"Harry, please tell me why you are upset." I beg him again, but keep calm.

"I'm worthless, Aubrey!" He says.

I have no idea what he is talking about, but it kills me that he thinks of himself like this.

"What? Of course you're not, Harry!"

"You have to say that, you're my girlfriend." He snaps and leans against the wall, throwing his head back and groans again.

"Harry, I'm really confused. Why are you saying this?"

I walk over to him and take his hands, but he pulls away. I know he's just frustrated, so I don't take it personally. I hold his waist in hopes it will calm in down.

"Because it's the truth."

"But I mean why are you saying this now? What did you and your dad talk about?"

"I dropped two of my classes and he yelled at me."

"You dropped two classes! Why did you do that?" I'm shocked. He's only taking five, so he needs all the credits.

"I don't need you to yell at me too." He snaps and walks away from me before sitting on the bed again.

"I'm not... I'm just confused. Harry, I don't understand why you are acting like this. Will you please talk to me! I can't help you if you don't let me in!"

"You can't help me, Aubrey! That's the point! I'm worthless, and everyone around me is successful or going to be successful! I'm going no where in my life!"

"Is that what you think? Harry, you're one of the smartest people I know, don't say this. Just because you don't know what you want to do, it doesn't mean you're not going anywhere! A lot of people don't know what they want to be when they start school." I tell him and take a seat next to him.

Why can't I get through to him? I feel terrible that he feels this way.

"There is absolutely nothing I'm good at. I'm just fucking here, no fucking purpose." He shakes his head.

"That song I sang last night, totally describes me." He laughs. "I'm pathetic, Aubrey."

"No you're not."

"Stop trying to make me feel better, you know it's true! Just because you're going to be a doctor, doesn't mean you can fix me!" He stands up and slams his palm against the wall. "Why do you even keep me around? I'm going no where, and you could probably find a nice guy who's going to be a doctor just like you."

"Harry, stop! I don't know what's gotten into you, but you need to calm down!"

I'm mortified by what he's saying. I don't even know if it's possible for me to calm him down.

"What? You know it's true... We'll stay together until graduation, then you'll realize I'm no good and go find yourself a successful doctor to marry. You deserve better than me."

"How could you even think that? If you don't remember, I moved all the way across the world just to make things work for us! I did it because I love you, and I don't ever want to be away from you." My frustration begins to build.

"So now you're going to make me feel guilty for you moving here? You thought I'd be worth it, but guess what, I'm not. So you can go back to Stanford now that you know I'm not going to be successful like you, or my father, my mum or my friends..."

"Harry! I came here because I love you! I love you for who you are, I don't care about what you do, hell, drop out of college, I don't care! I'll still love you!" I feel the tears prick in my eyes as I yell. His eyes are cold and hold no emotion.

"Yeah right." He laughs.

"What the hell is your problem? Is this why you've been acting different all week? Because you think you're worthless?" I ask him, all of the pieces starting to come together.

"Ding, ding, we have a winner! Damn took you long enough Dr. Flynn!"

"You're being a jerk." I shake my head and wipe the tear from my eye.

"Well how do you think I felt when you had to rub your future in my face? Those fucking kids you met at the party? Talking about school with my friends and with Liam's dad? Did you want me to feel worse about myself?" He narrows his eyes at me.

"You have got to be kidding me. Is that what you think I was doing? Harry, you're delusional! Am I not allowed to talk about my education in front of you?" I snap.

"I don't give a fuck what you do, Aubrey."

He becomes quiet and pulls his shirt over his head before changing into a new one. He grabs his gray beanie and puts it on. I stand there in silence waiting for him to apologize or talk, do anything really.

"You know, I moved here for us, Harry. I thought you wanted us to work out, But if I'm the only one who cares about making this work, than I should just go back home." I tell him, and he doesn't even bother to look at me when he speaks.

"It was you're idea to come here, I never made you... You know, I actually recall telling you not to come."

"Wow." I shake my head in disbelief.

"Yeah, so maybe you should go back home... Seriously. We both knew this wasn't going to last forever." He raises his voice again.

My cheeks are covered in tears, and I'm at the point of breaking. I can't believe this is actually happening, I don't even know how it started. Why is he acting like this? What happened to my sweet, caring Harry? I don't know what has gotten into him since we moved here, but I certainly don't like it.

I want to say something to him, but I can't think of anything. I grab my sweater from the bed and slam the door behind me as I leave. I want to be anywhere but here.

I sort of hoped he would stop me before I left, but he didn't.



"Aubrey, what just happened? Sweetie, are you okay?" Gran's eyes are wide when she sees me come downstairs with tears running down my face.

"I will be, I'm sorry about Harry.. Im gonna go out for a bit." I tell her and give her a quick hug before grabbing Harry's keys and leaving.


I drive to Liam's house, because I don't know where else to go. I don't even know what I should be thinking or doing, I'm still trying to wrap my head around what just happened.

"I think he broke up with me." I wipe my eyes as I explain my morning to Liam.

"No, he's just going through a rough time. Aubrey, I'm sure he just took his anger out on you. I know for a fact he would never break up with you."

"You should've seen him, Liam. I've never seen him like that! He was so angry and cold..."

"Aubs, It'll be okay. He just needs some time..." He hugs me and rubs my back for comfort.

"I don't know what to do Liam... The things he said to me were terrible, whether it was out of anger or not." I cry into his shoulder.

It's just starting to hit me. I can't be done with Harry? Not after everything that we've been through... Not after I left everything back home to move here with him!

"You can hang out here for a bit while he settles down. I know him, he's going to realize he was an ass and apologize."

"Thanks, Liam." I force a smile.

"Anytime. Look, I don't know everything he said, but I'm sure he didn't mean to hurt you... I know how much he loves you, and it would kill him to lose you."

"He seemed so serious though, Liam. I don't know what to do..."

I'm interrupted by my cell phone ringing, but I ignore it so I'm not rude to Liam.

"What if it's Harry?" Liam looks at me.

He's right. I pull my phone from my pocket, and I get disappointed when it's only my dad.

"You can answer it, I'll go get us something to drink." Liam says before leaving the room.


"Hey dad! I miss you." I say when I answer. I've talked to him everyday since I left to check up on him and my mom, but I still miss them like no other.

"Hey sweetie." His voice is shaky.

"Dad? Is everything okay?"
