my eyes crack open as soon as a ray of sunlight hits my face. i flinch at the bright light and groan.

"what the hell?" i whisper to myself as i get up.

i had fallen asleep on my desk with the lamp on. my memory is foggy but as soon as i catch a glimpse of the note in front of me, they flood back. i mentally pinch myself for being such an ass to y/n.

last night, went the opposite of how i wanted it to. however, it's in the past. i cant take back my mistakes as much as i want to.

the pain in my heart grows as i remember everything she told me yesterday. how she wanted to leave. there's no way she would've caught a plane a day after. she wouldn't do that to me, i think.

i finally look at the clock.

9:00 am.

i overslept practice and school. i might as well not go today. it's a friday anyway.

i finally reach over to my phone and groan again when i realize my phone died. i plug it into the charger and leave my room to make myself some breakfast.

maybe y/n is at school... if she's not i'll go see her and apologize.

i grab a small cup of yogurt from my fridge and return to my room. my phone powers back up just as i walk in.

i eagerly look at the screen, expecting to see a text from y/n. none.

however, i had 6 missed messages from semi.

from: mother swan
message: she's not at school.

message: maybe she overslept?

message: you overslept too... coach was mad.

message: you're still sleeping? damn. wish that was me.

message: you should go see her, just in case something happened.

message: let me know when you see her.

i quickly finish off my yogurt and yank my phone off the charger.

i grab the note i wrote and a jacket to make the trek to y/n's apartment.

to: mother swan
message: on my way to her house. i'll let u know.

i finally make it to y/n's apartment and i curse myself for not remembering the exact number her room is.

i stand in the hallway and rack my brain for the number.

213? no it was definitely 215.... but i remember the room being on the left side? shit.

i stand in front of a door with flowers in a pot next to it.

214... it has to be this one, plus, there's flowers next to the door... y/n would definitely do this.

i knock on the door and wait.

no answer.

i knock on the door again, a tad bit harder. i hear rustling from the other side of the door, but still, no answer.

"y/n... i'm sorry. i messed up. please answer the door."

she doesn't answer.

"listen, i'm a coward okay! i'm so sorry! i didn't mean to hurt your feelings i was just scared." i stop. i wait.

the door doesn't open.

"fuck y/n! do you need me to say it like you already don't know?" i state, my cheeks beginning to get hot.

nothing.

"god! fine! i love you y/n! i always have. ever since i met you, i loved you. i still do. i never stopped. even when you forgot about me. even when you left me at the train station! i never stopped loving you!" i yell. i stand there, feeling like a fool for confessing my love to a door.

suddenly, i hear more rustling from the other side, and the door unlocks and opens.

my heart sinks.

an elderly lady peeks her head out the door, she smiles sweetly at me but it doesn't help my embarrassment.

"i believe you have the wrong apartment my dear, however that was a brilliant display of affection." she says. i scratch the back of my head.

"i'm really sorry about this... do you happen to know someone named y/n?" i ask, still blushing.

her face falls, and my heart sinks with it.

"y/n's apartment was apartment 215... however, she left this morning. i saw her carrying some luggage as i was carrying the trash out." she says sadly.

"oh... okay. thank you." i say. she gives me a sad smile before closing her door.

i shuffle over to apartment 215 and knock on the door. tears brim my eyes when the door doesn't open. i grip the doorknob and push the unlocked door open.

y/n's apartment was completely cleared out of anything that was her's. i grip the note in my hand and unlock my phone.

i call her number.

"i'm sorry, this number has been deactivated-"

my hands shake as tears fall freely down my face.

to: mother swan
message: she's gone.
