With Him, I Can Be Kelly's POV

Letting go. That's what I'm waiting for him to do. To finally let me go and end everything between us. I've been forcing him to forget about me, thinking I was the only one who's hurt but I was wrong. The pain in his eyes and in his voice made me realize that it's not just abou What took you so long to realize your feelings, Pierce? You wasted us and you hurt me so much.

It's making me so angry that he couldn't properly distinguish his feelings. It's maddening that he's still confused between his feelings for me and Lexi. But I know that when he finally said he's letting me go, we're completely over.

We're finally over. He's not gonna chase me anymore. It's sickening to see him following me, begging me to accept him again even when he's already engaged to Lexi. He's still a coward. He never learns. And now, he finally let me go. But what if I give Klay a chance and h he's already married to Lexi when that day comes?

I couldn't help but to feel even more angry. Even if Klay hurt me in the end, I will not go back to him. What does he think of me?

"Are you okay?" Klay asked after he parked the car in front of my apartment building. I was silent the whole ride and he misunderstood my silence.

"I'm fine."

He stared into my eyes. I wanted to take my seatbelt off and leave but his eyes were telling me that he wanted to say something.

"I didn't know they were there either. I'm sorry for failing on our first date."

Realization hit me hard. I let my past affect me again and now the person who has been staying by my side all this time is guilty about something he shouldn't feel guilty about.

"Klay..." I moved closer to him and gently caressed his arm. "I'm fine. The

dinner was good and it made me happy. You didn't fail. You brought me to my favorite restaurant and made me eat my favorite foods. You on our, first date."

His expression immediately lightened. The corner of his lips rose and at handsome smile plastered on his lips.

"Since our first date was a success, will you go on another date with me?"

I was taken aback. Hopes were lingering in his eyes and my heart skipped a beat because of that. He looked so happy and hopeful that I feel like he's gonna take my breath away if I don't distance myself from him. Instead of answering, I unbuckled my seatbelt and went out of the car. I heard him following me as I entered the apartment building.

"Kelly, come on, babe. Tell me about our second date. When will it be?" He asked, following me.
