Caitlin punches me straight in the face, extremely hard, and I touch it. However, the pain of my heart hurts more than her punch.

I watch the tears flow down her face. I so badly want to wipe them away and tell her I'm sorry; that everything is okay and that Paige was just... A thing, but a part of me tells me not to.

I watch as she walks out the door. I so badly want to tell her and reach out to her, but why can't I?

I want to hold her in my arms for eternity and tell her how much I have fallen in love with her, but I can't. Why?

I watch as she walks straight into Vikk's arms and the two walk off, hand in hand. Something in my heart breaks into two and I sadly watch as the two walk away.
----------------------------------------
A day later, I lay back on my bed, Paige next to me. I'm such an idiot. I was drunk one time after I just met Caitlin. I remember the day clearly.

I walk into the club, confused with everything. I walk into the bar and see a girl sitting by herself, lonely. I sit next to her and order a beer, and we talk for a while.

I finally learn her name after a beer or two, Paige. We kept talking, drinking, and learning more about each other. We found out that we have common interests and beliefs.

Her boyfriend, Mat, left her. Rob left me.

Eventually, we both drank until we couldn't see clearly, but we both managed to latch on to each other.

And then we went to a spare room...

And after that some... Stuff... Happened...

And now Paige won't leave me alone. Saying stuff about how we are 'fated' and such, and she just won't give up.

Even when I told her I had Caitlin; that I was so deeply in love with her that I refused to see Paige.

Caitlin probably saw all the messages that Paige and I had... I tried to respond with short texts so she would leave me alone, but...

I'm such an idiot!!

And somehow Paige found my address and she said that it would be the last time. I felt extremely guilty and Caitlin was just outside the door.

But, I guess she has Vikk now...

I sigh, staring up at the ceiling.

"Tell me everything." Paige says, and I do. I let all my emotions out and tell her everything that has been on my mind for the past few weeks.

"And I don't know what to do." I conclude.

"Well... That's a lot to take in. I didn't know that I was so... Annoying. I'm sorry." She says, and I just nod.

We both stay silent for a while, and she grabs my hand. There is warmth, but no spark.

"You should do what you think is best, but know that I am here. I will always be here by your side, no matter what. I won't give up on you or your dreams." She says.

Caitlin has Vikk... You have Paige now. My mind says.

But my heart says different.

I sigh, thinking. "I-I-I.. I have you, I guess that is enough." I reply, and I feel like a million needles have pierced my chest as those were not the words I wanted to say.

"You do have me. I'm thankful that you feel the same way." She says, squeezing my hand and rolling onto her side to kiss my forehead.
