Tom's POV

As she walks away from me I slowly feel myself disintegrate into nothing. Each step she takes the more lost I feel. I don't know what to think, the only thing I know how to do right now is cry. I fall to my knees onto the pavement as my whole world collapses. This feeling I have inside of me right now is the worst feeling I've ever felt before. Sobs escape my mouth as my breathing gets heavier. This is my fault, there's no denying it. I fucked up. And because I did this, I just lost the most important thing to me, the one person who brought out the real me...the one person I actually loved. I feel my airways start to get smaller and smaller as I cry more and more. I can't have a panic attack, I can't, because she's my only cure. I hold onto my neck as I gasp for air. I take in deep shaky breaths to try to calm myself, but the harder it gets to breathe the more I start to panic. I fall back and bring my knees to my chest. Tears stream down my face and I squeeze my eyes shut. I try to imagine her face and her touch. I try to imagine the way she would hold me against her chest and calm me down. I put my head into my knees and hold my head,

"Just make it stop, just make it stop.", I say repeatedly over and over again. I don't know how long I sat there on the ground, but eventually, my breathing was almost back to normal. The tears have stopped flowing and all that's left are the trails that they have left behind on my cheeks. I stare forward emotionless. I clench my jaw and get up from the ground. I start walking back towards the house in fast strides. I push past people as I go back to where Allison and Kaden were. They're in the same spot and once I see them anger takes over me. Allison spots me first and a smirk appears on her face,

"Oh no, did she leave?", she fake pouts. I swear if she wasn't a girl I'd fucking kill her, but I can kill Kaden. He looks at me and I pull him up off the couch by his shirt,

"What the hell-", but I don't let him finish his sentence and I punch him across the face. He falls down onto the floor and I don't even give him time to recover. I get on top of him and punch him again. Allison screams at me to stop, but I totally ignore her. Adrenaline is running through my veins as I punch him repeatedly. I feel Allison's dirty hands grab onto my shoulders and pull me back. Kaden takes that as an advantage and launches towards me. He punches me in the face and my head turns to the side at the impact,

"You're a fucking dick!", I say through gritted teeth. I go to swing for him again, but he beats me to it and punches me. I get the taste of blood in my mouth and right as he's about to hit me again, I catch his fist. He looks at me surprised and I take my knee and kick him in the groin. He groans out in pain and falls onto the floor next to me. I'm about to go at him again, but someone grabs me by my arms and pulls me up off the ground. I use all more force to get out of their hold, but they have my arms locked behind me. I look down at Kaden and I realize that I really did get him good. His face is covered in blood and he's laying on the ground moaning in pain. But I don't give a fuck, he deserves it. I look around and a crowd has formed around us.

Allison stands there looking like she's terrified, but she's just fucking pretending to be a victim. She should be grateful that I can't touch her, but I made sure Kaden got her deed. I yank away from the person who's holding me and I turn around to see Nathan,

"Don't fucking touch me or I won't hesitate to fuck you up too.", I spit at him. I push through the crowd of people and rush to get out of that house. I spit blood out of my mouth onto the lawn and wipe under my nose. Blood appears on my thumb and I look down at my hands. I curse under my breath as an I look at my busted knuckles that are covered in mine and Kaden's blood. I quickly start my car and speed out of there.
