Paulina (Paul Wesley&Nina Dobrev): Unbreakable

Chapter 2: Breakup Blues

Chapter 2

Ian's Point of View:

I wasn't looking forward to going to work today. I texted Nina last night, and she never replied. How am I supposed to go and act like everything is fine? I love her more than anything, and why do I still not understand why we are over? Because she never told me. This giant pit in my stomach is taking over me. I can't live not knowing why this happened. I flipped my eggs, remembering that I didn't have to make breakfast for two.

As I sit down onto my couch, I turn on the TV. It's odd not sitting next to her every morning... Sitting here alone made me realize that I won't give up without a fight. I will fight for her and I am going to make her love me again. I sprinted to my car not even caring, realizing that everything in my house was on.

"Take a deep breath" I kept reminding myself. It's not that hard to just ring a doorbell. I knew I could, but I couldn't. I pull down my v-neck shirt, trying to look a little more presentable. As my pointer finger touched the doorbell, I had no regrets. Instantly, she answered, and opened the door. My heart skipped a beat seeing her face.

"Hey, umm, I know this is unexpected and quite rude but, can we please talk? Just for a few minutes...."

I gulped as she stepped to the side, letting me come in. This is my chance to win her back, and if not, to find out why she gave up on us when no one else did.

Nina's Point of View:

This was so uncomfortable. What was I supposed to say? How can you tell someone that you don't know why you ended a relationship? It didn't help that he looked hot as usual. I could tell in his eyes he was broken, and he clearly hasn't shaved in a week.

10 minutes later...

"Sit down, please" I tell him.

"So what did you want to talk about..?" I ask awkwardly. It is obvious I know what it's going to be about.

"I need to know why we ended. It's like you gave up. We were doing amazing.. I just need to know what I did, Nina" Ian said.

I gulped, and tucked my hair behind my ears.

"I feel like we weren't going anywhere, Ian. After four years we are still stuck. I don't know what I want, but I do love you. I don't have just one answer. I don't have an answer that will make you feel better." I said.

I got concerned after looking at Ian, he seemed like he was about to scream.

Ian lifted his head up and stared into my eyes.

"Nina, I was going to ask you to marry me the night that you broke up with me. It was going somewhere. I wanted you to be with me, and we could grow old together. That is how much I love you. Even if you had a real reason to break up with me, it would not make me feel any better, whatsoever. Nothing will."

My heart dropped. So did my mouth. My eyes watered.
"What the hell did I do?" I thought to myself.

"How do I reply?!" I thought.

As I lifted my head, and cleared my throat, no one was there. He was gone, his car was gone.

I left the love of my life. I was so uneasy. I think I might throw up. Ian loves me, and I love him. That is that. What are you waiting for? Go get him, tell him you love him. Tell him you want to grow old with him.

Something inside was holding me back. And it is time I let It go. I promised myself later on I will call him, and ask to meet again. I don't know how this will end, but I need to find out.

Ian's Point of View:
(20 minutes later)

I don't know what to think. My mind is empty. I shouldn't of told her.

As I pull into my driveway, my eyes flamed with tears. It was burning. Everything.

I left my stove on. Shit. I froze, not comprehending that my car was surrounded by flame.

And soon I was too.
