I entered his room, my eyes filled with tears, and my heart pounding fast. He had his back towards me, wearing a black tux, he stood tall. "You wanted to know how I feel about you," I stated and swallowed my tears. He slowly turned around and gave a jerk to his brow. "I'm here to confess," I closed my eyes and tears rolled down my cheeks. It was hard for me to confess my feelings before someone who has done nothing but ruin my life, on top of that, surrendering before he was hard too. He was watching my face with a smirk of pride. "I love you, Sawyer!" I mumbled, noticing his unbuttoned shirt. His smile grew bigger and he scoffed, licking his lower lip and narrowing his eyes, he knew he has won. "Who is this babe?" my whole world shook under my feet when a girl walked out of the bathroom with his shirt on. She wasn't wearing anything other than his shirt. "She is a fan." he joked, wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her close to his chest. A gasp escaped my lips and I gulped, the pain was too much. "Is she going to stand here and ruin our night?" she questioned, rolling her eyes and playing on his chest with her fingers. "Why?" I whispered, my eyes watching Sawyer with pain and questions in them. How can he make me confess and then sleep with someone else? "Well, you can enjoy it with my guards if you like." He stated very disrespectfully, the hope of love, the wish of a happy life, and the thought of Sawyer with this girl, not only broke my heart but it broke me.
