Best Thing I Never Had - Sequel to 'Skinny love'

I turned up my radio, practically bustin the speakers. I turned off my car once I got to the place i was looking for. I locked my door as I walked through the tall doors. Music was playing, guys playing pool, couples at booths, and a couple of people like myself at the bar. 'Photograph' by Nicklback started playing around the pub and I sang along quietly. "Can I just have a beer?" I asked and the tender nodded. I felt someone sit beside me and I looked over and saw aTeenager sit beside me. "Your not 21" I laughed and He gave me a fake look of surprise. I laughed a little and he miled, turning to look at the people in the bar, drinking his beer. I got mine and turned with him.
"So, how old ARE you?" "19" He sighed and I nodded. "What're you doin' here?" He asked and I shrugged, sighing. "My life is screwed up" I looked outside and saw a ton of people walking about. "Same here" He took another drink of beer. "I don't even know what to do" I sat my head back and He nodded. He nuddged my arm and told me my phone was ringing. I looked down at it and saw Chad's face pop up. I ignored it and asked for another beer.

"What would you do if you loved 2 people at the same time?" I asked, looking at the clock. It was now 5 hours, 21 missed calls, and 50 unread messages later. "Kid, your young, just go with the flow." The bar tender said and I sat my head down on the bar. "But the flow means leaving your life behind" I mummbled and he lened on the counter. He was a 40 year-old guy, sensible, and blunt. "Then that's not thw flow. Maybe you should just take a break for a while" I pulled out my phone, turning it off when I had another call coming in. "Thank You" I smiled and jumped off the stool. I got outside and found my car, going to it. I stopped in my tracks once I saw who was standing their, leaning against the passenger side. "What do you want, Niall?" I sighed, drunk, and mad. "Well, your boyfriend keeps calling me asking where you were and I as just driving around trying to find you and I happened to see your car here." "Just go away, Okay? I have some things I need to deal with". He got off the car coming towards me. "You should know that I never meant to hurt you, I just.. We had worked so hard to get where we were and I didn't want to throw that away just for.." "..Some girl, right?" I rolled my eyes and he came closer. "Niall... You said it yourself.. Were done" I laughed cold heartedly, backing up. "I don't want to be done, Maci. Would you let me explain?" "You explained enough in your letter, I get exactly what you mean" I turned around, walking back to my car. I felt like, for once, I had made the right decision. I unlocked my door and got in, speeding off in the direction of my house.
~~
I walked through the door and saw Chad sitting their, asleep on the couch. I walked to our room in the back of the house. I grabbed my bag from our closet, feeling the tears falling freely from my face, like a waterfall. I took a minute to wipe away every single one of them. I grabbed all my clothes, stuffing them into my suitcase first. I then grabbed my shampoo, shaving cream, conditioner, Razor, toothbrush, face wash and throwing them into my bag. I then grabbed anything else I needed and threw it in their along with everything else. I ended up having to use 2 bags. I thre the bags over my shoulder and threw them in my trunk. I walked back in to get my purse, when I heard Chad wake up. "Maci, Where are you going?" He asked coming to the door as I was walking out of it, following me to my car. I got in the car and shut the door, tears falling down my face. "Listen Chad, this has nothing to do with us or you it is all me and my messed up life and you don't deserve that right now." "Are you breaking up with me?" "I'm not going to sugar coat it so yea, I just need some time away from everything right now and You don't deserve this" "I can help you Mace, I don't have to go, we can stay here" I shook me head, backing out of the drive way. I mouthed a 'sorry' to him and drove. I had no idea where I was going at this point, but just driving.
