I sat in the passengers seat, holding his right hand as he drove with his left. Neither of us were talking, the only sound coming dully from the radio. The silence wasn't uncomfortable, just relaxed. This was the way it was with each other. Every word or action came naturally. I squeezed his hand, gesturing that I would never want to let go. But without warning I couldn't feel his hand on mine, and his image was slipping away. He was slipping away...

I woke up with a start to the sound of my phone ringing. I rubbed the sleep from my eyes and looked down at the caller ID. The name I wished would appear didn't. "Adam Torres" it read. I silenced my phone, leaving the call unanswered. Looking back at my phone, it read 15 missed calls. All from Adam or Alli I presume. There was no one else that would be calling, no one else whose voice I would hear. Especially not that which belonged to him.

I sat up and looked to my windows, remembering a time when a darkly dressed boy that owned that voice would enter them unexpectedly. The curtains in my bedroom were now pulled together tight, leaving no evidence to the time of day. I kept the curtains this way a lot lately. There was no need to look out onto my ledge, smiling at the emerald eyes behind the glass. There was no need, considering the boy who these eyes belonged to would never appear on my ledge again, or any others for that matter.

I laid back down, staring at my ceiling, weeping and remembering the boy who I loved.


Hi Degrassi fans. This is my first story :)

It's kinda depressing, but it'll get good. I'm not sure if anyone wants me to continue, but if you do, review. I promise, the other chapters will be longer, this one's if just so that you can get a taste of the story.

Please review, any criticism or advice or anything is appreciated. Thanks for reading :)
