Telly's P.O.V.

Currently I was standing next to a water fountain watching Bryn's mom and Chris smile and take pictures. I did tell Bryn. But her mom forgave him. Right now I was looking for my pink haired twinkletoes. I picked up a glass full of bubbly champagne. " I didn't expect to see you here." I heard Logan's voice behind me.

"Oh I didn't expect to come either. I just wanted to congratulate them." I hadn't talked to Logan since last week.

"Did you tell her?" He was doing his best to stay friendly even though he would most likeky explode.

"Yes I did. Her mom forgave him of course and I hadn't been staying as long at work that much." I stared down into the still bubbling drink.

"You look beautiful by the way."

"Thank you. How was your week?"

"Not good. The love of my life has been ignoring me. My calls and texts. And every other attempt of contact all because her boyfriend told her to stop." His eyes looked glassy and I noticed they were brown. I looked above me. The moon was almost up.

"Its the full moon. You shouldn't be here." I reminded him.

" Just don't anger me. I'll be fine."

"Logan. I didn't want it to be like this. I really didn't. Its just really hard for me."

"For you to admit that you're in love with me. For you to admit that you want to be with me."

"Its not that easy to get away from one person to be with another. Logan you can't just drop everything in a relationship to be with someone else. Its absurd."

"You're not even in love with him so its not that hard. I know that."

"No you don't know. You can't tell me who I'm in love with. You aren't in tune with my emotions." I made the mistake of twisting the ring on my finger. It was gold and the shape of a crown embedded with hearts. His large hands took mine.

"What the fuck is that!"

"Its a promise ring." I took my hand from his again.

"What promise did he make. I'll never fuck you but make out with as many bitches behind your back as possible."

"Is that the promise you made Remie? Because that totally matches your attitude. She is like doing everything possible for you to notice her Logan." I took a step away from him.

"Clearly I have no interest in her. Not at all. Because I'm not in love with her. I'm in love with you Telly. I always have been." He stepped forward and kissed me trying to change my mind. I pulled away from him in disgust. I saw Remie staring at us from behind. She had heard every word. Her eyes looked glossy and by the looks of it her heart stopped.

"You don't love me?" She seemed broken and he had fucked up really bad. He turned around in shock.

"No Remie. This isn't what it looks like. I can explain this." He tried to make her stay but she was already crying. "Remie don't go please."

"No Logan. Just stay away from me. I'm done." And with that she walked away. I turned away from him and saw Jared. He had heard every word too.

His face was red and it looked like he was gonna snap. "Jared. Say something." I shook him trying to wake him up. He shrugged me off and dropped his ring in my hand.
