This chapter is dedicated to: RobandBri, girlz-rule, 5t4c3y!

Last time on On The Line:

Pro: I still love her more than she will ever know.

Con: She doesn't love me.

Pro: She's just her and that's the best thing about her.

Con: There is none, she's just perfect in my mind.

Pro: Our love was great, no lies. It was wonderful being in love with you. You always made me feel wanted and always supported me.

Con: I've never fallen out of our love yet. It's been a whole year and I wish I could fall for someone else, but you're the only one, in my mind, will always be right for me.

Pro: Your kisses and hugs, the way you make me smile and laugh, the way you chuckle quietly in my ear. I love the way I feel around you.

Con: I hate that I still love you so much after what you've done.

Andie's POV:

"So he still loves you?" Sophie asks.

"Yeah, he says I'm perfect."

"Aww, that is so romantic!"

"I don't know what to do about him..."

"Love him back?"

"I really want to, it's just I can't get myself to do it."

"Andie, if you wait any longer...he's gonna be taken off the boy market."

"Boy market? Sophie, we're not in high school anymore."

"You sure act like you still do." She mutters under her breath.

"I love him, I do. But, I don't want to get hurt anymore."

"Andie, then go get him! Getting hurt is a thing everybody experiences in life, you can't avoid it."

"I don't know..."

"Do you like Chase as a friend?"

"Definitely."

"As more than a friend?"

"Yeah, the attraction is there."

"Do you love him?"

"Yes."

"Can you see yourself 20 years from now with him?"

"Yeah."

"Then, why are you still here?"

"Why did you ask all those questions?"

"You're still obviously in love with him and you just admitted it."

"How? I didn't even say anything."

"Really? You said there was an attraction between you guys and you liked him more than a friend."

"Yeah, so?"

"You also said you loved him and you also said you could see yourself in future with him...is that love or what?"

"I guess..."

"Andie, you're the biggest party pooper EVER! He loves you! And you're sitting here moping, why? You have a great guy and you're dumping him as soon as you can...why? You tell me you love him, so are you willing to stand by and let him find another girl?"

"No..."

"Then go find him and tell him you love him!"

"I..."

"I what? I am stupid! Is that what you want to be? I what? I am ignorant! Why? Because you won't do what your heart is telling you to do. I what? I think with my head, not my heart! I what? I might lose the only guy who loves me more than I know! Andie, listen to what I just said and please, please go find him!"

"You're right, I have to find him before he's too late!"

"What are you still doing here?"

"Oh, right!" I head to the door and run out to my car, driving downtown to Chase's hotel. Only 3 hours left...till I can tell him I love him. I love him. I love Chase Collins.

Chase's POV:

"So you told her you loved her?" Cable asks.

"Yeah, I said she was perfect."

"Dude, you need to move on...she already did."

"I can't...I love her."

"Why is it so hard to let go of her?"

"Because you can't leave someone who still has your heart."

"Aww...that's so corny, Chase!" Cable says sarcastically.

"I love her, I can't leave her...not for her, but for me."

"Does she even like you?"

"I guess not..."

"Does she even want to look or talk to you?"

"She's always trying to get away from me..."

"Does she love you as much you love her?"

"She said she still loved me, but I'm not sure."

"Don't you see, Chase? You're wasting time on her when she won't even budge from her comfort zone! She doesn't love you, not as much as you love her and that isn't enough for you."

"How do you know it isn't enough for me?"

"Chase, you don't deserve that, you're too good for that. She will eventually feel the same way, but when? You can't wait around forever, maybe it's time to move on."

"Move on? How can you even say that?"

"Chase, she doesn't love you! You know how lovesick you sound? She doesn't freakin' love you! That's all there is to it. You're better than this, you can't always be there...maybe the attraction and bond you once had isn't there anymore."

"What if it is still there?"

"You can't live your life with what-ifs."

"You're probably right...if she doesn't love me now, then when will she ever love me?"

"So what are you going to do?"

"Give her what she wants."

"Which is?"

"I'll leave her alone and pretend what happened these past few weeks and in the past year never happened."

"So I'm guessing we're going back to London?"

"Yeah, better get packing now..."

"It'll be the best for the both of you."

"Yeah, it will."

I'll always love her, but it'll never be the same...

Goodbye Andie.

Andie's POV:

I get to the front desk of the hotel and tap on the bell.

"Hello! How may I help you?" The hotel manager asks.

"I'm looking for a Chase Collins." I say smiling.

"I'm sorry, miss. You've just missed him."

"Oh ok, can you tell him Andie West stopped by?"

"No, he checked out an hour ago."

"What do you mean checked out?"

"He left."

"Did he leave any note or any messages?" I ask frantically. I was too late.

"Well, he did say he was going back to London...apparently things weren't working well for him over here and he decided to head home."

"When does his flight leave?"

"An hour from now. Why?"

"He's the guy I love, I came all this way and I'm not letting true love fly away to another country, not this time."

Ooh, I'm not promising anything, but I'm thinking of an airport scene...

Trivia time!!

What did Andie's mom die of?

You know the deal...LOL :)

Thanks for reading and hope you enjoyed the chapter!
