Erika's pov
I wake up with my hair everywhere, dry tears and I just felt absolutely horrible. I walk into my bathroom and wash my face. I brush my hair and take a deep breath. I look at myself in the mirror... it was almost instantaneously I started crying again. I walk back to my room and sit on my bed. I grab my phone to see if he has texted me.. Cortney... Shannon... Rocky... business business business nope. Damn. I wipe my eyes and call my mom.

Angel: Hey Sweetie

Erika: *sniffs* Hi.

Angel: Erika? I thought you were with Jake?

Erika: We didn't make it very far... *sniffs* and we had to turn around.

Angel: Erika... maybe it's not the end? You've called me like this before.

Erika: Mom... it's official. I don't know what to do with myself... he was supposed to be my forever!!

Angel: Rik...

Erika: *sighs* Don't worry. Bye Love you.

I hang up and put my phone down. I can't believe this!

I walk into my bathroom. I see her empty vanity. It's not supposed to look like that...

After talking to Jake about him and Erika for the last hour I walk to my room. I sit on my bed and grab my phone. I text Erika -

Erika Costell 🐐

Hey Erika, Obviously I know that u and Jake have split but you're one of my closest friends and I thought I'd make sure you're ok. ❤️

I'll always be here for u to talk to. I hope u and me r still cool and we can still talk ❤️

My phone starts beeping. I quickly grab it and see messages from Anthony. Honestly it made me feel a little better. One main reason I really couldn't stand the idea of Jake and I breaking up is because I didn't wanna loose Team 10. I don't even know what gonna happen now.

Anthony Truj 🤘

Thanks Toner. Knowing that u wanted to reach out makes me happy. I really don't wanna loose Team 10 because u guys r my family. I'll always be here for u too 🖤

I put my phone down. I walk upstairs to my room. I sit on my bed and grab a small box. I open my side table drawer. I kind of instantly regret it. I pull out a picture of me and Jake. Fuck. A tear falls from my eye. It wasn't instant crying but I feel like just seeing the picture made me realise.. fuck it's over. It's sad because I love him so much. Tears fall faster and faster.

*KNOCK KNOCK*

Fuck. I wipe my eyes on my sleeve and stand up. I walk downstairs and see Shannon standing at my back door. She smiles at me. I week smile back. I open the door.

Shannon: Erika... have you been crying?

Shannon walks in. I shut the door. She puts all her shit down. She wraps her arms around me. I bury my head into her shoulder.

Shannon: It's gonna be okay.

Erika: I just *sniffs* thought we'd be together forever.
