Office 48

Chpt 34: I always win

Blaire's POV

I laid alone in bed. Calum left me, how am I so stupid? I just let her screw with his mind. I have no point now. Calum was my everything and she ripped him away. tears filled my eyes and I stood up. I walked around my room and ran a hand through my hair. It can't be happening, the love of my life, gone. Ripped out of my arms.

1 HOUR EARLIER

Blaire's POV

I walked into office 48 with Cal's arm around my waist. he met the absolute world and I was so happy we settled everything. I walked into my office and a tech guy called for Calum. I didn't seen Elena anywhere. finally I got some sense into her thick skull. She needed to hear the truth. if I didn't tell her, she'd still be here. Ashton walked in and gave me a nasty look. "What's your problem?" I said. "Seriously? you put up all those posters of Elena around the building. I thought you'd have been more mature. it's sick" Ashton said grabbing his papers. he left and I stood up. everyone gave me death looks as I walked the hall. I hadn't seen Anna yet. I walked into the break room and there was a huge poster of Elena. There was a circle with a line through it. it said 'Kill yourself' on it. in the bottom was my signature. there were posters everywhere. everyone gave me death looks. Anna came out of the bathroom with Elena, who was 'crying' extremely hard. "Anna I-" "Don't even try Blaire. it was one think to speak your mind, but this.. I can't even look at you the same" Anna said. Elena stopped and looked at me. "I thought we could be friends but I was wrong" she said as she turned. I herd clicking and it was Kelly. she grabbed my arm and pulled me into her office. "Kelly I didn't-" "Go home today Blaire. get your shit together, face the fact that Elena is always going to be a factor in your life, and apologize" kelly said sending me out. I saw Calum and he was holding Elena. she saw me and sobbed even more. Calum said something to her and grabbed me arm. "What the hell Blaire?!? I know you don't like her, but this, it's gone to far. I can't be with someone who tells others to kill themselves. if you pull your shit together, maybe, just maybe I'll talk to you again. but this is goodbye. I'll be by later to get my bags" Calum said walking past me to Elena. Elena hugged Calum and smirked at me. "I always win" she mouthed to me. She leaned in and kissed Calum. Calum didn't push away, he kissed her back. Calum didn't just do that, he just kissed her right in front of me. I turned on my heels and bumped into someone. "Sick disturbing child" the man cursed and kept walking. I waked to the elevator and got in my car. I drove home and walked into my house. I shut the door and set my keys down. I ran my hand through my hair and tugged at it. tears streamed down my face and I walked to my bedroom. I turned over and let out a scream into my pillow. I inhaled a breath and a fractured sob came out. my knees curled up and my lips quivered. "I'm so sorry" I cried out. my hand covered my mouth and I muffled the scream. I stood up and paced. I changed into my sweat pants and packed Calum's bag. I set it by the door and sat at my counter top. I took out a pad of paper and a pen. I wrote a note and put it into Calum's sweatshirt. I walked into my room and I herd a door open. I walked out and saw Cal's wrist bands as he closed the door. We didn't even have a last goodbye. I walked to the bathroom and let out a scream. "Damn it, damn it, damn it, DAMN IT" I screamed as I through things. I opened the shower and took out my razor. I chucked it out of the bathroom and ran my hands through my hair. he's gone, the boy who made me feel like a princess is gone. I let out a huge sob and turned on the water. I pulled the plug up and it came out of the shower head. I sat in the tub in my clothes well water streamed around me. my hair became wet as I sobbed. he's gone, he really is gone.

Calum's POV

I knew Blaire would've kept something of mine. I searched through the bag and found my sweatshirts. I through them and a note fell out. I picked it up and opened it.

Calum,

I know you won't believe me, and I understand that. but you and I both know I'd never say that to someone. I did to Anna and she tried to kill herself. we both know I don't have the heart to hurt someone like that. But I guess she wins. I hope you and Elena have a good relationship. I know that you've always kind of had a thing for her, so go after it. I know you won't read this but if you are, then there must be some light of hope. I've decided its best to set you free. it's a self thing that I needed to say. we've both been set free, I know I'm not ready to take on the world with out you by my side... But I'll try, I really hope our friendship isn't effected in any way shape or form. Knowing Elena she probably made you swear never to talk to me and I'll respect that. Because right now, in this moment here, I don't want to even look at myself. you've changed me as a person so hopefully you can do the same to your new girlfriend,

I still love you and always will

Blaire Paisley

Inside the letter was the photo booth pictures of us. I closed my eyes and sighed. was I really going to let the girl of my dreams go? I don't think I was ready for this either. I need to hear her voice once more. I went to open the door and then it opened up. It wasn't locked or shut tightly. I walked in and herd shower water. I breathed in and walked in. I opened the shower and there sat Blaire, clothes soaking wet, hair curly from the water, knees pressed to her chest, and her head down. She didn't even know I was here. I walked out and then heard the water shut off. I walked quickly towards the door and as I was about to grab the door handle I felt something in my stomach. I turned around and she was there. "Ca- Calum? what are you-" "Say it to my face Blaire" I said walking towards her. "You know I would never say that. she's trying to make everyone hate me, which I don't blame her, because now I'm starting to hate myself too" Blaire said turning around. she was crying. "I know, but say what you wrote in the letter. I don't believe that you want to set me free. Say it" I said turning her around. "If I say it, I'm lying to myself" she said looking down. "Tell me the truth" I said cupping her cheek. "I can't set you free, because losing you would be like losing myself" she said. I moved away and ran my hands through my hair. I looked at her and she stood there. her brown eyes locked on my every movement. "Elena, she means nothing" I said. "Really? because kissing her back passionately in front of me means nothing?" Blaire said. "She kissed me! she's been after me and I hate myself for this. I let her get in my head and trick me into believing all these lies. she's the biggest liar of all. but one lie I know that is true is that I will never stop loving you" I said.

Blaire's POV

My heart was in my chest. I couldn't believe that he actually is doing this. "She's the biggest liar of all. but one lie I know that's true is that I will never stop loving you" he said as he walked towards me. Calum cupped my cheeks and kissed me. I ran my hands through his hair and he picked me up. I was placed on the counter and I tangled my fingers in his hair. "I'm so sorry" I said. "I'm the one who should be sorry, I'll get everything fixed baby, I promise you. I'll make Elena go away" Calum said carrying me to the bedroom.
