Hey! Babe" I said while hugging Marie. She kissed me softly on my lips as I smiled at her.

"Your house is really beautiful!" She said while looking at the walls. I nodded and led her to my room. 

I was home alone so I thought it was ideal to bring my girlfriend to my house. My parents went for a business meeting in London. It's a council meeting. Many country 's business men and women are coming for this. My dad told me. But it was so boring that I just concentrated on minor parts. It was the first time Marie came to visit me at my home. Usually we meet at her house or café. 

"So baby when you will be back from Paris? " She asked in her sassy tone.

"Just 2 weeks." I nodded while sitting on the bed. She sat on my laps while engulfing me in her arms.

"Wow !! You are looking hot in that photo." She said while moving her hand on my chest. I looked at that photo and smiled. It was me riding a horse when I went to Pennsylvania last summer.

"And that one is soo cute!" She pointed towards another picture adjacent to the last one where I held a trophy for winning the basketball match in high school.

"Yeah! I know."  I nodded and really I realised how handsome I was. I smiled knowing how much I loved myself. 

"You are cute too babe!" I said after kissing her on her cheek. She was indeed very cute. The blue hoddie and black jeans made her look prettier than ever. Her wide smile and beautiful lips were the attractive features of all. Her blonde hair could be called another reason for me liking her. I asked her out last year on my birthday and since then she has been with me. I felt lucky because I wasn't the type of guy for whom girls would drool and try to prey on. I was just a normal guy with a cute smile with dimples as said by my mother. Ok that's a lie. All the university girls were mad for me. Though I hardly cared about them.

"So you will be back after 2 weeks. I will miss you!" She said while resting her head on my shoulder.

"You don't have to miss me." I said and saw horror in her eyes. She might be thinking that I was talking about breakup.

"Why?"  She asked with a perplexed look.

"You can come with me. I've booked 2 tickets. Will you?" I asked with eyebrows arched.

"No, actually we are leaving tomorrow to meet my grandmother. She is sick." She stated while I nodded and kissed her forehead.

"It's ok!" I said and pulled her closer while squeezing her waist and kissed her hard.

Bzzzz......Bzzzz........

Marie's phone screamed spoiling my mood. She told me to be quite as she picked it up walking away from me.

"Ok! I will be back."  She said to someone on the phone. She placed her phone in the pocket and passed a sheepish smile.

"I've to go." She said worridly.

"But Marie, you said you will give me time before I leave." I snarled.

"Please it's urgent Luis." She said while rushing towards the door.

"Ok! Bye." I hugged and kissed her before she ran towards her car and brought the engine back to life.

I went back inside after waving at Marie. I threw my body on the bed with a thud. I checked the time. It was still an hour left for the flight.

I don't know why but I felt tired now. Everytime Marie is in rush. We hardly talk to each other because she is always busy and always just so in a hurry.

She's in High school. I know studies keeps people busy but I am also a student but I usually give time to her. And another thing that keeps me close to her was  that she's younger than all of my exes. I don't like breaking little cute chick's heart.

My exes were all 23 or 21 and some were same as me 25, just months younger. But Marie was 18. Maybe she was getting used to these new things, studies. I realised I liked younger girls when I was in high school, I mean they are cute.

I now started feeling as if love was useless. It has been ages I found a girl who really blew my mind, who really had an influence on me or on my heart.

Marie is my 12th girlfriend but nobody has been that close to me as my 1st gf. Maybe she was 1st that's why. I was not happy with all these things so I thought I should talk to Marie.

I took the keys of my car and left. It took 5 minutes for me to reach her house. Her parents weren't home. I rushed to her room and found it open. I pushed the door and found Marie sleeping with Ethan.

"Marieeeeeee!!" I shouted. Both of them jumped. Anger consumed all my thinking ability and left me with disastrous thoughts and actions.

I grabbed Ethan by his collar and pushed him on the floor. I punched him and kicked him furiously. He kept screaming. Blood started flowing from his mouth. Marie pushed me so as to help Ethan. I left Ethan and slapped Marie thrice.

"You bitch!!!" I glared at her and kicked Ethan and went away. Anger boiled inside me burning the little patience that was left me in.

I came home back and washed my hands and changed. I fixed my clothes and hair and took my bag. The driver was waiting outside. I sat in the car and closed my eyes and decided to take some rest. My knuckles were paining badly from hitting Ethan. I kept the pain aside and took a nap.

It took 20 minutes for me to reach airport. I saw the time and turned on the rush mode. Just 5 minutes left!

I went in the business class and took my seat. I found Jordan and Michael waving at me. I took my seat. Just one seat was empty. Because of Marie. My friends smiled at me and welcomed me towards them.

"Where's Marie?" Jordan asked. I shook my head and they understood. I told them everything. They consoled me and Jordan poured Blue Antiquity in a glass for me.

"You know what I like when I'm not good." I grinned at Jordan.

"What are friends for?" Both of them said at the same time.

They have been my best friends since junior year. They are like brothers for me. I love them. We are same age 25. They are my business partners too. I wanted them to be with me. It's been 1 year we started our company and its going good.

We usually enjoy and sometimes work.

They make me happy whenever I'm sad. They both are single. They broke up just weeks ago. And now we are all single!

Today we met after 10 days because they went to meet their relatives. During that time I used to go to Marie's house to meet her and sometimes café.

I love cafés so I just go on exploring and finding café in my town or maybe here or there.

"Cheers to a treacherous breakup."  Michael said while raising his glass. We clicked our glasses and gulped. We all laughed and chatted. Then we went to sleep.
