Chapter 4

May

The look on his face tore me to piece. It is almost similar to the look Ben had on his face when he and Patricia were making fun of me after I caught them cheating. That look of disgust. As if I was a disgusting person. Someone you could look at from afar but never up close.

"May, How old are you?" He asked again, repeating the words slowly as if they tore him up to even utter it.

"Blue eyes, what's wrong? What happened just now?, we were fine up till a second ago." I must have missed something. Something must have happened to change his countenance this much. "Did I do anything wrong?"

"Do not make me repeat myself after this." He growled, "How fucking old are you?"

The age. I looked at him closely, I knew he obviously wasn't a teenager but he doesn't look too much older than I am. And It didn't bother me, I didn't even think twice about it.

"Seventeen." I whispered, I barely even heard the words myself.

"Louder!" He growled, more loud this time.

"Seventeen!" I blurt out in fear.

His face crumbles in pain as he closes his eyes, "Seventeen." His hand pinched to his nose bridge.

I moved closer to him, "Blue eyes, what's wrong?" He jerked back from my touch again.

And I close my eyes as I prepare myself for my second heartbreak in less than twelve hours.

"What is wrong?, you are asking me that?" He snarled.

"I didn't do anything. I just-"

"You just failed to mention that you are underage?"

"It never crossed my mind to say anything." He has to understand I didn't mean for anything bad to happen. I had no plan when I stepped into the bar last night.

"You could not be bothered to mention that you are underage. How the hell did you even get into the bar? You snuck in?"

"I would never. Blue eyes, you know me better than-"

" That Is the thing, I do not know you. I know nothing about you. If I had how old you were I would have never hit on you or even sent you that drink in the first place. "

"It doesn't matter. You said you wanted to get to know me better. We can still do that. My age changes nothing."

"Do you not understand what I did with you is a crime. I am twenty-six. I gave you alcohol and I had sex with you and you are just seventeen years old. I might as well raped you." His face changed completely. And he sounded so different from the charming guy I spent the night with.

"Blue eyes, it doesn't matter. Nobody is going to know." I tried to reassure him.

"The media is going to have a field day when they get their hands on this." He muttered with his eyes close. I'm sure he is imagining how devastating everything will be.

I grabbed his face in my hands, "That's not going to happen, Blue eyes. I am not saying anything to the media or anybody about us. Why would the Media be interested in us?"

His eyes glisten for a second and he looked just like the charming man I spent the night with. Just for a second until he is replaced by the cold man he came after hearing my age. "There is no us, May. There never was and there never will be because this is the last time we will ever see each other."

Is it possible to get your heart broken by a person you knew for less than a day?, because I can feel my heart breaking. And this time it's so much worse than the first. There is no controlling the tears , I only noticed them when one slides down my face.

"Blue eyes, please don't do this to us."

"Us? There is no fucking us."

"What we had had to have meant something. It did to me. And I'm sure you felt the same way. You called me your Princess."

He gives an ugly laugh filled with melancholy, "Wrong nickname. Jailbait is more fitting, don't you think?"

"Blue eyes, please." I stare right into his beautiful eyes, desperately searching for a hint of the person I knew him to be.

His hand grabs my neck roughly, "Do you know who I am, May?. I am not one of the teenager you are used to."

I swallowed my fear, ignoring the rising pain in my neck. "I don't care. "

"You should Jailbait."

"I don't care."

"I am not someone you'd want to run into Ina dark alley, I am not a prince charming. I am the villain who eats little virgins like you for breakfast. I am a nightmare."
