In August

Author's Note: This story is once again based off my real life experiences and takes place after the events of "Spring Love, Summer Pain" and the first few chapters cover what happened before the epilogue in that story. This will be considerably shorter, but still follows the same writing style. This first chapter takes place in the present day and then the next chapter, will flashback 4 months.


She's Gone

PRESENT DAY

My heart was pounding at a rapid rate; my fingers clenching my phone waiting for the response. Every second made the wait more intense. My back was sweaty, my mouth was dry. I needed to know.

You already know what's going to happen Mordecai. Don't act like you don't know.

And part of me did in fact know the answer I was going to get, but the other part wanted to stay in denial. It always wants to stay in denial.

Finally, the answer came to my phone.

I placed the phone down on my bed, looking at the floor. My body was stiff, my mind trying to come to terms with the news I have gotten.

She was gone. She was no longer mine.
