*1 and 1/2 years later*

(((Maya's pov)))

Good things never last with me...

Never.

He left. After all we've been through he left. Exactly 4 months ago he left. Literally.

He just looked at me and said, "Maya, I don't feel the same way anymore. I'm sorry. Go find Lucas or something."

It killed me. I hate Lucas, he left Riley for missy and it just killed me. I just couldn't believe Josh left me. After everything we've been together. Not to mention Farkle. That kid is a science genius. Married to Smackle. Married at a young age and approved at that.

And here I am, rotting in my old apartment. Sitting on the floor in tears. That's basically how I've spent the last four months.

Forget school, forget friends, everything leaves anyway.

I mean, I haven't even eaten for two weeks. All food in my house is gone. What do people expect from
Me? Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

I just don't understand how he could just leave me like that. I mean for God sakes, he saved my life. It just liked as if he had something troubling him. It was very weird.

All of a sudden there is a knock at my front door. Why would anyone want to see me. I haven't talked to anybody, except Riley every once I a while, since Josh left me.

Wait.

Could it be Josh at the door, could he have come back.

When I open the door, it's not Josh. Instead, it's a bigger man. Dressed in all black. He looks me straight in the eye and says, "come with me." He grabs my arm and begins to walk off.

"No!" I scream and yank my arm away from his grab. He turns around toward me and gives me a look that could put me 6 feet underground.

"Listen Hart, your coming with me, even if I have to throw you over my shoulder like a sack of potatoes."

With that, I run away, but guess what, when there Is a big freaking WWE wrestler blocking the door, I run toward my room and then, Guess what? Just guess.

If you said, he picked me up and threw me over his shoulder then walked out the door, then your right!

Because that's exactly what he did. Even through all the kicking and screaming.

You would've thought the doorman would've done something, but no...

He had his nose shoved into his phone so he didn't even notice us leave. Even though I was screaming my lungs out.

"Shut up, you little punk!" The big man screamed. He then threw me into a car and that was the last thing I remember before it all went black.

<(°-°<)

I woke up with my hands tied behind my back and in a warehouse in the middle of nowhere.

Now, how many times have I been in a situation like this. they were all started by...

"Father." I mumbled as he came out of a room where all the windows were blacked out.

"Ahh, where's lover boy" He smirked. It was a knowing smirk.

"What do you care, more importantly what did you do to him!" I screamed.

"Nothing, nothing at all" he smirked. The look was awful. It was a stomach lurching look. I feel like it could put someone, me specifically, 6 feet under ground.

"Now Maya, you have been a burden on my soul all my life and I'm tired of you even being alive. Your not even worth a penny to me and apparently not your lover either. I mean, he did leave you." they guy said. Yeah, he's not even my father anymore. He just a guy.

A guy I don't care about.

"Didn't I tell you he would leave Maya. That's what you flirt for being a ignorant brat" he said. His face fell to a frown as he stared at me. Next thing I knew my face was stinging.

I glanced up and realized my fa-
No, a guy had slapped me.

"Finish her off Hunter" He said, "She doesn't deserve to live anyway"

He was about to walk off when We heard pistol being cocked back.

What I thought: this is the end of my life. It's all over. Josh is gone.
Riley's just... I don't even know. My mom- gone. And now, I'm just going to go right along with her.

But that's not what happened at all.

I turned towards the noise and saw a guy standing there. He wasn't a big guy, but nor was he small. The gun was blocking the view of his face. He had dark brown hair and was wearing a leather jacket with a grey shirt and a pair of dark black jeans.

You could tell by The gun shaking in his hand that he was nervous.

"You said-," the guy started as he lowered the gun just a little bit, but enough to reveal his face. It was Josh. "You said, if I left her, joined you, and forgot about everything, that you wouldn't hurt her! You promised! I trusted you on that, and now I see how stupid I was!"

What he said made my heart leap. Yet, sink arctic same time. He had more trust in that man, than our relationship.

"Let her go." Josh said. His voice emotionless, but his face was streaked with tears.

"Josh, you were supposed to be out, not here." the old man sneered.

"Let her go!" he screamed. When the man didn't budge, A gun shot went off and I thought I actual died. Until, my father, dropped on the floor. As dead as a deer that's hanging on a wall.

Then every man in the room had their guns drawn and Josh visibly gulped.

As everybody was having a stare down, I slowly untied the roped around my hands and wrists.

At the least expected moment, about 35 SWAT members busted through the warehouse doors and all the men scattered.

I heard foot steps behind me as someone untied the rope that were around the top of my arms and then untied the ones around my thighs. As he looked up. We made eye contact and I felt like it was only me and him in the world.

Me and Josh. That's it.

After all the ropes were untied, I stood up and me and josh immediately hugged as I cried into his shoulder. The more I would cry, the tighter his hug would get. It felt amazing to be loved again.

But, it just had to be ruined by a SWAT member.

"Ma'am," The Guy spoke as he looked at me. A worried expression came across his face. "What happened exactly?" He asked.

And that's when I told the whole story of what happened.

After it all, Josh took me back to his house. His house.

"Maya, I'm sorry. I really do love you and I couldn't ever not love you. Damn, I was just trying to protect you" He said.

"Josh, look at me, I wanted to die. After you left me, I felt like I was dying. You don't even know what you did to me, but right now, I couldn't be more happy that your with me." I smiled.

"Maya, It may have been awhile, but, I just want you to know, that I love you." He said. The nerves were fresh in his voice. Although, that didn't change my reply.

"I love you too"

And then we kissed.
