Betrayed By Everyone Loved by Four Chapter 55
Milo's P.O.V.
*************************
I can't stop thinking about the call with Millie last night. Something was bothering her. By the end of our conversation I could tell that she was feeling better, but I knew there was something she wasn't saying.
Had Leo's short message really made her feel so sad?
I had doubted that. Leo is always short, and Millie is always ready with a snarky comment about it. So, what could have happened? Something was definitely off.
We have been at the office for just a couple hours. Atlas has been going on, and on about how much he misses Millie since we got here. Not that I didn't share in his pain, but I just wanted him to shut up. Oliver has been sluggish all morning, which is very much unlike him.
The only good thing about this morning was that Leo brought us all coffee, and we all got to message Millie. I knew telling Millie to go to Leo's bed would put him in a better mood. And Millie is already in a better mood just by hearing from us. She's only been up for about an hour though.
Our phones all dinged. I pulled mine out to see that Millie sent us all a selfie. It's just a normal picture. She's even still in her pjs, but she's never looked so beautiful. Millie added how much she missed us, and fuck I miss her too.
"Guys, I have something to tell you." Leo announced.
We all looked up at him.
"Everything okay?" Oliver asked.
Leo sighed. "You guys are going to be mad." He said.
"Great." I said with an eye roll.
We all stared at Leo waiting for him to continue.
Leo cleared his throat. "Holly is in town." He announced.
We just blinked at him.
"I'm sorry, what?" I asked.
No way I had heard that right. Sure, Holly was still texting and calling me, but I told her over and over that I don't want here. She had told me she was going to come see me, that if we could just see each other that I would understand. I told her to keep her crazy a*s where it's at.
Leo sighed. "I saw her last night." He admitted.
My jaw dropped.
"You what?" Oliver asked. "How could you do that to Millie?"
"What would posess you to think that was a good idea?" Atlas asked.
Leo looked at me, as if he was waiting for my comment.
"What the fuck?" Was all I could manage.
"Look, she wouldn't stop texting me-" Leo started, but Oliver cut him off.
"You should have blocked her like the rest of us did! Now, because you had to play into her little games, she's here! What if Millie finds out about her? What if she shows up, and starts drama? Millie might not want to go through that for us. She's already been through so much with her bullies at school." Oliver ranted.
Wow, I've never seen him this way. All we could do was stare at him. He looks like he's ready to punch Leo in the face.
"Calm down Oliver." Leo ordered. "I didn't give in to her games. I ignored her. Not one time did I reply to her, and she came anyways." He said, and then looked to me. "Have you replied to her?" He asked. Oliver scoffed. "Milo blocked her like Atlas and I did. He was actually smart." He said.
I gulped.
Leo just stared at me like he already knew that I hadn't. When I didn't say anything Oliver and Atlas turned their heads to me. I still couldn't bring myself to admit it.
"Oh my fucking god.. You didn't block her?" Atlas practically roared. "Are Oliver and I the only ones that have any sense? Are we the only ones that want Millie?" He asked angrily. That pissed me off.
"Don't fucking say that. Of course I want Millie. I love her." I defended myself.
"Then why haven't you blocked her?" Leo asked.
I wasn't sure how to anwser.
Truth is, I'm not sure why I didn't. Maybe I liked the attention from her? I never replied to her. Maybe I just like the torture? Maybe I just need something to remind me how good I have it now? "Milo, I'm not asking to yell at you, but we need to know. Why didn't you block her? Do you still love her?" Leo asked.
I shook my head. "No. Not at all." I said. "I'm not sure why I didn't. I don't really have an excuse. But I want Millie. Just her. I don't want Holly. I never even replied to her messages. I have no idea why she thought it was a good idea to come here." I said honestly. Leo sighed.
We were all quiet for a moment. Shit, I hope they believe me. This is quite a change from how it was the last time we were all here talking about this.
"What did you guys talk about last night?" Oliver asked breaking the silence.
"She asked me to meet up with her. I did. She tried to tell me that she missed us all, and how we were her best fuck, and yada yada." Leo said with an eye roll.
"Yeah well, Holly has fucked enough people, you'd think she could make sex good all on her own." Oliver muttered. "Besides, Millie is way better in bed." He added.
"Oh fuck yeah she is. Mind blowingly better." Atlas agreed. "I think that sounds like a bullshit ass excuse for Holly." He said.
I had to admit that Atlas and Oliver have a point. Holly had been with the four of us, and others. She should be a damn pro by now. Which means, she was probably here for something else.
"Tell me you asked her what she really wants." Oliver said with a roll of his eyes.
Leo nodded. "I did. Took me a minute to get her to stop with her bullshit, but she admitted why she really came." He said.
"And what is it she wants?" Atlas asked.
Leo looked up at me. He didn't speak right away, which only added to my anxiety. I have a feeling I'm not going to like what Leo has to say next.
"She wants Milo." He stated.
We were all silent.
"And you told her, 'fuck no he's ours' right?" Oliver asked.
"I told her that Milo doesn't want her. She told me that she didn't even care if we joined them sometimes." Leo said.
Leo sounds angry. Hell, I'm sure he is. After everything that bitch did to us, and now she's back thinking she can have some kind of claim on me. The only girl that gets to claim me is Millie.
Oliver scoffed. "How nice of her." He said sarcastically.
"Is she delusional?" Atlas mumbled.
Leo looked back to me. "Do you want her?" He asked me.
"What?" I asked back.
"Do you want her?" He repeated. "Look Milo, if you want her then fine, go be with her. The rest of us will take care of Millie-"
"But it won't be the same without Milo." Oliver interrupted.
"Not for us, or for Millie." Atlas added.
"I know." Leo said. "But the choice is Milo's." Then he looked back to me. "We won't hold it against you forever Milo. We love you. We are family, we just want you to be happy. If that isn't with us, and with Millie then.. that's okay. We won't stand in your way. Just tell me what it is you want." He said.
"I.." I trailed off as I looked at each of them. "I want you. I want Millie. I want to stay here, and all of us to be together. I love you all. I don't want Holly." I said confidently.
Atlas blew out a loud breath. Oliver smiled at me. Leo looks proud, an expression hard to come by with him.
"I told her that you wouldn't want her, but I don't think she's going to leave." Leo said. "She said that if she could just see you that you would change your mind."
"I won't." I said determined.
Leo smiled. "I know."
"So, what do we do now? I don't want Millie finding out about this." Oliver said.
"Are we sure it's a good idea to keep it from her?" Atlas asked.
Leo rubbed the back of his neck. "Maybe it's best we keep it to ourselves for now. We can tell Millie about it after Holly is gone. We can explain everything to her." The rest of us nodded.
"So, what now?" Oliver asked again.
Leo looked at me. "I say we invite her here today. Then you can tell her you don't want her in person, and tell her to go home." He said.
My eyebrows shot up. "You think that'll work?" I asked.
"I think it's worth a try." He said.
"Uhm, okay. Guess I'll call her?" I asked.
Leo nodded to me. I pulled my phone, and scrolled to her contact. Taking a deep breath I pushed call. Holly picked up on the first ring.
"Milo! Baby, I miss you so much! It's about time you talked to me! Oh my god Mi-"
I had to pull the phone away from my ear. Just like normal she never shuts up. It's annoying as all hell. How were we ever even attracted to her before?
Leo motioned for me to put Holly on speaker, and I did so.
"So what do you say Milo, huh? You want to get together? Can you believe I came all the way here for you?" She asked.
"Uhm, no I can't. I didn't realize you were that much of a stalker." I said.
"Oh Milo." Holly giggled. "You're so silly."
I cleared my throat. "Look Holly, I think we should talk. Can you meet me right now?"
"Of course I can, just tell me when and where."
***************
"You sure that this is a good idea?" Oliver whispered.
Holly just told us that she got here, and is on her way up here. I'm a huge bundle of nerves. What if she's right, and the moment I see her I fall in love all over again? That would destroy everything right now. "It's going to be fine." Leo said.
The elevator dinged, and the doors opened. I held my breath. Holly practically ran out of the elevator, and flung her arms around me. I stayed frozen.
"Oh Milo! I'm so happy that you called me!" She gushed as she squeezed me tighter. Holly rested her chin on my chest, and looked up at me. "Did you miss me baby? I missed you so much." She said. "Uh.." I trailed off.
Nothing. I feel nothing for her. If anything, this is a bit awkward. Hugging Millie feels much better. Hell, just being lightly touched by Millie feels better than this.
I reached around myself, and pryed Holly's arms from me.
"No Holly, I did not miss you. At all. And I would appreciate it if you kept your hands to yourself." I said.
Holly frowned up at me like she couldn't understand why I would say that to her. I've said worse to her before. She's acting even crazier than normal. Holly turned her frown to Leo. "You did this."
"Leo didn't do anything Holly. I just simply do not want you to touch me. We are not together. We haven't been for a while now." I said.
Holly turned back to me. "But.. I don't understand." She said.
Oliver pulled up a chair. "Have a seat Holly."
We had set up some chairs in a cirlce before she got here. All of us took our seats. Holly glared at everyone, aside from me, before taking her seat. "What's this about?" She asked.
"I called you here to tell you that I want you to go home Holly." I told her.
Her jaw dropped. "No way. I'm not giving up on you that easily Milo."
"I do not want you Holly." I stated.
Holly waved her hand in the air. "Psh, you do, it's okay."
All of us gave her an incredulous look.
"No Holly. I do not. I want you to leave here. Go home. Don't talk to me anymore." I told her.
"You want me to leave?" She asked.
I nodded. "Desperately."
Holly stood up, and walked over to me. She stood in front of me for a moment just staring down at me. I raised a brow at her.
What is she getting at? Is she going to try to kiss me or something? God, I hope not.
Holly is just standing in front of me. I crossed my arms, hoping that my body language would make her stop whatever she was about to do. Unfortunately, I wasn't so lucky. Before I could process it, Holly straddled my lap. She wrapped her arms around my neck, and pushed her chest into mine. I gagged. Out loud. I couldn't help it.
Holly brought her lips to my ear. I looked at Oliver. He shook his head, and rolled his eyes. Atlas is looking just as annoyed.
Leo sighed and stood up. He came up behind Holly, and looped his arms under her armpits. Just when he was about to pull her off of me, the elevator dinged again.
