"You take that back right now Riley Matthews!"

I glare at Farkle. "Oh yeah, because using my full name is so going to make me take that back!"

He slams his fist into the wall hard enough to make a small dent and groans in frustration, making me jump off his bed and towards the door. "You have no right to tell me that I don't try hard enough in this relationship. I've loved you since day one!"

"You have a funny way of showing your love," I spit back while fighting my tears.

His blue eyes narrow to angry slits, something I've never seen before. He takes a deep breath and says, "You know what? If you really don't think that I show you that I love you, maybe we should just break up."

I stare at him in shock. This can't be happening. We've been together for three years and he wants to just throw it all away. As if everything we've worked for was for nothing.

I mean sure we've fought a lot these past few months, and over stupid things too, but that doesn't mean I don't care about him and love him.

I take a deep breath and shout, "Fine!"

His eyes grow big and round, maybe out of shock I'm not sure, and he screams, "Good."

I turn away before I start blubbering like a baby. I grab my bag and jacket and rush out of his room among sure to slam the door, even if that is a bit petty. I run down to the subway ad catch the next one that will take me home. Sitting there I realize what just happened and cry. I just let one of the best things that's ever happened to me get away.

The subway stops and I hurry off, trying to get home as quickly as possible. I run up the fire escape and through my window before my parents can realize I was gone. It is a school night after all. As soon as I get to my bed I see Farkle's hoodie laying there from last night.

I had to go home really late and I left my jacket at Topanga's. It was pretty windy and Farkle didn't want me to get sick, so he gave me his hoodie. He said I could give it back to him whenever I wanted. At the time it wouldn't have been a problem since we saw each other almost everyday. Now I'm not sure I'll have a way to get it back to him. Maya or Lucas will probably have to do it for me.

I pick it up and lay down in bed. I hold it close to my head and think long and hard. Maybe I shouldn't give it back to him. I really need something to link me to him, and for me that's this.

Laying down I keep it close and close my eyes. I try to ignore everything, but I know that it won't go away.

Instead of sleeping, I cry.

I lay on the floor staring at my ceiling since it's a planetarium. I find Pluto easily which makes me feel awful. I get up and throw anything I can get my hands on. I start off with the stuff on my desk, then I kick everything off my dresser, and lastly I chuck the picture frames on my wall across the room. I can't stand this. She's the love of my life and now she's gone.

How could I have been so stupid as to let her think I really don't care. I've been so scatter brained lately because graduation is just around the corner and I want to be ready for everything that comes after. I was so busy thinking about my future that I forgot about what's right in front of me.

My Riles.

My best friend.

My everything.

Gone because I was so stupid as to let myself fight with her. I lay in bed and just cry until I pass out from exhaustion.
