"Can we please take it down." I said

"Are you serious?" Dawson said annoyed

"Take it down." I said angrily

"Hey, it's okay. I'll take it down." The man said

"Thank you." I said

My heart beat felt like it was thumping out of my chest.

We walked outside as I looked up at him angrily and waited for him to talk.

"That's exactly why I brought you here, to prove that your photos are great even Marcus thinks so." He said

"I don't want this photo hanging on the wall of some random stranger." I said angrily

"This is my photo." I said crossing my arms

"That means I get to decide who I share it with and I shared it with you." I said

"You're right." He said

"I'm sorry. I should have asked you first." He said

"I just wanted you to see how amazing you are." He sighed

"And that you can get into Rhode Island school of design." He said

"Who said anything about RISD?" I asked

"Kasey said your art teacher thought you could get in." He said

"I'm gonna kill her." I said

"It is the best art college in the country." He said angrily

"And it's in providence which wont be that far from where I'm going." He said

"Which If you get in we could be together." He said angrily

"For real. Without a ticking clock." He said

"Even if I could get into RISD, which I totally doubt, I cannot afford that." I said angrily

"You're going to get into RISD. And you could just get a scholarship." He said angrily

"No." I said angrily

"Dawson, Jesus, just give it up." I said angrily

"This is.. you can't fix everything." I said annoyed

"What?" He said

"You're parents marriage and me." I said angrily

"Some things are just beyond repair." I said

"Is that why you won't say you love me?" He asked angrily

"Because you're... beyond repair?" He said

"Okay." He said

"That's..." I went to say

He walked inside as I sighed and stood there sadly as a tear fell.

I made it back home and I ran upstairs to my room as I slid down the door.

Tears streamed down my face as I cried into my legs in pain.

One week later...

A week had gone by and we barely talked and when we did it was awkward.

Me:
Hey are we still on for tonight?

Dawson:
Sorry. Have to cancel.

Me:
How come?

Dawson:
My dad showed up here unannounced and things got pretty messy.

Me:
Sorry- that totally sucks

Dawson:
I'll call you when I'm back.

Me:
I really miss you, Dawson.
