"Wow Lana, you're amazing" He laughs.

"We should duet sometime" He says as I walk over and sit next to him.

"You sing?" I say shocked.

"A little yeah" He shrugs.

My phone dings and I pick it up to see a message.

"You know the way you sang that song really brought out some sort of message.." Jack began to say as I continued to look at the text.

I laugh at what the message says.

"Yeah, I meant for it to have meaning" I say as I replied to the text message.

"Oh really?" Jack says.

"Yeah, it's actually the song I sang to-" I began to say as I turned back to Jack, whose face was inches from mine.

"Jack what are you doing" I say leaning back.

"W-what do you mean" He says also leaning back.

"Jack, look, I don't want you to get the wrong message" (I say message a lot in this chapter oops)

"What?"

"You didn't think that song was for you, did you?" I say raising my eyebrow.

"It wasn't?"

"Jack, as I was saying, it's the song I sang to Cameron, in hopes we would get back together, and we did"

"You're dating Cameron again?"

"Jack, you missed a lot when you were away"

"Yeah well it's not like I asked to be away" He spat.

"Why are you getting angry at me? You were fine just before, did I say something?"

"Why am I getting angry at you? You left me in a hospital for 2 months Lana!" He started to yell.

"You never called, you didn't visit, you didn't try and make sure I wasn't actually dead!"

"I thought you were over that!" I yell.

"You told me you were over that Jack" I said taking deep breaths.

"Yeah well maybe I wasn't" He scoffs.

"That's the thing Jack! You made me believe that you were! You made me think you were ok with what happened and for you to admit it, well I stopped feeling guilty."

"I stopped feeling guilty about what I caused" I added.

"But now I've come to realise that I was obviously wrong, and that you're a liar" I spat.

"Why? Why didn't you visit?" He sighed.

"I don't know Jack, I guess I was scared!"

"Scared of what Lana!" He yells.

"You! Scared of what you would think, say, do! I loved you Jack and I was the reason you were in hospital how was I supposed to feel!" I screamed at him.

"How were you supposed to feel? How was I supposed to feel? I had almost lost my life for the girl I loved only for her to leave me miserable in some hospital room!"

"What do you want from me Jack! What? Do you want me to say sorry for the 100th time? Jack if I could take back everything I would, but I can't" I say.

Tears had now fallen onto my cheeks and I could see his eyes beginning to water.

This must be hard for him.

A single tears falls onto his cheek and he looks down.

I walk up to him and tilt his head up, forcing him to look at me.

"Jack please don't cry"

"Jack I'm so sorry okay, I'm sorry I put you through so much pain, I'm sorry I made you so miserable. Please know that I'm so fucking sorry" I say wiping his tear off his cheek.

"I should go Lana" He says stepping back.

He turns and begins to walk towards the door.

"Jack-" I started to say but was cut off by my door slamming shut.

I sighed and sat onto my bed, looking down at the ground.

Almost instantly my door re-opens and my sister comes, sitting down next to me.

"Hey what the hell just happened?" She said wrapping her arms around me.

"One minute I hear you singing, the next I hear yelling and then the next Jack storms out the front door?" She says rubbing my back as I cry into her shoulder.

"It's nothing, Madison"

"That sure as hell was not 'nothing' Lana. I'm your sister, you can tell me"

"He's just upset okay, I don't want you to get involved"

"Are you upset?" She asks.

"At the moment yes, but i'll be fine"

"Don't worry about it Madison"
