Elle

I leave a note on the counter for my mom to read, telling her I decided to live with Jacob and his aunt. I couldn't live here anymore in Jersey with all the drama, it was just too much. I grab my suitcases and look at my now non-decorative room. I would of course come visit, but I wanted to leave Jersey.

Grayson was against the idea of me living with Jacob. He was against it all. But, we aren't together anymore, so I don't have to listen to him. I had to hurry cause the plane leaves in 30 minutes

I made the decision real quick, on the same day actually because Jacob was leaving today anyways. Jacob's dad drives us to the airport and I get out, seeing that Grayson had followed us here.

"Grayson, you need to stop. If you really love me, you'll let me go. You'll let me be happy." His eyes get brimmed with tears and I look away, Jacob taking our suitcases. He goes through security and all that stuff while I deal with Grayson.

"Don't leave me. Elle, we can be together again. With Jacob gone there will be no more drama. We can be happy together. If you leave I will loose myself. I don't know what I will do, there is no other girl out there for me, you're the one I want." He takes my hands and I look up at him.

"We can't be together, you know we can't." He blinks and a tear slips from his eyes. "Why can't we?" I bite my lip and shake my head, "We are so bad for each other. We always make the wrong decisions when we are together. You also broke my heart, Grayson. I can't have you break it again."

"I won't. I love you so damn much, why can't you see that?" Tears are now spilling from my eyes, including Grayson's. "I do see that, and I love you too, but this is what is best for us."

A lady calls over the intercom saying our flight leaves in 10 minutes. "I have to go. Plane is leaving soon." I fake a smile and pull Grayson into a long hug. I can hear him crying and it breaks my heart to leave him, but its for the best.

I pull away and we lock eyes. I don't even have to think twice before I close the gap in between us. Sparks were flying everywhere, my stomach was filled with the butterflies. I'll miss him, but this is a chance for me to get over him.

I pull away and wipe away Grayson's tears. "I love you." I whisper and he cups my cheeks, "Then stay." I just stare at him, taking in all his features one last time. "Goodbye Grayson." I turn around and tears sting my eyes but I refuse to cry right now.

I want to turn around and run back into Grayson's arms, what he said did sound pretty nice. Getting back together and stuff, but Jacob was there for me when nobody else was.

Plus, I don't need anymore drama. Maybe leaving would give me a chance at an actual new start. I board the plane along with Jacob and before I know it, we are off to Utah.

Well that's the end, its been a ride. I know its a super short chapter, but I'm thinking about writing a sequel. Thanks for everything you guys, it really means a lot. I remember hitting 1k reads and I was shocked because this book is the actual definition of cringe and I would never read it tbh😂 But I just wanted to say something that I totally forgot to say a couple chapters ago. Suicide? Its not worth it. I can not tell you guys how many times I have thought about suicide, but in the end, it gets better. It may not seem like it will, but it will I promise. You are priceless and life is so fragile, don't end it short. So many people love you, including me. If any of you are having a hard time, my pms are always open. Ask questions about the book or me or whatever, idc😂 Thank you guys sm for 3k on the book it's crazy. Anyways, this is probably annoying you guys but comment questions, happy New years🎊🎆🖤
