ELLAS POV
~•~•~•~•~•~•
I sat in the plane tears still streaming down my face. I couldn't stop thinking about joey, he had every right to be mad at me. I have been so busy these last few weeks, I didn't talk to him.  much. He was so excited to see me, why did I have to answer that bloody phone call. I didn't blame joey for being mad at me. I just wished it didn't have to resort to this. It all happened so fast, I deserved it, I didn't deserve joey, and he deserves someone a million times better than me.
I watched out the window of the plane, we took off "Why was I running away?" I sighed "I'm so stupid".

JOEYS POV

The next day
I lay on my bed. I hated myself, I had just let go of the best thing that has ever happened to me. I just couldn't keep my feelings to myself.
I looked at my phone, I could call her, she wouldn't want to talk to me though.  She hates me, I hated me. What was wrong with me.

I lifted my phone and went through my images, there were tons of Ella and I. I couldn't help myself, I burst into tears throwing my phone across the room. I had never regretted anything so much in my life.

I heard my phone buzz and quickly ran over, I picked it up realising the whole screen was completely smashed.
"No no no!" I said pressing the button. The screen remained black. Now if Ella called me what was i meant to do.

ELLAS POV
~•~•~•~•~•~•
I had to go into the studio the next day. I tried to put on a smile and look excited for my new job but I honestly just wanted to crawl into bed and eat ice cream.
I walked in to the building and reception, I was told to go up to a meeting room. I went inside and there was a large table with people sitting all around it. I only recognised Nate and Tom who were sitting at the top of the table.
"Come here" Nate said pointing to the seat beside him. "Its good to see you" he mouthed as I sat beside him.
"So everyone this is Ella, she will be voicing Alaska on the show" Tom said Introducing me to the table.
"Ella this is Leo, Mark, Jenny and Karla, they are voicing other characters. Down there is Callum, Shane, Mitchell and Kerri they are the head animators and this man beside me is Charlie who is my co-producer".
"Hello everyone" I said shyly.
The rest of the meeting went on, I was barely listening,  I couldn't pay attention to anything that was going on around me. I didn't want to be here anymore, this job is the reason Joey and I broke up. I hated it.

At the end of the meeting everyone stood up around me. I hastily stood up and was one of the last to leave the room.  As soon as I stepped outside Nate pulled me to the side.
"Hey Ella are you okay?  You barely said a thing in there, and I've never seen someone as bored in my life" He said concerned.
"No.. I mean just... uh.." I said hesitantly.
"What's wrong" he asked putting his hand on my shoulder.
"I just have some things on my mind, I can't concentrate".
"You can tell me you know" he said. "I'm here for you".
I didn't really know Nate all that well, but he was my only friend over here. And right now I just really needed someone to talk to.
"Nate I just don't know I've just screwed everything over" I said beginning to cry.
"Oh here" he said taking my hand and leading me into an empty office.
"Don't cry" he said as we sat down.
"I'm so sorry I just can't help myself. I just- I just really messed things up" I cried fanning my eyes.
"Its okay it's okay, just tell me what happened".
"Well the last three weeks have just been crazy with trying to organise me moving over here and getting calls and everything it's just been so stressful! And then my flight to michegan was cancelled and I had to get a later flight and I only arrived an hour before the show started and as soon as it started I got a call saying I had to go to California today and I spent the whole of the first act on the phone and when I sat down for act two I was on the phone for another hour. And then went backstage to congratulate Joey and he totally flipped and we had an argument and we broke up" I said crying even more heavily.
"Oh Ella" Nate said putting his arms around me.
"I just miss him" I cried.
"Its okay, it's okay" he said patting my back "Joey doesn't know what he just let go of, I promise you that he's sitting in his bed right now crying his eyes out. He is probably full of regrets".
"I just wish it didn't have to end so badly" I sobbed.
