Don't Say Goodbye

Chapter 21: I'm Done
You don't remember how but somehow you managed to pick yourself up and drag yourself home. As you passed every single person and cursed them for their blissful looks on their faces. You balled your hands into fists and clenched tightly digging your nails into your skin. You grinded your teeth as you made the long journey home. "Sempai?"
You turn to see Momoshiro coming out of the convenient store with a Popsicle. "What are you doing here?" He asked approaching you.
You shrugged your shoulder. You really didn't want to have to deal with him. "I needed to go do something before I got home."
Momoshiro nodded his head and looked at you and then at his popsicle. "You want one?" He asked.
You shook your head but you were craving a chocolate popsicle. "No, it's fine."
Momoshiro shook his head and handed it to you. "Wait here, I'm going to get another one."
Before you could protest he jogged back to the convenient store to get another one.
"So what did you have to do?" Momoshiro asked you as the two of you walked towards the general direction of your house.
"Nothing really." You lied as you tossed your popsicle stick into the trash bin, "What about you?" You asked.
He shrugged. "I had a craving for ice cream."
"Thanks." You said.
He smiled. "No problem."
You nodded your head and the rest of the way the two of you walked in silence. As the two of you approached your house Momoshiro stopped. You turned to see him staring at you with determined eyes. "What is it?" You asked already having an idea of what he wanted to say to you.
"I'm sorry for pushing myself on you before." He said taking a sincere bow, "I didn't mean to pressure you in anyway."
"It's alrigh-"
"It's not!" Momoshiro shouted.
You stayed silent. He let out a sigh. "I really like you Sempai…I really do. I would do anything to have you look at me like you do with Tezuka-Sempai."
Your heart ached…he didn't know…no one knew. You smile weakly. "I see." You whisper fearing your voice might waver.
"I'm going to try my best to win you over! And have you fall for me." Momoshiro said determined.
You nodded your head. "Good luck, Momoshiro-Kun."
Momoshiro smirked and nodded his head. "Good night Sempai."
"Good night, I hope I didn't cause you any trouble." You said.
He shook his head and smiled. "No problem at all, I'd walk you home no matter what the circumstances were."
"Thanks."
You shut the door and headed up stairs it was only then that you realized your phone was buzzing. You pulled it out of your bag and your heart began to ache once more. The caller ID was Tezuka. You fought over whether or not to pick it up. You ended up picking it up. "Hello?" You said.
"Did you get home alright?" He asked in his usual robotic voice.
"Yes.' You said.
Silence filled the conversation. "What did you call for?" You asked, not in the mood to dig around the bush.
He cleared his throat. "Are you alright?" He asked.
"Never been better." You lather with sarcasm
"Didn't seem that way at the train station."
You gritted your teeth at the thought. "I just had a little break down."
"Was that what you call it?" He asked.
You took deep breaths trying not to scream. "What are you trying to say Tezuka?" You asked in a whisper.
"That you broke down."
"And whose fault do you think my break down was caused by?"
Silence…pure awkward silence. "Is that all you wanted to tell me?" You asked feeling your anger wise, "Just to rub in my face that I broke down in front of who knows how many people because I still love you?"
Silence…yes, don't say anything Tezuka. Stay silent and let me continue talking. Maybe you left the phone to go do something else. "What are you calling because you want me back because of my stupid out break?"
"(Y/N)." He whispered…almost in a pleading voice, "You didn't let me finish."
"I don't want you to finish." You snap, "I'm tired of being dragged around by you!"
"I'm tired and I just want to stop this stupid and childish game of cat and mouse."
"(Y/N), just listen."
"No!" You screamed, "I'm sorry Tezuka I can't take this anymore! This is the last time we'll speak to each other over the phone, good bye."
And that was the end. And that night you cried yourself to sleep…mourning…mourning and letting everything you felt for Tezuka out. That was it, you were done playing this game.
I'm sorry for the long delay of the chapter _
