"Okay Ellie!"
"What now?"
"You have to come with us to Hollywood! Paige needs our love and support!"
"Why doesn't she replace me with her brother? She likes him better than me!" She winced right after he said it, knowing it was still a touchy topic.
"It's still hockey season, but I wish it wasn't… I miss him still, so much," I said looking at the tiled floor, knowing that she doesn't want me to go back to Dylan.
"What about Eric?" There she goes again. She won't give up until Eric is the love of my life. But he likes jazz! Who likes jazz anymore?
" Ellie! I told you, just because he is gay, doesn't mean im going o automatically fall in love with him! Ok. Anyways, please come, Paige will pay for our tickets!" I pleaded about to give up when she replied with "FINE!"
I walked out of the Core satisfied. I had won!
The plane ride was making me restless. Ellie was asleep in the seat next to me, looking so peaceful. I was finally stating to relax, and drift into sound sleep when I heard crying from the row behind me. Everyone else in our area on the plane was asleep, so I felt like I had to go talk to him.
I walked over to where the sobs were coming from, and I found a black haired high school boy crying into his hands. Once he saw me, he instantly wiped away his tears and tried to pretend like he wasn't crying.
"What's wrong? I've dealt with my fair share of problems, maybe I can help," I asked the young boy, who slightly reminded me of myself when I was his age.
"It's just relationship problems… I'm gay, so you wouldn't understand," he said, ashamed for being himself.
"I actually would understand. I'm gay too. So what is troubling you?" I asked , feeling like I was comforting my clone from the past.
"Um, well Jacob and I were in love. Not fake in love, but in love, in love. I play soccer non-stop. It is my life, but Jacob is my everything. I got this college scholarship to play soccer, but it is in California. And he broke up with me, because he thought that I chose soccer over him. That I just stopped loving him. I will never stop loving that bastard. He is my everything. And now that I don't have him, I don't have anything," He rambled out tears coming to his eyes at the thought of Jacob.
" Me and Dylan have the same situation… He is in Switzerland perusing his hockey dream. Playing for Zurich HC. We both cried some, and it was hard, and it still is. We broke up even though we are still in love. I broke up with him, because it was too hard at the time, and I know that we will always end up back together. We have broken up twice, but we automatically gravitate towards each other. Once he is done in Switzerland, he will come back and we will get married. Dylan and I are sure that it will happen one day, so if you and Jacob truly love each other, you have nothing to worry about, because you to will end up together," The boy just sat and listened intently the whole time as I tried to fix his thoughts about his relationship.
He answered with a simple "Thanks".
"So , what Is your name even?" I asked him, realizing I had just been talking to a complete stranger for the last ten minutes.
"Corry. What is your name?" Corry, I liked that. Corry and Jacob, sounded niced together. Corry and Jacob, Jacob and Corry.
"Marco. Marco Del Rossi. Im in college, you look kind of young so I am guessing you are just stating college?"
He just nodded. "Nice to meet you Jacob," And with that, I went back to my seat, and finally was able to sleep at ease.
Sitting at the airport, waiting for paige to pick me and Ellie up.
Boring!
I got my magazine out and started to look for some hot celebrity to add to our posse.
"Oh! What about Taylor Kitch? We would all get along with him!" I exclaimed to Ellie. Ellie seemed distant. I watched her face to try to read her emotions, and her eyes started to water.
"What's wrong El? I asked hoping that she hadn't gone into another depressed cutting phase.
"Nothing, this LA air is just really dry.
