MAL READ the title on her laptop's screen, slightly taken aback as she scrolled on her trackpad.

...Is Timothée Chalamet dating Lily Rose-Depp?

Actor Timothée Chalamet was seen last night coming out of a supermarket hand in hand with Lily Rose-Depp. Are the couple back together? Did Timothée leave his partner Mal just so he could go out with the famous Lily? So many questions left unanswered.

Stay tuned for more.

Attached to the article was Timothée's picture, holding Lily's hand and trying to cover his sad eyes from everyone around them. They were both holding groceries.

She rolled her eyes and scrolled fast to the comments, deciding to see what their fans thought about that situation.

Anonymous1: Lily. Is. Abusive. Please someone call the police on her.

Anonymous2: Clearly he's not enjoying himself. Save him!

Anonymous3: Save poor Timmy. Lily was abusing him before and clearly she's abusing him now.

Anonymous4: I love Lily so much. Timothée doesn't deserve her.

Anonymous5: Mal was way better. Is Timmy okay?

Anonymous6: I loved Mal more. At least he was happy with her. He looks like he's being abused, for God's sake! Please, someone call the police on Lily.

Anonymous7: Lily is a terrible person. I don't why so many people love her but... Life, I guess.

She felt bittersweet.

A part of her hated that Timothée was in a situation like that, and a part of her felt slightly better that the public agreed with her on the fact that Lily was abusive. None of them really knew the truth, of course, but at least it was something.

She let out a small tear of confusion, then began to let out muffled sobs.

She had no idea what to do.

She continued to scroll through her laptop in distress, trying to calm herself down. She felt her heart pound in her chest loudly and ache in guilt.

She should be out there saving him. She would've done anything to be with him at that moment, she wanted to feel him comforting hug again. She would've done anything to see his sincere smile, the one everyone was dying to see.

So why wasn't she doing something about it?

Why wasn't she saving him from the two-faced devil he was stuck with?

She stared intently at the wall for only a few seconds before she stood up quickly, then went to change her clothes.

As soon as she was done, she wrote a quick note and left it on her bed, then tiptoed out of her room, and down the stairs. She grabbed a few things into her purse before heading out.

Locking the front door behind her, she hurried towards her car, which was lying untouched in the garage, and pressed on the button on her keys to unlock it.

She sat on the driver's seat and hit her head against the steering wheel for a few seconds, then turned her sight on the road.

While turning on the engine, she began to drive while muttering only one thing.

"Here goes nothing."
