Your POV

"Wait here, please." The uber driver nods as I open the door and run into the complex. I try to ignore the pounding headache as I stumble up the stairs. I open the the door to the apartment and hurry up the stairs without shutting the door. I swing open the room to my bedroom and burst into tears while I start packing all my belongings. Once I've checked the whole apartment for anything I might be missing, I leave my spare key on the bed and make my way back down to the uber.

"Where to now?"

"Airport."

It's quiet for the first ten minutes until we stop at a light. The driver looks into the rearview mirror. "Boyfriend?" He asks.

I shake my head as I twirl the ring on my finger. "Ex-boyfriend."

"Not trying to intrude, but if he's your ex, why are you still wearing the ring?"

I laugh a little, feeling as if I'm going insane. "It's not from him. It's from my fiance."

The driver frowns. "Listen, young lady, I have a daughter who reminds me of you. I've only seen her react to an ex like this after moving on because she wasn't over him. She's married to that man now and they're happier than ever. Are you sure you're making the right decision? I can turn around."

I stare at my ring. I slide it up and down my finger, hoping the answer will come to me.

"This is the right decision."

~Time skip~

As the car comes to a stop, I thank the driver and pull out my wallet.

"No need for that," he says. "You take care of yourself, young lady. I hope everything works out." I thank him again and get out.

Walking through the crowd, I feel a sense of deja vu. Last time I left London, I was running away from my problems here. And most importantly, running away to protect Dan. I shouldn't have done that to him. If I leave he'll blame himself and feel heartbroken. He just had the girl he loves and now she's running away again. But if I stayed I just know Jase won't react well and hurt us both. I couldn't burden him with my own guilt either.

I think of what the uber driver said. "Are you sure this is the right decision?" Neither decisions are the right decision. The right decision would to be to run far away from both Dan and Jase or jump into speeding traffic. Or maybe, if it were possible, reverse time and stop myself from coming back, or perhaps go back and run away with Dan instead of leaving him.

~Time skip~

I can't go back to Jase just yet. Instead, I instruct the uber driver to go straight to the only place in the world I want to be right now.

"Y/N? What are you doing back already?" Mark doesn't even give me enough time to walk through the door. He pulls me into his arms and hugs me tight.

"I never should have gone."

He pulls back and looks me in the eyes, looking very concerned. "What happened?"

I wipe away a stray tear and shake my head. "I'd rather not talk about it right now. I just wanted to come see you and Amy."

"Well, come in. We've both really missed you."

~Time skip~

The front door opens as I finish a second bottle of vodka. I slowly get off the couch and stumble towards the sound of footsteps.

"Y/N... you're back? Already?" Strangely Jase doesn't sound so excited.

"Yes, I missed you too much," I slur as he comes and wraps his arms around me. I stand on my tiptoes and kiss him. We pull away for a second. "I love you." Jase smiles and leans in for another kiss, more rough than before. I jump up and wrap my legs around his waist as I begin to unbutton his shirt.
