Matt's POV

"You know where I stand Val. I love Case. That's not gonna change because you suddenly realized your mistakes." I told her.

I pulled out of her arms and stood a distance away.

"I know you still care about me Matt. We were together for a long time." Val said.

"Yeah we were. And our relationship ran its course. I still care about you.that's not gonna change. But you trying to jeopardize my relationship with Case is going to make me reevaluate if I want you in my life or not." I told her.

Her eyes widened and I could tell that she knew I was serious.

"If you don't make a real effort to get along with my girlfriend, I'm gonna have to ask you to go back home." I said.

She was quiet for a minute before she nodded.

"I'm gonna go see her. Gonna be okay?" I asked her.

She nodded again and I turned, expecting to see Case.

My eyes crazed in confusion.

She always watches our shows.

I saw Jason walking by and I hollered at him.

"You seen Case anywhere?" I asked him.

"I saw her heading towards the bus forty five minutes ago." He said.

I clapped him on the arm and walked over to the bus.

It was completely dark and that stopped me for a second.

Maybe Case isn't feeling good and she's taking a nap.

I opened the bus door and a cold swirl of air flooded around me.

What the hell?

"Case?" I called out, walking up the stairs of the bus.

Silence.

"Babe?" I said, looking around the dark bus.

The silence that filled the bus was eerie and  surrounded me with a sudden sense of dread.

I flipped on all of the lights and my eyes scanned the bus.

Case was no where thi be found.

"Case?" I called again, walking back to the bunks.

The drawers under my bunk were open and empty.

All of them were Case kept her clothes.

My throat tightened and I saw a piece of paper on my bed.

I slowly picked it up, my fibers shaking slightly.

'Matt, I know your probably confused. You expected to see me once you got off the stage. And when you didn't see me there, I'm sure you went looking for me on the bus. I'm sorry that I left the way I did. Without goodbyes and so suddenly. But,' something came up and I had to leave. I saw you with Val and realized that we were kidding ourselves thinking we could make this relationship work.You and Val should be together, and I hope you are happy. You are am amazing man and you deserve it. Your always on my mind and I hope thou enjoy the rest if your tour. Love, Case.'

The letter fell from my open hand and my eyes were wide.

She's gone.

How can she be gone?

I fell against the wall, my kegs feeling weak and unable to handle my weight.

"Matt!" Zacky yelled.

A stampede of footsteps were heard coming towards me and then Zacky and Jimmy were pulling me over tho the couch.

"What happened?" Brian asked.

"Are you okay?" Val asked me.

""She's gone." I whispered again.

"Whose gone?" Johnny asked.

"She's gone." I said again.

They were the only words I could get out, and they felt like bricks in my chest.

She's really gone.
