Chapter Nineteen - "Say You Hate Me First."
___

Avery's P.O.V

"Shit, I'm so so sorry." I say, fiddling with the door handle. I unlock the door and quickly run out, only to be face to face with Katie Holmes.

"What are you doing here? And what were you doing in my room?" Katie asks, her eyes narrowing at me as he places her hands on her hips. I bite the inside of my cheek in annoyance.

"Where is Logan?" I ask and Katie smirks.

"He just left. Guess he didn't want to see y-" I run down the stairs, cutting Katie's sentence off and I grab Ryan's arm, pulling him away from Katie's parents who are currently on the phone to god knows who. I run up the stairs and run back out to the balcony.

"What-"

"Questions later." I quickly say, running across the branch and holding onto the tree, looking at Ryan who is slowly making his way across the tree branch. I groan and immediately jump down the tree, running to my car. Ryan walks over and I beep the horn at him.

"Hurry your ass up!" I scream and Ryan grins, getting into the car. I start the car and do a quick u-turn before driving to the direction of my house.

"Okay, how did the murder go?" Ryan asks and I shake my head.

"He wasn't there." I say and Ryan's eyes go wide.

"What? So your saying that I pulled that act-"

"For nothing? Yes." I say, turning into my street. I immediately see a car outside of my house and I bite my lip.

"Oh look who it is?" Ryan says as I park the car. I quickly send him a glare before getting out. I notice Logan's expression change when he sees Ryan get out of the car but I ignore that and make my way over to Logan.

"You dumb piece of shit!" I scream, gripping at his collar with one hand and holding my other hand up to his face. Logan frowns at me and attempts to grab my hand that is so close to his face but I hit it away.

"Don't touch me." I say, my tone dropping into a venomous one. Logan sighs and attempts to grab my hand that is clutching at his shirt but I hit it away again.

"You even try to touch me and I'll punch you." I spit and Logan sighs again. He opens his mouth to talk but stops when he realises he has nothing to say.

"Avery, come on-"

"Shut the fuck up." Logan says, raising his head to look at Ryan who is obviously behind me. I grit my teeth and push myself away from Logan.

"Don't tell him to shut up." I snap and Logan looks down at me, a frown playing at his lips.

"Your sticking up for him?" Logan asks, his eyebrow raised slightly. I let out a laugh and cross my arms over my chest.

"What? Were you expecting me to stick up for you? Oh well, news flash Logan, you were the one who left me for that piece of shit you call your girlfriend! Were you expecting me to just drop everything that happened and let myself forgive you?" I ask, narrowing my eyes at Logan. I step back and stand next to Ryan.

"You have no right to just tell my friend to shut the fuck up because your jealous of him. I mean, your dating Katie but do you see me telling her to shut the fuck up when you two are talking? No, you don't so drop the act and just fuck off." I say, glaring at Logan and he raises his eyebrow again.

"I'm jealous? Oh please, get over yourself. I have been trying to start over with you but your just keep throwing it back in my face. Maybe if you just trusted me-"

"Shut up, Logan." I say flatly, cutting him off. I turn my body sideways and turn to the house, still staring at Logan.

"Go in, get Drew and I never want to see your face again." I say slowly and Logan shakes his head. I raise my eyebrow at him questioningly.

"What was that?" I ask and Logan steps forward, getting closer to me.

"I said no." Logan says, his tone firm. I glare at him for a second before clenching my fists in anger.

"Fine, I'll go and get him for you then." I say, turning on my heel and walking towards my house. I open the door and storm inside to see Drew sleeping on the couch. I walk over and pick him up in my arms, walking outside towards Logan.

"Now go away." I say, handing him to Logan. I cross my arms and narrow my arms at him, waiting for him to move or do anything.

Honestly, I didn't want him to go but the anger inside me is pushing Logan away and I just can't help but do that again. I have to tell him to get out of my life even though I feel something for the bad boy.

"Say you hate me first." Logan says and I let out a frustrated sigh.

I don't hate you, I think to myself but the words that Logan want me to say just slip out of my mouth the second I look up at him.

"I hate you so much." I say and Logan raises his eyebrow.

"Say it again."

"I. Hate. You." I say slowly, ignoring my heart which is clenching in pain. I let out a sigh when Logan turns around, putting Drew in the car. Ryan flashes me a sad smile and I know he knows that I didn't want to say that.

"I'll meet you inside." I whisper to Ryan and he nods, turning around and walking in the direction back to my house.

When Logan finishes putting Drew in the car, I can't help but let the tear that has been staying there for the whole time roll down my cheek.

"I-I'm sorry, Logan." I say and Logan looks away from me, his eyes trying to focus on something other than me. I step closer to Logan and stand on my toes, reaching up to Logan's face.

"Please just-"

"Don't, Avery." Logan says pushing me back down on my feet. I let out a whimper and hold onto Logan's hand.

"Please st-"

"If you need anything... call your 'friend' Ryan." And with that, Logan gets in his car and drives off. I feel my heart clench when I watch Logan's car drive off down the road.

You love him, my brain says and I shake my head.

No, I can't love him.

Yes you can. You have fallen for him once-

I don't love Logan, it's only an attraction.

Ugh, stupid characters. Do you think Avery loves Logan? What are your thoughts on the chapter?

For those people out there who think that Avery is stupid for being 'bi-polar' because she hated him one second that tries to make him forgive her the next, I hope you all enjoy no more updates... jokes. I find it weird though how you criticize Avery because her attitude changes. What I find stupid though is the fact that we have all been like this in one point of our lives so I see no reason for you to judge Avery.

BY THE WAY, I'M GOING TO MAKE IT LOGAN'S P.O.V NEXT CHAPTER SO PLEASE STAY TUNED!!

Lofd - "You hate me now, and I feel the same way. You love me now, and I feel the same way, We scream and we shout, make up the same day... same day."
