It's Not Goodbye

Charles' P.O.V.

I woke up earlier on a Sunday morning to the sound of luggage being wheeled around. I shot up, only to see Alli packing up everything she owned. Tears welled up in my eyes as I watched her pack all her clothes, jewelry, presents, and all the stuff I bought for her. As she came around the corner, she saw me standing there. She told me, "Charles, I can't take this anymore , I can't take all the fighting and the constant arguments that we have. We both aren't happy with each other anymore and I think we both know what's best for both of us." I stood there in silence as the girl of my dreams told me that it would be best for us to go our separate ways. I told her, " Alli, please don't do this, you know I love you. I know we haven't been getting along lately but I can fix it and we can be happy." "Charles, this has gone too far for us to try and fix what is clearly broken. I love you but we can't go on like this. I'm sorry. Goodbye."

And just like that, she was gone. She packed all her stuff into her car and grabbed Chico and his leash. I heard the car start up and listened as she drove away. Now what am I going to do? I have to tell the CTFxC but how?

Alli's P.O.V.

I woke up early that day. I knew what I had to do to make us both happy. I loved Charles, but I hated seeing him unhappy and stressed. I began to pack up my clothes, jewelry, and anything I could fit into my suitcase. I was cleaning out my shoe-rack when I heard a ruffle of the sheets. There was Charles, standing in the doorway, tears welling up in his eye as he watched me fill up my suitcase. I told him, " Charles, we both aren't happy and we both are extremely stressed. I think it's best that we go our separate ways." He begged and pleaded me not to go but I had to ignore him before I changed my mind. I wheeled out the suitcase and called Chico. I grabbed his leash before saying goodbye to Zoey and Marley one last time. I put my suitcase and Chico in the backseat before starting the engine and leaving the house. I drove quite fast with tears burning in my eyes. I drove to my parents house, which was fairly close to Charles' and I's house. I turned the engine off and sat there in front of my parents house thinking. When Charles tells the CTFxC, what will they think of me? Will they still love me or will the hate me?
