Carter's POV:

2 days. 2 days since I'd told her to go. To leave. Leave me. I didn't want to. God that was the last thing I'd ever do but I had no other choice. He had given me no other choice. Annabelle was all id ever wanted and having her was something I never thought would happen to me but losing her hurts more than words can express. Knowing I hurt her in any way makes me sick but she was going to get hurt whatever option I chose. Im sure that she was going to tell me she loved me when she came round and I would have enjoyed hearing those words come out of her soft lips every minute of every day. God I wish I could change this. I want her back. If only she knew I didn't mean for any of this. That I care for her more than anything. That I even love her maybe? Damn.

The look in her eyes had torn me apart. He told me I couldn't have her or else we would both suffer. I would choose her over anything. How could I call this guy my friend? When he was so willing to screw me over like it was nothing.

Matt was meant to be my friend. Just because I had what he wanted and it wasn't even like she wanted him, was it? She did go home with him? Maybe she was waiting for me to be out of the way? I know he was. Danny always knew Matt had a thing for his sister so was quite unbothered and they weren't as close as we were. Maybe they were meant to be. Maybe this was the path that was meant to happen to ensure their happiness. As long as she was happy. But why couldn't it be with me?

I could get over her, after all she was just one girl. One that left a lasting impression. I don't even know what I was going to do if Danny had ever found out, what he would have done if he found out. That was a lie. It was not a matter of if but when. How could I get over someone so perfect? I was Carter Reins and that's how. Being Carter Reins allowed Annabelle to keep sneaking back into my heart however. Damn that girl.

This was too much. I couldn't even focus on the shouting going on between my parents downstairs because my mind was filled with thoughts of Annabelle. The way she hid her face when she blushed, creased her face when she was embarrassed in her oh so sexy way and her beautiful smile that hypnotised me instantaneously could fill any room with happiness. I walked over to the punching bag hanging from my ceiling and taped up my fists. I needed to get this anger out. I couldn't change anything now. Punch. She was no longer mine. Punch. Maybe soon she would be his. Punch. The girl with chocolate eyes. Punch. That I would never have. Punch. Matt or Danny would forever be in the way. Punch. This. Punch. Was. Punch. Meant. Punch. To . Punch. Be.

The bag broke to the floor.
