Seven days

Pain. Anger. Sorrow. Self-hatred. That's what I felt. I hated him. I didn't know what I had been thinking. I was smart and logical. How things had gotten out of hand were beyond me.

All I know was that I had wished for someone to love me, hold me just for a while and he'd been there. But he was all wrong for me. No one could ever know that I had been with him for a week. Just a week.

It was a relatively normal day. There were exactly seven days before school would end and I would officially be free for three whole months. Sounded like heaven. No studying for at least a couple of weeks. I decided that a month would be enough to go through the new textbooks.

I walked down to the lake and sat for a while in silence. It felt good to be worry free. And I loved the feeling of being outside in the sun with fresh air swirling around me.

In my own world, I hadn't noticed that someone else had sat next to me.

The first three days we sat in silence. I hadn't chased him away. He hadn't insulted me.

The fourth day he broke the silence. We spoke about things like our family and our homes. We didn't talk about anything that could break out into an argument.

The fifth day we held hands.

The sixth day my head was on his shoulder while I had my afternoon nap.

The seventh and final day, he asked for a kiss. One kiss that I had freely given. One kiss that left me wallowing in self-hate and resentment. Afterwards he had said that we would be together again in three months, that we could have a future in two years.

But seven days is not enough for me to forget what had passed. Seven days didn't change much. All it did was change how I felt about myself.

The day we left on the train I had ignored him and sat with my friends.

When we came back I would ensure that contact with him would be down to the minimum.
