"The ex Girlfriend"
11th December 2014
When i was 17, in the band Mind over matter with my cousin and friend Nick Morgan, Nick was always breaking up with his girlfriend Laura, and fighting constantly.
I had never met her and he hardly spoke of her.
When they finally broke up for good and he was getting with every girl he spoke too, we also had stopped talking, and months later Laura had been talking to me. Over a period of time we decided to go to Carols by candlelight together, which at the end shared our first kiss, and began a relationship of over 2 years.
The first few months were great, when she introduced me to her parents who i adored, i felt right at home. They were a really big Italian family, I spent one Christmas with her whole family and it was the biggest Christmas i had been too.
Her Dad was a cop, and would always be trying to get me to go to the police force, i didn't really have any desire to do that apart from to make him proud so we talked a number of times about it. Laura's mum was a school teacher, and probably the nicest lady i had ever met. I practically lived at their place, and moved my computer and clothes there.
after about 12 months we started arguing constantly, and i was fairly sick of it but decided to keep trying in hope it would get better. It finally got to the stage where i didn't want to be with her anymore and she didn't want me to move on, one night i was sitting at home talking to my cousin Simon on the computer, mum was working and my phone rang.. i answered it to hear a guy say "you have made a big mistake, I'm gunna break your legs!" Simon had heard the conversation as it was on loud speaker, and before i could tell Simon to get to my house, he was already out the door on his way.
I also rang Curtis my brother in-law to come over, i had no idea who was supposed to be coming but i expected a car load of guys... Simon was at home in less than 10 minutes which means he was probably doing about 150kph to get there. Curtis had pulled up and was trying to calm me down, Simon was ready with a baseball bat and as Curtis had expected they didn't turn up.
Just goes to show what sort of woman Laura was to do that to me over an argument in a relationship.
Simon had told me to leave her and never speak to her again. i didn't listen. i ended up back with her, and by this time the family had hated her and didn't want me to see her.
Another night she caused chaos, was a night i was home alone again, we had been fighting again and i told her i didn't want to see her, she constantly rang and texted me saying she wanted to see me, i ignored the phone and didn't respond to her messages. I was playing poker and talking to my brother and Simon online, it was about 3am, i heard a knock on my bedroom window, i knew it was her. i ignored it.
Lucas and Simon could both hear her banging, i couldn't talk back to them because she would hear me, so i texted Lucas and said "i cant talk because she will hear me".
She was going to every door in the house banging and screaming. next thing her Dad knocks on the window and says.. "Adam can you just give me her bag and ill leave". So i grabbed her bag, ran to the front door and put it on the doorstep and shut the door. When she came and seen the bag she obviously knew i was in there, she basically went psycho at this point and nearly smashed the door down.
i was thinking of ringing the police but i figured they would leave eventually.
3 minutes later she smashed my window!
I had had enough i shouldn't have to put up with that, i ran outside and screamed at her. She was bashing into me so i picked her up and carried her down the front to her father, he must have either thought i was hurting her or he just wanted to punch me, he came towards me and threw a punch, i dodged it and ran inside and locked the door.
Simon had heard the whole thing through team speak and rang my phone. He was raged and told me to put her father on the phone. i went outside and said someone wants to talk to you. Simon basically told him if he didn't leave he would be coming down. He grabbed Laura and left.
I rung the police who turned up and when they came inside i noticed team speak was still on, i had pressed record and had the whole thing on record. I played it back to the police, and told them her dad is a cop. they basically laughed at how much of a psycho she was and couldn't believe her dad brought her there at 3 am and didn't leave when i asked him too. They asked me did i want to charge her, i said no.
After that incident Simon had told me once again to leave her. I didn't listen and started seeing her behind every ones back. There was know one who accepted us being together except my cousins ex boyfriend woody, who was still apart of the family. I would often visit him and started taking Laura there and staying the night. it was the only time we could really spend together without anyone knowing we were together.
We spent maybe a month going there constantly, she had started a new job down in salamanca, we had started fighting again, this time i had enough and grabbed her neck and put her against the wall, woody came over and pulled me off her. a few nights later we talked and i said ill pick you up from work Monday night, she said OK.
Monday night came and i waited outside her work, it was strange there was no cars and it looked like nothing was opened. i rang her and said I'm here. She said, where? i said I'm outside your work. "oh Ive already left". i said where are you. "I'm at the welcome stranger with some work friends.
So i drove there, that was shut. i tried ringing her again she screamed at me and said leave me alone.
I was a bit shocked, and had this gut feeling she was with woody. for the last week she had been really quite, and so had he. I rang my cousin Reece and asked him to come for a drive with me..
When i picked him up i told him i suspected her to be at woodys, he kept telling me that he wouldn't do that, and i was over thinking things. I drove to his place and parked up the street.
We walked down quietly, and it looked like there was no lights on. just as i was about to leave i walked up to the bedroom window and heard everything i needed to know.
I bashed on the window, i was ready to kill this guy, i went to the door and had i known his two boys weren't in there i would have kicked the door in. He was yelling out to me saying "stop being stupid Adam its only Michelle" i kept telling him to open the door and prove it, but he couldn't.
He then obviously was shitting himself and told me he was calling the cops, so i ran back to my car, and my phone rang, it was the police.." is this Adam? are you the one banging on doors"? she told me if i was there when i got there i would be arrested. I took off back to her place, there was a part of me that was hoping i was wrong. When i got to her house i knocked on the door, her dad answered he said what do you want? i said is Laura here, he had told me yes and that she is in bed, i made him go and check, when he came back he said "no she isn't here". Then i knew. i told him she was cheating on me with my cousin, i went inside and was talking to her mum, she was telling me that she wouldn't do that, i just kept telling her to open her fucking eyes, 10 minutes later Laura walks through the door. Starts screaming at me the argument lasted 10 minutes, i left and took Reece home.
I was sick to my stomach when i knew i was right, I rang Simon the next day while he was at work. I started to cry and couldn't really tell him, but i knew that once i did he would just about kill Woody, Simon asked me what was wrong, i Told him. He took a deep breath and said, "oh well he is done then". I really felt scared for what was about to happen to woody. Simon rang me that night and said he went there after work and waited for half an hour but wasn't home.
A few weeks later Simon was at a bucks night of his best mate, the best man was woody. Simon tried to keep cool and not cause any trouble, but once woody mouthed off at the table, Simon walked up to him and knocked him out with one punch, i think he even got a broken jaw. I guess that's the least he could of got.
Simon told me for the third time, and this time he meant it, "if you see her one more time we are done", and it was.
It took me months to get over and i was pretty heart broken, but once time had past i looked back on it and just couldn't be happier it ended like that. Because if it hadn't god knows how long we would have kept going like that for.
Her and woody spend about 2 years together i believe, and from what i was told it was 2 years of hell for him.
