A/N Forgive me for what's about to happen.

-TW ANGST-

-3rd Pov-

Travis: "There's been a change of plans ash, thank you for all your help."

-Sal's pov-

I stood in front of Travis. I practiced so much! I want him to know that I care.

I put my hands up.

"I love you Travis."

He stared at me blankly, he smiled...

"Maybe you do care Sal." He said. I stared at him, wide eyes. He can speak now? How?

"Don't just stand there you idiot" he said

I straightened my act and cleared my throat.

"Travis, I don't know how many times I've said it but I really do love you! And I can't stop saying it. I didn't mean what I said Travis, I was just scared... I didn't want to fuck things up but I still ended up doing it. I'm really sorry Travis. I don't know if you'll ever forgive me but please do. I promise I can be better to you. I just really fucking love you!"

What I said sounded kind of out of character for me, but fuck, I was really nervous, I looked up at Travis. He stared blankly... I couldn't read his expression. Is this how people see me? Fuck.

I looked closer, I could kinda tell what he was feeling. He looked unsure.

I might still have a chance. He opened his mouth to say something. He stopped and walked closer to me. This brings back memories. I didn't back up this time, I was ready for whatever was about to happen.

He stopped and stared at me, he looked straight into my eyes, I'm so fucking glad he couldn't see my expression right now... that's all this prosthetic is good for... hiding everything. People don't have to know how I feel...

"Travis?" I asked.

He didn't respond.

Stupid fucking silence...

He reached into his pocket. I was really nervous... I backed up a little but he didn't react.

He just pulled out a note. Fuck. More memories...

He put his hand out and backed up aswell. I hesitantly took the note. I unfolded it and could hear his footsteps. I looked up for just a second, you couldn't really tell though since it was only my eye. He was walking away.

Just like that...

He was gone.

I looked back at the note, holding back tears, nobody could see me anyways so I don't know why I don't just let them fall. Must be a habit.

I didn't like how the note looked at all.. the first few words made me sick. I didn't want to read the full note but I still did...

The note fell from my hands. I needed to sit down. I stumbled to the closest bench and sat down. I calmed my breathing and looked ahead of me.
