I kept overthinking, on the bad thing that Brooklyn might do to himself, I couldn't take it anymore so I headed upstairs. I wanted to run, but I wanted to seem like I was going to the bathroom or something. I walked toward Brooklyn's room, I listened before I went in and heard crying, Then I walked in. It was dark, but I could just see the outlines of his room

Ellie- brook?

I turned my phone flashlight on and saw Brooklyn in bed, just before he put the duvet over his face, I saw it. The pain, the tears streaming down his face. I turn the light off and sit on the side of his bed, I leaned down and hugged him.

Brooklyn- why choose him? After what he did and what we've been through?!

He said in an angry and broken voice

Ellie- I'm so so sorry brook, I didn't know I'd hurt you this bad

Brooklyn- you don't have to be sorry. I'll get out of your way

He got up and went out the room. After that I didn't see him. I decided to stay the night, but something didn't feel right. I decided to sleep on it. The next day I woke up to rye on his sofa. He had his hands over his face. I sat up

Ellie- rye what's wrong?

Rye- Brooklyn's gone

Ellie- what!?

Rye- he's disappeared, I don't know when, but there's loads of things missing in his room.

Ellie- we need to find him!

I got up and headed to the bathroom

Rye- Ellie wait.

He took my hand and turned me to face him.

Rye- I know this isn't what you want. I hurt you, and Brooklyn heals you.

Ellie- rye

Rye- you love him don't you

I nodded

Ellie- I'm sorry, I thought I could fix it before, I though I was in love with you and Brooklyn but it's just Brooklyn

At this point I started to tear up

Rye- hey hey. Stop crying, it will be okay. Ellie I want you happy, I can see you love Brooklyn, everyone sees it. I knew from the start that you two would be cute together.

Ellie- I'm sorry

Rye- don't, don't you dare be sorry. Love is love. Brooklyn will only want to talk to you right now.

Ellie- are you sure?

Rye- of course, we can be best friends. And I won't get in your way, I won't get jealous, I will look at you and be happy.

He gave me a hug.

Ellie- the only problem is where is Brooklyn?

Rye- I'm not sure, um he might have gone home

Ellie- are you sure?

Rye- pretty sure. go bring him back el

I smiled at him and rushed and got ready, I got my stuff and headed downstairs and out the door, before anything, I texted Brooklyn's mum just to check he's there
