Chasing Impossible Love (on hold)

"I can't lose you! Not again. Just please listen!" He begs trying to get closer to me.

"No, no stay away from me! Please just don't come any closer. I can't be by you right now. Just go to Erika. I need to think." I put my hand on my head and run it down my face.

"I'm not leaving you!" He yells.

"Well that's not your choice!" I paused and turn around facing him. "I'm leaving or you are!" I yell back not bothering to wipe my tears. I didn't realize how much I had fallen for him in such a short time.

He didn't respond.

"I guess I'll be leaving." I say pushing past him.

"You know I care about you." He says in a whisper as I begin to leave. He doesn't move, standing still as was I.

"I guess not as much as I thought you did." And I step out of the room continuing to cry.

love is weakness, at least for Ryder and Jade.
they both have been hurt, and they both try to hide it, so why is it harder to hide feeling from each other
