In front of me
-A Sweetie Production-

To my girls, just had one of these moments, although this took a while to write, but I hope you enjoy it. Betty Point of View. Hope you enjoy.
I picked up the guitar and strummed on the strings slowly. A rhythm had been floating about in my head for the past few days and I just wanted to get it down somewhere. So, the music floated out through my fingertips to my guitar. I closed my eyes and let everything just come to me.
I slouched back onto my bed and looked at my Nightmare Before Christmas poster that was situated above it. I looked up at it, thinking about all the conversation that had been spent talking about it. All ancient history now. Words started floating into my head now, so I played my guitar with loving emotion and sang:
"With every single part of my being,
I couldn't really see for seeing,
What was standing in front of me the whole time,
If you only knew what you have done to me,
No one else can make me feel this way, nobody,
Wishing we could be like Jack and Sally once more,
All these teardrops falling from my eye,
Like the falls, they never dry,
Knowing you and I are no more,
With every single part of my being,
I couldn't really see for seeing,
What was standing in front of me the whole time,"
"That was beautiful, B," a voice I knew all too well said from the doorway. I shifted on my bed, hiding my face from view as I heard his footsteps approaching me and I sat up straight on my bed.
The bed sagged down to the side a bit and I looked through my hair and the face next to me. He was perfect. He roughled a hand through his hair, moving a single strand that fell over his eyes, his mouth tightly pinched together. He moved towards me and smiled towards me, although the smile did not reach his eyes. It broke my heart to see him this way.
"Sorry," he said, his voice cracking. I looked up for the first time, my red, puffy eyes staring into his deep, brown ones.
"What for? It was me who screwed everything up. I broke your heart as well as my own. I'm an idiot," I said looking down at my feet again, scared that my eyes would give away too many emotions.
A hand went under my chin and forced me to look up into the most wonderful face I have ever seen. "No matter what was said , I love you and I always have. Ever since I saw you for the first time across the sandwich cart. Betty, you are my soul mate. I know this now. You forever have my heart," Gio explained softly, his words caressing me as he spoke.
The tears now were flowing freely. I never thought that he would feel this way about me again, but it felt so good to know that he still did. It warmed my heart up just a little bit more.
Slowly and uncertainly, Gio wrapped his strong muscly arms around my fragile body. I had lost a stone and a half in weight since he left me. I was weak without him in more ways than one. My body started shaking uncontrollably. "I missed you," I whispered as he kissed my temple.
"I missed you too B. I need to ask you something. We were doing so well before this break. Please, move in with me? I would be the happiest man alive if you would do me this honour," he said as he held onto me tighter.
I cleared my throat, trying to speak but the tears had made it all clogged up. He looked at me with expectant eyes. "Yes! Yes, Gio, I'll move in with you," I exclaimed as I clung to him happily. I was happy. No more tears, no more crying, no more emptiness.
Okay there we go. Hope you enjoyed. Authors notes are a pain, I do not know why I insist on writing so many of them lol. Anyway for my Getty Girls as normal. Anything anyone wants me to write?
THE END!
