Carly's POV

I slowly opened my eyes and sighed. I looked over at the empty spot next to my bed. I frowned. I already have a plan. I'm moving away after Christmas, getting away from Nikki for good, I'm still going to be in California, but not anywhere near Nikki. I can't keep doing this, we are good for a while and then things get really bad. It's exhausting, I can't keep running back to him. I sat up and stretched. I hardly got any sleep last night, everything between Nikki and I kept running through my head, I couldn't stop crying last night. 

I finally got out of bed and walked into the kitchen. "Good morning, Carls." Tommy said, walking in. I smiled a little. "Morning." I replied, getting a beer from the fridge. "Have you changed your mind?" He asked. I shook my head. "No, I can't be close to Nikki anymore. He'll continue to come back into my life and I know that I'll keep running back to him. For my own sanity, I need to break away from him." I said. Tommy frowned. "I'll miss you so much, though." He said. I walked over and hugged him. "I'll tell you where I live, but you cannot tell Nikki." I said. He hugged me back. "I promise I will not tell him, I just don't want my best friend to leave me." He said. I smiled.

We broke away from our embrace. "I already got myself a place," I said. "Where at?" He asked. "San Francisco." I replied. Tommy nodded. "I'll come and see you as often as I possibly can." He smiled. "I appreciate that, Tom." I said and kissed his cheek. "Anyways, enough sappiness." Tommy said. "Let's have some fun." He said and grabbed a beer from the fridge and got a bottle of vodka. "You already want to get drunk?" I laughed. He nodded. "Hell yeah! Let's forget about our problems." He said, taking the lid off. "What problems do you have?" I asked. "My best friend is sad and I can't do anything about it." He said. Aw, he's too sweet.

"Aw, Tommy." I said, smiling. "You're too pure for this world, you know that?" I asked and took a sip of my beer. He chuckled. "Thanks, small fry." He said. He got our shot glasses and put them on the counter. "We'll stay fucked up the entire day, every time one of us is sobering up, we take another shot." Tommy said. "For some reason, this sounds like a bad idea." I laughed. "Trust me, it's not." He said, he poured a shot for both of us. "1, 2, 3–" Tommy got cut off by someone knocking on the door. "For fuck sakes!" He exclaimed. I laughed and put my shot down. I walked over to the door and opened it.

"Please, come home." Nikki cried. My eyes went wide. Nikki looks like absolute hell, his eyelids are swollen, his eyes are bloodshot, his face looks raw and puffy, his hair is all disheveled. And, most noticeable of all, his nose. I don't think it's broken, but it's all bruised. "Nikki, how did you know I was here?" I asked. "Please, I'm so sorry. Just, come home with me." He sobbed, taking my hands in his. I felt tears fill my eyes. "Hey! No, no, no. Nikki, you gotta get out." Tommy ran up behind me. "You're suppose to be my best friend, Tommy." Nikki said, wiping the tears off his face. "You're never suppose to lay your hands on a woman but, you did." Tommy replied.

"Nikki, I'm leaving after Christmas." I said. "I'm moving away from you, I can't keep doing this shit." I said. His eyes went wide. "You're leaving me again? You're moving away?" He asked, clearly hurt. I felt tears run down my face. "I-I–" "Do not try to guilt trip her." Tommy cut me off. "She's doing something for herself for once." He said. Nikki looked back at me. "This is it? This is the end of our relationship?" He asked. "No, it ended as soon as you shoved me." I replied. "Nikki, I love you too much. I have to break away, you need to understand. Maybe we'll see one another again someday but, for now. We need to get away from each other." I added on.

Nikki shook his head. "I ruin absolutely everything good in my life, don't I?" He asked, on the verge of tears again. "Nik–" "I gotta go, have a great life, Carly." He said, giving me a sad smile. "You'll always be my Starry Eyes." He added on and walked back to his car. He quickly got in and drove away. I felt my knees buckle and I fell for the ground. I started sobbing, I felt arms wrap around me. I already knew it was Tommy. "Hey, it's okay. Calm down, Carls." He said in my ear. "Are you ready to go get drunk? So drunk we forget our names?" He asked. I looked up at him and nodded. He chuckled a little. "Let's go, small fry." He said.
