Courtney's POV

Tears, sobbing, laughter, jokes filled the room. I was really surprised of how everyone took my decision and how happy and accepting they are. Except for one person, who hasn't said anything and was just sitting, looking at the floor.

I need to talk to him. But I can't.

"I need to get my phone and tell my sister something." I made an excuse for myself to get out of the room. I can't bare to see him, knowing what he did behind my back.

As I was leaving the room, Mari looked at me and knew exactly why I'm leaving. Not because of my sister, because of Shayne.

"I also need to go get something to drink. I'm really thirsty." she told everyone and left the office with me.

Noah's POV

How could Shayne be an idiot! First, he wouldn't let Courtney go and now he cheated on her!

Even though I am still disappointed at him, I decided to go and sit next to him. I know that almost everyone is giving a hard time due to what he did to Courtney and I know that he needs a friend right now, just like Courtney.

"Why did you do it?" I asked, without looking at him, as soon as everyone left.

He must know why everyone is ignoring him right?

"How did you know?" he was shocked after hearing my question. Guess he knows how stupid he is.

"Does it matter? Shayne, I thought you love her! Why did you do that?! Why did you hurt her?!" I didn't realize that I was already shouting.

"I... don't... know..." he muttered. I was kind of angry at him. I never thought that he would be that person. A rotten cheater.

"How did Courtney dumped Wahlid? What did Dee do to you? You're did the exact same thing of how both of you were treated and now you broke her heart again." I looked at him, and he is already in tears. I never really see him cry. It looks like he really regret his actions.

"I know and I am ashame of it! I hate myself for it. Even if I apologize to her, it will be too late. She's leaving."

I didn't know what to say next.

"Talk to her." I patted his back and left him on his own to think. That is what he needs right now, before talking to Courtney.

I walked to the office, where I know Courtney and Mari were talking. When I entered the room, I saw that Courtney's eyes were puffy and Mari has an sympathetic expression on.

"Hey Court, I think that Mari has already said what is needed to be said and I agree. You should talk to him."

Courtney kept looking back and forth between Mari and I, before she sighed and stood up.

"Where is he?" she asked while wiping the tears on her face.

"Still in the office." she came to me and hugged me. I hugged her back. She thanked me and went to find him. I sat next to Mari and we started talking what will probably happen.

"Do you think she will still leave? Do you think she will forgive him?" I asked Mari.

"Knowing Courtney, she might. But I am not sure about the second part."

We'll just have to wait.

Courtney's POV

As I make my way to the meeting room, I was biting my lower lip, to keep myself from crying.

I want to forgive him. I really do. But the image of him with that girl keeps popping in my head.

I reached the meeting room and entered the room. I immediately shut the door behind me. It was just me and him and I know that this conversation will not have a good conclusion.

None of us both said anything. I feel the tension in the room and I can't get myself to say anything. I feel a single tear running down my cheek as I watch him, sitting on the other side of the room.

"How was she?" I finally had the courage to say in front of him. He wasn't really paying attention to me until now. His face was drench with tears.

"Courtney, I -" he started but I interrupted him.

"I know what you're going to say. I have been through this so many times now."

I saw him just nod his head. He isn't even trying in arguing with me.

"You will say ' I'm sorry that I cheated on you. I didn't mean it. It didn't mean anything. I will never do it again.' I have been through this and I am so tired of this." I started sobbing again and this time, he was also crying.

"I am really sorry. I know that you won't forgive me. And I guess that you're still leaving. I guess that we're over and I will never have a chance with you again." he stood up and looked directly at my eyes.

I was really shocked. He didn't fight for what we have. He just gave up.

"I guess that it is over." I said while hugging myself and tugging my necklace.

I started crying even more and ran out of the room, going to the restroom. I got inside a cubicle and slammed it. I leaned against the walls and spent the whole time crying.

"I lost him!" I whispered - yelled.

"Courtney. You in there?" I heard Olivia's voice. I opened the door and ran to her for a hug. I rested my head on her shoulder.

"What happened?" she asked while soothing me. She kept rubbing my back.

"It's over!" I whispered.

I can't believe it. I lost Shayne.
