When A Bully Falls In Love 50
~Aoife~When you are in love, everything looks so beautiful. I never thought I would fall for my bully. I never thought the man I feared the most would become my comforter. I love when he feels jealous of me.I feel like the luckiest person in this world to have a friend like Matt. I couldn’t think of getting through exams without his help. With him, everything seems easy. I always adored him, telling him he had some magical powers to make challenging topics easy for me. Nevertheless, I thought about asking for Xander’s help, but Xander—being Xander, was never interested in studies.He was starting to get jealous of Matt, and I could tell.“Where are you? I want to see you.”“I am at my dorm.”“Okay, can I come to your room and sit with you?” he begged.“Sit and do what? Xander, you know it will not work. You will distract me.” I lied, but I knew what was important at that moment.“Fine,” he snorted, making me feel bad. “Girls would die to meet me, and you—you have changed, Aoife. You

~Aoife~"Where are you? I was worried sick. You left the room without a word," I scolded him."I'm so sorry for not answering your call. I'm at the hospital. My mom fell down the stairs, and she has a broken arm," I could hear the distress in his voice.“I am so sorry to hear that. I want to come to see her.” I spoke.He sent me the details and immediately, I called Matt back and informed him about Xander’s mom’s condition. Within a few minutes, Matt came to pick me up.“How did this happen?” "I don't know. After your call, he told me about his mother. I hope she's alright," I replied."I don't understand why he didn't call me," Matt expressed his confusion.“Let’s go see.”We arrived at the hospital and after checking with the front desk, we ended up standing in front of the VIP room."Hey, I think I forgot to lock the car. You go ahead. I'll join you in a few minutes," Matt said and left. I was unsure if Xander was inside or not, and I was hesitant to enter the room. I waited and

~Xander~It was good to hear my girl’s voice after a few days. I was caught up in mom’s health, and I totally forgot to call her. Aunt Joey called me from the hospital when this incident happened. Hastily, I drove towards the hospital without thinking. Raph was not even there to take her to the hospital. He went to New York for our company’s work. Luckily, Zareena reached out to me and helped me a lot during this tough time.Mom had an elbow operation, and it would take a week before she’d be discharged from the hospital.I was busy calling Raph and updating him about mom’s condition when I saw Zareena at the front desk.“Hey, what are you doing here? Mom is alone in her room?” “Uh, nothing. I was asking about her medicine. Matt and Aoife are here to meet her.”“They are?”We walked upstairs when I saw Aoife cupping his face and snuggling her head into Matt’s chest.I felt a little awkward. I wanted to know the reason for them getting close to each other. While I was trying to figure
When A Bully Falls In Love 53
~Aoife~A wall of thoughts deployed one after another, capturing the dread of betrayal. Anxiety curbed my sight, and I ran aimlessly, trying to calm my suffocation. I couldn’t pinpoint what hurt me the most. Is it the lie or the closeness I witnessed with Zareena? But why was I running? This is what I always do. No, I am not the girl who runs from her challenges, but why didn’t I feel the courage to confront him? Is it because I had a hidden fear that he would break my heart and leave me when I needed him the most?I didn’t realize when the anxiety turned into tears, and I bumped into something. I heard a groan, only to see it was not the wall but a man.“Look out, miss.”The train of thoughts shattered, and the wall of fear was replaced with an unknown voice brushing my ears, bringing me back to my senses. Then I realized my smoothie had splashed on his clothes.“Sorry.” The vulnerability inside me could come out in screams, but only in whispers of gagging.“Are you okay, miss?” He p

~Xander~I found myself in the room where the sight before me shook me to the core. I waited for Aoife for the last three hours in her room. I even called her and now I’m finding her in Matt’s arms, breaking my heart. My heart groaned in pain. I had never felt the pain I was feeling now. Why? Why did you do this, Aoife?Matt is my friend. But why did everyone feel different about it when they saw them together? Aoife, why are you so easy and free with him?What Mom told me about them being love birds seems to be true. But my heart was not ready to accept a single part of it. No, Aoife wouldn’t do such a thing to me. I pulled my hair with stress, backing myself against the door.They were in deep slumber and didn’t even realize I was in the room watching them for over ten minutes.The truth hit me. What if I didn’t come today? I am sure she thought I would meet her tomorrow, and here she is, sleeping calmly on his chest.A groan came out of my mouth. I couldn’t stand there anymore. I wa

~Aoife~I opened my eyes with a sense of leftover stress from the last night and found my redeemer was sleeping next to me. What should I say? I was lucky to have this gentleman in my life, and one more time, thanking God for him. He is my rescuer, always there when I need him.I stroked his face to appreciate him. He was in a deep sleep and didn’t realize my hand trailed on his cheek.“Thank you for being here for me,” I murmured in my mind.Slowly, I woke up from the bed and walked towards the bathroom to do my morning business. Matt was sitting on the couch when I came out, rubbing his eyes like he had woken up in the middle of sleep.“Hey, good morning.” He racked his fingers through his hair.“Good morning,” I sprinted toward him with all my emotions and hugged him.“Hey, are you okay?”“Yes, just happy you are there for me. Thank you for everything.” I snuggled my head in his chest like yesterday and felt delighted when he wrapped me again in his friendly warmth. His eyes were s

~Xander~I hadn’t slept until early in the morning, and there was no way I could get up in a few hours. I slept till after five in the evening.I found Aoife called me, but my head was spinning badly, so I hung up the phone. After some time, I drank a few glasses of lemon water and took pain relief pills to control my dizzy head. It’s not medicine; my body wanted Aoife. I wanted her in my arms. I missed her terribly.Once I found myself better, I scanned my phone, finding Aoife’s missed calls with a single message.Matt won the competition. Great, that was good news. Hastily, I prepared myself for the party. But when I came down from my room, Mom called me to meet Zareena’s family who visited to check on Mom’s health.Whether I wanted it or not, I had to sit there. I missed my big brother; if he had been here, he would have taken care of these guests. But he was out handling our projects in different states.I talked to Zareena’s dad, listening to him lecturing me to be the man of the

~Aoife~I awoke with a pounding head. Xander was sleeping beside me. I groaned in agony, feeling as if a cannon had exploded in my head. I shouldn't have consumed that much alcohol.I scanned his face and wondered how I fell in love with this man. As much as I love him, I am scared to get my heart broken by him. I stood up and walked towards the bathroom, where I saw I was not wearing anything.Great, so I slept with him even when I was angry with him. I rolled my eyes, but my aching body and the glow on my face after an intense moment with him made me feel happy. Whatever it was, I would talk to him, and we would sort everything out. I showered and wrapped my body in a clean towel just to go out and search for last night’s dress.I found the dress, but it was hard to discover my other belongings that needed to be worn under it.“Where did he throw them?” I muttered and looked under the bed, where undergarments were found. I took them out as I looked closely. They were definitely not

When A Bully Falls In Love Epilogue
~Aoife~I took a deep breath, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness as I prepared for my wedding day. The room was filled with love and happiness, and Neeral was helping fix my perfect bun, adjusting my veil. I finally looked at myself in the mirror, and tears welled up in my eyes.“It feels like I’m dreaming,” I breathed, my voice filled with emotion.“No, you’re not. This is what you’ve always wanted,” a familiar voice came from the corner of the room. I turned and saw Gabriel and Angel walking towards me.“Congratulations,” Angel said, hugging me tightly.“Thank you.” Gabriel cupped my face and gently kissed the top of my head. “I can’t help but wonder what’s going to happen now.” “What do you mean?” “You’re pregnant.” Confusion furrowed my brow. “That means Xander should be prepared to get his ass kicked by you.” He chuckled. We all laughed, enjoying the lighthearted moment.“No, I’ve done this before, and I know how to compose myself.” “No, you don’t know how to comp

~Aoife~My eyes welled up with tears as I listened to Matt and Neeral’s story, realizing the depth of their love and the challenges they had faced. Even Xander, sitting beside me, seemed lost in his thoughts, his gaze fixed on them. Matt, seated next to Neeral, gently caressed her belly and planted a tender kiss on her head, a gesture filled with love and anticipation.“This is our story,” he said, a smile gracing his face as he glanced towards us, his friends. The room fell into an awkward silence as the weight of their emotional journey settled upon us. Unable to contain my emotions, I stood up and embraced Neeral tightly, feeling gratitude for the strength and love she had shown even when Matt was filled with hatred.“Thank you for loving him when he hated you,” I whispered, my voice choking with emotion. Then I turned to Matt and hugged him as well. “And thank you for loving her when she lost all hope in you.”Xander nodded in agreement, silently acknowledging the profound impact

~Neeral~Eight Months Later…It had been eight long months since I last laid eyes on Matt, yet my heart still ached from the moment I left him. When he unexpectedly showed up in Seattle, seeking my forgiveness, I foolishly allowed a glimmer of hope to flicker within me. But I soon realized that it was nothing more than a gesture of a gentleman asking for forgiveness, devoid of any deeper feelings. In an attempt to distance myself, I cut off all social contacts and disappeared from social media, keeping a low profile.I didn’t know if I was hiding from Matt or simply afraid of what might transpire if he discovered I was now residing in Austin. I had started a new job at a local publication house, which paid enough for me to survive. I rented a house with new friends, and everything seemed to be going well. However, every weekend served as a reminder of my solitude, as my friends would retreat to their families’ or boyfriends’ houses. To fool my longing heart, I sometimes found myself s

~Neeral~Despite having crushed Taylor’s heart, he selflessly requested that I stay and help him finish the work in Seattle before I left for Austin. I agreed, feeling a sense of responsibility towards him. He didn’t complain or question me about the person responsible for his heartbreak. His kindness and understanding only intensified my guilt.Taylor had planned a farewell dinner for me, but he had to leave abruptly due to his father’s illness. He apologized and asked me to stay in Seattle for another week to assist him. As he departed, I found myself alone in the chilly city, fully engrossed in completing the pending work before my departure.Returning to my cottage, I was greeted by John and his wife, who had been taking care of the place. They had prepared a delicious meal for me, and I thanked them with a smile. However, the atmosphere took a sudden turn when John informed me that someone had come looking for me earlier but refused to provide his name.Confused, I frowned and ca

~Matt~Mending a broken heart felt like an impossible task, akin to building a sandcastle in a perpetually wet place. No matter how hard I tried, a wave would inevitably crash upon me, obliterating everything I had painstakingly constructed. How foolish was I to find myself in the same situation again?I had developed a special connection with Neeral, only to witness her accepting Taylor’s ring. Falling in love once more required effort, but I failed to nurture it. Our story seemed to leap to its climax before it even had a chance to begin.When Taylor proposed to her, I struggled to understand how I should react. Should I direct my anger toward him or at myself? I didn’t dare express my feelings to her, and she didn’t wait for me either. We shared a bond, but my confusion persisted. Was it friendship or something more? An unsettling fear crawled beneath my skin.What if I told her how I felt, and she left me like Aoife did? What if I asked her to wait, allowing me to discern if my em

~Neeral~After my heartfelt conversation with Taylor, I returned home. He had expressed his love for me with such joy, but Matt’s reaction to my proposal left me astounded. Why did he act like such a jerk? He had never seen me as anything more than a friend, so why did it seem like he was unhappy?With a stack of files in my hands, I struggled to open the door to my house. It was already 8 o’clock, and Matt wasn’t home. I called him, but he didn’t answer. I sent him a message, and I saw the three dots indicating that he was typing, but no reply came.Feeling a mix of worry and frustration, I decided to take a quick shower, prepare dinner, and keep myself busy with work. I waited for him at the dinner table for a long time, but he never showed up.My eyes wandered to the ring Taylor had given me. It was beautiful, and it brought a faint smile to my face. Perhaps one day, I would be able to love Taylor as deeply as I had loved Matt.Lost in my thoughts, my phone chimed. It was Taylor on

~Neeral~It had been two weeks since that horrible incident happened to me, and a strange feeling of suffocation took hold of my heart. I thought I could survive as Matt’s friend, but the closer we got, the more I felt myself drowning in pain. I couldn’t see myself as just his friend anymore. This realization reached its peak when he referred to me as his close friend in front of his family.Last weekend, we went to meet his parents. They welcomed me with open arms. It felt nice because I missed my mom so much. Matt told them about Aoife and Xander, and it surprised his parents to hear about those incidents. They were happy that I stood by Matt’s side, but I cursed myself for creating so much pain for myself. I was foolish to let him enter my heart, and now it was enough. I needed to move on.I created profiles on dating apps, hoping to find someone who would help me forget about Matt. However, my bad luck struck again when he saw an email notification from a dating app on my laptop.“

“Matt!” I screamed, desperation and fear filling my voice.Suddenly, someone forcibly pulled him away from me, and all I could hear was Victor’s agonized scream before I heard his feet on the floor as he rushed out of the house. Matt came barging back into the room, and as my senses slowly returned, I scrambled to cover my nakedness.Shivering and bleeding from my lips, I looked up at Matt, hoping for his protection and salvation. He scratched my face and body, leaving visible marks of his assault, and all I wanted was to be safe in Matt’s arms. “Hey, are you okay?” Matt’s voice trembled with concern as he hurried to my side. He grabbed a bedsheet and gently wrapped it around me, shielding me from the world’s harshness. Tears streamed down my face, and I couldn’t help but feel disgusted when I looked at myself.“It’s all my fault... I am worthless,” I whimpered, my voice filled with self-loathing.Matt’s eyes widened with disbelief, and he reached out to touch my trembling shoulder.
