Chapter One
Two years since Julian's Death:
I was standing in the cooling sand of the beach watching a multicolored sunset waiting. Tom had called earlier that morning asking to meet me here after he finished work at the movie place. He had said it was very important so I had agreed, since tomorrow I would be leaving for college in the windy city of Chicago.
Glancing down at my ring I let out a heavy sigh. I missed him so much. His death was my fault and I planned to fix it. Before I could even come close to doing that I had to get as far away from here as possible, that was the first step.
I was brought from my thoughts at the soft touch of a hand on my right shoulder. "Hello Tom" I said and turned to face him. He had become even more handsome in these past two years but he wasn't what I wanted anymore. I wanted Julian. I wanted Julian's wicked smile, his impossible blue eyes, his musical voice, everything, I wanted everything that was Julian.
"So. What is so important?" I said staring at him till he had to look away.
When he came back to meet my stare he said, "I want you back Jenny. I know you're leaving but I still want you back."
"Sorry Tom but like I said two years ago it's over between us and that's that. We're not met to be. I will always love you but only as a good friend. You need to accept that and move on. Now I have a lot of packing still left to do so good-bye." I gave Tom a quick hug and walked away heading to my car.
