Zach's POV

Jaden, Zoey and I ran into Nick's car, so the others wouldn't stop us. Love Letter by Payton came on. Zoey and Jaden smiled so bright.

Zoey and Jaden jumped into the back as I sat up front with Nick. I placed a kiss on Nick's cheek.

I said, "Oh, don't tell me that"
How you telling me you love me then you take it back?
What's love?
Can you tell me that?
If I gave you the world would you give it back?

Like oh-oh
Can you tell me
Where the love go?
Is my heart on my sleeve
Or in your coat?

I just wanna know baby
Where the love go
Yeah I don't even know myself
Trying to help me but I don't need help

You said you loved me and no one else
Yeah, so here's a love letter to myself
Yeah I don't even know myself
Trying to help me but I don't need help

You said you loved me and no one else
Yeah, so here's a love letter to myself
Hey, I uh just want to check in
I've been really worried about you
Uh, where have you been?
What's, what's going on?

All these memories, they bring problems back
You know the way I feel
There's nothing wrong with that
You got a new man

But I can't help with that
I just hope you find yourself
Before you hit me back
Like oh-oh

Can you tell me
Where'd the love go?
Is my heart on my sleeve
Or in your coat?
I just wanna know baby

Where the love go?
Yeah, I don't even know myself
Tryna help me but I don't need help

Yeah, I don't even know myself
Tryna help me but I don't need help
You said you loved me and no one else
Yeah, so here's a love letter to myself

Boy, I spent some time by myself
Realize I don't need nobody else, yeah
I'm just tryna find the love inside me

Can you please just let me die in peace?
They say if you love her then you let her go
And you want the best for me yes, I know
I just need to take a step back and grow
But you deserve the world, I hope you know

I guess you really found yourself
Now that you're happy with somebody else
You said you love me but you love yourself

Yeah, so here's a love letter to myself
Yeah, I don't even know myself
Tryna help me but I don't need help
You said you love me and no one else
Yeah, so here's a love letter to myself

Yeah, I don't even know myself
Tryna help me but I don't need help
You said you love me and no one else
Yeah, so here's a love letter to myself

Zoey smile slowly disappeared as the song died out. Jaden grabbed her hand and kissed her cheek.

"I love you." Jaden said.

"I love you too." Zoey said. "I just feel alone. There's Bloah, Grio, Bryler, Jash and Zick. Then there's me."

"Yes, you're the only person that is single, but that means the right person is just somewhere else." I said  and Zoey smiled.

"I sure hope so." Zoey said and we laughed as we pulled into the mall.

"Time for us to party." Nick said.
