A.N. okay new story. i have two more chapters planned already. Going to start soon. Hope to post before 18th.
Reba is sitting on the couch while Brock is sitting on the chair.
He is watching some football recap and Reba is reading To Kill a Mockingbird. (it's the book I'm reading this summer)
The silence is killing them. And they both don't realize that they really just want to be with each other.
It sure gets quiet
When the kids go to bed
We sit here in the silence
Putting off what must be said
I read a book you watch T.V.
As our love dies quietly
I'm so sad I don't know what I've just read
They know that they can't live this way anymore. Somebody had to leave.
Somebody should leave
But which one should it be
You need the kids
And they need me
Somebody should leave
But we hate to give in
We keep hopin' somehow
We might need each other again
"Goodnight," said Brock turning the light off and facing away from her.
"I love you," whispered Reba letting the tears start to fall down her cheeks.
You say goodnight
And turn to face the wall
We lie here in the darkness
And the tears start to fall
"This would be so much easier if it was just Brock and me," thought Reba, "But we have Jake, Kyra, and Cheyenne to worry about."
If it was only you and me
Goodbye might come more easily
But what about
Those babies down the hall
Somebody should leave
But which one should it be
You need the kids
And they need me
Somebody should leave
But we hate to give in
We keep hopin' somehow
We might need each other again
Somebody should leave
But we hate to give in
So let's keep hopin' we might need each other again
"I hope we both need each other again. I love him. He has to love me. We have been together for so long," whispered Reba.
A.N. Sorry its so short. I hope y'all like it though. Next chapters should be better. I just needed away to jump start my story. The original idea will start around chapter 3 with the song i originally want to do.
This chapter's song was SOMEBODY SHOULD LEAVE. by REBA herself.
