Say My Name ~ Destiny's Child

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________

Any other day
I would call, you would say,
"Baby, how's your day?"
But today, it ain't the same
Every other word is "Uh huh", "Yeah, okay"
Could it be that you are at the crib with another lady
If you took it there
First of all let me say
I am not the one to sit around and be played
So prove yourself to me
I'm the girl that you claim
Why don't you say the things
That you said to me yesterday
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Nervous digits shook. (H/c) tresses were tugged in frustration. (E/c) orbs were glossy with liquid. Suspicion and assumptions have taken over every fiber of her being. She didn't want to believe her own assumptions were accurate. The delicate muscle in her wretched at the possibility. Sweat accumulated at the furrowing brows.
(Y/n) (L/n). This was the name of the distressed female. She was non other than Levi's girlfriend. It's been two years. The poor, oblivious girl thought things were pure bliss. Her thoughts were rightfully so. Things were bliss. Sadly, then and now differ in unfathomable ways.
A few months ago. That's when her fairy tale world crumbled to oblivion. The irony is that things burst into flames without her knowledge. To (Y/n), thing couldn't have been better.

~~~~~~~~~ Three Months Previous From The Current Time

(Y/n)'s fingers danced over the phone's keypad. The all-too-familiar-number was typed in. She knew how Levi immersed himself into his work, hence why she would call everyday to give him a small escape from work. She could just imagine how things went down in the office.
Levi's gray eyes dart around for any living organism. He wouldn't be caught dead giving out tender condolences,unless you were (Y/n). That was the one acceptance to the rule, or at least it was. Although,this was a time before that.
So, Levi casually walked over to the oak door. He turned the sliver lock. He learned not to leave the door unlocked, when Hanji once busted in and decided to talk with (Y/n) for his whole time to talk with her.
"Hey baby."
Usually, Levi would have cringed, hearing such talk. Nevertheless, he would have probably kicked his own ass hearing himself say such. Although, he know how (Y/n)'s heart soared at such the little action.
"How was you day?"
(Y/n)'s mood perked up at the usual question from Levi.
"Same as usual. How's yours been?"
Levi scoffed at the obvious question.
"Shitty, I have a hot girlfriend home and I have to do fucking paperwork."
(Y/n) lightly laughed at the comment. She didn't know,but things like that made Levi's heart skip a beat.
"Okay, I know things are busy so I'll let ya go!"
Levi nodded, even though he knows she can not see the action.
"Love you,Levi."
This time Levi didn't have to scan the perimeter. He answered back.
"I love you too, (Y/n)."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Two Months previous
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That same goofy smile played on your lips.
"Hello?"
"Hey Levi!"
"Oh,hey."
The look of joy, was erased from her face in an instant. It seemed like there was a hint of venom and aggravation in his voice, at the realization of it being her. This slightly taunted her thoughts,but was pushed aside. (Y/n) deemed it as him just being tired.
"What do you want, (Y/n)?"
This made her very uneasy. This was already far from normal.
"Are you okay?"
Levi scoffed at this. Although, it wasn't his playful scoff. It was on of pure irritation towards her.
"Why the hell wouldn't I be?"
But before (Y/n) had a chance to respond, Levi jumped in once more.
"Look,I've gotta go. I have a lot of work to do."
"Okay Levi, I love you."
"Bye."
With only a bye, Levi hung up. This stirred up suspicion. But what (Y/n) didn't know would break her fragile heart into so many fragments, nothing might be able to mend it again.

I know you say that I am assuming things
Something's going down, that's the way it seems
Shouldn't be no reason why you're acting strange
If nobody's holding you back from me
'Cause I know how you usually do
Where you're saying everything to me times two
Why can't you just tell the truth
If somebody's there, then tell me who
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
Levi knew what he was doing was sinful. That just seemed to make it all the more exhilarating. He knew how the strangeness tugged at the strings of (Y/n)'s heart. He knew the aftermath would end with you being hurt. Although, he seemed to get off on the thrill of the fact. What fact you may ask. Well, many of them. The fact that this was wrong was one. The fact that this was happening with his assistant, Petra was another taboo thrill. He knew that slut would never actually never mean that much to him. He new her reputation of being the office's welcome mat. {Sorry Petra lovers,but this is for the cause!} The thing that he thrived on the most, was the fact that he could be caught.
He knew this sounded sick, and sadistic in a way. He even recognized it seemed to be in that fashion,but that was just apart of the whole ordeal. The thought of being able to get away with such an action is was really drove it. He did love (Y/n), and it was not in his intentions for her to get hurt. This was just like some sort of an addiction for him. He honestly tried to stop it a few times,but Petra was always there to remind him of the thrills of such risque actions. In a way, she had just as much fault as he did.

It was another day of sinister actions, when Levi returned from work. (Y/n) expected for him to do what he has been doing recently.
As of late, Levi came home and went straight for a shower. He knew why, but the devious bastard had a reason for everything. When questioned, he said it simply helped him relax.
You were no fool. You may have been trying to overlook the actions,but that doesn't mean you didn't notice them. As for Levi, just because you have eyes doesn't mean you always see. Levi thought he was just too good to be caught. He also underestimated you. He thought you could never possibly catch on. He thought you were just to dense. He couldn't be further from the truth.
As soon as he came through the door, you were there. You have been planning this. You knew if you was there, there's nowhere for him to hide. Obviously, he couldn't go back to the car and leave. You wold know, for a fact, that something was happening. Correction, you did know something was happening. You just didn't know what.

As soon as your form was seen, at the front door, one thing coursed through Levi's mind. 'OH.SHIT.'
A sickly sweet smile graced your plump lips. Your (e/c) eyes bored into his soul.
"Welcome home,darling."
Just as you suspected, he caught the cruel traces of emotion laced through your words.
You enveloped him into a hug. Your face was buried into his chest. Then, fire seemed to course through your body. Hatred pounded at your heart.
He smelt heavily of women's perfume, and God knows you have never worn that perfume before. Also, you have not had physical contact with Levi today. Plus, if that much was plastered to Levi's form, who knows how much this person had on. There was another sent that lingered. Would you dare say.....salt? You were infuriated. Your mind jumped to the most reasonable thought. Although you played it off as if you haven't noticed anything.
"Okay, I just wanted to say hi to you before you go get your shower."
You even gave him a warm smile to mask the true emotions.
Levi rushed off to the bathroom. 'Thank God she didn't notice!"
Oh, but indeed, you did.

What is up with this
Tell the truth, who you with
How would you like it if I came over with my clique
Don't try and change it now
See you've gotta bounce
When two seconds ago,
Said you just got in the house
It's hard to believe that you are at home by yourself
When I just heard the voice, heard the voice of someone else
Just this question why do you feel you got to lie?
Getting caught up in your game
When you can not say my name
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
There was one thing you noticed in particular. When he was on the phone, not only would he not say anything hinting affection,but he wouldn't say your name. That was the one thing that irked you the most. It's like he would go out of his way to not say your name.
{Currently}
You pushed back all anxiety, and just dialed the number.
"Hello?"
"Hey, Levi?"
"What is it now?"
"Say my name."

Levi was in his office. Petra was up to her usual antics. Fingers did circular motions on his toned chest. His phone gave off a familiar ring. Petra leaned over to Levi's ear,while he went to pick his phone up. Her obnoxiously pink lips whispered,"Do you have to answer your phone?"
Levi then answered the phone. All previously used emotions during phone calls were voided out. Then something he didn't expect happened.
"Say my name."
Levi was honestly taken aback. He wasn't sure if he heard right.
"Excuse me?"
"You never say my name when you talk to me,so say my name."
"Look, I don't have time for this. Erwin needs me, so I have to go."
Then he just hung up.
You shook your head. You knew he wouldn't do it,and you had the strong feeling you knew exactly why.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________
Say my name, say my name
When no one is around you,
Say baby I love you
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You actin' kinda shady,
Ain't callin' me baby
Why the sudden change?
Say my name, say my name
If no one is around you,
Say baby I love you
If you ain't runnin' game
Say my name, say my name
You actin' kinda shady,
Ain't callin' me baby
Better say my name
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
It has been a few days since that call. You purposely got off of his trail. This was for the soul purpose of you making him think he was safe. You were done with the agony of not knowing consuming you. The hand of depression cascaded over you and led you into an abyss of darkness. You knew the power of phone calls, so you simply stopped responding to them. You now sheltered yourself from everyone. You honestly fret what would happen if you didn't.
You've had enough of it. Today, there wouldn't be any phone call. You've made up your mind. You already considered yourself a woman scorned. And you know what they say about that. But yes, there would not be a call, although you would show up there. You wanted to end this once-and-for-all. You didn't know what would become of your mental state if you didn't.

This was it. You saw this as some of the most crucial moments you would withstand. You said hello to the guy at the front desk. He knew you from a Christmas party you attended with Levi. {He only went because you convinced him} So, you went on your way unquestioned. You went down the white tiled hallway. You did receive some passive glances, and some questioning looks. Although, you didn't expect for them to drop what they had, look towards the sun and scream 'Praise the good Lord!'
You finally made it to the point on no return. You pressed your ear the the oak door. You heard some questioning noises. Those noises reached into your body, and slowly ripped your heart into pieces. You then opened the door as quietly as you could, and what a sight you took in.

It was the same old for Levi. He was notified, by his watch, that his break was upon him. He went to lock the door,although Petra strutted in and slammed the door. The look in her eyes were predatory.

Your eyes met with Petra's. She smirked your way. Both were shirtless, and on Levi's neat desk. Petra's bra was,thank God, still intact. Levi's bare back was faced away from you. Her face twisted into an exaggeration of the pleasure she was feeling.
"Levi!"
"Hmn?"
"Say my name."
"Petra."
That was it. You stormed over to his desk. You literally ripped Levi off of her.
Levi's face was one of utter shock and horror. That was a face you were too familiar with.
"YOU BITCH!"
With that, your right fist connected with the flesh of Petra's jaw. Some of her pink lipstick and maroon blood coming along with you as you recoiled your fist. Petra held her jaw,as tears poured out of her eyes.
You grabbed Petra by her ginger locks.
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU HAVE TO CRY ABOUT?!?"
You felt outraged she could be involved in such an event and have the audacity to cry in front of you. Your left palm went to collide with her cheek,when Levi's hand caught yours.
Never, had he seen such hate in someones's eyes, and a lot of people hated him.
Her other hand hit him in anyway it could find to.
"DON'T.YOU.EVER.TOUCH.ME.AGAIN."
Levi had to admit, you hit like a grown man. His nose was oozing blood,and he knew he would have a black eye.
You then proceeded to walk out of his office.
"(Y/N)!"
You stopped dead in your tracks. You turned your head with a brow raised.
"Now you wanna say my name?"
