We Are Unbreakable

Kimbers POV

"I still can't believe your leaving tomorrow!" I whined to Riley. "I mean, the bar won't be the same without you!"
"It's only for six weeks, I'll be back before you know it. And I don't want you working, just come in every couple of days and check on things. I've already sorted out another manager to deal with organising bands, so you won't have to worry about a thing. If there are any problems, you know you can call me" she said as she polished glasses.
It was the end of the night and we were finishing off the cleaning.
"How many tattoos are you gonna have by the end of this?"
"I have no idea. Hopefully all the ones I've been wanting. I have so many planned out."
"I'm gonna miss you so much! Who am I gonna hang out with?" I complained.
"Umm well. there's always Juliet, Sammi and Ella. I'm not your only friend."
"But your my best friend! I'm gonna be so bored!"
"You'll be fine" Riley said, shaking her head.
We continued cleaning when Riley's message tone played.
She picked up her phone and I saw her face change to sadness.
"Riley... Everything okay?" I asked carefully.
"Are you okay to lock up?" She said shakily.
"Yeah, fine... You okay?"
"Nope" she said rushing to the office. She came back out with all her stuff, keys in hand and she was out the door.

Ashleys POV

It was 2 am and I lay in bed watching YouTube off my laptop. I heard the front door open and slam shut, assuming Riley was home.
"Hey babe, I'm upstairs" I called to her.
I heard her footsteps getting louder as she approached, then I had her phone shoved in my face. I didn't pay attention to it at first, but she dropped it onto my lap.
I looked up at her and her expression screamed betrayal. I took her phone and properly looked at.
It was a photo of me with the brunette from last week. There was no caption, but one wasn't needed. I had her pressed up against the wall, passionately kissing.
My face dropped as I studied the photo. I couldn't bring myself to look at Riley.
"Care to explain yourself?" She said, trying to sound angry, but coming out as hurt.
"Riley, I was really drunk, I honestly don't remember half that night. I'm so sorry, I should have been more aware of what I was doing" I said getting out of bed and trying to hold her. She flinched to my attempts and stepped away.
"You lied to my face. Did you even plan on telling me? Or were you waiting for me to find out like this?" She demanded, still sounding hurt.
"I never wanted you to find out. It was one big mistake! I was so mad with you that day..."
"Yes, I was mad with you too, but I never wanted to hurt you!"
"I know, I'm sorry! Please Riley, I've been feeling so guilty! CC made me feel like a heartless prick and he's shutting me out. I can't lose you!"
"CC knows! Who else knows about this?"
"No one."
"Wow, that's so low. Making your best friend keep this from me" she said, now on the verge of tears.
"It's not like that! I was just trying to save us! I can't lose you! I don't care how much we fight, at least I know our relationship is real and we try for one another."
"Ashley that's not an excuse to hide this from me! You know what, I'm not doing this right now" she said exiting the room.
"Wait, what?" I said following her.
She rushed downstairs where her suitcases were packed for her ready to leave for the convention tomorrow.
"I'm not staying here tonight" she stated.
"No! Riley, please stay! Don't leave! Don't go on the convention! Just stay and we can work everything out, please! I'm begging here" I said standing in front of the door.
Her eyes started to water as she grabbed her suitcases and tried to push me out the way.
"Riley, please stay. I can't let you leave like this" I pleaded.
"Let me go Ash."
"Please, don't go. I need you to stay" I said trying to wrap my arms around her.
"Don't touch me! Ash, please let me go!"
"No, I can't watch you walk away. Not like this!" I said, my own eyes starting to water.
"I can't Ash. I can't do this right now. I just need to be away from you and all this."
I hesitantly stepped out of her way.
"You'll call me tomorrow? Please?" I said, feeling myself breakdown.
"I'll text you when I land in New York" she she dryly.
"You'll come back home afterwards?" Worry leaking into my tone.
"We'll see Ash. I have a lot of thinking to do."
"No, Riley, I can't... Please stay tonight. I don't want you to leave like this! I want to talk about this!"
"No! We don't need to talk! You need to think! Think about what you want! Cause I think you still don't know" she said taking her car keys out of her pocket to unlock her car.
She shoved her suitcases in the trunk and got in the drivers seat.
"Riley... Riles, please, don't go... Will I see you when you get back?" I said desperately.
"We'll talk when I get back. For now, I just can't. Bye Ashley" she said, then started the car.
"I love you Riley. I will never stop loving you!"
She gave me a look of sadness. "Bye" she said quietly.

Rileys POV

Walking away from Ashley was something I never thought I had to do.
I just feel so hurt and betrayed. I can't even look at him.
I restrained myself from glancing into the rear view mirror. I couldn't look at his face.
I couldn't believe what he'd done... After everything that happened with me and Andy, he knew how bad I was hurt. This was so much worse. This was like my heart being smashed into billions of tiny glass shards, then set on set fire so I would choke on the smoke. It was too much to handle.
I wanted to be on my own, but the Malibu house was too far away from LAX. I would have stayed with Kimber, but I didn't need them on my back about this or trying to explain my problems to Seth.
I then decided to go to Andy and Juliet's house. They were likely to leave me alone and I knew they slept in so they wouldn't even hear me leave in the morning.
I wound up on their doorstep five minutes later and shivers ran down my spine. I use to live here.
I knocked quietly and Andy answered the door a moment later.
"Ohh, hey Riley, what are you doing here?" He asked confused.
"Umm, can I stay here tonight?" I asked.
"Uhh, sure. Come in. Is everything okay?"
"I prefer to not talk about it. I just need to get some sleep. I'll be gone by morning."
"Whoa, Riley... Whats going on? Is everything okay with Ashley?"
"I can't talk about it! I just want to go to sleep. I'll see you when I get back from the convention, by then I'm sure you'll know" I said pushing passed him and going upstairs.
I locked myself in one of the spare bedrooms before he could follow me.
I breathed a heavy sigh and wrapped my arms around my body as I sat on the bed. A lump in my throat grew and I felt hot tears well in my eyes.
This couldn't be happening.
