Dedicated to my classmates…MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!
Love Story
What ever happened to our love story? Our happy ending? Our Happily Ever After? When did this change? When did we change? When did these holidays change? When were we ever apart? At least to this extent…
Christmas…a joyous holiday…well to some it is. But for us it was far from a fairy tale. You had come home drunk that day…your words slurred and your actions harsh. The quiet dinner we had planned…gone. You didn't want anything to do with it…you told me to fuck myself. And I sulked off, no longer feeling the holiday cheer.
But there she was…a pretty face…your vow…broken. I knew our life wasn't a fairytale, but the harsh reality of it hurt. My heart shattered seeing her. You wanted her more than me. And it was worse that I knew it was her all along. Her perky voice, her blonde hair, and her manipulating tactics.
You brought her home with you that Christmas and went off to our room with her. My chest felt heavy almost if it were filled with rock of some sort. I struggled not to cry as I heard you with her. Picking up my pieces I walked lethargically over to my purse. Without haste I slipped on my jacket and shoes, shutting the door behind me.
"Caitlyn" I said softly as she answered her phone
"Mitchie…" I could sense the surprise in her voice.
"Caitlyn…I need help" I said slipping into my car
"How soon can you get here?" She asked
"I'm already on my way" I said pulling out of my driveway
"Are you okay?" She asked concern dripping in her voice
"No. No. No, I'm not" I said softly halfway there
"Are you sure you should be driving?" She asked me
"Maybe" I said pulling into her driveway
"Just come straight in, the doors opened" She said
"You know you could get robbed if you leave the door unlocked" I said
"I know" She said hanging up
I opened the car door, the wind hitting me strongly. I sighed, my chest still heavy, as each step filled me with remorse. I kept walking, fighting not to fall into this deep pit of despair I was slowly going into. Finally, I had reached the door. Opening it slowly, I saw a concerned Nate on the couching with a worried Caitlyn beside him.
"Mitch…" She said stopping briefly after seeing my condition. "Mitchie…what happened?" She asked
"It was his fault…" I trailed off thinking about him.
"Mitchie?" He asked questionably with his puppy dog eyes
"No, we can't get that tree it won't fit in the house" And I smiled at his childish antics.
"But…" He started
"No buts, we can get that one though" I said pointing across the lot
"Yeah" He said running over to it all puppy dog like
"Mitchie…Mitchie what did he do?" She asked snapping me out of my thoughts
"He was drunk…and he brought her" I said falling on the couch my eyes brimming with tears
"She's such a bitch!" Caitlyn sad wrapping a comforting hug around me
"But, what hurt was that I knew it was Tess all along. I knew that was why he was always at the studio…I knew it" I sad sobbing even harder
"I always thought you guys would have a fairy tale ending, a Disney thing I'm sure, but I always felt like that" She said making calming noises a mother might make towards her child.
"It's not a love story, there's no happily ever after, the villain won this one" I said whipping the tears from my face
"You need to write?" Nate questioned knowing me
"Yeah" I said as Nate ran out of the room for my notebook
"Here" He said handing me my notebook and a pen. Shifting uncomfortably I started writing.
You were my prince
My happily ever after
My Romeo
My fairy tale ending
But when did that change
Where did we go wrong
When did this love story
Ever end
Our love was like a song
We were just so strong
Or so I had thought
Until my happily ever after ended
Our lives' were complete
The Villain splayed at our feet
Or so I thought
That's what we never fought
But when did that change
Where did we go wrong
When did this love story
Ever end
She won
It's no surprise
That our love
Had blinded my eyes
But when did that change
Where did we go wrong
When did this love story
Ever end
I wish it never went
From a happily ever after
Of this love story to a
Happily Never After…
I put the pen down and Caitlyn and Nate came over to see what I had wrote. In silence they read…and in silence they thought.
"Mitchie…this would make a good song" Nate said
"I know…it always will" I said
"You wanna put some chords to it…it might make you feel better" She suggested
"Sure,
after all my love story is complete" I said following after them
