Scarlett's POV

Y/N is my girlfriend. And a pretty fucking amazing one. She does everything for everyone and she is such a lovely human. She is the definition of selfless, Never in our 2 years of dating has she done something for herself. Today however I wanted to prank her.

I decided when she get home from work I would 'Break Up' with her as a prank. She gets back at 5 and it's 4 right now so i've just got to set up a bit.

Firstly, I put all the dishes away, WITHOUT making dinner. Which she will notice straight away because dinner is always finished and plated up for when she gets in from work. Then I take the engagement ring off. I've had it on for 6 months and never taken it off and she will notice that too. Finally I get myself ready to look like i'm leaving with a bag and my shoes on.

As if on que she walks through the door. "Hello my love i'm home!" Y/N shouted through the door. I'm sat on the sofa with my head in my hands and she realises how upset I look. All of her bags drop and she comes over to me putting a hand on my knee and an arm on my back. "What's wrong love?" She asked. Then her breath hitched when she saw the ring missing on my finger.

"If you've lost your ring it's okay, My darling. I can always buy you another one." She reassures rubbing my back. "I haven't lost it. It's right here. For you to have back." I said opening my hand and putting it in hers. "Wh-babe why what's happened?" She asked me.

For the first time since she got home I made eye contact with her and she looks so scared. "You've been crying... Did i do something wrong?" If only she knew she couldn't be more wrong. "I've just... recently things have been different.." I say looking back down. My actions were stopped when she lifted my chin up to meet her eyes once more. "Well I can take some time off work if you'd like? Just tell me what i've done.." She tries. I ripped my head out of her grip and looked down.

"This. We're barely what we used to be. I need a break from this. From us.." I say looking down. God I feel terrible. "I can change! I'll quit my job and we can stay here, yeah?" She says holding my hand which I just rip away. "Please Scarlett If you need me to change I will because I love you and don't want to lose you.." This is breaking my heart but it's just a prank.

"I can't do this. I'm going for a break. I'm going to go to the hotel down the road until we figure us out. But we can't be together anymore." My heart shatters. "I still love you... but if it means that you're happy, i'm happy. I'm sorry I wasn't good enough. You stay here I'm going to go. This is your apartment after all." With that she gets up, kisses my forehead and picks her bags back up.

"Wait baby!" I shout. "Goodbye my love. If you need anything you know where I am." She smiled before leaving the apartments. Shit.

The minute she left I broke down. My legs went like jelly and I fell to my knees. "I'm sorry baby come back!" I say lightly. I know she can't hear me but god I wish she could. She was willing to change herself for me and I did that to her.

Then it hit me. I should just message her. I stood up and sprinted over towards my bag and started searching for my phone. My hands fiddled as I tried to press 'call' on her name. That was before a message came through from her. The message read:

I'm sorry if I hurt you. I'm sorry I didn't do what I promised i would do. But i'm still going to be here for you. I still love you more than anything and I'll still be here for you. I promised I'd be with you through thick and thin and if you think I wouldn't of been able to handle the bad things I would've for you. I still love you and I hope your next love doesn't do what I did wrong. Love, Y/N.

She's gone. Like that. Why did I do something so idiotic! I'm so stupid. I probably should message her back to tell her but it's like all the muscles in my body stop working. The only thing I can do is fall on the floor and curl myself up as I begin to cry.

I can't message her! Its too hard. Instead I decided ringing Lizzie would be the next best thing.

"Lizzie.. I did a bad thing!" I cried hard down the phone.
"What's wrong, Scar? Has something happened between you and Y/N?" She asked.
"I didn't mean to hurt her! Come please Lizzie I need you!" I wailed. With that I turned off my phone and continued to sob my heart out. Never in my life have I been so fucking stupid.

10 minutes later im still crying on the floor but Lizzie burst through the door. She ran straight over to me and held me in her arms. "I've got you Scarlett. It's okay I'm here." She cooed. "I pranked her, I told her I needed a break as a joke and she's actually gone!" I cried. "Oh darling, it's okay i've got you." She cooed.

"Let's get you off the floor." Liz helped me off the floor and I didn't let go of her. "Did you not tell her?" Lizzie said looking down at me. I felt so small. "I tried but she left and before I could message her telling her she sent me this.." I said passing Lizzie my phone so that she could read the message.

"You are a numpty. I'm not gonna leave you tonight, but tomorrow I will go to Y/N and explain as much as I know, alright?" She said. I nodded into her and we just laid there in silence except for my cries.

I'm such an idiot. I've lost the one thing in my life that kept me going and it's all my fault.
