After 15 more minutes outside, McCoy and I went back in with everyone else.

Everyone was still sitting in the same area and position we left them in. Only this time, Micaela was next to August comforting him.

I walked over to where Maya was sitting and right when I was about to ask her something, August came over and stood in front of me.

"Umm..can we talk?" he asked, nervously.

"Yeah.." I said.

He held his hand out for me to hold and I grabbed it. Right when I closed the door behind me to go to the backyard, he grabbed me and kissed me.

"I don't want to lose you ma. Shit. That thought hasn't even come across my mind at all, to keep it real witcha." he said.

I wasn't sure what to believe. Everyone was confusing me and this was all coming at me so fast, that I haven't officially processed it.

"August, I don't know about you but i'm tired of getting these mixed signals from you. If you want to be with me, then so be it. But if you don't, just tell me because I don't want to get heart broken...again."

"I don't understand what mixed emotions i've given you." he said.

"You have your moments for showing you want to put an effort into this relationship, but the other times it seems like you were either forced, you're regretting your decision, or you're just mad at me."

He cleared his throat, "First of all, I make my own decisions and you know that. Second, if I regretted anything would I be right here trying to fix it with you?" he said, angry.

I sighed, knowing this conversation wasn't a conversation anymore. It was another argument.

"You need to stop assuming that i'm mad. Do I have a reason to be mad at you? No, so stop saying that. It's annoying."

If only guys understood how to apologize and actually say the right things. Like why am I the one always apologizing when I don't do anything wrong?

"Ok, i'm sorry. I won't do it again." I promised him.

"Thank you." he said.

"But don't you ever think 'Hey maybe i am doing something wrong if my girl is always bring this topic up?' I mean maybe i'm asking for too much, but just think about it sometimes." I told him.

He frowned, "I guess I need to.."

I had one of those moments where I actually had courage to walk away towards my car to leave. He didn't feel it was necessary to apologize, so I honestly feel like he doesn't care about me. Everyone knows those cliches about relationship. There is always one person who cares more in a relationship than the other.

"Jade, where you going now?"

"Obviously you wouldn't care anyways. You don't know how to accept that you're wrong or how to apologize. Tell me August, am I another one of your games?" I asked.

He didn't respond, he just stood there.

I waited, hoping he would tell me how foolish I am for thinking that. Hoping he would apologize and give me his warm hugs.

But instead, he stood there, in silence. I felt like someone just ran me over. Tears instantly falling down cheek.

"Really? Then I guess we're done." I told him, turning around and running to my car.

I saw Maya and Micaela watching from the window. I immediately wiped my tears and started my car. The last thing I need is one of those "He wasn't worth it" speeches.

I drove out of Tre's drive way and quickly made my way to my house. I packed my bag and I was going down to my beach house in Panama. I quickly booked the next flight to Panama City, while I was packing. In between Maya and Micaela were blowing up my phone to look for me.

I finally answered Micaela's call.

-Phone Conversation-

"Where are you?" she asked.

"Airport." I told her.

"Where are you going?"

"Somewhere. Please don't find me. I'll come back in 2 weeks, just let me be alone. I'll call you if I need something, ok?" I told her.

She sighed, "Fine. Be safe. Maya and I will always love you."

"I know." I said, smiling.

-End of Phone Conversation-

I was grabbing my toiletries and bikinis, when I decided I would get a ride to the airport from Uber. I got my phone and requested a ride 10 minutes from now.

I finished packing up my clothes and stuff. Now it was time for my technology. I grabbed one of my book bags and started stuffing my laptop, charger, iPad, and all that junk into there.

I was finished just in time when I heard a honk outside. I looked out the window to see McCoy's car. I sighed in disappointment. I realized he was the only one who could actually know where I would go. I saw another car pull up right behind McCoy's car, and it was the Uber driver.

I got all my bags and suitcases, and head out. Once I locked up my house, I went straight to the Uber car.

"Can you open the trunk? We're going to the airport." I told him.

He nodded his head and climbed out the car. He helped me put my bags up and right when I was about to open the front door to get in, McCoy slammed it back.

"I'm coming with you." he said.

"No you aren't." I told him.

"Why not?"

"Because I need this time for myself. Please, I know you know where i'm going but keep it a secret for me. I'm really only asking for two things from you." I told him.

"What's the second thing?" he asked.

"Make sure you learn how to run away from August." I told him, chuckling.

He laughed, "Fine, but i'm only doing this because I understand."

"Thank you."

He grabbed my arm, and hugged my tightly. I was the one who broke the hug because I knew if I stayed to long, I would've changed my mind.

Right when I reached for the door, McCoy called my name.

"Jade!" he said.

I turned around and I was being kissed.

WHAT'S GOING ON?!?!

WTF!

"Just because you're single and this is probably the last time i'll see you in a while." he told me.

I smiled and hugged him one more time. He pulled away and I quickly got into the car. I told the man to drive off fast because I didn't want McCoy seeing me cry.

"Why so emotional?" the Mexican driver asked.

"Men are hard to handle." I told him.

"Very true, senorita. But you must understand everything will fall in place soon." he told me.

"Hopefully." I mumbled.
