.: If I Fall :.
One shot- "This is for the ones who believe their lives won't change.."
There's this boy-He's a guitar player- he has the funniest laugh I've ever heard- his voice is like music to my ears- and his touch is warmer than most.
He's got the biggest smile- and doesn't have the greatest singing voice- but I love him. Even though he's here, he's gone- a complicated piece I'm trying to make sense of.
We made our promises to each other- we laid there staring up to the stars while he rambled on about life and where he sees himself. He always included me in everyone of his conversations. Even if his friends suggest to do something with him he'd always try to include me- even when I felt like the odd one out.
I remember when I had been so scared- Tears were streaming down my face as I bolted out my front door- The screams seemed to grow louder the further I ran- I ran as fast and far as I could- my vision blurry from the tears- I felt myself trip and smash hard against the wet cold concrete- It hurt- but it didn't hurt as much as everything else in my life-
I went to him - He opened the door and without question picked me up without saying a word.
He placed me safely in his arms- his grip loose enough to feel comfortable- but tight enough so I couldn't fall- he placed me on the couch- without saying anything he grabbed my leg and wrapped it tightly-
After he just looked at me- almost like he could my pain- he just wrapped his arms around me while I held on to him tightly- feeling too scared to let go.
Meeting his parents seemed quite scary- we went straight after school to his new place- he could tell I was nervous- he just squeezed my hand tightly while they greeted me with a smile and I just felt so safe.
I always went to his band practices- listening to his songs through the phone he made- I even watched him perform on stage for the first time - I was there when his ex girlfriend wasn't. Being apart of his life- was all I ever asked for.
Every day I sit beside him- Showing him the old scrapbook of him and I- so many memories that seem so fresh in my mind- I look into his eyes and I remember so much.
With him- he looks at me and sees a stranger- someone he doesn't recognize at all. We made our promises and I stick by it- to be there for each other, forever and always. Even though he doesn't remember I still love him- I tell him I love him- everyday- I know if he was there he'd whisper back " I love you too."
