Alexis's POVI avoided Mason like the plague, after our fight at his place I went back to my apartment and parked a bag and headed back home to Palm Springs to my parents.I spent the next 2 weeks sulking at home, avoiding questions from my parents. And also avoiding Mason's calls and texts, but I'm finally going back to New York. I decided to accept the position in Switzerland, I mean it’s a good career move on my part and I also get to good with my researches so I should do it.I'll be moving there in 2 days, which technically is too fast but I can’t wait to get out of the country.It's what's best, I knew Mason didn't want a relationship when we started but like a fool I fell crazy and so in love with him.

Mason's POV Alexis left a month ago and I feel absolutely shitty about everything. It's totally my fault, can't even pretend that it isn't. She told me she had feelings for me and I freaked out and didn't say the right thing even though I knew how I felt for her but it's over now. And by the way she hates me now, I didn't say goodbye before she left. I called and texted her since she left but she hasn't returned any of my calls or texts and that's fine because I know I hurt her but nothing feels thesame without her. "This guy has been pissy all month, so I figured drinking may cheer him up." Nick says to Luke who just joined us at a bar I was forcefully dragged to. "I'm not pissy." I was beyond pissy. "If you pout any more, we're going to have to take drastic measures." Nick says again. I didn't even bother responding. Instead, I held up my middle finger and focus on drinking maybe it would give me something to take my mind off of how badly I'd screwed up. Nick and Luke had bee

I have had other boyfriends after Tommy ofcourse but it still never felt like how I felt for Tommy. He was perfect and I thought I loved him but having this feeling right now about Mason I know for sure it wasn't love what I had for Tommy, it was a crush or infatuation.Because what I feel for Mason is what I assume you call love, I love him so much it hurts. I can't sleep, eat, breathe or do anything without thinking about him. But most of all I do know for a fact that this is the worst heartbreak I've ever had.I keep replaying everything that happened between us in my head, the worst break up I've ever had but I can't even call it a break up because we were never actually in a relationship.I thought he felt somet

Alexis's POV Down the hall, standing by the door to my bedroom, was Mason. For the smallest fraction of a second, less time than it took to inhale a full breath of air, I got excited. I didn't care if he was there to tell me why Luke wasn't the perfect guy for me or lecture me about Luke. He was standing at my door, and that was everything. But then I remembered that I was mad at him, and the thrill faded. Mason has been but an emotional roller coaster for me. With a solemn expression and my eyes forward, I strutted toward my bedroom. Even as I refused to look at him, though, I saw him. On the surface, he looked composed and put together like he always did, but there was something today, he looks frazzled today. "That didn't take long," Mason said when I stopped at my door. So he thought I'd slipped away to sleep with Luke. I stepped into my room and he followed me in. He closed the door with his foot and trailed behind me. "Are you going to tell me anything?" he asked while
