The Way I Loved You

Troy sat on a bench all alone in the park as he watched couples after couples walk hand-in-hand very happily. Oh, how he wished that was him. Him with the girl of his dreams. Gabriella. Whenever he heard that name, his heart would skip a beat or he would smile but now that feeling was gonna fade away no matter what happens. He hated it. He hated the fact that he was gonna lose her forever. The flashback started to play in his head. The sad memory that he wished that didn't have to happen.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Flashback:

Troy was already upset that his girlfriend for a year had to leave the country so she could be with her father who lived in Europe. The reason she had to move was her mother passed away and Gabriella was legally being sent to be with her father no matter what. Troy understood how upset Gabriella was. She was cried insanely when she told him. He had tears in his eyes too but he planned to make the goodbye less painful as possible. Even with the advice he got from his friends and parents to let Gabriella go, he refused to listen. He didn't want to let her go. She was his girl. He loved her too much to let her go.

That night, was the last night he could ever see Gabriella. He planned on a very romantic date with her under the stars in privacy. He drove to her house with happy thoughts on how wonderful the date would turn out. Troy cheerfully walked to her doorstep and rang the doorbell while hiding a little teddy bear behind him. His smile was even bigger when he saw her open the door. She was beautiful as ever. Well, she was always beautiful to him no matter what. He was puzzled by what she was wearing though. She was instead wearing sweats and looking rather sad.

"Hey. I can see you're not dressed yet. It's fine. I guess i was too early. I'll just wait in the car while you change," Troy said.

"Actually Troy, if that's okay with you i rather talk to you first," Gabriella said in monotone.

"Um. Sure. Something wrong?" Troy asked concernly.

"I don't know Troy. I'll just cut to the chase. I don't think i can do the long distance relationship thing." Gabriella said with tears already in her eyes avoiding to look at Troy.

Troy felt his heart being crushed into a bunch of million pieces when she said that.

"But...but i thought we agreed to call each other everyday no matter what?"

"I know. I'm sorry. I mean, think about it Troy. We're gonna be in totally different continents-"

"That didn't stop us when you visited your dad before."

"That's because i only visited him for 2 weeks and came back. Now it's gonna be different Troy. I'm gonna live in Europe and may never come back. I don't think we can make it work," Gabriella said while sobbing.

"Then we'll do whatever it takes to make it work. We'll IM each other or do the whole web cam thing or even sent each other the postcards. I don't want this to be over Brie," Tears brimmed in Troy's eyes too.

"Me too, Wildcat. But i just can't stand not to see you every single day. Hearing your voice through the phone is just isn't enough for me. I know i'm gonna miss your hugs, the way you kissed my forehead & cheek and it's all too much for me. I love you too much to see all that go away Troy. Please understand."

"No. I can't. I love you too much to let you go too. I don't want to let you go. Not now. Not tomorrow. Not ever. Gabriella please don't do this. I'll do anything for you. I'll come visit you anytime you want me to. No question about it. My parents and Chad told me to let you go but you know what i said? I said no. I said i would never ever let you go because you are my girl. I'll stick with you no matter what happens. Please don't do this to me. To us." Troy was already crying heavily when he said that and stared deeply in Gabriella's eyes.

"No Troy. I can't do it. I just do see us with a future."

"Yes you do. I know that because i know you too well Gabriella"

"Well maybe that's true but do you really think we will still be together after i moved? We're gonna meet new people. We're gonna meet someone new to spent our whole lives with."

"No. You're wrong. I don't have to find someone new because i already found her. It's you. I want to spent my whole life with you."

"Troy please, just go. I..I can't do this now. Please just take this and leave."

Gabriella hands Troy an envelope and closed the door behind her and dropped to the floor crying heavily. Outside, Troy was vigorously banging on the door begging Gabriella to open the door. When he finally gave up, he placed the teddy bear at her doorstep and walked back to his car and went home straight away with a broken heart.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That was 8 years ago. 8 years without him seeing or hearing from his true love ever. Troy never dated any girl after that. He never had a crush on any other girl ever. Not since Gabriella. He took out the letter Gabriella gave him that night which he always kept with him everywhere he went. He took it out and read the letter while admiring the beautiful cursive handwriting.

Dear Troy,

Where should i start? I guess i should say i'm sorry for breaking your heart. I'm sorry if i caused any harm to you whatsoever. You have to know that letting you go is the most hardest thing i have to do in my entire life because i realised how much i love you. Alot. I love you alot with all my heart. What we had was wonderful and magical and i've never been so glad to be with a person that truly understands me. You are the guy i dreamed of when i was a little girl hoping to find my prince. That's you. I think it's safe to say that you are my first and only true love and no one could ever replace you in my heart. If you ever find out that i ever fall in love with someone new, you should know that it could never be The Way I Love You.

Love,
Gabriella

Tears started to come back to his eyes. Only this letter could make him cry like a baby because he knew how much it hurts. It hurts him that he thought that Gabriella would find someone else that love her. Someone who would care about her. But Troy hoped that Gabriella would never forget about him because he could never forget her.

That night, when he got to his apartment building, he found a figure sitting at his doorsteps. He recognised the petite body and those dark curls. The figure looked up and smiled at him weakly.

"Gabriella?" Troy said suprisingly.

"Yeah. It's me," Gabriella said as he slowly moved closer to her.

"You...you're back."

"I got a job offer i couldn't refuse and i thought i'd come here to see you again."

"You're back for good this time?"

"Yeah. Is this a bad time cuz i could come back anytime you want"

"No. It's actually a great time." Troy smiled while staring deeply in her chocolate brown eyes.

"I missed you."

Troy didn't want to answer that. The answer was very abvious to him. He pushed Gabriella to the wall gently and kissed her soft lips while she played with his hair. Gabriella pulled back and smiled.

"I'm guessing you haven't found anyone else then," Troy asked.

"I thought i did but i didn't because no one could ever replace you in my heart. Like i said, it can never be-"

"The Way I Loved You" Troy said with Gabriella together. They smiled again and pressed their foreheads together after Troy gave Gabriella a kiss on her forehead.
