Victoria's pov

"I can't believe you're actually leaving. I mean, I'm happy that you're better but I'll miss you" I said as I hugged Velma for the hundredth time today.

"You can always come and visit me at my home." She squiggled something on a paper and handed it to me. "Here. This is my address. I look forward to your visit" She smiled, but I barely returned it.

"I know you're gonna miss my wonderful company," She winked. "But I have a feeling you are sad about something else"

I sighed and gave a short nod. "I just didn't have the best night"

I could've had the best night, but someone just had to ruin the moment.

"Wanna talk about it?" She asked willingly, but I shook my head saying no.

I honestly didn't think I would be this hurt about it. Who would've thought? One man hurt me twice in the same night, just by uttering a couple words. Damn, I've gone weak.

It even hurts to remember it all.

***Flashback****

"What did you just call me?" I asked as I jumped out of his grasp. His eyes widened in horror as he attempted to hold me again. Oh no you don't.

"Victoria listen-"

"So now you know my name" I seethed. "Wow I should've known better" I whispered, running my fingers through my hair.

"It's not like that. My mind just wondered for a minute, I was thinking about you all along"

Yea right.

"It's okay. It's not like we're together or anything, you don't have to apologize or feel bad" I mumbled while fiddling with the end of my hair.

He stared at me as if he wanted to say something, but didn't know how to. I took it as a chance to escape this nightmare.

"I um- I need to get to bed. I'm tired. Goodnight and don't worry about it"

He looked skeptical but eventually sighed in defeat and left my room, not before whispering a shaky 'goodnight' first.

I know I told him that it was okay, but in reality it was far from okay. It affected me greater than it should've.

I know this Ella girl means something to him.

I know because the first time he saw me, that's the very same name that he called me.

And it hurts.

***End of Flashback***

"Victoria dear" Velma called, snapping me out of my little daze. "Seems as if I lost you there" She chuckled. " I was just saying that if you ever want to talk, you know where to find me" I simply nodded with a smile.
