Prologue
This is the worst day of your life.
You know that it's the worst day of your life because never in one day before have you experienced so many of those gut-wrenching, heart-breaking, earth-shattering emotions that over-hyped poets are always raving about. And you figure that can't be a good thing.
You're sat here now and you know that your life is never going to be the same again, however tragically clichéd that may sound.
Because your whole world has turned upside down and the option to right it again is out of your control.
That's up to a higher power now; some may call it God, personally you prefer fate.
Of course, rational-minded Leo would say that we have to trust those around us, those who know what they're doing.
Because you certainly don't.
You're just sat here, waiting ... waiting. Waiting for someone to come and tell you the news that is going to bring your world crashing down around your feet.
There's nothing you can do, there's nothing anyone can do. That's what you're certain of, no matter how many times you keep being told to stay positive.
There's no way that all three of you can come back from this, you know that. Far from being negative, you're just preparing yourself for the reality of the situation.
Because that's what you do.
Even if the reality is a concept you just can't bear.
You start to remember better times, times when he's laughed with you – at you, more often than not. Times when you've shared one-too-many glasses of wine. Times when you've looked into his eyes and seen something more, something that often resembles hope, not just the emptiness that you're sure you'd see in his eyes now.
If you were allowed to see him, that is.
You wish someone would come and tell you what was going on, you hate being stuck out here, on a chair that's so hard it's making your bottom numb.
Of course, Leo's gripping your hand in a reassuring manner, but you don't believe him when he tells you that everything is going to be okay.
Because you simply can't see how it can be.
Okay, just the prologue, but what do you think??
The rest of the story won't be in second person like this, don't worry. And I'm about halfway through the first proper chapter so I'll try and get that up this afternoon.
I should really be doing my coursework, but what the hell! ;)
Anyways, a new mulit-chap from me. I had to start one, I'm getting withdrawal symptoms from all the writing!
Review? :)
