Ally's POV

I wake up to the door slamming shut downstairs, I sit up and grab my robe quickly and take the book off my nightstand. I throw the robe around me and tie a loose knot, before stalking towards the door.

"Who's there?" I yell at the top of the stairs.

"It's just me, I'm grabbing my camera stuff and leaving!" I hear Joe yell back at me.

I really don't want to face him but I know that I have to talk to him about me moving out. Before I decide to actually go downstairs I hear his footsteps coming up the stairs.

"If you don't mind I'd like to grab a change of clothes too" Joe comes around the corner and I have to hold back my tears. I hate how emotional I am but I've spent the last six months of my life being in love with him and those feelings can't just fade within a couple days.

"I'm leaving today so I don't care what you do," I tell him, my voice shaky.

"Leaving? Where?" Joe asks

"I'm getting on a plane and going to North America"

"What? You're overreacting. Just because we broke up doesn't mean you should leave the country!"

"I'm not overreacting. I've wanted to do it for years."

"Whatever" Joe scoffs and walks into our bedroom.

"You have no damn reason to be mad! You were the one that cheated on me!" I yell.

"I know what I did but I care about you that's why I told you what I was doing! I won't be able to protect you if you move that far away!" Joe yells back angrily grabbing clothes out of the closet.

"I don't need you to protect me!"

"You do! You're so helpless! I've had to save you and protect you from him for so long and you're still in love with that jerk even after all that he's done to you!" Joe screams.

"I don't love him!" I feel tears start to run down my face.

"You do! You love him! We've been dating for six months and you still keep some of the stupid things he gave you! You still zone out and think about him all the time! You don't love me. I'm only a distraction to you! You used me to try to get your mind off of the idiot you fell in love with!" Joe punches the wall and I flinch backwards.

"Then I guess I have fallen in love with two idiots." I grab my bags and start to head for the stairs.

"Don't leave! You know you're not going to find anyone else out there that will put up with you" Joe starts to follow behind me.

"I don't give a damn about what you think! I'm leaving and you can't stop me!"

"I won't stop you because I wouldn't kidnap you like the guy you're in love with is going to do again now that you won't let me protect you."

I'm done talking, I need to clear my mind and focus on getting into my car and leaving. I've never seen Joe like this and I don't know what he's capable of in this state of mind.

I get my bags down the stairs and luckily, he doesn't follow. It takes a bit of effort but I manage to get my bags into my car. I then remember that I don't have my car keys and silently curse. I prop my bags up on my car and take a deep breath before heading back inside.

I then start searching for my keys and eventually find them sitting on the counter. I head back out once again this time I pop my trunk and load my bags into my car. Joe comes running outside before I get a chance to drive away and he stands in front of my car before speaking.
