These are the first two chapters to get a feel of the story. It's probably a short story really... Thanks for reading! x
Caitlyn's POV
The next day, I decided to go jogging to take my minds off of things for a while. I was so sick of Nate. He had never done this before but who wouldn't want to pass up the chance to go on a date with some hotshot model who's prettier than your own girlfriend.
Fuck him. Fuck his brother, Shane. Fuck everything!
I bit my lip as I listened to 'Gold' by Imagine Dragons. I was jogging in the park because it was a semi-nice day. The sun was out. Children were playing chase or playing with their dogs... Shit, I should have grabbed Jojo while I had the chance. Nate's probably forgotten about my poor baby.
When everything, everything, everything you touch turns to gold, gold, gold
When everything, everything, everything you touch turns to gold, gold
Ooh, gold, woah!
Ooh, gold, woah!
Ooh, gold, woah!
Ooh, gold, woah!
I slowed down a bit until I stopped and placed my hands on my knees, breathing heavily. The intense ringing in my ears and the pain in my head caused me to lower my phone volume a bit.
I walked over to a tree and used my hand to lean against it as I closed my eyes and breathed in and out.
"Breathe, Caitlyn." I mumbled to myself. "Just breathe..."
I tried not to think about Nate and her kissing, their hands all over each other as my breath hitched in my throat. Not here, not now.
"Come on, Caitlyn." I whispered, trying not to cause myself to have a panic attack or something. "Br-breathe!" I was so desperate to call Mitchie but she was in a meeting, trying to explain that she had 'family issues' to attend to, causing her to pause her tour. Sorry, Mitch.
Why did he do this to me? I thought that we were fine. I thought that he was okay with not having sex all the time because whilst I enjoyed it, I was hurting down there and it was awkward to say the least. Nate had told me that he didn't mind going against his beliefs because he was going to marry me anyway.
Oh fuck. I felt like collapsing. "You stupid, bitch." I mumbled to myself. "This is probably why he cheated on you..." I said, rubbing my head.
I turned the volume up higher again.
Statues and empires are all at your hands,
Water to wine and the finest of sands.
When all that you have's turnin stale and its cold,
Oh you'll no longer fear when your heart's turned to gold.
Who can you trust
(Who can you trust)
Thank God for replays. I loved Imagine Dragons. Their songs always called out to me. Strange but I think that I would benefit more from dating one of the members.
At least he wouldn't cheat on me.
I put my phone back in my pocket and placed my other hand against wall and stretched.
I'm dying to feel again,
Oh anything at all,
But oh I feel nothin', nothin', nothin', nothin'
"Feel nothin', nothin', nothin', nothin'..." I whispered, closing my eyes and breathing in and out. I felt my wavy hair blow around my face and realised my hood had been blown down. Oh, well. If the paps find me, I can tell them that what I think about Nate Gray and his whole cheating spree is total bullshit and he could go fuck himself.
When everything, everything, everything you touch turns to gold, gold, gold.
When everything, everything, everything you touch turns to gold, gold
(Ooh, gold, woah
Ooh, gold, woah
Ooh, gold, woah
Ooh, gold, woah)
I actually felt the headache increase so I turned down the volume again and jump when I felt arms enclose around my waist, supportingly.
...
Nate's POV
"I'm taking you home." I said, putting her hood on and leading her out the park.
"You're lucky I have an headache otherwise I would totally murder you for scaring the shit out of me." she said, pushing away from me.
"Are they getting worse?" I ask, stuffing my hands into my pockets.
"Were you stalking me?" she asked back, folding her arms.
I really wasn't. Jason sent me out because I was close to punching Shane. I mentioned the whole Mitchie thing to him and he took it bad, lashing out at me. So, Jason said that I should have a run, clear my head and that was what I was doing until I saw Caity in the park. I watched as she swayed and leaned against a tree for support. I contemplated on whether to help her or not but when she was about to faint, I had to do something.
"No. I got into a fight with Shane and Jason sent me on a run." I replied.
"No, they're not getting worse." she said instead. Way to answer my question ten minutes after I ask it!
"I'm sorry, Caity. Can we actually talk about this?" I begged.
"Talk about what? The fact that you cheated on me on somebody who is way above my league. I know I'm not as pretty or as gorgeous as the next one but I am human and I do have feelings."
"I know, I never ever intended to cheat on you. I was even calling you and texting you hoping that you would reply. Mitchie told me you were unavailable for the whole day and I felt lonely."
"So you went and got it on with another girl?" she asked, furrowing her brows.
"It never was meant to happen. I just wanted to have one drink with her to thank her for her help. I never intended for it to expand to the level that we slept together or anything. If it's any consolation, I was thinking about you the whole time." I tried.
"Are you fucking-" she stopped herself to take a couple of breaths. "Go away."
I smiled when I wrapped my arms around her waist and picked her up, walking home.
"Let me go." she sighed, weakly.
...
I placed her on our bed and laid down beside her, stroking her hair out of her face. "I know you're lying.
"I can handle them." she whispered, placing her hand on mine. "This doesn't mean anything. I'm just too tired to argue now keep rubbing my head."
I chuckled and massaged her forehead before placing a kiss on it.
"Caity..." I said softly.
She didn't reply as her eyes were closed and her hand had slacked.
"Caitlyn?" I asked more firmly. She still wasn't responding. How could she have fell asleep heavily within a minute.
I pressed two fingers to her neck and jolted upright when I felt no pulse.
"Caitlyn!"
