Story Of My Life!

I'm running, running and I'm never going to stop! I need to get away, I can't stand how much this is killing me!

It was a hot summers day and we were at LaPush beach, my favourite place to go. I was five and it was very sunny. He was 15, he's been 15 all my life and will always stay 15. I guess you could say he never ages. We were playing, well paddling in the sea, holding hands and jumping the waves. This is one of my happiest memories. After my father leaving and my mother being severely ill, he was my escape.

That's why I have to leave. I love him, but we're best friends. I'm not ever going to mess that up! My love is so deep it's like a wound, killing me slowly.

It's the 15th November, my tenth birthday. Double digits at last. I wasn't having a party, or at least that's what I thought. He threw me a surprise party! It was so great. Everyone was there, all of my friends and family. Best of all he got my father to come to the party. He really is the best friend anyone can ask for. My father's was a jerk though. Father was lovely to me and said he was really happy to see me. Father promised to stay the night and see me before he left, because he had to leave, but he fled like the coward he is!

I've been running for two day's now and my heart is burning, the hole is growing and I ache for him. I need him like I need air to breathe. He taught me to ride a bike, he taught me to swim he'd taught me to dance, he taught me all I know! The times he'd laughed (lovingly) when I tripped, the time's he'd helped me up. The times I love him.

My first day at high-school. He showed me around, got me settled in. He ate lunch with me so I wasn't alone. He was with me all day – except for classes. He was with me before school, after school and even during school. We were best friends nothing more...

Who am I kidding? I love him. I have stopped running now but I'm lost, all alone in the darkness. That's when I saw him! He was walking toward me, my soul-mate. I have to tell him. I walked towards him shaking with fear. I walked up to him slowly and it just came out:

"I love you, Seth Clearwater. I always have I just didn't know it but now I do. I love you, I love you so much"
"You don't know how long I've waited to hear you say that" Seth whispered close to tears. I was crying freely by this point, this was the best day of my life.
