Chapter 31: "Goodbye In Her Eyes" - Zac Brown Band

Lyrics:

I could tell that it was over
When her lips met mine
It was an emptiness in her voice
Hesitation when she smiled
She didn't have to say a word
It was just so plain to see
She had found what she'd been looking for
And I knew it wasn't me

I saw
GOODBYE IN HER EYES
I don't think I can change it
There's no way to disguise
We will never make it


Sometimes I feel like a clown
Who can't wash off his make-up
All she wanted it was gone
Prince Charming I wasn't
But I would trade a thousand Babylons
To be in her arms tomorrow
But like tide her love has come and gone
And it's time for me to go

I saw
GOODBYE IN HER EYES
I don't think I can change it
There's no way to disguise
We will never make it


Now she sees right through me
Should I hold on to what we've got
Is it just a waste of time
One thing that I know for sure
I saw
GOODBYE IN HER EYES
I saw
GOODBYE IN HER EYES

I know you got somebody new now
All my candles have burned out
He's gonna love the way you shine
So did I

So don't smile at me if it ain't what you need
With that
GOODBYE IN HER EYES
I know that I can't change it
(Now you see right through me)
There's no way to disguise
We will never make it

I saw
GOODBYE IN HER EYES
I know that I can't change it
(Now you see right through me,
GOODBYE IN HER EYES)
Should I hold on
We will never make it
(Now you see right through me,
GOODBYE IN HER EYES)
Should I hold on
Is it just a waste of time

One thing that I know for sure
I saw
GOODBYE IN HER EYES
I saw
GOODBYE IN HER EYES
I know that it's over

      I was in the deep depths of despair when I woke up the next morning. I was in pain, not only did my hand still hurt from punching and slapping last night, but my heart felt so heavy. Are Jax and I over? He was the most important person to me, but what he said to me hit home. I'm not sure if it was forgivable, but I wanted to forgive him.
       It was two o'clock in the afternoon, I was still in my pajamas and on the couch. No text message, no phone call from Jax. If he wasn't going to take back or apologize for what he said, neither was I. It still didn't stop me from looking at my phone, and hoping I would hear something from him.
       As I was watching some random sad romantic movie on TV, Dex came out of the kitchen with two bowls full of ice cream. He made it just the way I like it, with a shit ton of chocolate syrup, whip cream, and maraschino cherries. I sat up from the couch, and grabbed the bowl from him.

"Are you trying to make me fat?" I asked.
