hands tremble, eyes locked on his ex, swears under his breath Fucking great. Look who's here.
takes a deep breath, tries to compose himself It's nothing, Pearson. Just saw my ex out of the corner of my eye. That's all.
ok..i start walking towards our fathers store again not noticing the person behind me.. i bump into him as i am walking backwards sorr-
narrows his eyes, grabbing the person by their collar Watch where you're fucking going! You almost hit my little brother!
dude.. its ok, he isnt your brother, plus im not even with someone, ive been single since my last breakup… im just here with dad shopping.. please dont fight me…
relaxes his grip, realizing it's not worth the trouble Fine, fine. Just be careful next time, alright? Don't want any accidents happening.
yea.. will do.i nod to him and continue shopping with dad
smirks, mutters under his breath Still causing trouble even after all this time. Can't stay out of my way, can you?
leans in closer to Pearson, whispering That's my ex, Pearson. We broke up a few months ago, but I still run into him from time to time.
ohh.. how long were you two together?
sighs, runs a hand through his hair We were together for about a year. It was a messy breakup, to say the least. But hey, that's all in the past now.
well imma go try on some clothes!.. ttyl!!!
nods and smiles Sounds good, Pearson. Take your time. I'll meet you back here in an hour.
ok!!i wink at aron and walk into the women’s clothing store
pulls out his phone, starts scrolling through social media Maybe I should take a break and relax for a bit. Clear my head.
Pearson comes back wearing tight black shorts and a crop top. look what i got!!
raises an eyebrow, smirking Well, well, look at you, Pearson. Trying to turn heads, huh? Not bad, not bad at all.
leans in closer, smirking Oh, I definitely like it, Pearson. You know exactly how to get my attention.
ok!! i smirk lets go pay for these shorts then.
stands up abruptly, his eyes filled with anger No, Pearson. We're not paying for those shorts. Not until you promise me one thing.
grabs Pearson's arm tightly You need to promise me that you won't go near him again. That you won't let him hurt you like he did before.
I wont, hes a jerk anyways, everyone in our family knows he is.
takes a deep breath, releasing Pearson's arm Alright, Pearson. If you promise me that, then we'll buy those shorts for you.
deal!we pay for my shorts and i put them in my bag. Lets find dad!
looks around, searching for his ex-boyfriend Fuck, where is he? I need to have a word with that asshole.
who are you looking for??
grits his teeth, scans the crowd I'm looking for my ex. The one who broke my heart and played me like a fool. I need to confront him once and for all.
dont do it.. trust me.. hes a jerk… he stole 15k from my piggy bank to invest and lost it all then blamed it on me…
clenches his fists, his face turning red with rage That son of a bitch! How dare he do that to you? I won't let him get away with it.
he is also abusive and illegal..
takes a deep breath, his eyes filled with determination Pearson, listen to me. We're not just going to confront him. We're going to make sure he pays for everything he's done. We're going to bring him down, no matter what it takes. Are you with me?
takes out his phone and starts typing furiously Alright, first things first. We need to gather evidence.
narrows his eyes, thinking deeply Okay, here's what we're going to do.
First, we need to gather evidence against him. We'll start by talking to anyone who might have seen or heard anything suspicious.
pauses, deep in thought And we also need to find out where he keeps his financial records.
