(Jaden's pov after the breakup)

My heart ached. Watching my feet move away from her while I knew she was about to break. Tears were surfacing my eyes, my face as red as a fucking tomato. Why'd I do it? Because I was told to. Josh- fucking Josh. More will be explained but, it was only to protect her. Sure I know she'll hate me. Purely hate me for what I caused her. But I will be with her. At the Dance. She had to still go. She has to. I will be waiting for her, making it up. Right?
"You did good bro," Josh laughs maliciously.
"Get the fuck away from me!" I yell. Pushing him away and grabbing the door handle of my car.
"What?! You actually like her?!" He chuckles.
"What do you think?! Your sick- so fucking sick!" I scoff.
"I told you- the deal was to get with her! You did! Idk why it was so hard to let her go?" His eyes roll, walking towards me.
"You can't make me believe you like her when you've told me everything you've done with her?" He laughs.
"You know I actually do! You've been known. Why do you think I haven't ended it sooner?!" I push him, shoving him onto the floor.
"'You got your points! What else are you mad about?!'" He questions,
picking himself up and wiping the dust n rocks on his light wash jeans. "Those fucking points can go to hell! Along with the money! I'm done!" I say and hop into my car, speeding away with my eyes streaming. I've never cried this much. Never in my life was I so inflicted in a girl that started off as well, the most points on a fucking high school game. She was worth 100, 100 points to be her boyfriend, then break up with her.
But that was my problem. I found myself not wanting to do it. She's made me feel so many things. So many things that I would die to know the secret behind. I found myself sitting outside her house that night. My red car in her driveway. Watching the lights in the house turn on and off, informing me that her mom is not home. Kendra would always mess with the lights. Mess with the different lights in the room when she was alone, mostly be her mom wouldn't bug her about the electricity bill. I chuckle at the memory I had of her running through the house, all of the lights on as she jumped into my arms.
I was sitting there, a selfish, worthless, piece of shit that ended the happiness between both me and her. I loved her. I hate to say it but I do.
I will always. But, I don't think she would forgive me. I sigh. Watching the last light go off in the kitchen. I then started my car back up, and made one of the worst decisions of my life, drove away.
I didn't know it, but that was the last witness I had of her. The closest I would've been with her. Distance-wise. I never knew that she was so hurt by me, that she fled the city...tbc
