"No! You can't keep letting her do this to you!" I was completely done. Taylor was ruining everything and he knows it.

"You're blowing this way out of proportion Ariana!" 

Everyone in the room and exchanged looks. They all got up and walked into the kitchen. 

"This is what she does. She tries to demolish my reputation. I won't let it go too far." He didn't seem to care and that made the situation overwhelming.

"And that's not far?!" I could feel my face turning red. 

"You need to chill Ariana! It's my career not yours!"

Of fucking course it's not my career.

"I never said it was Justin!" I pushed him aside and walked to the door. 

"Ari." He tried soothing me, but he was only making matters worst.

"You can't always be in control Justin." I said through my teeth, still facing the door.

"Where are you gonna go Ari? Back to your abusive boyfriend? Back to your boring life? You wanna fucking go? Then go!" Justin shouted in rage. 

His words were like venom.

He reached over on the coffee table and grabbed his wallet.

He stomped over to me and turned me around. Justin stared at me while biting his lip. I didn't bother to stare back.

He picked up my wrist and slapped a wad of money inside of my palm.

I stood and stared at all the hundred dollar bills stuck inside of my hand.

"That's for your plane ticket." Justin said turning around and walking back to sofa. 

I went on this trip to get to know Justin better... and I did, but if I could take back this experience, I would.

My heart was falling into pieces. I was tired of getting hurt. Exhausted.

I save you from almost dying and you don't care.. Typical.

I regret putting my life on the line. I regret sticking up for you. I regret being here. I regret this relationship. I regret you...

I picked up my head and turned towards the door. 

I had to make a decision... Stay or leave? 

What was I even thinking? His intentions weren't clear... and I came to a conclusion.

I twisted the door knob. 

"If you walk out of that door, I'll really know how you felt."

I pushed the door opened and stepped out on the porch. No tears. 

Maybe this is what's best. Maybe Justin got what he wanted.

"Love makes you do crazy things."

Taylor's words rang in my head.

I convinced myself that this was the best decision for me.

No more drama. No more Taylor. No more Justin.





YES this is the END :)

I'm currently debating on if I should do a sequel. Let me know if you think this is a good idea!
