Valentine's POV

    Chris then proceeds to keep throwing glances at Tyler and I while were eating dinner. I know the looks he's giving me. His eyes telling me what he wont. "Hey Tristan, can you grab B from his room, he needs to eat" Chris asks politely like the total gentleman he is. Always such a sweetie. "Vals are you okay, you seem off" Tyler nudges me whispering in my ear "huh, yea, just got a lot on my mind" I shrug him off. I excuse myself from the table and make my way up to my room I run into Tris and he throws me a sad smile. 

    I get into my room and Bryan is sitting at my window bench with the book I wrote in his hand. "you know they really had one beautiful ending" he looks up at me with hooded eyes. I feel my chest tighten as I remember who the story is about, I can feel the tears well in my eyes. " yeah, yeah they really did" I walk over to him slowly. "you never told me who it was about ya know?" he says as he gets closer to me, turning us around so my back is towards the wall, closing me in. He puts one hand above my head, "y..yeah" I let out a shaky breath trying not to let him know how much he affects me.

Bryan's POV  

    I can tell when Valentine is trying to hide something. She gets stiff, and shaky, and has no control over her body. "I think maybe I know who its about hm" I push her beautiful golden brown hair behind her ear, and place my hand on her cheek caressing the corner of mouth. She moves her head to the side looking away from me.

     "If you know then why are we in this position right now?" she asks me pulling away and looking in my eyes.  Now she's not hiding anything. I've got her right where I want her. "Now look at me princess, look in my eyes and tell me its not a story about us" I smirk. She pushed my hand away grabbing the book and ripping it in half and throwing on the floor on her way out of her room. "You know what Bryan? fuck you" she cries and slams the door closed. That's all I needed to hear to know I was right. 

    "fuck" I say under my breath letting what just happened sink in. I just hurt the person I care about the most, I made my best friend cry, and by the look in her eyes I broke her heart. I can read her like an open book, she wears her emotions on her sleeve. I should have just fucking left it alone, she would have told me when she was ready. 

    I walk out of Val's room after cleaning up the mess I caused. I walked into the bar room and grabbed a beer or maybe four, and walked out the the balcony and drank them down like water. I feel a cold hand on my shoulder causing me to jump. "oops sorry B didn't mean to scare you" I hear Emery's cute giggle. "its alright love" I smile. 

    We Just stand on the balcony staring at the stars in complete silence for hours. I look over at her and admire the way the moon light makes her skin glow, and the way the stars twinkle in her blue eyes. I never really noticed how gorgeous she was until now, I've been so focused on Val to know what was right in front of me. Emery would be so mad at me if she knew what happened upstairs just hours ago. I should have known that Val was in love with Tyler, you can see it in her eyes, from the moment she walked into the house, even if she doesn't know it.

Valentine's POV

    He just wont leave anything alone will he, what the fuck. He should have just let me tell him on my own, when I was ready to tell him about the part of my life where I was utterly in love with him. 

    "Tyler, where are you?" I call from the bottom of the stairs. "On the couch darling" I faintly hear from the theatre room. I make my way to where Ty is spread out on the couch watching Tangled. I throw myself onto his chest, and he reacts my wrapping his arms around my back and kissing the top of my head. He always knows when to just hold me and not talk. He knows me. That's why I love him. 

   Oh my god I'm in love with Tyler I smile to myself. "Thanks for just holding me Ty" I look up at him only to notice he's already looking at me smiling like a maniac "always darling." I lean up far enough for our lips to be close enough to touch, Tyler puts one hand on my cheek caressing it with his thumb. "kiss me" and that's all I had to say for him to grab my head and kiss me like our lives depended on it.
