"Well that didn't go as planned". As he started the engine I put on my seatbelt.
"I hated that pasta".
"I fucking knew it". Pulling out into the road he turned the radio on. "You could have ordered something else".
"Not when I didn't know what anything was". I felt a little embarrassed. Jake was high end, he had taste, liked expensive things.
"You could have said something Leah and now I bet you're fucking starving". I noticed his grip tighten on the steering wheel. "I wanted tonight to be fucking perfect". He snapped.
"You think I didn't?". I hit back.
"You fucking hated it"....
"You don't need to swear". Turning my attention out the window I crossed my arms over my chest. "And I didn't hate it, it just wasn't my scene".
"Yeah burgers and dirty fries got it".
The rest of the journey home was quiet. It wasn't until he pulled off the highway and signalled left that I realised what he was up to. Biting back my smile I placed my hand on his knee.
"I appreciate the thought Jake. I loved that you planned tonight but maybe next time make it low key and not so expensive".
"You deserve the world princess"...
"Maybe". I shrugged.
Placing his hand on top of mine he brought it to his mouth placing a kiss on my knuckles. "Cheeseburger, fries and extra pickle?".
"And a strawberry milkshake". I grinned.
"I won't be long"....
While he was away getting me food it gave me a chance to go through my phone. I had never replied to Tommy and I usually deleted the message straight away but tonight I opened it.
'Hope you're missing me ;)'
Attached to the message was a photo of him and a random girl sucking face. Tommy was shirtless and the girl had next to nothing on.
Did he think that bothered me?
Tommy was the furthest thing from my mind. Moving away showed me who he really was. A two timing rat that didn't deserve me. I hate that I couldn't see it sooner.
How many times did he cheat?
How many people knew he was playing me?
Deleting the message I did what I should have done weeks ago. I blocked his number and deleted him from all my social media.
