Through The Storm

I'll Always Love You

Bryan's POV

I walk to her apartment and knock on the door. My nerves getting the best of me already.

"Coming!" I hear her yell from inside.

When she opens the door I see her face and tears run down mine.
I could tell she didn't want to see me, she's looking at me like she had just seen a ghost.

"(Your name)." I say. That was the only thing that would come out.

"Go away Bryan! I had nothing to say to you in LA and I have nothing to say to you now!" She says as she tries slamming the door in my face.

"Please! Let me in. Can't we just talk?" I say letting the tears run down my cheeks.

"No Bryan! Like I said, I have nothing to say to you. I'm sorry you wasted your time and money coming here but you can leave." She says still trying to shut the door.

With my hand and foot holding the door open I say, "(your name), please it was a-"
Just then she whips the door wide open.

"What Bryan?! It was a mistake?! Yeah you said that already." She yells.

Just then my first instinct is to grab her and kiss her, so I do. And I kick the door closed behind me. Putting everything I possibly could into this kiss I let my lips do the talking. I've missed her, I love her, and I need her to know that.

She pushes me away and stares at me. I just want to hold her.

"Please go." She whispers starting to cry herself.

"Please don't do this." I plead with her choking back more tears.

"I'm sorry Bryan but-" It was clear she wanted me to leave. She needed her space. More space.

"It's okay. I understand. I'll go." I say as I turn for the door.
"But (your name)," I start.

"What?" She asks still letting tears slowly fall down her face.

"I'll always love you." I say before closing the door behind me.

When I close the door I stand with my back to it and call Chris.

"Yeah, she didn't want to see me. But I can't leave yet. I need to talk to her." I tell him before hanging up.

I lean against the wall and burry my face in my hands crying. I slide down the wall and sit there with my head against the wall.

"How? Why did I do this?" I whisper to myself.

Replaying the events leading up to her arriving and catching me in bed with Kallie I try to think of a way to make things right.
