Bens POV

So I messed up. Like really really messed up. I was just so angry and- it doesn't matter. I messed up and thats that.

I grab myself a beer and leave for my bathroom. My legs fall limp against the cool, white tile. I prop my back against the grey wall and sip the beverage from my hand. My height allows me to see my reflection in the low hanging mirror. Eyes bloodshot. Tear stains down my cheek. I lean my head back, recalling the events of this morning.

The only sounds in the room being a clink of my glass bottle on the floor and the low hum of a vacuum cleaner upstairs, I had the perfect space to think. Perfect space to remember what a dick I was. Perfect time to try and figure out how i could get her back. Before I knew it, I was crying once again. I felt like a small child, crying like this. When you lose the best thing to ever happened to you, its instinctive to let it out.

A loud knock appeared at the door. I grunted as I picked myself up off the floor, washing my face from the sobbing that occurred. I gathered myself and put on a poker face, hoping I wouldn't have another breakdown. It was her.

"Ben. Hi. I wanted to say, I'm sorry for everything earlier. I took a walk and I think we should just sit down and talk about it. This fighting is for kids, let's settle this like adults"

It took everything in me not to grasp her waist and pull her into a hug. My lips tingle at the sight of her. I hold open the door and invite her in.

Your POV

He let's me in the door. We make way to the kitchen, sitting across from each other at the table.

"Ben, I know I've made mistakes in this relationship. But today, I feel like you took it too far"

"I know, I know. And y/n, I cant tell you how much I want to take it all back. Every bit of it"

He grabs my hands, which were resting on the table in front of me. He licks his lips before looking up at me. Those puppy dog eyes get me everytime.

"Please, y/n. Let me take it back. Give me a second chance. Tell me what I can do to make this work again."

My heart broke, little by little. It's not the first time he's been like this, and I don't know how much longer I can put up with it. Along with this thought, I dont know how long I could go without him. My soul shatters with the thoughts of ending our relationship for good, though I know it may be best for the both of us.

"Ben, I dont know. I dont know how much longer I can deal with it, how you can make it better, how long i could go without you. I dont know when it will be okay, when we will be okay. I just dont know"

Tears escape my eyes as I grab my purse and toss it over my shoulder.

"I need to think" I say, pacing out of the door. I hear him faintly calling for me while I wipe the tears from my face. I pull out from the street and drive until I feel its a good time to stop.

I get out of the car and sit on the cliff side, recalling and debating events of my relationship with Ben. I think about ending it, taking a break if you will. Just when I picture ways to break up with him (though I don't want to), a car pulls up next to mine.

Ben runs out of his black car and caresses me in a hug. Both of us stand in silence, him holding me while I have sad thoughts of breaking our relationship.

"I cant do this anymore Ben. At least not for now. Go on tour, seriously. When you come back I will have an answer for you. I need some time."

I release myself from the embrace and run back to my vehicle, leaving him alone on the cliff side. I cry as I reach my street, knowing that I am losing my relationship, one of the only good things to happen to me for the past few years. I was letting it all go, but it was for the best.

Authors Note: its another Emma chapter! you guys, this chapter is important. While I hate to make Ben a bad guy (as i truly don't believe he is), I wrote this to remind you of a very important issue. If you are ever in a relationship where you feel unsafe, uncomfortable, or unhappy continuously, YOU NEED TO CUT TIES! Even if it is as small as taking a break like in this chapter or going as far as removing that person from your life all together, it needs to happen. Never stay in an abusive relationship, whether it be verbal, physical, or mental bullying. I love all of you and care about you guys, so please take notice of the issue behind this imagine. Lots of love.
