Piper's POV

For the next three days, I didn't come out.

The guys kept coming in to try and get me to eat, so eventually, I just locked the door.

I stared at the ceiling or cried for hours at a time, falling in and out of consciousness. I didn't have the energy to move, not knowing if it was the lack of sleep or the not eating that was shutting me down.

James didn't want me, and I just couldn't handle that.

James's POV

I felt like a different person.

I was stuck at Lacie's apartment, only setting the Playstation aside to hookup, whether it was with Lacie or not .

I didn't want to stay anymore, but I couldn't go back.

I didn't want to face the one of two things that I'd find;

1.)Piper sitting in someone's lap attached to their lips, not even coming up for air to acknowledge I was back

or

2.)Piper crying like hell and doing something stupid like refusing to eat.

I knew I didn't mean what I texted her, but I couldn't be sure if she knew. I couldn't face her knowing what I'd been doing for the past three days.

That's why I went right back to what I was doing.

A pretty brunette who's name I forgot.
