Kodaline - All I Want (preferably Hunter Plake's version)
Reece's P.O.V.:
"I'm sorry." She said as she bowed her head from me.

Those two words knew that it is the end of us. I did nothing wrong between us, how did she come up to a conclusion like this?

"Why?" I asked desperately. This bright night just turn into a nightmare for me. The atmosphere is so cold.

I rested my body from my car as she stand there, looking guilty. The grocery store in front of us seems very crowded and noisy at the outside, yet the parking lot is very quiet.

"I-i just feel like.... it's not working." She stuttered, trying to find the right words. She still kept her head down, not wanting to having eye contact with me.

"What's not working? Tell me. I'm willing to do anything for our relationship." I said as I pulled her face up. Tears started brimming in her eyes, yet she still avoided eye contact.

"Please tell me first that you won't get angry with what I'm going to say." She finally looked at me as she held my hand. My breathing hitched and became shorter and shorter.

"Promise." I said as I wiped the tears away from her cheeks. Her mascara was running down, and her eyes was bloodshot.

"We-" She said, her voice shivering.

"We're moving out." She finally let it out. That's when I felt my eyes tearing up. I somehow wish it wasn't that far.

"That's good.... For your family. But where?" I asked. She took a really deep breath which made me nervous.

"Nashville, Tennessee."

I can now agree that two words can break my heart. Nashville Tennessee, that's like far from here.

That's when I realized. We won't be able to see each other again. We can only call, text, or FaceTime each other. She would be very busy with her band and so do I. We would have less time having some hang outs or dates. I won't be able to touch her beautiful face and kiss her kissable lips. She'll not be by my side when we sleep.

She will forget me.

I remained speechless for minutes. I can't believe how happily we were a while ago, and now, the only thing we can do is cry.

Cry. One thing I would do when she leaves.

"I-i can't take it." I said as I cried harder. My heart became heavier, and my throat became more worse.

"I have to go." She said as she went in the car with her sister, Christina. She mouthed me a "sorry" and drove past my car. I placed my hands at my head.

What the heck happened?

Now knowing that she "broke" up with me, I don't know what to do. She was my inspiration. My inspiration to wake up early in the morning just to greet her. My inspiration to write meaningful songs.

My inspiration to learn how to love.

But now, I felt empty.

Lord, give me a reason to move on.
