Cliché, Complicated and Confusing.

Marshall's POV

"I fucked up."

"Dude stop beating yourself up. You were aiming for the wall. You hit the wall." Dylan says as I walk back into the kitchen after my shower. My head was straight again but what I did was unforgivable. If that hit Emily I would have never ever let me get back with her. I couldn't even control my self.

"She kissed Kayden. She always does this to me. I mean, with strangers I get it. At a party eventhough I can't stand it but Cara and Kayden..."

"You let her kiss strangers at parties?"

"If it happens it happens." I shrug.

"Wow, you sideman. How you letting your girl do that." Dylan asks.

"I know Emily and its to avoid her just getting up one day and saying she want to see what's out there."

"Wow." Dylan says. I sigh getting up. "Where you going?"

"I need to speak to Emily."

"I'll come." Dylan says. "I'm almost sure that she is at the house."

We drive over and surely, Joshua's car is parked at the driveway.

"Is Emily here?" I ask when Eliza opens up. She nods letting us through.

"Marshall. What are you doing here?" Tasha asks. "I came to see Emily." I say as she walks into the livingroom where Josh was sat with Noah.

"Seriously, I just came to see Em." I say annoyed some intervention was taking place.

"Maybe you should just take that break. You guys are hurting eachother and honestly for her safety I think you should give her space." Josh says.

"I would never hurt Emily." I say offended he would question it.

"Well you were pretty damn close." Josh says and I know when it came to his kids he wasn't playing games.

"I know I messed up but I would never intentionally hurt Emily."

"He wouldn't." Dylan says behind me defending me. I roll my eyes at the Millers. Walking out of the room up the stairs myself into Emilys room. She sat on her bed with her hands in her hair tears rolling down.

"Em... I'm so sorry. I would never hurt you, you know that right." I say sitting down on the floor infront of her.

"Do I? All these weeks you have been the complete opposite of the sweet and caring Marshall. You just switch like that." She says clicking her fingers.

"You think I'd ever lay a hand on you?"

"No." She breathes not even looking at me. "I love you Em." I say pulling her up into my arms. I them remember the reason for this mess. Her kissing Kayden.

"But, your dad is right were toxic." I say. "Were just hurting eachother now."

"You're breaking up with me?"

"I can't let this go on any longer. I'm sorry." I say quickly walking out before I change my mind. I walk down the stairs bumping into Noah and Dylan. "So what happened." Noah asks.

"Nothing happened." I say walking out the room. I grew up with the Millers and eventhough I was always said to be part of the family, I never really was. Even if I dated Emily. Even if my stepdad was Joshua's best friend. I walk down the steps and head to my car. "Hold on." Dylan says stepping out behind me.

"You sure about this?" Dylan says and I nod. Its time for me to move on anyway. I have waited too long around and a move would be great. I needed to escape this place.
