And it's true...the fact of the matter is, these girls have done nothing but complicate both our lives. And the longer we stay with them, the worse it will get.
My heart kick starts as my mind flashes back to all the good things about Lou-Lou.
Even though she hurt me...I just can't bring myself to say that being with her wasn't worth it.
Everything about her was and will always be worth it.
She challenged me daily, sure. But she also loved me fiercely, with each and every one of her broken pieces.
Hell, her broken pieces filled in my own broken fragments, putting me together for the very first time in my life.
He shakes his head. "No. She's special. I can't let it end like this."

I know how he can fix this. Because I fought for Lou-Lou once and it worked. And I'll be damned if I'm not going to fight for her one more time.
I stand up. "Then do what you do best." When he gives me a weird look I say, "Fight for her, dummy."
He scans the living room until his eyes fall on what I can only assume is Alyssa's purse.
I can't help but smile, because he's got the perfect excuse to go see her now.
I'm still smiling...until he utters his next statement.
"I need another favor."
"What's up?"
"Can I borrow your car?"
I pace back and forth in front of her door and check my watch.
2am...and she's still not home.
I call her phone again but all I get is her voicemail. Maybe it's dead?
I call Emilio's phone again, but his goes to voicemail too.
With not many options left, I pull out my key and enter her apartment. I drag a chair over to her front door and sit.
I'll give her a few more hours to get the fuck back home.
After that, I'm taking matters into my own hands.
