Her.

Fifty Three

London sits on her bed staring at her phone dripping with tears, her heart in agony blasting rock music that Juniper liked, trying to shake the image of her head in that box. It seemed unreal as if was some sort of dark joke but with everything going on with police enforcement and media around Junipers death made her snap back to reality that Juniper was gone...Faye winning once more.

Faye.

The name itself brought so much hatred, making London feel dumb for even thinking there was something in Faye when it was just misery and agony surrounding her presence. If she hadn't given Faye the time or day; London wouldn't be so deep in her mind and would've actually graduated living her life but instead was holding it back. It was so hard to not cry all day and night knowing Juniper wasn't coming back to the apartment to give her daily rants of her day, missing her touch.

She sniffles, her phone still in hand, standing up before a loud creak came from behind. It sent a chill down her spine, slowly turning around to see Faye stand there with a soft expression, dressed in all black, her hair slick back into a long ponytail, fear kicking in. Londons eyes were wide, unlocking her phone but it was quickly snatched and throw against the wall smashing in pieces, London gasp as Faye opens her mouth to speak but London beats her to it, "Y-You killed Juniper! You fucking killed her! You monster!" London rages coming towards Faye who stood her ground, London swung a fist but misses as Faye grabs her arm, seeing London ready to swing again Faye turns her body, pressing it together holding both of her arms as she began to scream and thrash. "Let go you fucking murderer!" She screeches still trying to fight but Faye tightens her grip. "Let go!"

"London, shush, London." Faye soothes with London still fighting. "London, please, I-I'm sorry."

London ignores at first still giving it her best until the last two words rang in her ears, making her body die down slowly her face full of rage but somewhat of...remorse. She looks at Faye who stared back at her with the innocent love, she had before, "W-W-"

Faye lets go of Londons arm before taking a step back, "I'm sorry...I...I'm fucking sorry, London." She suddenly becomes overwhelmed. "I don't know why I came here but...a 'sorry' won't bring her back, London...I...I..." The two of them overwhelmed with how for the first time Faye was remorseful, "I killed her and-and I dunno know why...I keep thinking of you and-and why I'll never be happy meanwhile Juniper gave you everything I didn't...I left Will...and-" Her lip quivers with tears spilling, Londons eyes go wide seeing Faye was trying her best to hide it. "This-This-I-..."

London gives her a confused look, "You killed Juniper and expect me to be at your knees? I gave you everything when I had nothing left, Faye White." She shakes her head. "Faye...I loved you...and then I loved Juniper...and you killed her." The more Faye predicted how London would keep talking leading it downhill, she felt ill hearing her words come out like daggers and in the heat of the moment, Faye locks lips with London and to her shock; she didn't pull away. It was as if those same sparks came rushing through Faye, feeling alive. Londons lips intoxicating Faye as their kiss deepens pulling her small body closer, the feeling of regret overbearing her feeling as if she truly was blinding herself with William trying to live a perfect life.

London pulls away crying before wrapping her arms around, Faye burying her face in her chest. "T-This isn't good for us, Faye...I don't think I have it in me to forgive you..." London sniffles as Faye held her tightly. "We don't belong together, Faye...I have proven my loyalty through everything yet...you haven't." London looks at Faye who had tears streaming down her cheeks, in pain that this really was it for them. "You finally broke me...You...You killed my girlfriend, Faye White...I can't forgive you." She sniffles breaking the contact. "Just let go...I'm so drained..."London begins to softly cry covering her face as Faye swallows hard taking small steps towards her.

"I know what I did was unforgivable but...I'll be waiting, London." She says her voice cracking kissing Londons forehead. "I'm-I'm leaving tonight."Londons head shot up as Faye's eyes went wide as if she never imaged those words coming out. "LA is toxic...My fathers coming back , the more I know where you are...the more I find it hard to keep myself away from you, I can't deal with it...I'm losing my shit."

"Where will you go?" London ask the girl inside her hoping she didn't mean it.

Faye shakes her head before kissing her lips once more, "This is the end, London...I Love You." Her voice soft with pain as London began to cry holding onto Faye shirts not wanting her to leave. "London this isn't good, we need to live life and stop this from holding us back, We can't be together, you know what'll happen."

"I-Its okay, Faye...I'm stronger now, you-you can't leave me."

Faye furrows her brows, "Live life, London. Fall in love, have kids, grow old...grab life by the balls, remember me from one of the darkest points in your life and grow hatred for all I care, You and me can't be together and I will forever hate that I made you like this. You have a smile to light up the room, your beauty is like no other London, own that shit."

"I thought I was just a blonde bimbo." She grins as Faye follows along.

"Goodbye, my love." Faye strokes her cheek gently as London hold her hand, both dreading of moving on but knowing Faye's strong character, she walks away with a heavy heart with London looking back her heart broken once more before she looks at a photo of Juniper, her chest feeling heavy knowing this was character growth for Faye. She was finally realizing how cold her heart can be and toke action.

William sighs rolling his side, his green eyes opening seeing an empty bed side, furrowing his brows sitting up looking around Faye no where in sight her phone resting on the dresser, "Faye?" He calls slipping out of bed his heart racing bolting out the room onto the stairs. "Faye!" His breaths turn quick realizing she was repeating her actions; leaving people. The feelings his younger self felt slapping him in his face, as Faye was half across the states crying since the encounter with London.

William runs outside her car missing as he begins to break down crying, "Faye!" He screams before falling down on his knees.
