Hunter Rowland: Fight
How did we get here? How did we start screaming and throwing things around the room when we had been so loving not even an hour before? The Hunter I knew would never shout obscenities at me and I'd certainly never swear back at him, but we weren't us anymore.
"You're so frustrating! I can't listen to you anymore!" Hunter yelled. "You're the reason why I hate relationships!"
"If I'm so awful, why do you stick around?" I demanded angrily. "You can leave any time you want!"
"Don't pin it on me!" he spat. "You were talking to that guy because you wanted to make me jealous!"
"Contrary to your belief, I don't talk to my friend just to make you jealous," I said witheringly. "And I don't say anything when girls come up to you and kiss you right in front of me."
"They're my fans!" he paced past me, hands thrown up in exasperation. "You're just looking for an excuse for what you did instead of admitting that you're a slut who only wants attention!"
I recoiled as if he'd just slapped me. "You know how much I hate that word. I get it online every day from people who don't even know me and now I'm getting it from the one person I thought was on my side."
Hunter didn't make a peep or move a muscle as I grabbed my purse and left his house. My last view of him was his stony, angry face and a cold glare. It broke my heart to leave, but he had crossed a line. All I knew was he didn't respect me and I couldn't stay any longer,
Six weeks later...
"Y/N!" a voice behind me called.
I turned around and scanned the food court, but didn't see anyone. It was only when they burst through the crowd of people that I saw Brandon. He walked over, eyes wide as saucers.
"I didn't know if it was you," Brandon pulled me into a hug. "How have you been?"
"Okay," I said evenly as he sat down across from me. If he was out, Hunter couldn't have been too far behind.
"Just okay? We haven't seen you for more than a month," Brandon frowned. "What's been going on in your life?"
"School," I replied. "This is the first break from studying that I've taken in a while. I needed some clothes."
"Right," Brandon nodded. "Ever think about talking to Hunter again?"
I froze. "Is he here?"
"No, he's in his house, almost comatose, trying to figure out how he's going to get you back when you won't even talk to him," he said with a twinge of anger in his voice. "You messed him up, Y/N. He won't eat or sleep because he's so broken up about you."
"He has no right to be like that when he picked a fight and hurt me just as badly," I picked up my bags. "If you'll excuse me, I have to go."
"Wait, I just wanna talk," Brandon cut in. "Trust me, I'll be the first to say that you have every right to be angry. What he said was uncalled for, but he misses you."
"Hunter should've thought of that before he called me a slut," I replied tensely.
"He wasn't thinking because you were in a fight," Brandon explained. "Please, just go see him. He's been miserable since you left."
Somehow, he got me to visit Hunter within an hour. I knocked on the door as Brandon left after dropping me off. Instead of the Hunter I knew, a ghost of him answered the door. He was gaunt and pale with dark circles under his eyes.
"Y/N," he whispered, shocked. "I've been trying to talk to you for-"
"I know," I nodded. "You drove my phone plan up the wall."
"I'm sorry I called you a slut," he apologized. "And for starting that fight."
"It takes two to tango," I sighed as we sat on the couch. "If I hadn't fought back, it wouldn't have escalated to that point anyway."
"I was the one who started the fight, not you," Hunter agonized. "And I get that what I said was unfair, but don't leave again. I don't want to lose you."
"Don't worry, I won't," I said softly, leaning over to kiss his cheek. "I missed you so much."
"You missed me more than your guy friend, right?" he asked teasingly.
My smile dropped. "Really? We just got back together two seconds ago and you're starting up with that crap again?"
"I was kidding," he laughed and pulled me into a kiss. "I had to lighten the mood somehow."
"You're awful," I pushed him playfully, but ended up in an even tighter hug.
I buried my head in his chest and smiled. "I love you Hunter."
"I love you more." He replied.
