The Love Story

Falling apart

Austin POV

I knew it was terrible to try to kill myself. But I was in so much pain and I went home and cried and just looked at the wall and thought about all the things worse than this and there was nothing. I would rather lose all my money and lose everything but her. She was the only thing keeping my life together. The only thing, that was real. The only person who told me how it was. She didn't exaggerate anything. She made it simple. She was the girl of my dreams. How did my best friend steal her away?

I know he felt terrible because he was the only reason I was alive at that moment. He saved me. I will thank him for that every day. But he still caused the attempt. I could never forgive him for putting me through that heartbreak and bullshit. They just watched as my heart dropped down to my stomach and shattered into a million pieces. My whole life went down the drain. I had already missed 4 shows. I stayed in the hospital for 3 days. Then, I had to go back to my hotel and stay in bed for a week. I had to talk to Zach and Robert!

It was time that I had went back to the hotel. I invited Robert and Zach over to talk. They moved to another part of Texas and they were rapping partners with a big managing company. It took them 2 hours to get there.

"He actually did that?!" Zach said freaking out when I finished telling them the story.

"How could they do that to you? We knew they were dating but we thought you knew. We never thought she would watch as your heart broke. I know you couldn't do that to her!"

"Yeah, I feel useless. I feel like I deserved it though. I deserved to have her break my heart. I broke her heart millions of times before I left but I didn't realize it."

"I have an idea! Robert come with me!"

They ran out of the house with smirks on their faces.

Alex POV

I decided to go to Jasmine's and tell her what happened.

I knocked on the door and when they didn't answer I walked inside.

"Hey, beautiful." I screamed walking upstairs.

I heard Gabby and Cameron freaking out about something. Gabby and Cameron were both amazing singers but they both wanted to be psychologists with their fabulous boyfriends, Brady and Jimmy. They are twin brothers and they scare me.

I knocked on the door and Jasmine gave me a kiss on the cheek. Gabby and Cameron both gave me a hug. Cameron had added brown highlights to her hair and Gabby had added red to her dark brown hair. They both looked really pretty. We hung out a lot most of the time. But, we have all been busy the past couple of weeks. Christmas was always a busy time of year.

"Hey! What's up?"

"Actually, something bad happened! Austin attempted to kill himself and fortunately, I stopped over by his house at the perfect time to force him to let go of the knife. He just left the hospital. It's been 3 days. We are the reason why. I feel terrible, Jasmine.

"Why baby, it isn't your fault! That's terrible! But, it isn't your fault, it's mine. I need to go talk to him."

"I think you should probably wait. I need to tell you something."

"Okay."

"Alone."

Cameron and Gabby walk out of the room.

"I just told them about the proposal! They are so excited for us baby! I can't wait! I love you!"

"About that, I need to talk to you. The ring I gave you cost a million dollars. It is one of the most expensive rings I could have gotten. But, I didn't get it. Austin did."

"What? I'm confused. Why would he buy the ring for you to propose? He hates that we are together!"

"Jasmine, Austin was planning-"

We heard a loud noise downstairs, and we hear loud footsteps stomping up the stairs. We weren't prepared to see Zach and Robert at the door.

"Get out of here!" Robert screamed at Gabby and Cameron. They ran out of the house like it was on fire. I realized that they both had guns in their hands. Jasmine started crying. I was wondering what the fuck was happening. They were my best friends and they were pointing a gun at me and Jasmine. Why was this happening to me?

"Tell her what this is about Alex! Tell her why we are here!"

" I don't know!"

They put the gun up to my cheek and asked three more times. Robert slapped me. And Zach started kicking her.

"Tell her about you and Sarah! Tell her all about how Sarah still loves you. Tell her before I shoot her!" Then they put the other gun up to her heart. Robert's hand went closer to the trigger until he pointed it up at the ceiling and pulled it. We both jumped thinking that he just killed her. Even Zach thought he killed her.

"I'm serious I will shoot her guts out. And I will make you suffer and watch her die until I kill you too. I swear, I will rip you apart piece by piece. Bone by bone. I will make you feel the worst pain ever. You will see the blood flow out of her body and know that you could have stopped it. I will torture you. I swear it."

I needed to tell her. She deserved to know. She was so beautiful. Why did I give that up? How could I do this to her? I hated myself. Robert pointed the gun
"Okay! I was using you, Jasmine. I didn't like you at the beginning. I actually thought you were obnoxious. I was using you to make Sarah jealous. It worked. Sarah started liking me again. But, I had to keep drawing her in. I had to make her fall for me so much that she wouldn't ever want to lose me again. I wanted to make her feel bad. I started cheating on you 4 months ago. I wanted to tell you but I couldn't. But then, I fell in love. I love you, Jasmine. I love you more than anything. Me and her are over. It's over."
"How could you do that to me? You take her to the same places? Did you tell her you love her? Well, she can have your lying ass. For all I care, you could go die in a hole somewhere far far away from here. Maybe Alaska?"
"No, you would care because at the bottom of your heart even throughout all the pain I put you through, you still care. You would still take a bullet for me. You can't deny that."

She slapped me in the face which I deserved. Her face was indescribable. It looked like her heart had just been ripped out of her chest and she was trying to make her body function again. She kept crying and put her face in her hands with a look of fear and hurt in her eyes. How did I put her through that torturous pain knowing that it would come to this? Zach told us not to tell anyone or else. Both of them, put their guns down and walked out with discrete looks on their faces.

"Is there anything else you want to tell me?!"

" I proposed to you with the ring Austin was going to give you. He came to propose and dropped the ring when he saw us kissing. I'm sorry, Jasmine. I really love you!"

"Shut up! All you really cared about was making Sarah jealous. How could you do this to me? You just make me fall in love with you and leave. I'm so done."

She shoved her head in her pillow. I walked out without another word. She had every reason to hate me. She deserved to be with Austin or anyone better than me.
