Forget
-something just couldn't be-
They are like two halves of a leaf, fluttering to the grass after someone has ripped them apart. Perfectly symmetrical, but always lacking something. Never knowing they had been pulled away from one another, they would live out their deaths in silence.
Chuck & Blair. Blair & Chuck.
See, their names together even sound perfect, and that annoys her to no end. How is she supposed to get over him, move on from what was, when all around her all she can hear is the constant perfect symmetry of their names mashed together. It hurts, stabs her in the chest and pulls like an invisible dagger, so much so she can barely stand to listen to the mindless babble.
Why can he be named something ugly, something stupid, like Bob? See, Blair & Bob sounds horrible, vomit-inducing perhaps. The name Charles or even Chuck for that matter inspires at picture of elegance and handsomeness, one that she desperately wishes to pull from the depths of her mind and throw away, like a lolly wrapper in the trash. But she can't. Because even since he was born, Charles Bass has been perfect, an Adonis perhaps, and who in their right mind would forget such a classical piece of sculpture.
He should be put up in an art gallery, for others to admire and talk about, not be here, here where she can see him everyday, in every class.
Why can't she just forget him? Is can't be that hard to forget surely. He is just a boy, just a relationship, a fling, after all. Nothing serious. They weren't even right for each other, to be honest. Always fighting, always screaming. They couldn't, wouldn't, have lasted. It wasn't right.
They were like oil & water, like fire & paper. Two things that could mesh together, but weren't supposed to. It wasn't right.
They were always going to destroy one another, no matter how much they tried to deny it. The constant fighting would take its toll and wear them down, then something would happen that would make their whole relationship, based practically on lies, snap into two bots like the fragile branch of a tree.
But she couldn't just forget him, for some reason. He was the only relationship that refused to budge from her mind. Always there, always lurking in the shadows. Like a creepy blackness that threatened to take over her whole heart and soul.
She hated it. She despised it. Always Chuck, always thinking about him. She was sick of it, to be honest.
But she couldn't forget.
Blair tried and she tried but he was always there.
Something's just could not be erased.
Review yes? :)
