Brie's POV
The sun was shining through the curtain hanging on the hotel window. I slowly opened my eyes, I still felt Colby's arms wrapped protectively around me. I glanced over at him and found him still asleep not wanting to wake him I stayed still in his arms. Suddenly, I realized that I didn't have an episode last night. Internally I was both ecstatic but also a bit sad, I was happy because I realized there was a cure to my episodes. However, that cure came in the form Colby and it seemed as if with each day I was near him, I got his hopes up that I would one day be his. With that in mind, I got up slowly unwrapping his arms from around me. As I got up, I noticed another note but this time it was on the door of the hotel room. As quietly as I could, I walked over and examined the note which read." Aw, don't you look so cute sleeping in his arms. However, don't forget who you truly belong to Brianna. It's only a matter of time before I get my way.-B.D." I re-read the note multiple times, I immediately wanted to sob but I fought back the tears. As foolish as it was to hide this from Colby, I know I needed to. The last thing I wanted was to bring someone else down with me. What many people didn't know is Daniel had a dark side and when he was angry there is no stopping him, he may be small compared to Colby but Daniel fought dirty and used tactics. Not only that, I couldn't stop remembering the gun Daniel had, the gun I knew all to well, as it had been pressed against my head more times then I'd like to admit when I disobeyed him. There was no way, I'd put anyone in that type of harm, especially Colby. I knew what I had to do and I needed to do it now. As quickly as I could and with making as little noise as possible I changed into a pair of jeans, a plain black v-cut top and pulled a hoodie over me before slipping on my shoes. I had just finished packing my luggage and making sure I had everything when I heard Colby stir and his soft snoring stop. I mentally prayed he'd go back to sleep but I wasn't that lucky. I made a beeline to the door but he looked over at me before I could go.Colby's/Seth's POV
As I was sleeping, I heard a lot of sound being made for awhile but I just slept through it figuring Brianna was trying to find something. However, as the sound of moving continued for what seemed like hours I finally awakened to see Brianna trying to leave." What are you doing Brianna!?" I said quickly getting out of bed and standing in front of the door."I need to go Colby." Brianna said calmly choosing not to look at me. She had her luggage in her hand.
"I don't know what I did to upset you but I'm sorry. Please, just sit down and we'll talk about it." I said pleading with her." Please, Brianna.."
She sighed as if she knew what she was going to say next would hurt me." I can't Colby, I can't keep pretending. I can't pretend like us is going to happen, it's not right to you. I'm not that type of person. I don't love you..the way you love me and I never will. I'm sorry."She said before pushing her way through me and out the door. I felt as if someone had shot me in the heart, I was stunned. I couldn't move, I felt as if someone knocked the wind out of me. I stood there staring out the door wanting to cry, a tear or two made its way down my face as the reality of what she said finally hit me. I slammed the door shut with all my strength before punching a whole in the wall, eventually I crumbled down onto the ground and just laid there, I laid there on the ground hating life, hating the world, hating love and for the first time in my life hating Brianna.
Brie's POV
I wandered the streets of the city not really knowing where to go. I couldn't call my sister because then she'd want an explanation. I couldn't call Roman nor Dean who were usually my go to people after Nicole because Seth was their "brother". I racked my mind realizing I was overthinking this whole thing, I need a break from everything. Without a second thought I hailed a taxi and began making my way to the airport. As the taxi began to move along, I pulled out my phone expecting to see messages from Colby however there wasn't any. I honestly didn't know rather to feel hurt or be glad he got the message. However, there was this little voice in the back of my head saying this is exactly what Colby wanted, he was just being nice to me because of what Daniel did and that he couldn't possibly love me. I realized the taxi had parked and the driver was trying to get my attention. "Madam, is everything alright?" He asked with genuine concern as my face was pale and I looked sick to my stomach. I faintly smile." Everything's great, sorry about that." I replied digging my wallet out of my luggage and handing him two hundred dollars which was about $80 more than I needed to pay. He looked shocked as quickly gathered my things and made my way inside the bustling airport. I made my way to the front desk and purchased a ticket back to my hometown of Arizona, after purchasing tickets to the next available flight which luckily for me was leaving in an hour, I made my way to the sitting area. I sat in a chair, pulling my hoodie over me hopping no one would notice me. As much as I loved my fans, I couldn't deal with people right now. For extra precautions, I took out a book and covered my face with at. To get my mind off things I attempted to actually read it, however, I failed miserably. I just stared at the words as if they were foreign to me till I heard my call being announced. I put my magazine away, gathered my things then walked over to board the plane.
"Hey aren't you Brie Be.." The person taking my ticket exclaimed excitedly as I cut her off before she could finish. I nodded hoping she'd get the message I didn't want to be bothered at the moment. Surprisingly, she nodded and took my ticket without another word. I mentally sighed in relief as I made my way to my seat. I sat in my seat which thankfully was a window seat, I don't know why but looking out the window of a plane always calmed me. As soon, as I was finally somewhat calming down, my worst nightmare happened. Someone sat in the seat beside me, not just anyone but Daniel himself. I looked at him with a face full of fright and shock as if how dare he have the balls to do this.Daniel however just smiled at me as if everything was normal." Well hello there Brianna, you look beautiful as always." He said,
