It worries me to see how distant we have become after I uttered those three words in the dream like slumber an after effect of our activities of the night. I had to go that very next day he wanted to say goodbye no pressure no conforming just the want to feel each other once more before I left to go to the other side of the country.

Yet he froze went quiet then fell asleep just because I said three formed grunts that made those words. I left, he wasn't even at the airport so Bianca, Cameron and dad waved me off but it wasn't the same with out Patrick been there, it just wasn't.

the plane ride was boring the orange juice been the only good part of the whole damn stinking trip to the east coast where I had hoped I would be happy, but it was already off to a horrible start.

Two weeks of no phone calls from anyone, until there was a phone call it was Bianca. She was talking about Cameron and I started thinking about that bad ass that stole my heart, Patrick. What happened to him or to us? Had he decided he hated me so much he could not even ring? You would think that even though he was from Australia he would know how to pick up a phone and dial some numbers.

Three weeks of no calls, yet my studies are going good I am above most the students in my journalism class, but I just doesn't make up for the fact that I am lonely. I got to my dorm room and I saw a parcel on my bed my roommate, Alex told me I had come today. I quickly go to the box and open it. Inside there were gifts, notes, photos and at the bottom, a tambourine with a small note on it in his handwriting saying, he was sorry he missed the planes over the way he acted and he loved me. I smiled when I picked up the tambourine its slight jingle of metal could be heard. I heard the door open and close thinking it was Alex going outside, until I felt his lips on my neck. I could tell he was smirking and I felt his lips ghost over my skin as he whispered if I liked it and he was sorry and last of all that he loved me. I turned around and hugged him. Every thing felt good every thing was right nothing could get me down in his arms.
