Must
Get Out
Chapters 1-3
*before I
begin, yes I know, this is repost of my story, I feel like I
lost all my readers with the lapse in chapters.So i'm reposting
the story because I really like where it's going, I hope you
guys will too. :)
Chapter 1:"I'm
sorry I haven't been texting you back, I just, have been taking
some time to be alone... And i'm thinking that I want to stay
that way." After ignoring me for more than two weeks I really
expected more from him... He was my Jacob... how could he do
this to me?
"So, basically what you're saying here is that you're breaking
up with me, after almost 3 years? Over a text?" If he wasn't
going to have the balls to say it right out, I was.
"Well, If you want to put it harshly, then yes." He was always
good at making me feel stupid...
"How could I not take it harshly?" But while I was texting him
this I was literally, physically and mentally breaking down...
I knew it was over before he said it was over.
"I just want to be alone, I need to be alone. It's nothing you
did Aubrey, it's just... the way I prefer to be." Fine... be
alone and leave me here to pick up the pieces of yet another
broken heart. I really thought he was different... But I guess
I was wrong.
Chapter 2:
It was the
beginning of July and I was as happy as ever, until Jacob
shattered my heart. So cliché, I know… But from
there my summer was just one long never-ending pain fest. I
tried to listen to all my friends who said that I could do
better. But honestly all I wanted to do was go back and have it
all be just a terrible nightmare and he would have a really
good reason for not texting or calling me for two weeks…
But every afternoon when I would finally drag myself out of
bed, I was reminded of the painfully obvious truth, I was
single. My room was covered in things he had given me, I
couldn’t take looking at them anymore… I could
have easily driven them over to his house. But no, I
couldn’t bear to look at him again… I packed up
everything, the presents, our cd’s and pictures…
and put them in a box, and mailed them to him. Now there were
less things hanging around to cause me pain… Regardless,
I was sinking into a deeper and deeper depression, just like I
promised myself I wouldn’t ever do again…
Chapter 3:
On one particularly gloomy “summer” morning in Oregon, my parents called me into the living room to talk to me about something. They sat me down and looked me straight in the face and said that my mom had been offered a promotion. I was exstatic that my mom had finally gotten what she’d worked so hard for! She hated her job, she felt she wasn’t living up to her potential, and I guess her boss finally saw that too. But they took in a big breath and let out a big sigh, and laid it on me. We were moving. Before the end of the summer. To Phoenix, Arizona. I was strangely happy, I’d always had a love for perpetual sunshine. I was literally running away from my problems, in the most literal sense. And in a strange way, I was up for it. Excited even, to leave the pain behind. Instinctively I texted Jacob (along with my best friends Rose and Amber) to tell them about the move, and regretted sending it to Jacob as soon as it said sent…
“I’m moving to Phoenix before the end of the summer!”
Rose: “WTF D’: whyyyy, nooo! Take me with you hunny!”
Amber: “You can’t leave! Nothing will ever be the same without you…”
Jacob: “Can you meet me at our coffee shop in ten? I wanna see you.”Chapter 4:

~Jacob~
Here it was, Friday night. How was I spending it? Alone in my
condo with the knowledge that Aubrey was on a date with
him tonight. Facebook sucks. It’s like, no, I
don’t want to know that the love of my life was going on
a date with a guy who probably plays every girl who gives him a
chance. That guy has been nothing but a slimy snail since the
moment I met him. I would do anything to have her back, every
little piece of her. The fact that she acts like
everything’s okay- but I knew when she said
“I’m fine.” That she was either 1) Lying. Or
2) Didn’t want to talk about it. I love the way
she’d fight exhaustion just to hear my voice. Or the way
she baked when something was really wrong. But I knew I loved
her when we were 13. It was our first sleepover, and she had
just showered and taken off all her make-up. It was an
indescribable feeling. I knew in a split second that the 13
year old girl in Spongebob pajamas would someday be the woman I
married, had children with, and died loving. I was so deep in
thought I hadn’t realized that tears were openly flowing
down my face and soaking my A Day to Remember shirt I got with
her at Warped Tour when we were 14. Everything I did reminded
me of her, of times when I couldn’t imagine life without
her, because living life without her, wasn’t really
living at all.
*author's note: I'd really appreciate some feedback at this
point, i'm terribly sorry about the long lapse in chapters. If
you did take the time to read this, thank you. :) I apologize
for not keeping up on my chapters. But there are more coming.
Promise.

The look on her face, hell, the gleam in her eyes hade all the hours of preparation for our date worth it. Every single second of it. It felt like an eternity waiting for her to answer.
“Yes! Of course!” I jumped up off my knee and pulled her into a bear hug. For a split second I looked at my watch and it was already 8!
“We gotta go! Our movie starts at 8:15.” I had pulled some strings at the local movie theater, and they were playing the Notebook just for us, because it’s her favorite movie. I was willing to anything to see her smile. When we pulled up to the theater I think she realized I hadn’t told her what movie we were seeing.
“What movie are we seeing?” She looked at me with her almost childlike eyes, and I almost turned into jello right then and there.
“That’s another surprise, sorry.” My face hurt from smiling so much, I hoped she’d like this surprise too. Once we were in the otherwise empty theater, and the movie began- she realized movie it was. She turned, looked right at me, and spoke,
“Do you have like the best memory ever, or you’re just creepy. Which is it?” She smiled with one eyebrow raised.
“Well I’ve been told I have a creep-good memory.” This girl made me almost not able to form a coherent sentence, let alone a coherent conversation! We sat through the rest of the movie in a silence that was comfortable, except for her whispering every word along with Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams. It was as if she were meant to be cast in the Notebook instead of Rachel McAdams. When she started to cry, she set her head on my shoulder. That moment couldn’t have been even more perfect if it was in my dreams.
