Nate's POV

"Aaron? What are you doing here". Aaron Carpenter sat in my couch, Gus legs crossed and a glass or ice water in his hand.
"Yo man!" he set his water down and walked over to me, pulling me into a hug. "I just stopped by. I just moved to LA and i figured why not. Where's the rest of the infamous Omaha crew?" i shrugged my shoulder. I haven't seen them since the party.
"I dont know, we dont live together anymore. So, what made you move to LA? I thought everything was good back home" we sat down as i lit a joint.

"Good to see you're the same old Nate". He lightly chuckled as i blew smokes out in rings. "Anyway. I just came to focus on my music. You know, just tryna do something with my life, just like you". I smiled at the last part. Music is all i ever as wanted to do. I've been i. The studio a couple time and some of my song were actually a big hit. "But that's not the only reason". He smiled real big and i just kept on smokin.

"There's this girl". I wiggled my eye brows, you know, that cute shit your friends does when your crush walks by. Its low-key annoying as shit but..

"So this girl does she have a name?" he nodded, rubbing his hands together all nervous like.
"Yea. Jordyn". I instantly choked on the smoking in my mouth as he caught my attention.
"Wait, Jordyn Leigh?" he nodded.
"You know her". I lit another blunt, pretending to not be bothered.

"Nope".

Seconds later, the door bell rung.
"You gonna get that?" i nodded and got up reaching for the handle. I opened it to see the one and only, Jordyn.

"Jordyn! Hey!" Aaron rushed up to her and wrapped her in his arms. The blood seemed to drain from her face, she was pale as my mama's legs.
Aaron let go of her and took a step back. "Oh so you do know her". I shrugged my shoulders.

"I thought i did". Aaron dropped the topic and walked out the door.
"It was good seeing you Nate. We should hang sometime". I nodded as he walked down the hallway of my apartment building to the lobby.

Jordyn stood there, speechless.
"Nate, i ca-"
"You know what, Jordyn. Dont even speak to me right now. Because i really dont want to know". She shut her mouth and her eyes started to water.
"Nate if you would just list-"
"Don't you get it! I dont want to listen, Jordyn! I dont want to hear any of your excuses! You lied to me. I thought you were different. You lead me on this entire time, not to mention Wyatt, when you knew Aaron was coming to LA for you. So that you two could be together!"

"Nate, what are you talking about!?"
"Dont play dumb with me Jordyn. Aaron told me all about you guys.  All that shit". She looked at me confused, but i wasn't gonna play her shitty game. "He loves you! And you're just gonna run around California fucking everyone. Well at least everyone but me! Im dont with your bullshit, happy fucking life. Loose all contact with me and dont bother coming around here ever again". Then, i did the hardest thing yet. I slammed the door in the face of the second girl i had ever loved.

I still love her. But she just loves the drama.

Jordyn's POV

He slammed the door in my face. The one guy i had ever loved slammed the door in my face and told me to get lost. I still love him, but he just loves to fuck.

I stormed away, wiping my tears full of pain. I ran through the lobby and out to the parking lot where Aaron sat in his car.
I could feel him smirking at my pain. He loved to see me hurt.

"What the hell did you tell him, Aaron". I gritted the words through my teeth, trying to seem stronger than i was.
"Well hello to you too, princess". I flinched and he wove his fingers through my hair.
"Don't. Call. Me. That". He had a fake look of pity on his face, which only faded to a smirk.
"What, he can only call you that". I remained silent, remembering the same conversation playing through. His smile quickly turned to a cold hearted stare.
"Get in the car, Princess". I made my way over to the passengers side of his truck and got in, knowing to obey his orders. I slipped into the leather seat and and buckled my seat belt, feeling his eyes on my the entire time.

The first few minutes of the drive were silent. Engines roared around us but everything was still silent.
"Jordyn". I sat quiet, looking out the window. The car came to a halt, cars honked but he didn't care.
"Jordyn". He grabbed my jaw and whipped my head towards him. A tear slid down my face and he let go, realising what he just did. "Jordyn. I really do care about you". He continued driving, sighing as not one one came out of my mouth.

He parked in the empty lot of an abandoned building. It was a storage unit. But it shut down when the one Nate works at was built. Everyone wanted to got there.
"Jordyn". Aaron murmured my name softly and i turned my head. "Jordyn, you are a very special- and important- woman".

"Bull. Shit". He looked at his laugh, laughing a little. I've never seen him like this. Usually he's either ripping my cloths off or demanding me to take them off. He usually so ruff, and violent. But this was different.
"Whatever, Jordyn. I guess since everything went down, we cant ever have a normal conversation ever again". He sigh, disappointed. He started the car and drove me home.

"Dont forget. Tomorrow, 9 p.m.". O nodded as Aaron sped off. I stood in my drive way. Finally alone. I ran my fingers through my hair, walking inside.

"So, its true". I walked in to see Wyatt and Nate sitting there. Nate with a blank expression on his face, almost numb. And Wyatt with red, droopy eyes. He was crying.
"What are you talking about Wyatt?"

"You know damn well what im talking about, Jordyn". Wyatt now stood closer to me, he voice cracking.
I look over at Nate, who still sat there, quiet.
"Wyatt, whatever he told you was wro-"
"Bullshit Jordyn. I knew, just knew you were too good to be true. I finally found a girl who was perfect in every way, and just as fucked up as me. I knew i shouldn't have let you get close to me, and now i know why too. Because i felt something for you, Jordyn. But now you fucked up, not me. You.  I just couldn't be the only one, could i?" he stormed out.

"Wyatt!" i screamed his name, sobbing harder and harder. But he didn't once turn back.
Once he was out of sight, i sat down on my floor, my knees up to my chest. I rocked back and forth, not caring what Nate thought of me.

"Jordyn, i didnt think he would-".

"Save it Nate. I dont care anymore. Just walk out of that door just like everyone else who has claimed to care about me". He stood silent, still not moving. "Oh yea, and thanks for ruining my life with a lie you knew nothing about". My words made me sob even harder. I ran upstairs and slammed the door of my parents room.

You know that feeling when you're slowly loosing everyone and everything you have a reason for living for? So the. You have no reason to live, or carry on.

Well, story of my life!
