*Bryan's POV*

I was at my cousin's party, trying to find a way to get my mind off of things. I was still kinda messed up because of what happened with Ava the other day. I just sat back in a corner of the room, trying not to draw any attention to myself. I don't even know why I came in the first place.

"Oh, hey! Bryan!", I turned to see my cousin's friend, Jerry, waving and walking over to me.

"Wassup?" I gave him a nod as he sat down near me.

"Not much. I just came here with my boy, Geoffrey-matter of fact where is he? Aye, Geoffrey!", Jerry yelled. "¡Ven aca!"

I was surprised to see a drunk Prince Royce stumble over. Best way to forget about Ava is to see her ex-boyfriend, isn't it?, I thought sarcastically.

"¿Qué tú quiere', Jerry?", He asked.

"Oh, I just wanted you to meet Bryan. He's my friends cousin."

"'Sup?", said Geoffrey, as if we were cool with each other. I was starting to wonder how much he drank tonight.

"I'm good.", I replied, trying to keep calm.

"Thas good.", he mumbled, nodding.

"So you two know each other?", Jerry asked.

"Kinda...", I said.

"Oh..", said Jerry, trailing off. We sat there for a few minutes, making awkward conversation through small talk until Jerry's phone rang.

"Ah, shit. Listen, I gotta take this.", He said up. "'Alo?"

After he walked away, things were even more awkward. We sat in silence for about five minutes until Geoffrey spoke up.

"How's Ava doin'?"

I was surprised he asked me that question buying answered him anyway. "Last time I checked she was alright but I ain't seen her in a few days."

"Oh...", he looked down, seeming disappointed.

I sighed. I couldn't believe I was about to do this... "listen, man, she misses you..."

He seemed to perk up a little. "Really? how do you know?"

"She's told me some things... plus I can just tell. You need to try taking to her again."

"You think so...?"

I nodded. "She hasn't been the same..."

He stood up. "Yeah... maybe I should go see her again...I miss 'er too much and I can't do this anymore.", He slurred. And before I could talk him into waiting until he was sober to go, he left. So much for a heart to heart, man to man conversation.

Jerry returned a few minutes later. "Hey, where'd Geoffrey go?"

I sighed. "He went to go win his girl back over.", I answered wistfully.

I realized if I really cared about Ava, I had to do what would make her happy... even if that meant that I wasn't in the picture. As much as it tore me apart to let her go, I had to do it.

*Avadele's POV*

"Alright, Lisa. Ill see you tomorrow.", I said to my boss as I took of my apron and gathered my stuff. I decided to go out from the back door.

"Oh, wassup Ava?", said a voice as I locked the door.

I didn't even have to turn around to know who it was. "Leave me alone, Mikey.", I said sternly.

"Oh, come on. Why you gotta be like that?"

I said nothing and kept on walking.

"Ava, come on now. What did I do wrong? it was just a slip of the fist..."

I was super mad but I almost wanted to laugh at how lightly he was taking all this. Did he not know he was partially responsible for screwing up my life? "just shut up.", I told him getting into my car.

He started yelling something but I didn't hear him and I rolled my windows up and drove away.

As soon as I got to Christina's, I cried. Thankfully, Christina was out of town and no one was her to bother me or console me. I just let all my tears flow out because everything that went down in these past few months had been too much on me and I finally cracked.

Even though I didn't want to see his face, I missed Geoffrey a little. If he was here he would've comforted me and told me everything was going to be fine. but of course he wasn't here because he couldn't keep his dick to himself.

I cried for about another hour until I fell asleep. I had barely woken back up when the doorbell rang.

I reluctantly went over to the door and opened it. Words can't describe the emotions and feeling I felt when I saw who it was.

"Geoffrey? What the hell are you doing back here?"
