preface
As we stood in the long bustling terminal I could sense the excitement of holidays waiting to be flown out to their destinations but I couldn't share their excitement ,I was waiting to say goodbye to the one thing that was kept my heart beating .As we stared at check in desk ,I could see groups of people by their boyfriends, girlfriends, husbands, wives and their suitcases in hand ,talking about the once in a life time chance to travel and what they would do once they made it to wherever it was they were going .their faces were plastered with cherry smiles, I had a urge to smack them all. As we approached the check in agent I could feel my stomach pulsating as I choked back the tears that were forcing to roll down my cheeks .Wanting to be brave in front of her and all the strangers ,I restrained them .I was thinking of ways possible to tell them not take her that she was mentally unstable anything really that would stop them from destroying my life and tearing us I thought sounded like it would actually work .I would have never thought that saying goodbye to the most difficult person in my life would be that hard. I forced a smile even though smiling wasn't what I wanted to do right then and there .She grabbed my waist and pulled me onto her for a little balance. My eyes met with her doe chocolate ones and yet again all the worries went out the door .My fears left and I was reassured that everything was going to be okay though I knew everything wasn't .She bit her lip in hesitation and spoke will looking into my eyes.
"Don't go flirting with other girls now ." My mouth parted then closed again. She continued to speak.
" I just wanted a little more time. So all in all I'd say you're the worst ting that's ever happened to me ." She said with a smile
Tears fell from her eyes and I caved too .Yes Chad Dylan Cooper was crying .In public. At a national airport .
"I cant express how much you mean to me .And forever's something we cant be.." I said through choked tears.
She tilted her head up and pressed her lips on mine .The sweet smell of peppermint that I grown to love clouded up my nostrils as I leaned down and wrapped my arms around her tiny frame .Tears were rolling down my cheeks and I didn't care ,we stood there embracing until it was officially time for her to leave .She gave me down last peck and she hugged me .Then gave me a yellow envelope as she walked away .
"I love you !don't forget that ,ever." I shouted to her as I clutched the yellow paper .
"Forever and always ." She whispered back .
Once she was on the plane I managed to open up the letter .
You are the best thing that's ever been mine~
Xox…
From the envelope a folded up picture fell , I took a look at it and realized it was a photo of our snowman we made weeks earlier .I bite my lip ,like she did .I walked out of the airport , deciding that I couldn't stay in there another moment .
"You are the best thing that's ever been mine ." I whispered up at the sky as the snowflakes fell creating a winter wonderland on the ground .
