Thirty minutes later and I was sitting with on Christopher Daniel's couch, clinging to him as I cried harder then I ever had before. When he picked me up he hadn't asked any questions. He saw me shaking and crying, and picked me up and brought me here. The apartment was dark, he hadn't bothered to turn on any lights.
After another 20 minutes or so my tears started to slow.
"You gonna be okay?" Daniels ask, chasing some tears off my face with his thumb.
I just shook my head no, and buried my head deeper into his chest.
"Come on. Lets get you in something comfy." He said, once again picking me up and carrying me to his bedroom. As he went through his drawers I sat on the bed. I rubbed my eyes to see better, only to see the picture of me AJ and Chris out drinking for my birthday a few months bad.
I started sobbing again, as I looked at AJ holding me close to him, the goofy paper party hat half falling of his head.
Daniels abandoned what he was doing to come check on me.
"Whats wrong sweetie?" He asked getting down on his knee's in front of me.
I raised a shaky hand to point at the picture, before managing to say through sobs "I...I screwed...screwed everything up."
"Phili what are you talking about?" Daniels asked, looking back at the picture but not understanding what I was saying.
"He... He was gonna propose. But I...I screwed it up. He...He kicked me out... He hates me... They all do."
Daniels didnt say another word, just pulled me into a huge hug. I wrapped my arms around his neck and clung for dear life.
"I will always love you." He whispered in my ear.
And for some reason that only made me sob harder.
When Daniels finally let go of me, he said he would be right back, and left the bedroom closing the door behind him.

I turned on the kitchen light and grabbed my cell of the counter. I flipped it open and looked through my contacts list till I found the number I was looking for.
---
"Talk to me D Man" The deep southern drawl of Jame Storm came through on the other end.
"I need your help." I said flatly.
"Whats going on. Oh god, AJ didnt do anything did he?" James asked, his voice suddenly concerned.
"He's fine. For the moment. After I get my hands on him it may be another story tho..." I trailed off.
"Dude. What. Explain. Now."
"Phili came back. I dont know why but she did. She went to see AJ, but he kicked her out. I don't know what happened, she wont stop crying."
"Where do I come in then?" James asked, sounding confused.
"I need to go talk to AJ. I need someone here to stay with her."
"Alright, I'll be there in a few. Chris is with me, so I guess we'll both be coming."
"Thanks a lot man." I said, before hanging up the phone.
--------
I walked back into the bedroom, only to find Phili curled up under the covers, fast asleep, with the picture from my night stand clung tight to her chest. I couldn't bring myself to wake her, so instead I went back into the main room and waited for James and Chris to show up.
It didn't take that long, they probably ran every red light and stop sign to get here in ten minutes, but I didn't press the subject.
I just nodded to them, and walked out the door.

JAMES POV

"He was always so talkative" I laughed to Chris. Chris chuckled as well, before plopping down on the couch.
"I'ma go check on Phili" I said, not waiting for an answer as I slowly opened the door to Daniels bedroom.
Phili was curled up in a ball under the covers, clinging to something I couldn't see. I walked over the the bed and ran my hand down her arm. Her eyes opened, and she started to back away from me.
"Shh... Shh... its okay. Its just me..." I said, trying to comfort her.
"James? Where... where did Chris go."
"He...um, had something he had to take care of." I said, breaking eye contact momentarily.
"So whats going on with you girly? Last time I saw you, you were all smiles"
Tears started coming from her eyes, so i crawled into the bed next to her to try and comfort her.
"Just tell me what happened. It'll make you feel so much better, i promise."
"Petey hates me. AJ hates me. I lost everything." She said, as she wrapped her arms around me.
"Bullshit. There is no way those two could ever hate you."
"Its not that hard to hate a cruel, selfish, heartless bitch like me." She said, as more tears started to flow.
"Dont you ever... EVER think that about yourself." I said sternly.
"Now what happened"
"Petey tried to kill himself. I went to see him in the hospital...he wouldn't even look at me James. If I didnt try to hide anything, this never would have happened. It would all be okay. But I was to selfish."
I couldnt think of anything to say, so I let her go on.
"I thought... I thought everyone would be better off if I just left. So I did.But... I didnt have anywhere to go. So i went to the shack. Andy was there... he told me how he liked me, and thats why he drove me away. He was scared. Just like me. And that made me see how stupid I was being. I went to go see AJ, but he was just so angry. He... he..." She started sobbing before she finished.
"He what sweetie?" I asked.
"He was gonna propose. But he thinks I cant handle a relationship... He kicked me out... I lost it all." She said, before completely breaking down.
"Sweetie, its gonna be okay. I promise."

"WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM!" I screamed, as AJ opened the door.
"What are you talking about?" He asked
"You know damn well what I am talking about! Phili's at my apartment balling her eyes out on my couch, and you dont seem to give a damn!"
"She's on your couch? Ouch. She wont be out of there for at least a week, and whatever you do, DON'T kiss her. It'll just turn out bad in the end." He said, turning his back to me.
"You son of a bitch" I growled, before tackling him to the ground.
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR?" He asked as he tried to get.
"Someone needs to knock some sense into your dumbass, to make you see that you are letting the best thing to ever happen to you just walk out the door!" I screamed
"The best thing that ever happened to me? Getting my heart ripped out is considered a plus nowadays?" He yelled back.
"She was confused AJ! And you know of all people know how rough she has had it these past few years! Now be a man and go apologize!"
"I NEED TO APOLOGIZE? For what? Apologize that SHE left me like it was no big deal. Apoloize that I treated her like royalty and was there for her every waking moment, and then she just give it all up?"
"GOD DAMNIT AJ! Stop being so stubborn! You love her, and you know it! Don't screw this up!" I yelled
"I used to love her. Now get out of my apartment."
DAMN YOU AGAIN AJ! But yay for James and Chris, and Daniels.
