Chapter Forty-Three

"Here, let me take him." Sidney said as soon as the game was over. Ryan had fallen asleep somewhere in the third period.
"Thanks." I said.
"Where is Avery?" He asked.
"He went to the car. I am just meeting him there."
"Well are you ready?" He asked and reached for my hand.


"Jo." Sidney said walking into the cafe well after midnight.
"What are you doing here?"
"Jacob called, said you never came home after Connors."
"Yeah.." I said turning around on the stool.
"What happened?" He asked when he realized I had been crying.
"He just made me realize something."
"What?"
"That I'm not suppose to be happy.. well I am but I'm not suppose to be with anyone. I have gotten use to being alone and I think thats how its suppose to be for me.. I mean it has to be because why else would Connor say things like what he just said."
"Jo." He said coming towards me.
"No, Sidney. I am fine with being alone. I don't believe in happily ever after. My prince charming isn't going to just come rescue me and I'm fine with that. I don't deserve it and I can be happy with it. I don't need a prince.. I'm fine on my own." I said.
"Jo." He said and I looked away.
"Look at me." He said. "You deserve the world. You deserve happily ever after and you deserve your prince charming."
"Its not in the cards for me." I said cutting him off.
"I want to give you the world, I want to be in your happily ever after and I want to be your prince charming and I hate the fact that someone made you think otherwise."
"No, Sidney."
"Yes, Joey. You are worthy of the world. I want to be with you.."He said and leaned in and kissed me.
"Sidney." I said putting my hand on his mouth and pushing him away. "I can't do this because I don't know if I'm ready for this. I don't know if my heart can handle you leaving me again."
"I will never leave you. I will never leave you and I will do whatever I can do to make you believe in happily ever after again. I will do everything to make you believe that I am your prince charming. I want to be that for you.. just let me be that for you." He said and I was looking deep into his eyes and I believed every word of it. I believed he would give me the world and I believed that he wouldn't leave me but I just broke down and started to cry.
"I want to believe you and I want to be with you but I'm scared. I'm scared and I don't get why these things happen to me. I don't get why Connor said those things."
"Baby, I'm here. You don't have to be scared because I won't let anything happen. I want to protect you.. I never want you to feel alone. And I hate Connor for doing whatever he did to you."
"Sidney.. please don't leave me. Please don't break me again because I don't think I can take it again." I said digging my head into his chest.
"Lets go back to Mario's. We can stay there tonight."
"Are you sure?"
"I'm not leaving you tonight." He said and then we walked to his car.
