Was it love or all a lie?

Chapter 8

*4:30am*

Ross's POV/

I woke up. Weird. Why did I wake up so early? I tried going back to sleep but it wasn't working. I then decided to go downstairs to get a glass of milk since it'll help me go back to sleep. I got out of bed and walked out of my room. As I do I then see Laura's door wide open. Is she downstairs? I then shrug it off and head downstairs. I didn't see her. Huh? Where is she? I grab a glass of milk and drink it up. As I do I see a note on the dinner table. Hmm... wonder what it says. I pick it up and began to read.

Dear Lynch family,

I am so sorry for ruining your family. I should have never intruded your family and I am deeply sorry. As you're reading this I am probably far away now. Yup, I ran away. I just couldn't bare the hurt I was feeling. I'm sorry but I just had too. Don't bother looking for me, you'll just wasting your time. Please don't look for me, please. I had a fun time being in your family for a bit but that was never meant to last. I'm sorry and goodbye everyone. I'll miss you :'(
P.S I hope you're happy Ross. You got what you wanted.

I couldn't believe this. I ran upstairs to her room and checked her closet. All her clothes are gone. She's really gone. I cried. I sat down on the floor hugging my knees and rocking back and forth. This is all my fault. Bc of me being an idiot she's gone. She's really gone and I'm the cause of it. It's all my fault. It's all my fault. I guess I was crying to loud bc my family ran in Laura's room comforting me and asking what's wrong. I couldn't speak and gave them the note. They all read it.
