Jack

It’s been about six months since Alex last came to see Miracle. Of all fucking days he picked today, the day I had found Vic having sex with some other person in our fucking bed. It broke my heart when I saw what was going on, and what made me even more pissed off was that Miracle was in her room, right across the hall. She could have walked out and saw what was going since he didn’t even think about closing the room door.

Of course Alex had to ask me what was wrong, he always knew when something was up, I hated that about him. I hated everything about him. I hated him for leaving, I hated him for breaking my heart, I hated him for making me love him, I hated him for even talking to me that one day back in eighth grade. But, I have to put all that behind me now. I was a grown man at the age of 23 and I needed to get over my past and focus on my future.

“No, he didn’t fucking cheat on you.” Alex said with a gasp and wide eyes. Just as he finished speaking, Vic started walking down the stairs with his suitcases and reached the living room.

“Jack-” I cut him off.

“Fuck off, Victor. I don’t give a shit what you have to say.” I shot at him. He was about to leave till I remembered something. “Wait, Vic.” I stood up and rushed over to him. He looked at me with hope in his eyes, yeah, no. “I need my ring back.” I said bluntly.

“Oh, yeah right. Here.” He took the ring off his finger with the world’s saddest look and it made me want to just grab his face and kiss him to make it all better, but I can’t do that. “Uh, well, I’ll see ya around I guess.” I just hummed in response and slammed the door shut right after he walked out.

I walked back over to the couch and sat as far away from Alex as possible and hid my face in my hands as I let the tears slip down. I felt Miracle put her little arms around me the best she could to comfort me. I looked up from my hands and brought my little girl into my arms as I held her tightly. She doesn’t understand what Vic did, but she understands that I’m hurting, and she has grown up with the skill of knowing how to comfort someone. Another thing she got from Alex.

“Jack, I am so sorry.” Alex said softly as he moved closer to me and put his arm around my shoulders. I didn’t want it there, I had been hurt enough, and I didn’t need any more hurt from the person I have loved since almost forever. Yeah, it’s been five years and I still loved him, I always will. But, love is not for me, it always fucks me over. I wanted to shake Alex’s arm off of me, but I didn’t have the strength to do so, so I just let it be as I held on to my sweet girl.
