Cross My Heart
I stared at the campus below me. I could see everything from up here; from the art block that was locked away in the corner of the school to the strip of classrooms directly in front of the administration office. It was the tallest building in the school and the one I currently stood atop of. The roof was flat with walls built around and it gave the most perfect view of the grounds with its green grass and many students loitering about. It also gave a perfect view of the classroom where a blonde sat crying at her desk with all of her friends surrounding her. The scene that you could observe through the window was heart wrenching to watch and only strengthened my resolve.
I smiled as I climbed onto the brick wall. I could finally do one thing right, finally do something for her. It was my fault of course that she had wished for this, but I was determined to make it come true. It was the least I could do, for I had hurt her beyond repair and disappointed her again as well as everyone else.
She had been furious, but I acted as if I didn't care. When she slapped me across the face and screamed at me with tears running down her cheeks I didn't try to stop her or say anything because I knew it was what I deserved. I had broken the promise I made as well as her heart.
I still remembered when I made that promise. She was scared that I would betray her like her last boyfriend had, hurt her and leave without another word. I couldn't take seeing her so upset and terrified. I held her hands in mine and told her I would never do such a thing, because I wouldn't; I would do worse.
She sniffled as I told her that and looked up at me with those big brown eyes of hers, "You promise?"
I still don't know how I had managed to smile at her that day and tell her what I had because I knew that I couldn't keep the promise. I guess it was because I was prepared to do anything for her so she could be happy…
"I cross my heart."
I sealed my words with a kiss and it was probably the happiest day of my life but now would be a day she would regret for the rest of hers.
I took a deep breath as I tittered closer to the edge. I could finally set everything right. I looked into the window to see the girl that had wished me dead. Everyone was there to comfort her and I was glad she had her friends to help her through what I had done.
I looked down to the floor that was my fate then brought my gaze back to the beauty that had captured my heart. I didn't want to hurt her. Why would I ever want to intentionally hurt the girl that had brought me so much happiness? All I wanted was to be by her side, but it wasn't meant to end like that. She turned her head to face the window and looked directly at me. I smiled at her and she stood up in her seat. I jumped off the ledge.
I love you, Lucy…
