it's too late

Alex P. O. V

I don't know what happened when we were at Tyler's place. But something terrible must have happened because I've never seen Aria so sad in my entire life

"I'm gonna kill him" I said gritting my teeth

All of us gathered at Spencer's apartment, me, Alice, Evan, Casper, Spencer and Nick were here trying to get Aria out of the room.

"There must be something " Alice mumbled  she doesn't believe that this must be Tyler's doing.

Well neither of us can. Me and Tyler had become very close friends after Aria left us.

He loves too much to hurt her right?.

"We need to find out what happened" Casper said angrily. He was as furious as anyone in this room.

"Only one way" I said and dialled Tyler's number

He picked up after third ring

"Hello?" His voice sounded horrid, full of pain like it hurt him even to breath.

"What the hell happened? " I yelled going to the balcony

"Alex?" He asked disappointed

Right now I don't give a fuck, he hurt my best friend. I won't hesitate to kill him.

"Tell me why my best friend is crying her heart out and won't talk to us?" I yelled clenching the phone.

My nose flared and I was heaving.

He didn't answer but I could hear his harsh  breathing

"Answer the damn question" I yelled harshly.

He gulped "I- I"

"You what?" I yelled.

"I got-" I was getting impatient

"Just fucking say it" I yelled while placing the phone in front of my face.

"I got a girl pregnant " he yelled crying

Everything stilled, everything just paused.

"I cheated on her " he whispered before breaking into sobs

"I'm gonna fucking kill you"I yelled and threw my phone on the wall beside me.

The phone broke into pieces and I gripped the railing breathing harshly

"What the hell" If it weren't for the situation I would be pleased to hear this voice but now, all i feel is rage.

"Alex what happened? " Spencer asked me keeping her hand on my shoulder.

I feel calm with her touch but I can't let this happen.

Aria needs me.

"He fucking cheated on her" I said too harshly and hit the railing repeatedly

"What!" She just froze

I know everyone expected them to be the relationship goals but it's not a fucking romance novel.

"He got a girl pregnant " I tried to control my voice because no matter what. I won't forgive myself if I ever hurt her.

"What!" Her hand slipped from my back and she held her mouth with  her hand. Crying silently

Both of us looked at one another and there was a smash sound.

We looked at each other with a horror expression

"Aria" both of us said at the same time and ran to her room.

Nick and Evan were knocking on the door trying to convince her to open the door.

Casper was holding a crying Alice in his arms. He really looks like her son right now, supporting his mother.

"I'm gonna break it" Nick said and Evan nodded.

"On three" he said and both of there took a step back

"One two three" both of them hit the door with their side with all the power they could muster

When they were gonna go again the door opened itself.

Aria stood there looking dead, she was a mess. Her eyes were swollen and red, her cheek held tear marks. Her lip toren

Evan pulled her into a hug. he came running back when Alice called him. He cancelled all his appointment to make sure his girl was ok.

She pulled back from him and gave him a sad smile

We visibly relaxed a little

"I'm not gonna hurt myself guys"she said trying to sound ok but we know she isn't.

"Are you ok?" Evan asked her and she gave him a humourless chuckle

"I'm not ok" she said tears escaped from her eyes.

Alice pulled her in a hug, both of them crying for another.

Both of them mean the world to me and now it's crashing down and I can't do anything about it.

She pulled away from her and rubbed her tears away.

"I'm not gonna cry over him" she said inhaling deeply "if he thinks I'm gonna break down just because I can't have him then his wrong "

We all looked at her and smiled sadly. I was holding the wall for support and Spencer was giving me side glances to make sure I was ok.

But let's face nobody is.

"I have all of you with me who loves me more than anything. So I'm not gonna waste my tears on someone who doesn't " she said strongly but I know she is breaking from within.

I got out of there, if I would have stayed then I would have broken something.

I went to my apartment and slammed the door shut.

I kept pacing in the living room, held my head in my hands.

I can't believe this is happening, I can't believe Tyler would do that.

Three years I have been with him and he never looked at any girl who isn't Aria then what happened?

Did he do it on purpose or this was a mistake or he never really loved Aria.

God this is so messed up.

I punched the wall and I heard someone gasp. No need to turn I already know.

She came running to me and held my injured hand in her soft ones.

"You shouldn't be here, Aria needs you" I said but Spencer shook her head.

She was shaking when I lifted her chin, she was crying. Tears were running down her face.

"Why?" She asked sadly. She pulled to the kitchen and made me sit on the stool where as she searched the cabinets looking for something

She pulled out the first aid box and held my hand in hers, I didn't realise it was bleeding by now

She kept weeping while tending my injured hand.

"Why did you hurt yourself? " she asked in a low voice.

I felt something in the pit of my stomach when I see her cry.

"Because I can't do anything to help her"I said clenching my jaw.

"Hurting yourself won't help her" she said while applying the cream

"Why do you care?" I asked slowly watching her freez

Slowly she looked at me and we made eye contact. Everything just stopped I never felt this feeling before. not even with Kiyara. Than why her.

I didn't realize we were closing the space between us and when her breath fell on my lips

I pulled away, she looked hurt and rejected. I know I shouldn't have don't that but I can't do this to her.

I'm not good enough for her.

I can't feel this feeling for her, I can't fall for her.

But something screams inside of me that

It's too late
