Lana POV:
The next morning, I had woken up feeling weight on me.
I noticed that Cole's arm was around me. That's when I remembered calling him when I got home the night before.
Adam was still at the apartment so I didn't get the chance to talk to Sarah.
I slowly got out of bed, careful not to wake Cole and drug myself into the kitchen for a cup of coffee.
"Morning." Adam said as he poured himself a cup.
"Hey." I muttered. Fucker.
I looked at him for a short moment.
I was about to say something when Sarah walked into the kitchen.
"Hey." She said, giving Adam a kiss. This was pitiful.
"You okay?" She asked.
I gave her a sarcastic smile. "Peachy."
She could tell how upset I was at her and knew her ass was getting chewed out when we were alone.
A loud yawn came from down the hall making me laugh lightly.
"Hey, beautiful." Cole said before kissing my cheek. "Morning." I said and gave him a smile.
"Morning, new guy." Sarah said. "Really? Still with the new guy?" I asked. "It's a nickname. So what?" She asked.
Cole laughed lightly. "No worries, baby." He told me.
I noticed Adam giving Sarah a small glare. Jealousy. Apparently our dear Adam didn't approve of her talking to other guys.
"You good, Adam?" I asked, raising a brow.
He snapped his attention to me, his glare instantly vanishing. "Yeah, all good." He replied.
I'm sure it is. I can't keep this to myself much longer. I just got a sneak peak of the real Adam.
"Sarah, can I talk to you? Alone." I said, sternly. "Yeah." She said quietly.
I took her hand and drug her into my bedroom, locking the door.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" I whispered. "I'm afraid to break up with him okay!" She whispered back, angrily.
"I warned you, Sarah Elizabeth. I don't have a choice." I told her.
"Please, for the love of god, don't tell Dad." Sarah begged.
"Go in there, right now, and make him leave. If you don't, I'm going to dad. Today." I said.
"Lana, I'm begging you. Don't do this." Sarah cried.
"He will kill you." I said angrily. "No he won't. Just give me time." Sarah replied.
I glared harshly at her as my hands shook. "The end of the day, Sarah. No longer." I said before going back into the kitchen.
Ryder POV:
"Did Lana seem a little off yesterday?" Samuel asked.
Shit. Don't say, Ryder. Don't say it.
"Maybe? She seemed exhausted." I replied.
"Yeah... Maybe." Samuel muttered.
"I'm gonna head home, Sam. I'll see you soon." I told him before heading home.
When I walked through the door, I decided to call Lana.
"Hey." She answered quietly.
"I'm guessing it didn't go well." I told her.
"Hey was still at my house when I fucking got up this morning." I growled.
"We can't keep this a secret any longer, Lan. Your dad needs to know." I replied.
"I gave her until the end of the day. If she doesn't leave him then I'm telling dad in the morning when I take him home." Lana said.
"Good. Call me tonight to keep me updated." I told her.
"Will do." She said before ending the call.
Lana POV:
Cole and I had plans for me to stay the night with him that night. I was going to leave early the next morning to pick up my dad.
When I pulled into his driveway, I noticed another car.
After I got out and headed to the door, it opened.
A woman was standing there, and that's when I saw it.
Cole came up behind her and kissed her.
He looked up when she walked down the steps and saw me.
"Oh, God." I turned and rushed to my car.
"Lana!" He yelled chasing after me.
"Stay the hell away from me!" I yelled back.
He grabbed my arm but I turned to smack him.
"Baby, I'm so sorry."
"How long?" I asked as tears streamed down my face. "Lana."
"How long!" I yelled. He paused for a moment. "A month." He said quietly.
I shook my head. "I'm such an idiot." I said and got into my car.
When I got home, I slammed the door behind me.
"Lana?" Sarah asked as she rushed to catch up with me. "Lana, what happened? I thought you were staying with Cole tonight." She said.
I sat on my bed and finally let myself break down.
"I saw another woman there. She was leaving just as I got there. I saw him kissing her." I said as I cried in my hands.
"God, Lan. I'm so sorry." Sarah said as she sat next to me. "I need to be alone." I whispered. "Okay." Sarah said softly, before closing the door behind her.
I didn't want to be alone. Sarah just wasn't the one I needed at that moment. I needed Ryder.
