A/N - I'm just trying to write as simply as possible. The song is All Cried Out by Gareth Gates.
Summary - It happened only once. And that was already enough.
Disclaimer - I don't own anything.
One Last Time
Tear drops in my eyes
Came every day with the sunrise
It's been that way as long as you've been gone
I thought the day would start
Same as the others falling apart
I thought I barely would be hanging on
She just laid.
Laid and cried.
There were nothing better to do. Her face was pale from the tear stains. Her mascara was on her cheeks and there was only one thing to describe her.
She was a mess.
She started to cry harder and harder by just thinking about him. Thinking about what he'd done.
Wasn't she good enough?
"I swear, Summer! It was only one time," he said, afraid.
"Is that suppose to make me feel better?" Summer asked, trying to sound convincing, but her voice was only a whisper.
For once, Seth was speechless.
"Is it suppose to make me feel better, if you only had sex with that bitch once?" she now yelled. "Is it suppose to help me, that you didn't love me enough?"
Seth didn't speek, just stared at her.
"Get out!" she whispered, looking at the floor.
"But Summer..."
"Get out!" she yelled once again.
With that, he was gone.
Something has changed, feel so strange
Swimming through an ocean of pain
Then suddenly here's the sun
Remember the good times, she thought to herself.
It wasn´t like she never were happy with Seth. They did got married. They did have children.
They had been happy for ten years.
But the one time had been enough.
The little children didn´t understand. They didn´t understand why their daddy was just gone. But she didn´t mind. She didn´t want to see him ever again.
But she would. And that was part of the problem. She would see Seth in their kids every day to an other.
But the one time had been enough.
Baby I couldn't live without you
Now when I think about you
My eyes are dry somehow
Maybe I'm all cried out
All cried out
Seth was standing on her doorway, one last time.
They stared at each other, before he stepped in. He saw the boxes on the floor and became scared.
That's it?
He went to the living room, where their three children sat on the sofa. They looked at their father, but didn´t say anything. He went to them and they all hugged him.
One last time.
They all had tears in their eyes. But they didn´t say anything.
There was nothing left to say.
He picked up the boxes and looked at the children.
One last time.
He went outside and she folloved him. He placed the boxes in his car and turned to look at Summer. She had tears in her eyes, but she quickly wiped them away. She couldn't cry. Not in front of him.
"I love you," he tried, one last time. "And I'm sorry."
She didn´t say anything, just nodded.
"Goodbye," he said, but she didn't respond.
He turned around and got into his car. Then he drove away.
"Goodbye," she whispered, but he didn´t hear her.
He was gone.
Maybe I had enough of you,
Maybe I've tired of dreaming of you
Maybe I've gotten over your goodbye by now
She would always remember the day.
The day he was gone.
The children had never been so quiet. Maybe they understood, maybe not.
He had hurt her, and did it even on purpose. Or maybe not. Maybe he knew exactly what he was doing but just didn't care.
And now, they would have to live without each other.
Maybe it was better.
Maybe they all were better without him.
Even she didn´t believe it. She needed him. But she had made her choice and there was no turning back.
Not anymore.
She looked at the ring on her nightstand. Her wedding ring.
Again, she began to cry.
Because of him. Because of all the things she had to go through.
She didn´t cry anymore.
Because for now on, there were no tears for Seth Cohen.
Not anymore.
My heart has finally walked away
It's gone from the scene of the crime
It's finally found the perfect place
For leaving you far behind
Maybe I had enough of you,
Maybe I've tired of dreaming of you
Maybe I've gotten over your goodbye by now
