"But, Kendall, I love you," I said quietly. Tears were falling from my eyes.
"I know you do," Kendall said, "but I just don't feel the same way anymore."
"That's a lie," I said. "I can see it in your eyes." I could tell he was fighting tears. "You still love me."
He put his hand on my shoulder. "I'm sorry, LeeAnn."
Kendall's hand fell off my shoulder. He looked into my eyes one last time and walked away. The rain started falling and everyone left the park. I was alone.
I found a dry spot under the slide and sat down. I was crying harder than I ever have before.
Kendall has been my best friend for 11 years. We've been dating for a year. His band was becoming more popular. I supported him through everything. And he left me. He left me alone in the park.
-*Kendall's P.O.V*-
"Dude, why'd you lie to her?" James asked. "You love her."
"I don't want her to have to deal with everything we are gonna have to," I said wiping tears from my eyes.
"She loves you," Logan said. "She'd deal with it."
"But I don't want to put her through that. It's a pain in the ass."
"Kendall, you need to get her back," he said. "She's been in love with you for a while. This is probably tearing her apart."
"You're not helping me, man!" I said loudly.
"Sorry, bro, but it's the truth."
I sighed. The bus started moving. "It's too late now."
"Kendall," James said, "I-"
"Forget it," I said interrupting him. "I'm going to my room." I walked to the back of the tour bus and laid on my bed. The tears were falling harder and faster than before. I can't believe I left her.
"I'm so stupid," I whispered.
I could hear Logan and James talking through the door.
"Should we go talk to him?" James asked.
"I think we should leave him alone," Logan said. "He's really upset."
I put my pillow over my head and tried to go to sleep.
-*LeeAnn's P.O.V*-
"LeeAnn, I love you," Kendall said. He kissed me.
"I love you, too," I said, breathless. "I have for three years."
"Really?" he asked smiling. "I should've done this earlier." We laughed. "Be my girlfriend?"
"Of course," I said smiling.
Suddenly, everything changed. The sunny day changed to a violent storm. I was at the park. Kendall looked different. He was taller and his hair was longer.
"I don't love you anymore," he said. He started to walk away.
"Kendall, wait!" I said running after him. "Don't go!"
He ignored me and kept walking. Then he vanished.
"Kendall!" I screamed. My face was soaked with tears and my body was soaked with rain. "Kendall!" I screamed again. I collapsed to the ground.
My alarm went off and I jumped up. I was crying.
When I got up and looked in the mirror, I cringed. My hair was tangled. My eyes were puffy and red. My lip was swollen from falling on my walk home last night.
I wasn't looking forward to school. Kendall graduated 3 weeks ago. It was the last week of my freshman year.
I looked at the clock and groaned. The bus would be here in ten minutes. I was used to Kendall taking me. I quickly brushed my teeth and put my hair in a bun. I found sweats and a hoodie and put them on.
I ran outside just in time for the bus to pull up. I got on the bus and found my friend Jessica.
"Whoa, you're riding the bus?" Jessica asked. "Why isn't Kendall taking you?" I bit my lips and tears came to my eyes. She noticed. "LeeAnn, what's wrong?"
"Kendall left me," I whispered. "He left me in the park last night. He's gone."
"What?" she said. "He just left you? Did he say why?"
"He said he didn't love me anymore," I said. My voice was still soft. "He told me and then he left me alone."
"After all the support you've given him and his band," she said. "What a bitch."
"He's not a bitch," I said defensively. "He's just being a jerk right now."
-*Kendall's P.O.V*-
When I woke up, the sun was shining through the window. I walked to the kitchen area of the bus. We were still moving.
"Hey, man," Logan said. "Feeling any better?"
"Not really," I said shrugging. "I still feel like shit."
"Well you slept for like 18 hours," Carlos said.
I shrugged again. I looked in the fridge and couldn't find anything. I started back to my bed.
"Are you not gonna eat?" Logan asked.
I shook my head. "I don't feel like eating."
"Bro, you have to eat," James said with a mouth full of cereal. He swallowed. "And you can't go back to sleep. We'll be in L.A. in about 5 hours. You have to be awake."
"I don't want to be in L.A.," I said sitting down. "I want to back in Texas."
"Kendall, we've got to get your mind off last night," Logan said. "You can't keep thinking of her."
"But you didn't see her face when I left her," I whispered. "She was so upset." I started crying again.
"Hey," Carlos said sitting beside me, "we can help you get through this. You just have to let us."
"He's right," Logan said. "And the first way to get over her is to delete her. Completely."
"Delete her?" I asked.
"Yeah," he said grabbing the laptop," delete her from your phone, Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, stuff like that."
"But I don't want to."
"You need to," James said. "You need to forget about her."
"You'll have to do anything that you have to till you forget about her," Carlos said.
"I can't forget about her."
-*LeeAnn's P.O.V*-
"It's summer!" Jessica exclaimed as she got on the bus that Thursday afternoon. "I'm so excited!"
"I'd rather have school," I said. She looked at me like I was crazy. "With all the craziness and stress from finals, I haven't been thinking about him a lot. Now with no school, I'll be thinking about him a lot." She took my phone. "What are you doing?"
"There," she said giving me my phone back. "I deleted Kendall's number. It's the first step."
"Why would you do that?" I said. "He just got a new number. I haven't memorized it yet!"
"Exactly," she said. "Now you can forget about him and have an awesome summer! But you have to delete him from everything else, too, in order to forget about him."
"But I don't want to forget about him," I said.
"You need to."
"I can't forget about him."
Note from the author!
I know it's not the best, but oh well. I'm having fun writing this story and my friends love it. I've got quite a bit of it written already. So, if I can just get some readers... I'll be updating a lot And I know it's kind of short… But this is how all the chapters are. They're 3 pages front and back, 6 pages total, in my journal and I thought they were gonna be longer. But this is just how it is. Hope you enjoy!
-XOXO LeeAnn
