Ok, here's the game plan. I'm thinking of making this a very slow moving romance. At least I hope it turns out that way. There's going to be flash backs and a bunch of crazy stuff so hang in there. This is really my first down trotted, melancholy, sad, whatever you want to call it, story. So anyway review and leave any random thought or idea you have. I like long reviews so please give me something.

Oliver twisted the silver band that sat heavily on his finger. He took the ring off and held it in his palm. His finger suddenly felt cold. Quickly putting it back on and he sighed. Checking the clock Oliver frowned, 3:15a.m., it was officially the first day of spring. He sat in bed with the lights off. The moon's milky glow shone through window.

There was no one beside him. There was an empty space, no head for the white pillow, no warm body to snuggle. He felt his chest tighten and heart ache.

"Hey there."

Oliver's head shot up. A tall blonde woman stood in the doorway. She was leaned up against the doorframe with her arms crossed over her chest.

"Missed you." Oliver chuckled.

The woman laughed and walked over to him and sat on the edge of the bed. "You're the best Ollie."

Oliver leaned in closer to her. "I really, really missed you."

He stroked her cheek gently.

The blonde woman gave into his touch and closed her eyes.

"I can't stay long Ollie."

"Please. Just try." He pleaded.

"I'm sorry." She whispered.

Oliver kissed her. It was a forced and desperate.

"Stay. Stay." He begged…

Oliver opened his eyes and she was gone. His dream girl was gone. He didn't sleep for the rest of the early morning.

….

Oliver sat in his small cubical and wrote down important numbers on important papers. He typed and clicked away on the computer. He didn't bother anyone, no one bothered him. Noon was lunch and he ate on the corner bench outside and watched the children play by the school yard.

He finished his water and sandwich. Back to salt mines. At five sharp Oliver was free. He took a taxi cab to the small townhouse. There was a dead plant out front and a porch swing that needed fixing. He once promised her he would fix it.

The mail sat on the counter and a one flashed on the answering machine. Mail came first.

Bill.

Junk.

Junk.

What? He picked up a cream colored envelope with his high school written on it. He opened it and quickly scanned the sheet.

10 year reunion. Has it been so long? Oliver put the paper down and scratched his head. Should he go? No, no that would be like suicide. It would be all too painful.

There might be pictures of her somewhere.

Each classroom and hallway will echo with her giggle.

There's no way in hell he was going.

Walking over to answering machine he pressed the black button.

"Hey… uh Oliver." The woman on the other line coughed. "It's Miley... I got my letter for the reunion and I thought maybe it would be a good idea for us to go. I want to see you. Are you ok? You just disappeared. I think we need to go. Anyway please just call me back. Don't shut me out."

There was a loud beep.

Oliver tried to breath but nothing came he sat down and whispered his dream girl's name.

Lily.

….

Right well no worries if you're a little lost all will come together in time.
