Until the Last of Days
Prologue

----
Have you ever been in the position where you've lost the one you love?
The pain is excruciating, something similar to death, I would imagine. You watch the one you love walk away, close the door, and your thoughts turn immediately to whether you've said the wrong thing; whether you'll be forgiven; whether you'll see them again. Because, in that split second, when the click of the lock signifies the mistake you've made, you want to fix it.
Some people - the lucky ones - get that chance quicker than others.
I've waited three months.
I've smiled, joked, and acted like the man I was before. But inside I'm melting from the burns that have been left all over my heart. And I can't hate her: I'm the one to blame. Completely. She's done nothing wrong. She simply wanted… for me to notice. For me to love her even in the times when I wanted to punch walls because of our arguments. She wanted me, all of me.
And I let her slip through my fingers.
All because of something I said.
I've never wanted to take something back as much as I do now. I can still remember, vividly, the way she'd looked at me when the words had poured from my mouth. I had torn her apart. I had said the exact words she'd always feared. I had broken her trust, and her heart.
I'd give anything to have her back… to love her again, in the way she deserves.
And if I ever get that chance, I won't be letting her down again.
Hello everyone! I'm back without a completely new story! *SURPRISE* I know I haven't written anything big in almost five months, but life has taken me away and turned very hectic. Hopefully you'll enjoy this, though. It's fairly short story, no more than 12 chapters. The first - proper - chapter will be posted on Wednesday (20/1/10) and then from then on all updates will be on Saturdays.
So, even though this is just a prologue/snippet of what's to come, I'd appreciate it if you reviewed!
Bring on Wednesday!
