Zion's POV
(Play the song!!)
I walked over to Luna, wiping her tears away. This was the first time she had let me get close to her. Seeing her like this, it did something to me. It broke my heart. I did this to her...again. "Luna.. I am so so sorry" I whispered to her. She closed her eyes, her breathing becoming unsteady. Her bottom lip started to quiver. Without any thought, I pulled her into my chest. I wrapped my arms around her small frame. "Luna, I'm so sorry. I will never be able to forgive myself for this. For all of it" I said to her. As I held onto her, I began to think back to that day. I was with Mya the entire day. I remember I had my phone with me..except when I left Mya alone. She wouldn't have done that. Would she? Nah she wouldn't pull that off. Luna pulled away from my grasp and walked away. She went to her kitchen, I didn't know if should've followed or not. I debated on what to do, I walked into the kitchen. She was standing at the sink, looking out her window. I walked over to the kitchen island. I noticed there open mail scattered.

I read the letter, she's moving to New York? I looked up at her. She was still facing away from me. "You're moving?" I asked her, she didn't look at me. I watched as she put her head down. She cleared her throat before answering. "Yeah, I uh, I got a job offer at the museum there." She replied, so that's it. She was just gonna leave. "W When do you leave?" I asked. Luna had finally turned to face me. She took a deep breath, "I leave this weekend.." she replied. I placed her letter down on the table and walked away. I went to her living room and sat down. I don't know why but I felt betrayed. I shouldn't feel this way but I do. I hurt Luna countless times before. So why does it feel like my heart is being ripped out. I heard the back door open, I looked up and seen her walking out. Not long after, Ollie got up from the couch and ran to Luna. I walked over to the back door, noticing Luna was on the phone. "He knows...he showed up asking me about the texts...of course I told him...no, no...I'm leaving this life behind. Brandon, I don't care, I put my career on hold for him. I got my heart broke because of him. No brandon. He's starting his own family. I'm starting my own life...okay, bye" she said before hanging up. I walked out of her house, "so this is it huh?" I asked her, she slightly jumped when I spoke. A small smile crept up on my face. "I uh yeah I guess so." She replied. It got quiet between us, expect for Ollie running around. "Caleb.. I think this is goodbye. I don't think I'd be back in LA for some time. I need to move on with my life. You have Mya and your baby. I just have my career going for me. You'll be a great father. Just don't forget your kid at the park" she laughed and so did I. "But wherever life takes you, I hope you find your happiness. We weren't for each other, the universe had shown us that time after time. It's time we let go of the pass and move on. I have loved you since i was 18, you'll always have a place in my heart. But I think it's time we let go of each other. To find our own paths and happiness. We weren't each other's happiness and we both know that. I appreciate the time we had together. You take care of yourself, okay?" She said to me. I felt tears fall from my eyes. I watched as she stood up and kissed my cheek. "I think it's time for you to go." She said to me. I didn't want to leave. I didn't want her to leave me. But she was right, we could never make each other happy. I stood up and hugged her. Holding onto her one last time. "Always?" I asked her, she chuckled and nodded her head. "Always." She replied. I let go of her and kissed her forehead. "Goodbye Luna" I said to her. She gave me a small smile, "goodbye Caleb." She said. I walked out of her house for the last time. This hurt me way more than I led on. It was like a apart of me was left with her. Luna was my first real girlfriend, she showered me with love and support. Not once did she ever use me for my fame nor money. She showed me what real love was suppose to feel like. And I took it for granted. But what she said had some truth to it. It was time for us to move on, time to find our own happiness. As much as I hate it, I have to let her go.
(Only a couple more chapters left, sadly this book is coming to an end😔 but I can't thank you all enough for all the support you've given me💓)
