Please comment and vote. I really want to know what ya think!!!!!

Eva's POV

What do I do? Do I let it bother me? Nah I won't let it bother me life goes on? Did I do something wrong? Maybe I was doing something wrong?

My heart was crushed. I couldn't stop thinking about what I did wrong. Just a month ago we were doing so good, what the fuck happened. I don't know I just don't know. I needed to get away but I needed someone to talk to. I knew I needed to be back at the office, I had way too much shit to do at the office to be fucking crying over this nigga.

I hated feeling like this. I told myself time and time again to not let a guy hurt me the way that Corey did. Bryson didn't come close to hurting me as much as Corey, but he fucked up big time. I guess it was for the better. I knew if I see Bryson I would break down, I really did feel some type of way for him.

The worst of it all was he didn't even care. Most guys want to talk about it or tell you to wait, he let me walk out the door. I guess it was going to be like this, I knew I couldn't be too harsh because at the end of the day I worked for him. I needed a paycheck every week and living in New York you needed money.

I just sat in the parking lot just letting my mind roam. I knew if I walk in there I would fall apart. I know it's crazy to fall in love with a guy in a month but I did. Bryson was the second guy I ever fell for. I was scarred from Corey so it was hard to let my guard down but I kind of did. I'm just glad I didn't show him all of me.

I finally pulled myself together and walked into RCA. I was trying to avoid Neil or Alex. I knew Alex would make me talk and honestly I didn't want to. Well that changed quickly when Alex popped up from under her desk "Hey Eva! Oh girl I was looking for you, come here" she waved me over. I couldn't escape now.

"Girl where have you been. I wanted to go out to lunch with you" she told me. Alex was so happy and the more happy she got, made me want to cry. "Oh my God are you about to cry?" Alex asked. I tried, I tried so hard not to let the tears fall but they did anyway. "I'm sorry..... Um......I...... Fuck..... I have..... To go" I cried, quickly running to the elevator. I needed to get away. I was always holding my feelings in and this time it all just came out.

I had made it to my office and instantly broke down. I just couldn't help it anymore.

FLASH BACK (13 Years Ago)

"C'mon Eva it's okay. It'll be really quick okay" he said. I knew what he was going to do again. I had told my mom previous that he was raping me but she never listened to me. Why wouldn't she listen to me. I guess I was too young to know anything right.

"No please, not again please I don't want to. Aria said she's going to get you next time you do the bad thing to me again" I whispered. "Aria doesn't have to know, and if she does find out I'm going to keep you forever" he told me. I believed him, he made me lie to my mom and tell her I was going to my friends house, but that never happened he raped me in his van.

"Okay! Okay I won't tell her" I promised as he came closer to me. I wanted to run away but where can I run. The guy lied me down on the bathroom floor and raped me. I cried and cried hoping someone will hear me but no one did, not my mom not Aria no one was here to help me.

END OF FLASHBACK

"Eva girl open the door" Alex said from the outside of the door. I quickly wiped my face and opened the door. "Yeah what is it?" I asked. "Girl don't play with me you just broke down on me out there. What's good" Alex was this sassy black girl that always told it like it is. When I started working here last month she was instantly on my ass, asking me all these questions; her best friend Calvin who also worked here was the same way too. " It's nothing Alex . I'm just going through something right now but I'm okay really." I assured her.

Alex was not about to fall for it at all and true enough she didn't."Girl what's going on. Wait is it Bryson? I been seeing y'all flirtin it up lately" just the mention of his name made me cringe. "No" I replied. "Yes it is. Girl you can't hide it from me. I know y'all been hooking up on the down low. Have you seen the way he be looking at you. Y'all like some teenage runaways. Y'all go out to lunch and breakfast I be seeing y'all running through the halls laughing it up". I missed that, I missed it so much and knowing it won't be happening anymore hurt me.

"We'll you don't have to worry about that anymore Alex".

"Wait why? Did you guys break up? Hold up y'all was cute why'd y'all break up? Girl y'all was so happy. I don't understand" I needed her to stop talking she wasn't making it better at all.

There was a knock on the door and I wasn't getting it, it could be Bryson and I didn't even want to look at him. Alex went to the door and opened it, revealing the one person I didn't want to see.

"Can we talk Eva?" He said. I couldn't look up I just couldn't it hurt too much.

"Alex could you give us a minute" I asked, finally looking up. "Alright well you know I'm here for you girl" she whispered". I gave her an assuring nod and waited for Bryson to step inside the room. I walked over to my desk and had a seat, Bryson doing the same as well but in the seats in front of me.

"I'm really sorr-"

"Save it! I don't want to talk about anything that doesn't have to do with work. I made it clear an hour ago" I said, I was now pissed. I knew he only wanted to say sorry because he felt sorry for me.

"Just listen! damn Eva can you listen for once"

"No I can't listen I did enough damn listening. TrapSoul did a lot of talking. I heard you loud and clear" I yelled. I was livid right now. Having the damn nerve to come back here telling me I needed to listen that wasn't cool.

"I'm sorry okay. I'm sorry for leading you on. I'm sorry for saying the kiss was just a kiss when it actually meant something to me. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for hurting you Eva I swear I'm sorry". I couldn't believe him. I wouldn't believe him. I would be stupid if I believed him.

"I hope she's not as stupid as me" I told him.

"Your not stupid. I made a mistake with trying to get back with my ex. I realized she would never be as good as you. I'm glad I realized before it was too late" he replied. Bryson was saying everything I wanted to hear but I could care less, he made me look like a fool.

"Well everyone makes mistakes and I learned from mine. I will never fall for someone like you again. I'll rather be alone for awhile and find someone that loves me just as much as I love him, than fall for someone that doesn't love me at all" I replied.

"Just give me another ch-"

"No! hold on I have a call" I said as I reached in my pocket to retrieve my phone, it was Stanford university.

"Hello!"

"Um hello this is Mrs. Knox from Stanford School Of Medicine, I'm calling regards to Eva Carson" she asked.

"Yes this is she"

"Great! There will be an annual graduation here in Stanford next week. I just seen your GPA you are graduating Valedictorian with the highest academic achievements of the class". I was speechless I couldn't believe it.

"OH MY GOD! ARE YOU SERIOUS" I screamed.

"Yes! You will be down next week correct" she asked.

"Yes of course. I'll be their a day early I'm coming from New York"

"Oh wow your very far".

"Yes. Thank you so much Mrs. Knox you just made my day" I spoke. I was so relieved.

"Well I'll talk to you next week. Thank you Ms. Carson" she said and with that we hung up. I looked up and Bryson was staring at me. "What was that about?" He asked.

"I'm graduating next week, so next Thursday and Friday I won't be here I'll be taking the day off" I replied.

"Your going on tour with me next week"

"No! I have a graduation to attend to" I told him.

"Well I guess you'll be missing your graduation"

Oh my gosh what the heck. So is Eva gonna miss her graduation? Should Eva Fall for his apology. Eva's flashback to when she was 7 had me in tears. Comment on what y'all think is going to happen. Let me know how y'all feel in the chapter.
