I stared at caleb with my jaw slightly slack. What was I supposed reply with?

"Fighter, I've had enough of whatever is going on. I've lost my patience. I don't know what you want so I'm going to need you to tell me now. Is there an 'us' or is that little bit of hope I have left in me going to vanish?"

I gazed at him wide eyed and swallowed the lump that had formed in my throat. I felt so much pressure in that very moment, having no idea about what to say. I closed my eyes tightly before turning around and walking away, leaving his unanswered question hanging in the air.

Caleb's POV

I watched her walk away. I felt a huge part of me die away, knowing that she gave up. It stung. Badly. She walked away with ease. Like she didn't care about the situation. Like she didn't care about how desperate and needing I was for her. Like she didn't even love me.

My heart ached to the point where it started hurting. I squeezed my eyes shut and dusted my top in my hand. It was like someone was physically hurting me. I opened my eyes and gazed through the crowd where Alex walked through.

I hate that I love her, all she made me feel was pain and I despised it. Fuck! I loved her too much to care.

I slammed my foot down on the break when it hit the red light. I heaved out a sigh and turned the radio on to brighten up the killing silence.

I hate you, I love you,
I hate that I love you,
Don't want to, but I can't put,
Nobody else, above you.

I sneered at the lyrics and changed the song.

Only need the light when it's burning low,
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow,
Only know you love her when you let her go,

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low,
Only hate the road when you're missing home,
Only know you love her when you let her go,

And you let her go...

I gritted my teeth together and turned the radio off. What's up with all these fucking songs?

When you're happy you enjoy the music and when you're sad, you understand the lyrics.

I sighed, feeling my emotions vanish into nothingness. I pulled up and parked into my driveway.

Alex's POV

Laying down on my bed, I stared up at the ceiling, recalling today's events. I didn't even want to know what was going through Caleb's head.

I regretted not giving him an answer but what could I say? Images of him and Selena in bed together flashed into my head and I cringed, rolling over onto my right side.

Did he even love me? Did he ever love me? I closed my eyes, hoping someone or something could give me an answer. But like the previous hours of endless amount of hoping for answers, I received nothing.

I awoke to the sound of my phone ringing- earning a loud, disappointed groan out of me as I reached underneath my pillow and sought out my phone.

"Hello." I grumbled after reluctantly answering- rubbing my eyes with my free hand as I did so.

"Alex! tu pequaño mierda [you little shit] have you forgotten your brother!" Zach's voice boomed through the tiny speakers as I groaned again.
