Description: Bay has to face facts; while she loves Emmett he still might love someone more. She wouldn't wanna be the one to keep him from being happy just so she can smile (that's what I call TRUE LOVE)

I do not own ANYTHING that has to do with the show Switched at Birth….sad I know..

Author's Notes: Hey wanted to say a few things first. YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME! Just wanted to let you know that oh and I might be moving the rating up for the next chapters after this one. I hope you guys are okay with that. Okay well enjoy the chapter; I know I really liked writing it.

Bay's POV

Taking a deep breath Bay turned around preparing herself for the worst. After all this time she still wasn't ready for what was about to come next.

Emmett's POV

He wanted to see Bay and he had a feeling he knew where she'd be, he had heard about a hot girl from his friends that always seemed to go to the park by Carlton lately. Stopping his bike he saw Bay on the swing she uses to make him push her on whenever they came here. Remember he smiled of the time he spent with her. ~Does she really wanna end this. If she does why can't she even tell me, she stops talking to me all of a sudden….did I do something wrong. ~

The first thing he noticed when Bay turned around was her swollen eyes and tear stained face. ~Why? Why was she crying if she really has no feelings for me and wants to end us~ But he never believed she really did and that was partly why he was still there. There was also something inside of him that just couldn't give her up. "Daphne like's you" Bay signed everything that came next and while Emmett tried to stop her at times, wanting to make sense of it all, she stopped him and continued on with her obviously prepared speech. "I know you like her and the only reason I've been hiding from you was only because I didn't know how to let you go. But I have to …I have to for you it'll make you happy and that's all I want. That's all I'll ever want. So tell her how you feel because my 'sister' deserves to be happy too." Bay softly kissed him on his cheek before turning towards her car and leaving him behind. He wanted to tell her she was it for him but he didn't know if she'd listen. It always seemed something was getting in their way trying to tear them apart. Was love really this difficult? He didn't know all he could think was he wanted her back but he had no clue how he'd be able to get her this time.

Bay's POV

Bay wanted to run she wanted to run right into Emmett's arms but she knew this was for the best. He wanted to be with Daphne he always has and now that she realizes her own feelings did she really have any right to ruin that. Bay cried again for hours in her car, until she trusted herself to drive again. ~I'm doing the right thing, even if I love him….NO because I love him I have to do what's best for him. This is what's best for him, right? ~

Bay walked in to a quiet house that night hoping no one would see her tear stained face as she tried to quietly retreat to her cumphy unmade bed. Closing her door safely behind her she turned her iPod on repeat playing- don't let me go by The Summer Set- She thought it explained her mood perfectly at the moment. After changing into something more conferrable Bay got to work. She removed things that reminded her of Emmett, seeing them every day would only hurt more. Her drawings of him, the scarf, especially the copy of the picture he had taken of them at the junk yard all had to go. But not having the stomach to actually destroy them she decided to take a old box and stuff everything in the back of the hallway closet among other things no one every used. –She saw Lorelai do this in one of her favorite episodes of The Gilmore Girls and always thought it would be good to use if she ever lost someone she really love-

Collapsing back onto her bed Bay listened to the same track repeat a few more times before drifting into a dream of the day Bay was with Emmett kissing him on the grass. This time there was no Daphne shrine or text to ruin their night. He was there with her and at least in her dreams she was truly happy.

Emmett's POV

Bay didn't know it but across town Emmett was doing the exactly the same thing as her only a different scene kept replaying in his mind. 'But I love you Bay I need you. Turn around! Turn around and look at me' But before he could run after her capture her in her arms and swearing to never let go, she was gone. Leaving him forever.

The next morning Emmett woke up in a cold sweat remembering his dream vividly. His mom was luckily out when he got in last night. There was a note on the table something about 'dinner…and…Regina' He didn't pay much attention he just wanted to get to his room. Balling up the paper and tossing it into the kitchen trash he slammed his door still frustrated and furious with Bay ~Was she really just gonna live, was she really ending this before then ever really had a chance to start.~ What she was saying to him didn't even make sense. Yes he understood everything she signed but the words and their meaning ….he was sure she was wrong about something. She got her signing wrong or her information wrong. He didn't care he just knew something was seriously wrong. ~What was she even talking about, Daphne liking me? Even if that was possible; even if that was true who said I cared for her in that way any longer. Daphne is my best friend so of course I love her but I'm falling in love with Bay. No. I'm already in love with her.~ Looking at his swollen eyes in the bathroom mirror he remembered the tears that fell last night as he looked at the smiling Bay his camera captured of them together. ~I have to talk to her. I have to see her again!~

Emmett was stopped by bags placed at the door. Trying to think if his dad had left anything behind he turned to his mom who was in the kitchen sipping her morning coffee 'Did dad forget something' He asked hesitantly. His mother smiled brightly shaking her head 'No it's all gone. Those are ours' She pointed to the two bags placed by the door. Not quite understanding and not in the mood for any more surprises he asked her what was going on. 'Oh didn't I tell you. We're going camping with Bay and Daphne's family this weekend' He just stared at his mother wondering if it was possible for his life to get any more complicated.

Author: Hi everyone! I know this is kinda a sad chapter But I don't believe it will stay like this I DO believe in Bemmett and that they will overcome this. Hey how much easier will the whole hearing and Deaf drama seem after this
