You storm out of your Los Angeles home , get into your car and pull out of the driveway . You look back and see your newly ex-wife Audrey Jensen running towards the car yelling at you .

" IM SORRY Y/N , PLEASE DONT LEAVE ME !! YOU ARE ALL I HAVE !! "

I stop the car and I get out and walk towards Audrey . She's sobbing , tears are running down her face like waterfalls . She is so distruat , but she made this horrible mess on her own .

" Dont EVER say I am all you have , YOU WOULDNT HAVE SLEPT WITH THAT , " I compose myself so I wont start crying . " You wouldnt have slept with that girl who is still laying in OUR BED . Im done with you Audrey , I let the first girl slide because I was "in love" with you . You made me fall for your dumbass pick up lines , your flirting , you . "

Audrey looks shocked . She tries to reach for my hand but I pull away from her . I was done with her games .

I was hanging out with Noah and Brooke at a coffee shop . We're talking about how Brooke is dating this European salesman and Noah is still doing his podcasts about Lakewood . After highschool the only people I really kept in touch with is Brooke , Noah , and Emma .

As Noah is talking , he stops . His pupils widen . Brooke and I look over towards the door and its Audrey , she is with another girl . The girl she cheated on me with . Audrey's head is in the crook of her neck , laughing . So happy .

This girl is very tall compared to Audrey , she's a brunette . Dresses very girly compared to me . I always dressed kinda "tumblr" I guess you can say . This girl is gorgeous . I never seen her face when she was laying in the bed I paid for . She looked down when I walked in .

" Do you wanna go ? Audrey is staring at you very intensly Y/N . If you're not comfortable , we can -- " Noah is cut off by the person who is walking towards our seats .

" Um hey guys , Noah , Brooke , Y/N . How are all of you guys doing ? " Audrey asks nervously .

" Audrey can you leave please , Y/N isnt comfortable , clearly . Just go and stop trying to come back into our lives . " Noah says so rudely but truthfully .

She looks stunned and hurt , but it dosent matter to me anymore . Her girlfriend comes over .

" Babe , who are these lovely people ? " she asks .

" This is Noah my old best friend , Brooke an old friend , and Y/N , my ... my ex-wife . " She recognizes me from the horrible summer day . Her black eyes are staring into like my soul or something .

" Excuse me but what are you staring at ? " I just had to ask . She's being a pest .

" I just cant believe you are Audrey's ex-wife . You're so pale , no makeup , very gloom look on your face . I remember the look on your face when you seen Audrey kissing on my naked , tan -- "

I take out my anger for these last 3 depressing months on her caked up face . She falls to the floor . Brooke and Noah get my stuff and we walk out into the cold , Autum air . My body is hot , Im sweaty , it drips from my forehead . I look back into the coffee shop and Audrey is aiding her girlfriend . I see her nose is broken , its bent into it looks like 3 different ways .

Audrey catches my eyes , she dosent look mad or angry . She looks relieved . I cant believe that bitch of her girlfriend tried to talk shit about my apperance . I cant believe it .

A couple days later after the coffee shop incident , I got a call from Audrey asking to meet up at a diner . I agreed , sadly . I wanted to say no so bad but I needed to apologize about her toy . I wonder if she is gunna have to get a nose job .

Oh well .

I arrive at the diner . I sit in my car for awhile , thinking of what Im going to say to Audrey . I still love her , but she's moved on . I shouldve when I had the chance , but I couldnt . She treated me so well , she was my rock .

I wasnt her rock , clearly . She had to sneak around and have sex with another girl to keep her sanity .

Was she even happy with me ? Did I mean anything to her ? I was never anything to her . I was just someone to wash her clothes , to cook her food .

Audrey is walking towards my car and tears are streaming down my face . I wipe them and smile at her .

We are sitting at a secluded booth at the back of the diner .

" How are you Audrey ? "

" I have been better , I broke up with Selene ."

I give her a very confused look . I think she's talking about the girl she cheated on me with . I never asked what her name was , ever . I always referred to her as a snotty bitch or cake face .

Noah always laughed when I called her cake face cause he said he had seen them at the store and when she kissed Audrey's cheek , her foundation rubbed off on her .

" Oh , I guess thats good for you . "

" Y/N , I guess im chasing pavements right now , I still love you ! You are still my everything . I made a mistake and I apologized so many times . I dont get it Y/N ? Do you still love me ? "

" I do Audrey , and that was your second mistake . Remember that other girl . Was I ever anything to you ? Was I just someone who took care of you ? We never had sex like you did with those two other girls . I was alone in the marrige , you didnt show me affection and when I tried you were either too tired , or you were not in the mood too . I was giving my all and you didnt give anything . I was like a stray dog you just looked at everyday and never helped . ALL I WANTED WAS YOU AUDREY . Thats all I wanted , but you never wanted me . " By now I was crying , on the verge of probably having a panik attack .

" Y/N , I .. I never relised you felt like that . Now that I know , I want to fix this . "

Wait . What the actual fuck . Does she really think she can fix "this" . Who is she , this isnt the Audrey I fucking remeber .

I roll my eyes at that stupid comment . I pull out my wallet throw a 5 dollar bill onto the table and I start walking out .

" If you really think you can fix this , then you are the most ignorant person I know . What happened to the Audrey Jensen I married ? She dissapeared . I miss her . I hate this " new and improved " Audrey Jensen 2.0 . Come back when you find the old one . She wasnt so concited or as ignorant as you are . "

I walk to my car and Audrey manages to tug at my arm and make me stop .

" Im here , right now trying to fix this Y/N . Stop pushing me away ! I miss waking up to your blue eyes every morning , I miss playing with your long brown hair . I miss going to thr grocery store and acting like total fools with you . This is the Audrey Jensen you are looking for and Im right here . I love you . " She conveyed .

I looked at her . she precieved herself as the old Audrey I fell in love with in highschool . The girl who was there for me when my best friend was killed by that masked psycho . I cried on her shoulder day and night .

" How do I know you're not lying ? You need to earn my trust before you would like to fix "this" . I need to go Audrey . "

I drove off feeling like shit . Hopefully she comes back around and realise that she is hurting so many people . Not only me but Noah , Emma , Brooke , even Zoe .

Like she said , we are both chasing pavements .
