Trust is easy to lose hard to gain. Without trust in a relationship what do you have? just two people hanging out. Trust is the foundational principle that holds all relationships. Look at it like this a relationship without trust is like a phone without service, what do you do with a phone without service? you play games.

-Jakes P.O.V-

I woke in the hotel room and looked at the time on my phone "wow it's noon I never slept in that late" I looked around and didn't see Maria or Payton. I unlocked my phone to see a missed message from Amy. I ignored it and went on Twitter I went to the trends; Jayton
#PaytonM.I.A
Heartbroken
There where others but those are the only ones that stuck out. I clicked on Jayton and didn't like what I read,

@Taylor694: I really hope Jayton is ok they are meant for each other

@Jayton4ever: I love Jake and Payton together but I still can't believe he cheated on her

My fans know?! So that must mean Payton found out. I went to #PaytonM.I.A

@Angel333: In order for her to get over this heartbreak she had to leave...damn Jake must've done it this time #PaytonM.I.A

@Ghost78: Payton please don't do anything bad your posts are scaring me #PaytonM.I.A

I went to her timeline,

@PaytonMiller: I'm done I can't do it anymore

@PaytonMiller: I knew it from the beginning but I just didn't want to believe it

I couldn't read anymore. Tears filled my eyes just then I saw her post again but it was a link. I clicked on it and it led me to her facebook,

@PaytonMiller: Hello this is her dad she's not feeling well she won't leave her room and she's been really depressed lately not even Baylor can make her smile. All she says is that her heart hurts. I feel so bad but she is with me and I'm keeping an eye on her. She just wants let you all know that she loves you all and thanks you for caring so much and to the person who did this...I hope your happy you broke her.

I logged off. I laid my head on the pillow feeling like a complete asshole. I messed up the best thing in the world and over a drunk mistake. I exhaled and got off the bed and went to my suitcases.

-Payton's P.O.V-

I'm laying in bed my pillow is damp and my cheeks are stained with tears. The same questions came into my head "what did I do to deserve this? Why did he do this? How long has this been going on? Did he even love me?" and no matter how much I pushed them back they always made it back to the front which only made me cry even more. My dad and Bethany have been watching Maria and I honestly couldn't thank them enough for that, but I decided it was time to get out of bed.

After my shower I wore my brothers black basketball shorts and a yellow t-shirt. I put my hair half up half down and put on foundation and mascara. I went down the steps and into the kitchen where my dad and Bethany are they saw me and smiled,

"Hey how you feeling?" my dad asked

"My heart still hurts but it will get better" I said while getting a bottle of water "eventually" I exhaled

Bethany put her arm around me and I leaned into her. It's just Bethany, my dad and I in the house my sister is back at the camp and my brother is with his Army friends hanging out,

"Where's Maria?" I asked

"Dance class" Bethany replied "she gets out at two-thirty"

My dad is looking at places to have the wedding,
