Piper's POV:
I blinked my eyes open slowly and squinted around the room. I was lying in Finn's arms and I sighed happily. Until it all came back. Memories of last night were circling my brain as my breathing rate picked up. This couldn't be happening. I can't be having a panic attack! I was in Finn's arms, the one place that always calmed me down. Josh had ruined it for me. Josh had tainted one of my favourite things. Suddenly the fear was replaced with anger. I stood up and hurriedly pulled on clothes. I left quickly, leaving Finn sleeping peacefully. I stormed down to the reception before taking a deep breath. As politely as I could I asked the receptionist what his room number was. 429. I marched back to the lifts and pressed floor 4. I stormed along the corridor until I reached his room. I knocked on it loudly shouting, "open up!" A moment later a sleepy eyed Josh answered the door. I barged in, not waiting for him to speak before shutting the door behind me. "What the actual fuck Josh? Why would you send a message like that? Do you know how sick that is?" I was screaming at the top of my voice, not caring about the people next door. "Pipes calm down, I can expla-." "Don't fucking tell me to calm down! And don't call me Pipes! Only people I love can call me that! I don't fucking love you! YOU WERE THE WORST THING THAT HAPPENED TO ME!" I was almost in tears as Josh tried to get a word in, "Josh don't you dare say anything other than why. Why would you do this? To go threaten me is one thing but to threaten my boyfriend? That's fucking disgusting." Josh was trying to soothe me but I wasn't going to take any more of his bullshit any longer. My voice turned deathly cold, "tell me why you did it. Or else."

Finn's POV:
I woke up with a start and looked around the room. Piper was gone. I checked the bathroom but she wasn't there. I glanced at my phone but there were no missed calls or texts. I ran my hands through my hair agitatedly before noticed the clothes strewn everywhere. Piper's clothes. She looked like she had left in a hurry. Suddenly my heart stopped. I knew where she had gone. And I knew she wasn't safe.

I hurriedly pulled on some clothes before running out the door. I bumped into Amy in the corridor so I grabbed her wrist so she would follow me. "Finn what's wrong? Is it Piper? Where is she?" I explained as we ran to the reception. Each sentence made Amy more and more horrified and soon she was almost crying, "Finn we need to find her. She isn't safe!" I nodded grimly and asked the receptionist what Josh's room number was. As soon as we got it, Amy and I turned to the lifts and went up. We went along the corridor until we were outside his room. I swore under my breath when I heard the shouting going on inside. I turned to Amy, "stay outside. If Josh tries to leave stop him. Have security on speed dial." She nodded. I turned to face the door. Here goes nothing.

Piper's POV:
I was still shouting when when someone opened the door. It was Finn. I had never wanted to see him less. "Go away Finn. This is between me and Josh." My voice was laced with venom and he flinched. In that moment I didn't even feel bad. A beat of silence. Then another. And then, without warning, everything turned to shit.

A plate was thrown at Finn's head. It missed thankfully, smashing against the wall next to his head. Finn couldn't restrain himself. He launched himself at Josh. He was kicking and punching every part of his body. I watched I silence. I couldn't feel any emotion. And then I realised. Finn was aiming to seriously injure. I raised my voice and said in an icy, even tone that would make Emily proud, "get off him Finn. He needs to explain." They stopped immediately. Everyone knew by now not to get on my bad side. "You've got 1 minute. Amy's outside with security." While they had been fighting I had seen her out the corner of my eye filming everything while calling security. The footage she had captured was important, it showed Josh starting it. Finn would not be charged. (I know that in real life that Finn would definitely get charged with something. But for the sake of the story ignore that. And like Josh low-key deserves it. Soooo.....) "Josh speak, now." "I concede. It was me. But I'm not the one pulling the strings. Someone's out their, Piper. Someone a lot more dangerous than me." After that he stood up and left the room, handing himself into security. Amy gave them the video while I stood there in shock. Finn and I were in danger. Finn wrapped his arms around me and I flinched. He pulled away and sighed. "I can't do this." He left and I sank down to the floor, my legs finally giving out. Amy sat down next to me and held my hand while I cried. Everyone was leaving me. What was happening to me? Why was everyone giving up on me? Finn said he would be there for me, forever, but he wasn't. He left me when I needed him most. He didn't know me. Someone who knew me would've stayed even if I pushed them away. Like Amy. Amy was all I had left. I felt so alone.

Everything was a blur as Amy led me to her room. Somewhere in the back of my mind I heard her kick Henry out the room, "Henry leave. Go crash with Heath and Kenzie or something. Just not Finn. Finn isn't who we thought he was. He isn't here for Piper." She pushed me onto the bed and I curled myself into a ball. She lay down next to me. She held my hand. She hugged me. She did what Finn should have done. Amy was the only thing keeping me alive. I was losing myself.

Finn's POV:
I went to my room and screamed, "FUCK!" I had messed up so much. What was I doing? I had left Piper! Everything was spinning. What was the point anymore? I was losing the things that meant most to me. Piper. Piper. Piper. I screamed into a pillow. Piper's pillow. It smelled like her. I dropped it and screamed again. I couldn't do this. Everything was crumbling around me. I needed someone. Anyone. I tried to call Henry. He declined the call. I tried to call Ozzy. He declined the call. I tried to call Kingston. He declined the call. I even tried Heath. He didn't answer. They knew. Everyone was turning against me. I wasn't there for Piper. I tried Piper. She picked up, "we're over." Her tone held no emotion. She hung up. I slammed my hand onto a counter. It felt good. I slammed my fists over and over again until they were raw and bleeding. I sank down to the floor. Piper was gone. I had nothing. I took out my wallet with shaking hands. I took the photo of us from our first, only, date. I tore it in half. I tore it into quarters. I ripped it until it was nothing but confetti. She was gone. Forever.

Piper's POV:
Finn called me. I said two words, "we're over." I hung up. Only then the magnitude of those words hit me. I couldn't take those back. The phone fell from my hand. It was done. The best days of my life were done. What had I done? I was spiralling out of control.

Somewhere far away.
He smirked to himself. His plan was working. People were going to hurt just like he did. People were going to pay for what they had done to him.

.............................

A/n: With Piper and Finn losing all hope can they ever come back from this? And who's pulling the strings? Why?

I'd love to hear who you think it is!
Me: *sips tea* ☕️

On to a happier note! Today's episode of TNS. It was incredible to my Pinn heart. (Ironic considering this chapter!) Pinn has finally sailed. I literally screamed when Piper asked Finn out. However from an objective perspective, it was a little rushed. I feel like Amy just covered up her hurt with another relationship. Which is kind of toxic. But you know Pinn is wholesome so I'm willing to over look it just this once! Tiny rant over! Ok bye!
