(Kate's P.O.V)
Suddenly, it all made sense. This is why Emi hadn't been herself recently - she was finishing up her internship. How had I been so stupid as to think she'd just been nervous about being with me on the red carpet?! "Babe, I.." the words didn't make it out my mouth. In all honesty, I think I just didn't know what to say. What did she want to hear? "Please, let's talk about this tomorrow okay? I don't want to be responsible for ruining your night. Have fun baby" Emi kissed me on my forehead and walked away. I tried to shout after her but by this point, I was crying too and only a painful squeak came from my throat. I watched as she got into a taxi and drove away.

How had I done this to her!? I couldn't believe I'd let myself go on the most special night of her life. I was so stupid. I decided to go back to my apartment and sleep off the upset. As I opened my front door, my phone buzzed [Kate: I miss you already. I'm coming to yours]. I turned my phone off and didn't reply, hoping she'd realise I didn't wanna see her right now.

I tried my hardest to enjoy my night but when you don't have the person you care most about with you, you feel like half of you is missing. I decided to go to Emi's apartment. My night wasn't worth it without her.
*30 minutes later*I'd been trying to call Emi for 20 minutes and her phone was still off. I arrived at her apartment and knocked on her door, trying to be quiet but also needing to wake her. Eventually, she answered the door - puffy eyes, smudged make up and still in her dress. She immediately pulled me in for a hug. We both began to cry, neither of us believing this was happening.

"I don't want to break up with you baby" Kate began, between sniffles. "But this is gonna be hard, I know but we can get through it" she cupped my face in her hands. I tried to smile through my tears. "Maybe we could make it work, maybe we could move in together, you could get a job and I'll work on SNL and we'll be happy" Kate said. I stood still. I stopped crying immediately. "So, you want me to drop everything? To change my life and you continue living your perfect successful life?" I hissed. Kate's eyes widened and her mouth opened slightly. "No.. I just.. I.. Emi" she was shocked. She couldn't believe it. "My family, my life in London it's just nothing something I can leave behind forever. You're the love of my life Kate, but I don't know if I can do this..." my voice trailed off to sobbing again. Kate looked at me, silently shook her head and ran out of the door. I'd really really messed it up this time...
