chloe's pov
"diego!" all i got in return was silence. i kept shouting his name because i needed to talk to him. i wasn't getting any reply. i was crying, i really needed someone to talk to. i found diego in his room with a gun pointed to his head.
"you fucking lied." he mumbled.
"what the hell are you doing?!" i cried. "put that down!!"
"you chose your ex over me. i found out that you had sex with him. the baby is mine, and you told him you didn't want to raise it with me. you wanna raise it with him."
"diego please put the gun down!"
"why should i? what difference would it make if i was gone?"
"STOP IT!"
"i cared so much about you."
"I SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU PULL THAT TRIGGER-"
the last thing i heard was a gunshot.
thats when i woke up in my bed. i have been getting nightmares ever since that talk with diego. i can't process it. i lied to him and he told me he thinks he loves me. was he serious about it, or was it complete bullshit? he was never good with feelings. he doesn't even understand his own. i shook my head . i saw diego packing some stuff.
"w- what are you doing?" i said while rubbing my eyes.
"i was gonna tell you.." he whispered.
"whats all this.."
"baby, we need some time apart. theres too much shit happening and we have been having too many fights. its not healthy."
"or you just don't trust me right now."
" its not like that. i really need a break."
"but i'm pregnant. haven't you thought of that?"
"yeah i know. i am packing your stuff, not mine. you can stay at katelyn's house."
"but still, you started packing my shit before i even agreed to this."
"it won't be a long break, just fucking agree to it! stop being so difficult !" none of us said anything.
"get out." i said.
"what?! you're kidding m-"
"i am not in the mood. get out so that i can think for once." then he mumbled something under his breath and shook his head. he left the room and slammed the door. i finally came to the conclusion that i agreed. i realized that he wasn't here anymore. so i texted him.

delivered 12:01 am
i drove over to ethan's because i had no where else to go. i pulled up to his driveway and i pressed the doorbell. i was waiting for a while. grayson opened the door.
"oh hey, gray. is ethan here? i'll try not to be here long.."
"he's upstairs in his room. come in."
i went upstairs to see ethan in his bed buried in the sheets. i knocked.
"what grayson." he said in his sleepy voice.
"its chloe.."
"oh. what are you doing here at 3 am?" he turned around and questioned.
"um.. i-" i whispered. suddenly a few tears went down my cheeks. thats when i broke down. he came up fast to comfort me. i hugged him and was crying continuously and he kept trying to calm me down. i told him everything that was happening. it was too much to handle at once. there was no other shoulder to cry on.
"its gonna be okay." he said.
"i'm tired of this fuck shit," i cried. "and also those messages that i showed you? he didn't bother to comfort me. i was all by myself for hours."
"i'm always here. just call me whenever."
"oh shit! i missed my appointment today."
"you don't have to worry about that. you can always reschedule. just relax for now. you can stay with me and grayson."
"thank you.." i said. "but why are you being so nice to me after i told you that I don't want you in my life anymore?"
"i don't know. but i can't believe that diego would do this to you. someone like you doesn't deserve that. i would've replied right away." when he said that i felt an off sensation. there was a weird feeling down in my stomach.
"thanks ethan"
