Someone Like you by stephanie lyon (novels to read txt) 📕

“ I was stupi and I never stopped regretting that, and for the girl I was only her ride to the party we separated after”

  “ then you gave me some hoe’s clothes to wear, I never once looked at another guy because I loved you you wouldn’t have if you loved –“

“I didn’t” he said reaching up and pulling the tag off the jeans and holding it for me to see. “I bought them for your birthday, but never got the chance to give them to you, I have the recipt if you don’t want to believe me.  jesus hope I never loved or have been with another girl in my life sense the day I left you” he said angerly throwing the tag onto the counter. I thought about it and he was right, I never payed attention after I saw them walk in I was to pissed and well the evidence was on his side for the clothes.            

  “but” I said pausing to try and think about any other reasons to not believe him, anything. Nothing came he was right I was the one who was constantly pushing him away he never gave me a reason to doubt his love, yet I gave him a million.

     “why are you here, I gave you so many reasons to leave why would you stay with me. Is it cause we have a son-“

  “no-“

“if you’re afraid I won’t let you seem him if were not together you’re wrong he needs his dad-“

  “faith shut up-“

“ don’t deserve you, I screwed up” I barely got out before I was stopped by dakotah’s lips on mine. Fireworks like they always did went off in my head . he pushed me back so I was pressed against the wall before stopping.

“thank you, now I know you felt that too.”

   I nod not knowing how to respond, feeling like a complete idiot in front of him, it wasn’t the first time though and he’s allways told me he thinks it’s cute when I get tongue tied, but it made me feel like a complete idiot. He pushed away from the wall but kept his eyes on me, his face said it all, he was telling the truth.

  “now come on, let’s get back to our son” he said letting himself smile weakly. I answered with a nod once again.

If you love someone, set them free. If they come back they're yours. if they don't they never were.

My moms words once again making their way into my head, but he didn’t come back. well he came but left again. Did that count?

“yes it counts” Dakotah says making me jump scaring the shit out at me. I looked at him confused.

“how’d you know what I was thinking”

“ your mom definitely had a way with words, I did come for you faith. I regret not staying longer but I never stopped loving you and I came back last night didn’t i?”

“yeah”

“then it counts fay” he says smiling and kissing my cheek giving me the butterflies he was always good at making me get. Hell just being around him or thinking about him made me get butterflies in my stomach.

“if anything the time we were apart made me realize just how much I love you”

“and how much is that” I blush and laugh. He looked relieved,I knew he was to  see me back to my old happy self, he hadn’t seen me happy sense the day I found out I was pregnant with Bentley. It wasn’t the fact that I was pregnant but the fact I was scared as hell.

“to the moon and back Faith Elizabeth Montgomery” he says making my heart melt. Even after a  year and a half he never forgot that. “ and then some” he added with a smirk on his face. Without warning I run and jump into dakotahs arms making him stumble back, but not enough to make him fall backwards.

“I missed you so much” I whispher in his ear. He holds me tighter in response before letting me down.

“you need to be more careful with that cast it should be categorized as a weapon” he jokes lifting up the purple cast pain shooting up my arm. “shit sorry let’s get some meds in you then hit the road.”

“sorry and ok sounds good to me” I say as excitement filled me. for the first time sense Bentley was even conceived we were finally going to be a family and nothing could ruin the excitement and the happiness I felt knowing it wasn’t to late I had the love of my life back and my son had his father back.

Before taking the medicine I realized I had to eat something first or it would nake me sick, and the first time in a long time  I actually had an appetite. So we grabbed everything and hit the road in search of somewhere we could eat. Unfortunately the town here didn’t have much to choose from.  We settled for a restraunte called frankie’s next to a liquior star and a bar, great it reeked of boo’s. Dakotah put the truck in park before jumping out and running to my side where he opened the door and helped me out being extra careful with my arm now that last nights medicine was wearing off.

He shut my door then grabbed my hand. He kissed my cheek then we walked into Frankie’s it smelt like waffles. Donkey from shrek popped into my head and I stifled a giggle.

“Donkey?” he asked as a waiter walked over to us. I nodded my head and laughed. It was incredible how you could know a person so well you can even know what they’re thinking, I still didn’t know how he was able to do that. “two” Dakotah told the waiter. He looked around then told us to follow him were he led us to a round booth in the corner of the room. I let Dakotah slide in first so I could sit on the edge and not have to slide in or out.

“may I get you guys anything to drink” the waiter asked. He was a tall scrony dude with a shaved head.

“mountain dew” we said in unison. The waiter laughed andnoded before leaving us to be alone. I looked around the crowded restraunt. From the outside I didn’t think It would be nearly as packed, I guess they made good food to attract this many people. Or maybe these were vacationers who were starving and couldn’t find any other place to eat and this place serves terrible food.

I guess we’d find out.

As I continued to scan the room I met the gaze of a girl and her friend both giving me daggers. What the hell? Both were blond big chested girls, but one was dressed a lot classier then the other. I scrunched up my nose in disgust before looking at Dakotah scanning his menu intently. I smiled and kissed his cheek before picking up my own.

“hey there good looking” a girls voice said. Dakotah and I both looked up. Surprise , surprise it was the not so classy blonde girl with the huge boobs standing in front of this. My blood started to boil. Did she not see I was here. I felt Dakotah grab my hand calming me down.

“excusme me? do I know you?”

“oh I thought for sure that night we spent together in july a few years ago then last month you’d remember me Dakotah” she said smirking at my. My heart stopped, I felt him squeeze my hand tighter he was trying to stop me from leaving. I looked at him who was giving Ms. Bimbo a shocked look.

“july of what year” I ask through gritted teeth.

“oh twelve” she answered making my heart drop into my stomach we started dating  june of oh twelve. And he promised me he never been with any other girl except for me. I squeezed my eyes shut trying to keep the tears back. I would not under any circumstances break in front of all these people.

I jerked my hand away from Dakotah.

“faith, I don’t even know her-“

“then how does she know your name” I say raising my voice. People start to look but at this point I couldn’t be any more embaressed then I already was. “you’re a liar Dakotah, I can’t believe I ever belived a word you said, I told you when we got together I was going to be the only girl you’re with or I’d leave, you swore to me Dakotah, and last month, what happened to I  haven’t been-“

“it never happened” Dakotah snapped standing up. ”who are you I never slept with you, I would never sleep with a bimbo like you” he yelled at the blonde.

“really cause I rember you calling my name more then once and by the way that birthmark on your hip-“ I couldn’t stay hear and listen to any more of this. She got the point across, he cheated on me more then once. He lied to me, and I believed him.

“faith stop!”

“go to hell Dakotah, you deserve her!” I yell as I walk back towards the front doors, instead of doing what I should have, go back to the truck and just ignore him until we got to Bentley, I turned onto the sidewalk and started walking. I was afraid being by him he’d turn on his charm and get me to forgive him when he doesn’t deserve to be forgiven. He cheated on me a month after we got together, then again last month.

I knew I couldn’t blame him for the one last month, I was the one who left him it had been over a year sense I’ve seen him, but it was his fault for lying. If he lied about this hes probably lied about more things I don’t know about. I would have been a fool if that bimbo wasn’t there. I would have never known wht he did. My blood boiled t the thought of it, what else has he lied about? And how many of those bimbo’s are out there.

Don't forgive people because you are weak. Forgive them because you are strong enough to know that people make mistakes.

Those were the words my mom had told me when I was fourteen. I can remember that day is clear as day, it was the day my mom found out my dad had cheated on her. Being thirteen I  thought that mean my parents were going to split up, get a divorce like most couples would.

    As I cried myself to sleep and I told her I didn’t want our family to split up she caressed my cheek and told me that. After that my dad stopped drinking and focused on mom and I, he stayed faithful from there on out.

   But this wasn’t the same, he was unfaithful more then one time, with my dad it only happened once.

    “fay! Stop fay! It only happened once back when we first started dating, she’s lying about last month I swear faith” I hear aiden yell along with his truck sputtering to a stop. I held my hands up telling him to stop.

   “just go home Dakotah, I never should have came back “ I snapped knowing it would hurt him. His facial expression went hard letting me know it worked.

“don’t say that, I swear on everything I love I never cheated on you after that one time in ju-“

“funny isn’t it, this morning it was you never cheated on me”

“I was drunk we got in a fight I thought you were going to dump me, I was scared as hell a month into the relationship and I fell hard for you, I’m sorry faith, I swear it never happened after that!”

“after all the shit we went through and I stayed by you
