Elise's Pov-

I got up and moved to the bed. I curled up into a ball and hugged my legs tight to my chest.

Tears flowed down my cheeks slowly, one by one; indicating how my heart was breaking piece by piece.

I want to be strong, I really do. But I can't help bursting out crying sometimes, because I just don't know how things will get better.

A knock came on the bedroom door and I sat up quickly. I rubbed my eyes as Lillie walked into the room.

"What's wrong?" She asked as she sat down next to me.

"If- if it stopped" I said guesturing to my heart. "Would you miss me?"

Lillie looked at me, her mouth open and eyes wide. She started to shake and she grabbed my hands in hers.

"Don't think like that" She stuttered gripping my hands tightly. "J-just don't"

Lillie's Pov-

I took her hands in mine as my eyes widened.

"Don't think like that" I stuttered and gripped her hands tighter, afraid that she might just slip away like she was never even there. "J-just don't."

Only then, was it I noticed how broken she was inside.

Tears flowed down her cheeks and I looked at her. "Don't cry. It kills me to see someone like you, so- so sad. You don't deserve to be."

"I don't know how much longer I can stand this. Stand the pain of knowing I'll never be able to call him mine again" She said shakily.

I let go of her hands and wiped her tears away with my jumper sleeve, only for them to be replaced by new, fresh ones.

"Tears are the unspoken words of the heart" She breathed as she closed her eyes.

"Elise-"

"I'm short of breath and probably out of my mind, but it's alright. I'm Okay now."

It's liked she picked all the petals off of the flowers. But in her heart she knew she loved him... but he didn't love her.

"There's so many feelings that I feel. But there just isn't enough words to describe them. So I keep repeating the same words over and over again like 'I love him' or 'I miss him' and 'I'm sad'. I'm scared that I'll say them too much and they'll loose their meaning. Then I won't be able to say anything at all."

An anger filled up inside of me. Not because of her. Not because of him. But because I knew what was the main cause of all of this...

Jason.

Ty's Pov-

I drove. And drove. And drove; Far away to a hotel the other side of town.

That was a day ago. Now I'm going back home. Single, alone... and without her.

I knocked on the door to the house, holding my breath as I watched the door swing open.

Adam opened the door and stared at me in shock as I attempted a half grin.

"Where did you go?" He said frowning as he dragged me inside.

"I- I went to a hotel the other side of town" I sighed as we went inside the games room and locked the door to talk in private.

"Don't run off again please. I've lost two people I care about, but now I have one back" Adam said smiling slightly.

I was confused but shook it off. "So where's Elise?" I questioned. It pained me to say her name but I had too.

Adam looked up at me with wide eyes. "You mean you don't know either?"

"Don't know what?"

"She ran off with Tyler and Lillie after you stormed out" Adam said in a hushed tone.

This wasn't good.

Jason's Pov-

Finally. Now that her and Ty are broken up, I can finally claim what's rightfully mine.

Nothing's in the way anymore. So it's my time to strike.

What about August? Pft I don't love her anymore. I realised that my love for her had died along time ago. But I didn't want anyone getting suspicious.

I don't care if Elise doesn't feel the same way about me. I don't care if she thinks of me as only a brother/bestfriend. I see how uncomfortable I make her. I see what effect it's having on her as a person.

I will make her mine. And there's nothing no one can do to stop me.

Just you wait.
