Too Late

Pierce's POV

Kelly shove me away. She doesn't wanna see me anymore. She didn't even believe me when I told her that I'm in love with her. It was all too late for us. I was too late when I realized my feelings. I couldn't bring

She doesn't want to live in the same house where I used to live with Kelly and I don't want to live there because in every corner of that house, I can see I swallowed hard and looked away.
