can't hope for a future with her, but I do hope she's alright. I can't afford to lose her. Not again. I need her back in my life and I'll do whatever it takes to save her. Even if I end up suffering for it.
