Twisted

Chapter 12

((I wasn't planning on doing one today but MERRY CHRISTMAS)).

Amy's POV

The next morning we woke up and drove to Nick's house.

Seeing him was possibly the most heartbreaking thing ever. He looked so hurt. I knew i couldn't second guess this though. It would just make things worse.

"Hey James... Can me and Nick talk in private?" i asked.

"Sure." he left.

Nick kinda just stand there. It was obvious he was broken inside. I just hugged him. He flinched but he hugged back.

"I'm so sorry." i muffle into his jacket.

He didn't respond, i could only feel his tears hitting me on the shoulder.

I started to cry too.

Its not a small thing that you could just let go.

Its not like we were together for a couple weeks, leave him and be done.

We were together for a couple years. We had a house together. We loved each other with everything we had, which wasn't much. Maybe i'm making- no. i need to stop thinking like that. Its just- we've been through so much. He has seen me at my best, he has seen me at my worst. He's been through everything with me.

By now we were both sobbing and still hugging.

"I love you Nick."

"I love you too Amy..."

We just continues to cry.

"I didn't want it to end this way." i said.

He rubbed my back in circles. "I know you didn't... No one did."

"We had all these wonderful memories together. Now they all just end."

"Don't think about it like that. At least you will be able to have a bunch of new memories with James." The weird thing was- he wasn't using it mockingly, he was using it to try to make me feel better.

"But... I don't want memories with you to end."

"I don't want them to end either..." by now we were sitting on the bed.

"Nick, be honest, what do you think we would be doing right now if this whole James thing had never happened?"

"Probably watching some TV, cuddling eating pizza, like we normally do."

"I want that."

"I do too. More than anything in the world. But you said that James was the one and you can't keep bouncing back and forth."

"I know..."

"Do you remember that time in high school, when that girl, Diana, kissed me? And we fought all that time. Do you remember how that felt."

"I wish i didn't."

"Well right now is like that, but instead, i'm leaving you for Diana."

Ow. "I never meant for it to be like this."

"I know, but it is like this now, and we can't ignore it."

I didn't reply.

"I know you want to go. Thats fine. But just remember, i will love you through anything, including this. Now, whenever you look down at the locker, think of me. I love you Amy... Goodbye....".
