Callie POV

Brandon- you got into Julliard?

I didn't answer, the room fell silent. Brandon didn't say anymore just walked out of the room into the backyard. I followed him outside.

Callie- Brandon wait!

he spun around, anger boiling in his face

Brandon- why didn't you tell me!

Callie- I.. I

Brandon- how could you not tell me you got into Julliard!

Callie- I just.. didn't want to make you feel bad, I know how much you wanted to go there and..

Brandon- you don't have to protect me like that!

Callie- It didn't matter anyways because I'm not going

Brandon- yes you are, you have to!

Callie- no I don't!

Brandon- its Julliard.. you can't pass up an opportunity like that

Callie- well I am

Brandon- Callie!

Callie- we agreed not to go to any colleges be both didn't get into

Brandon- yeah, but everything's different now

Callie- how is it different!

Brandon- because you got in and I didn't!

Callie- well its not your decision its mine and I'm not going without you

Brandon- I'm not gonna hold you back!

Callie- your not holding me back! 

Brandon- the only reason your not going is because of me so.. were done!

Callie- what do you mean were done!

Brandon- I'm breaking up with you

Callie- no your not!

Brandon- yes I am

Brandon turned and started storming away from me

Callie- you can't get rid of me that easily!

Brandon POV

It was a few days later, me and Callie hadn't spoken. she would be leaving for Julliard today, things shouldn't end like this but I couldn't bring myself to go talk to her. I saw my keyboard across the room, I wanted to shatter it to pieces. I went over and gave it a kick.

Stef- I don't think you want to do that

Brandon- yes I do

Stef- come on sit down, we need to talk

Brandon- I don't want to talk

Stef- okay then I'll talk, you just listen

Brandon- fine

Stef- I'm sorry you didn't get into Julliard, I know that has been you dream for a long time. but you know it is their lose..

Brandon- mom..

Stef- you are so incredibly talented, if they don't see that..

Brandon- just stop

Stef- so.. I ran into Callie yesterday, she said you were pretty mad at her

Brandon- she lied to me

Stef- is that what your really upset about

Brandon- yeah

Stef- your not upset she got in and you didn't

Brandon- no I..

Stef- Brandon

Brandon- I have been playing for eight years and she picks a guitar up a few months ago and is already better than me!

Stef- she's not better, your both talented its just different instruments

Brandon- I hate saying that, I should be happy for her

Stef- its okay to feel angry and jealous, but its not really fair to take it out on her when she didn't make the decision Julliard did

Brandon- yeah, your right.. oh my God I have to stop her before she leaves
