Chapter 35

We got back to London and I had jet-lag again.


I never had it so bad until I started flying from London to New York.


We got back to the Beckham's house and I was beyond thankful. Just because of my jet-lag.


"I'm going to take a nap." I announced as we all took our coats off.


"Sounds good, dear." Victoria said.


I walked my suitcase to the elevator. Then got on.


I went to the third floor where my bedroom was. I was too tired to walk. So elevator it was.


I went up to my room and started to drift off to sleep when I got a text.


It was from Hadley.


"Beware. Valerie is crazy." She sent.


It was random that she had sent it just randomly because we weren't talking about Valerie... In fact we weren't even taking. The last thing I said to her was how I was going to come back to London.


I had no idea what to say, so I just responded with the "😂" emoji.


I then put my phone on my night stand and drifted off to sleep.


I woke up to a knocking on the downstairs door.


I walked all the way down the stairs and saw a note on the counter.


"Out and about with Brooklyn and Harper. Xo, -V / D"


Okay. So Victoria and David where gone, and I was guessing Romeo and Cruz were sleeping.


I walked to the door and opened it.


"What are you doing here?" I asked as I saw Valerie standing outside the door.


"I could ask you the same thing." She said, looking me up and down.


"I live here." I said, "what's your excuse?"


"My boyfriend lives here!" She said.


"Brooklyn?" I asked.


"No, even though I wouldn't mind him." She said, grinning.


"Cruz?" I asked, shocked.


"No... Couldn't I be like arrested for that?" She asked.


"I don't think so... But then who?" I asked.


"Romeo silly!" She said, laughing.


My heart dropped. Was Romeo cheating on me?


"Can I come in?" She asked.


"Um sure." I managed to choke out words. "You can... Um sit down. Ill go get Romeo up."


I walked up the stairs to Romeo's room, which was right next to mine.


I walked in. He was asleep.


I shook him.


"Wake up your girlfriends here." I said, being rude and cold hearted.


"I know, I see her." He said as he leaned in to kiss me.


"Not me." I said as I put my hand on his lips. "Valerie."


"What?" He said. He instantly sat up.


"Better go talk to her." I said as I got off his bed and started to walk away.


"But Phoebe, I'm not dating her." He said as I walked out of his room.


I wasn't ready to talk to Romeo. Not now, probably not ever.


I went into my room and locked the door.


"Phoebe!" I heard Romeo say as he stood outside my door.


I opened it.


"You should really go, your girlfriend is downstairs, and I would hate for you to keep her waiting." I said as I slammed the door shut before Romeo could say anything else.


I heard his footsteps walk away.


I started to cry into my pillow.


I actually loved Romeo. He just didn't love me back.
