I looked at the small tombstone. I had spent so many days here crying. It did not seem to do any good. They were both as dead as they were a week ago. And I was still just as upset as I had been month ago. So why did I waste my time here every day? Maybe if I let them be at peace I would be to.
I thought back to when I had first told her that I loved her. We had both stayed home sick from school. But she did not look very sick to me. But I did know something was off. She never skipped school.
"What is your problem?" I asked.
She shot me an angry glare then went back to her book. Like I was the most stupid person on the earth. I might have been. She seemed so sad though. She looked back up and burst into tears. I went to her and wrapped my arms around her. She held onto me tightly. I did not want to let go. She felt so right.
"Derek, Alex and I broke up."
I looked down at her. "Even he does not love you that will never change the fact that I love you so much. I will always love you." I said without thinking.
She smiled up at me. "I have always loved you too." Then she kissed me.
Her kiss was so light. So careful. I found myself not wanting it to end. But I did end it. But I did not let go of her.
