TIME SKIP TO DECEMBER 8th
(it's ok if your confused, your meant to be confused this chapter lol)

they stood there.
in front of one another.
crying.
hurt.
pained.
both breathing heavily.
she bit her lip.
he stared at her intently.
the sky seemed to get darker every second.
the stars were like diamonds in internal darkness.
the only light was from the moon.
sparkling it was...but for such a night like this one...it shouldn't have been.
he stepped closer to her.
as he did that, she stepped back.
he reached his hand out.
she flinched.
his hand slowly made its way to hers. he softly held it. he walked closer to her. he looked at her. he saw the pain. he saw the tiredness. he finally saw it all. he finally realized.
"baby..." he croaked out in a small whisper.
she slowly looked up at him.
her eyes filling with pain. suffering. tiredness.
he never saw this before. not before this night. but because of the events that had just taken place...he now knew.
she looked worn out.
he lifted his other hand to her cheek.
at first she moved away from it, but then gave in.
she stepped back from him.
"i cant" she whispered.
"please..." he begged.
"no finn" she lightly shook her head.
he was taken back. his name. he hadn't heard her say his name in so long. he missed it.

from everything they'd done together...this was happening.

her voice was practically gone.
she was still crying.
as was he.
tears kept leaving their eyes.

she looked down and shut her eyes tight.
she let out a sob.

he couldn't bare to hear that. his girl. his baby was crying.
he put his arms around her. she held onto him. she sobbed. he didn't let go of her. he couldn't.

she was tired.
physically and mentally.
she wanted to just close her eyes and never open them again.

although she knew that could never happen.
she knew she shouldn't have been holding onto this boy.
she knew that she shouldn't have been sobbing to him.
she knew that she should never have gotten close to him.
she knew that she should never have caught feelings for him.
she knew that she should have never caught feelings that she didn't even understand.
she knew it all.
but yet, some how, it all still happened.
she didn't know how she let this happen to her.
she loved him.
she loved him.
she loved him.
she loved him.
she loved him.
but how?
how did it play out?
it all happened so quickly...
but how?
she truly did not know.

she loved him.
and that's why she was going to do this.

she stepped back from him.
he looked at her, eyebrows furrowed.
she couldn't look him in eyes.
she turned around.
she spoke, "y'know finn...goodbyes hurt most when the story isn't over...and the book has been closed."
and before she was about to open the door to her home, she said two words that would destroy him...
"goodbye finn"
