Kian's POV

She ran out of the room. A part of me wanted to chase after her. Another part, the broken one, couldn't move. My stomach dropped entirely and my heart cracked in two. She hadn't picked up my heart, claiming it as her own. She threw it on the ground and left me alone. I watched her run. Through the window I saw as she ran away like it was the only thing that could keep her alive. While truly she didn't know, I was dying inside. My chest was tightening, my eyes a broken dam. The lump in my throat grew bigger, shuddered sobs cluttered the lonely room and took my breath away. My world was spinning, internally shattered.


Matthew's POV


I walked next to Dakota, her hand in mine. A warm, crazy, feeling corrupted my person. I was going to do it. I looked at her, "Dakota?"

She smiled at me, "Yea?"

My heart pounded out of my chest at the simple words she spoke, "Dakota, I'm in love with you. Every time you're around my heart beats out of my chest. I want to read every word you write, listen to every word you speak. You're the sunshine on my rainy days, my smile when I don't have one. I love you. I'm in love with you." My ears and heart listened intently as I awaited her response.

Dakota's POV

My heart dropped to my stomach. A lump set up shop in my throat, making me unable to speak the words I needed to speak. My heart was racing in NASCAR, too fast for me to bare. "Matthew oh my god," my eyes failed to keep the water inside. "I love you too."

Matthew's POV

"I love you too."

As she spoke those eternal words, I picked her up, overjoyed. I spun her around and planted a warm kiss on her strawberry lips, "Where to now?" I sat her on the ground, grabbing her hand again.

She looked at me, her face in deep thought. She was cutest when she was in deep thought, "To my place? I'm kinda tired." she giggled a bit.

That giggle was music to my ears, "Sure let's go." I led her to the car, opening her door before getting in myself. I started the car, hearing it purr and hum. I grabbed her hand and kissed it lightly.

Kota's POV

He grabbed my hand, my heart did backflips. Someone loved me.

Kian's POV

I sat here, hours have passed since Jade ran away. I thought she would be back by now. Her blue cardigan sweater was clutched in my hands. I hadn't moved an inch since she left. I thought I'd call somebody but then I remembered that nobody liked me. I had no one but myself. My phone vibrated against the bed sheets. The phone felt foreign in my hands from not touching it. It was a twitter mention quoted, "Serves you right for trying to screw your journalists."

It was Tyler. He had said that to me. I felt a feeling of regret. I regretted ever sleeping with any of my journalists. I called my secretary, telling her I'd be gone for a couple of days. Looking in the mirror, I didn't even recognize myself. My eyes were puffed out, my skin was a pale olive color, and my hair was spiked out from pulling it in anger.

Why am I so stupid? I balled my hands up into fists and slammed them against my head at an alarming rate. My head pounded and ached, but I didn't care. I ran downstairs and opened Jade's medicine cabinet. I grabbed the heart pills and the Benadryl. I took one of the heart pills and one of the Benadryl. I felt my legs go numb and my head start to spin. Shit I forgot to say goodbye to Jc. I called him but before I could hear him answer I fell to the ground. I heard the words, "Kian? Kian what's up?"

I replied, "I'm leaving, goodb-" My world went black before I could finish.
