Begin Again - Taylor Swift

Camilaâs POV

"I'm sorry, I just can't do this anymore." He said softly, I felt my heart shatter into a million pieces, he was always there, he always stood by my side, he loved me and I loved him. But everything we had, has just been thrown out the window by those simple eight words.

"What can't you do anymore? Did I do something wrong? I don't... I don't get it." I felt tears threatening to fall from my eyes, he reached his hand to my face and brushed the fallen tears on my cheeks with his thumb, "you've done nothing wrong, I promise, it's just, I found someone else, okay?" his eyes started to get glassy, suddenly I felt this rush of anger run through me, and after everything we've done? After four years? He breaks up with me, after everything I've done with him, for him, he just suddenly 'finds someone else'? I step away from him, making his arm fall and sway by his side, "Mia..." he says, clearly hurt,

"Don't, just please don't, not right now Austin, after everything? How could you do this to me?" my voice shakes, he sighs and reaches into a pocket and pulls out I piece of paper and holds it out to me, I look at him confused, he clearly sees my confusion and nudges his hand closer, "just read it, it will explain everything. Goodbye Camila." I grab the piece of paper from his hand, he turns around and crosses the road, hops into his car, looks at me one last time before smiling slightly then he just drives away. Goodbye Austin.

Took a deep breath in the mirror

He didn't like it when I wore high heels

But I do

Turn the lock and put my headphones on

He always said he didn't get this song

But I do, I do

I look at my reflection and sigh, 8 months, it's been 8 months since I saw him. I read the letter as soon as I got home that day, it said he joined the army, I cried myself to sleep that night, he said he found someone else, that was a lie, why would he lie if I was going to find out the truth straight away anyway? Today was going to be dreadful, I can tell, I was wearing black, a black dress that went to just above my knees, a black cardigan and black heels, he never liked it when I wore high heels, partly because whenever I danced I would stand on his feet or it was because they made me taller than him. I sigh and close my eyes, humming, Austin never liked this song, maybe it was because he never got what it was about, but why dislike a song you don't get?

"Karla? Are you ready to go now?" I hear my mom call from downstairs, no, I donâÂÂt live with my parents, it's just my moms my ride.

"Yes mama!" I grab my purse from my bed before looking in the mirror once more, I walk down stairs to be welcomed by my mom with tears down her face, just by seeing that I burst into tears,

"Oh mija..." she enveloped me in a hug, "how about we just go get this over and done with huh?" I nod my head, we walk out to the car, and head off.

*An hour into the service*

"Austin was an incredible person, he was brave, caring, lovely and most of all he was my son, I miss him dearly, when he got the letter saying he was accepted into the army, was the moment I realised he wasn't my little boy anymore. He was growing up, I got scared, scared I was going to lose him, and sadly that fear has become true, I lost my little boy" Austin's mom just couldn't carry on, she just walked over to his coffin and wept.

"Now we will have a few words from Austin's girlfriend Camila. Camila?" I look up to see people looking at me, girlfriend? Its ex-girlfriend. I slowly get up from my chair, and walk up to the podium, I put my paper on it and look up at everybody, I look to Austin's mom who was staring at me, as if waiting for me to correct the man, we never had a good relationship Austin's mother and I.
