Every now and then I get this feeling that someone is watching me. Someone that dances in the shadows; waiting for me to slip so he can devour me.
And when sleep finally comes; after I slip under the lavender silk linens, he comes. Swiftly disrobing me, he always takes a moment to himself.
Gazing down upon me is this beautiful man; and I am married to this beautiful man's half brother.
After a night of heart bursting passion; I awake to find the space next to me empty. And as always; a note placed lovingly on the pillow used to cushion his beautiful blonde head.
Dear Hales,
I know you probably just woke up and may I mention that you are beautiful in the morning. Please, before you read this, know that I love you. Haley James, my best friend, my confidant, and my newfound lover. I am leaving Tree Hill. I know I'm being a coward; not telling you to your face, but I know if I saw you. I wouldn't be able to leave. So, this letter is my goodbye to you.
Goodbye, Haley James.
I will always remember and
love you with all of my heart.
Love,
Luke
And with the final word of that letter; my whole world crumbled.
