"I can't be fixed anymore cause I'm no more broken but I'm fragmented ,"

Bree's pov.
I hear my door creak open and dig my face deeper into my pillow. It's been three days since Aiden broke up with me.

I haven't cried since then nor did I sleep or eat anything.

"Bree," I hear Ricky's voice and look up to see him.

"Please leave me alone Rick," I beg him . It's graduation day and I'm not going .

"I'm not going Rick, "I repeat again and sit up in bed.

"Bree shut up and listen to me!" He yells at me. He never behaved like this before.

"Aiden's leaving the country with his parents..." he trails off and my eyes widen.

" I spoke to him... he loves you Bree. He's leaving because of his father. His father is suffering from cancer and is going to die within two years," he says and I sit there frozen.

"Aiden promised to go with his dad and take over the family bussiness before his dad dies. His father asked him to break up with you cause he thinks you're a distraction for Aiden, " Ricky says looking at me.

"Aiden loves you Bree and is as broken as you are," he says and I get off my bed. I need to meet Aiden now.

"Where are you going? " Ricky asks me.

"I need to tell him that I love him Rick. I can't lose him no matter what," I say getting out of my room.

Ricky comes right behind me ," I'm driving you to Aiden, " he says and grabs my car keys.

I silently nod and we get out of the house. Ricky takes the driver seat and I sit in the passenger seat.

Aiden loves me.

"Ricky what time is his flight?" I ask him. I was getting impatient by every passing second .

"In an hour," he says and drives faster.

I could feel tears forming in my eyes but I blink them away.

"Thank you so much Rick, " I say and a sob escapes my lips.

"I can do anything for you guys," he says with a small smile.

My phone starts ringing. It's Jackson.

"Jackson, " I say wiping my tears away with the back of my hand.

"Kitty where are you?" He asks me.

"I'm going to Aiden. He....he loves me Jackson," I say and couldn't stop my tears from rolling down.

"Who's with you?" He asks me.

"Ricky is driving me," I say .

"Call me once you talk to him Kitty and please take care," he says with concern in his voice.

"Will do. Bye Jackson, " I say and drop the call.

One step closer.

I close my eyes and take deep breaths. I love you Aiden. Please don't leave me.

My head starts aching. I hold my head in my hands and cry.

"Bree are you alright? " I hear Ricky ask.

"Yeah I'm fine. It's....it's just that my head is aching," I say stuttering on my words.

But that was not it , I feel weak and my hand hurts . I take the bottle of water and gulp down on some water.

"Are you sure that you're fine?" Ricky asks with concern.

"I'm fine Rick. Just drive," I say and drink more water.

Ricky drives faster . I relax on the seat and tears roll down as I think of Aiden.

Why did he lie to me? I don't know why but I felt weak at the moment. I felt so broken when Aiden said those words but now I know that he didn't mean any of it.

"Bree everything's going to be alright, " Ricky says squeezing my hand and I give him a weak smile.

"I'm scared Rick," I say and close my eyes letting the tears fall freely.

Ricky doesn't say anything and continues driving. There's nothing that he could do. It's my fate that I always lose the people I love.

I don't want to lose Aiden. Not after I know that he loves me too.

"Rick, why couldn't he tell me the truth? " I ask him .

"He loves you Bree and he knew that if he tells you the truth, you'll fight for him," Ricky says and I nod.

I could see the airport and smile a little.

One step closer.

As we got closer tears blurred my vision but I wipe them away. Did Aiden know I was coming?

"Does he know that I'm coming? " I ask Ricky.

"No," Ricky says as we enter the airport.

He parks the car and I hope out of the car. I feel a little giddy but shake my head ignoring it . Ricky comes right behind me.

"Where to first?"I ask him and he points out at a direction.

We start searching for Aiden and his parents. Tears roll down as I find him no where.

"This way!" Ricky shouts over the crowd and I follow him.

Come out Aiden. I need to talk to you .

The world around me starts spinning and I grab onto the wall for support. I shake it off and continue searching for him.

"Rick!" I call out as I feel my body giving up.

"Bree!" He shouts and comes running towards me.

"Please find him," I say getting breathless .

"Bree, what's happening to you? " Ricky asks me and my legs give up making me fall down.

Ricky grabs me before I could crash to the ground.

"Aiden..."I trail off as I see him and feel a boost of energy.

One step closer.

I stand up forcefully and run towards Aiden.

"Bree stop!" Ricky yells behind me. Before I could call out to Aiden, everything goes blank around me and fall to the ground.

I felt Ricky grab me in his arms and hear a few gasps before I completely lose consciousness.

I didn't get around to kiss you
Goodbye on the hand
I wish that I could see you again
I know that I can't

Oh
I hope you can hear me
'Cause I remember it clearly

The day you slipped away
Was the day I found it won't be the same

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Does she know?" I hear someone's voice or rather Rachel's.

"No,she doesn't. I don't know how she would react," I hear Ricky say.

My head hurts but I open my eyes to see that I'm in my room. Aiden.

Where is he? I went to get him back , right?

I sit up suddenly in my bed but fall back. Ricky rushes to my side.

"Where's Aiden? "I ask him and slowly sit up.

He doesn't answer. I ask him again "Rick, where is he? " .

"He...he's gone," Rachel says coming up next to Ricky. Maria and Brad join them .

"Wha....what do you mean by he's gone?" I ask hoping that I heard something wrong.

"He left the country Bree," Ricky says and a tear rolls down my face.

I've had my wake up
Won't you wake up
I keep asking why
And I can't take it
It wasn't fake
It happened, you passed by

Now you're gone, now you're gone
There you go, there you go
Somewhere I can't bring you back
Now you are gone, now you are gone
There you go, there you go,
Somewhere you're not coming back

All of them stand there staring at me. I could find any words to say anything.

Ricky gives me a glass of water and I have it.

Aiden left.

More tears roll down my eyes and I hug Ricky. He was the only one who knew what I was going through.

"Aiden...left," I say and sob into his shoulder.

After a few minutes, I calm down and catch Rachel staring at me.

"I think we should tell her," Maria says and I look at her. Tell me what?

"What is it?" I ask them.

"You're....." Maria starts but trails off.

That's when Rachel decided on talking, "You're.....pregnant, ".

Stayed in bed all morning just to pass the time
There's something wrong here, there can be no denying
One of us is changing, or maybe we've stopped trying

And it's too late, baby, now it's too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I can't hide
And I just can't fake it

It used to be so easy living here with you
You were light and breezy and I knew just what to do
Now you look so unhappy, and I feel like a fool

And it's too late, baby, now it's too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I can't hide
And I just can't fake it

There'll be good times again for me and you
But we just can't stay together, don't you feel it too
Still I'm glad for what we had, and how I once loved you

But it's too late, baby, it's too late
Though we really did try to make it
Something inside has died and I can't hide

Hey lovelies,
So this is it! Do you hate me? I would rather not ask that question.

I thank all my readers for making my book so successful. I know that our relationship is not cut off over here cause most of you will be reading my upcoming books.

What do you guys think? Did you get enough of "The reason "? How many of you want to know what would happen next cause I may have not decided on a sequel yet.

{Key word being 'may'}

Did you get an answer for the question I asked you guys in the description?

Do you think Aiden's reason for leaving Bree was fair enough?

So as I promised you guys, there is is a surprise for all of you but you've gotta be patient .

Till then you know what to do vote, comment and share!

Maybe I'll get more comments this time!

Love ya'll,
- this_is_her.......😘
