'Amu'
I sat comfortably in my new grey cushioned fabric seats of my new navy blue truck with a touch screen radio and back-up camera. My sixteen-year-old sister, Ami, sat sleeping beside me. Her and I had decided to surprise my boyfriend at his college- which was 3 days away, by plane 3 hours, but with my car payments and our house payments, I couldn't have afford two plane tickets, and I wouldn't dare leave Ami alone. So here we were pulling up to the parking lot that lead to the boys dorms, it was 10:18, so he would hopefully be getting into bed. Instead of waking up my sister I got out and locked the doors, if he wasn't in yet I would get a hotel and we would sleep there for the night and surprise him tomorrow. It wouldn't be this hard if I would have just went to this school, but I wanted to stay with Ami, so I just went to the community college at my home town.
I got in a silver elevator with a flat ugly blue carpeting, I hit floor 3 and waited patiently as the calming music floated through the air, I looked at my phone and smiled as I read his text.
Love you baby, wish I could see you. I'm gonna go to bed,K.
I hit reply and began typing.
Okay baby, I love you, too. Goodnight. Tell Kukai I said goodnight.
as the elevator reached the second floor I received his text.
Goodnight. And Kukai said Goodnight, too.
When I reached my destination, I remembered the first time I came here, I met his crazy roommate Kukai, who loved sports, and we all had one hell of a time. I looked around and frowned as I saw Kukai walking towards the room, to busy staring at his phone to notice me, but if he just got off the elevator then how did he say goodnight?, I thought. My eye's widened and heart sunk when I heard a girl's voice giggle and playfully say, "Ikuto, stop it!". Without a second thought I opened the door and walked in, confirming my fear, the girl sat there naked. Ikuto, who was also naked, was hugging her and licking her neck. When he saw me he hopped up, "Amu, what are you doing here?" he asked fear ran through his voice like a tune to a song. I could feel the burning in the back of my eye's begin to rip its way out, but I held it back making there feel like something was choking me, "Apparently interrupting something." I manged to squeeze out, it sounded like the squeak of inferior mouse to me. Anger had filled my blood at first, but left and was replaced with sadness, I turned away preparing to leave when Ikuto said "Amu wait!" he grabbed my hand. I turned back around feeling the warm, salty tears run down my face. I snatched my hand back and backed away towards the door "Don't touch me." I said through clenched teeth with a disgusted tone. I ran out the door hearing him shout out for me. I passed Kukai, who tried to grab me but I successfully maneuvered around him. In all of my life I had never cried. Not when I was born or when I broke my arm. But now they didn't stop coming. I reached the car and heard Ikuto in the lobby yelling for me. I made Ami get up and in the driver's seat. We were pulling out as he had reached the place we had parked and was running to the car, I had began throwing things he had given me that I kept in the car like my Fall Out Boy CD and the tiny stuffed animal I'd kept on the dash-board, I then began throwing out the jewelry he had given me like the pink bead bracelet he made and told me to never take off as long as we were in a relationship and his class ring, I went to grab my engagement ring but my sister grabbed my hand "Not this." tears staining my face I nodded and we pulled out in to the freeway I remember when he gave me the engagement ring, he was fixing to leave for his college when he got on his knee and said, "I want to be with you forever. Far or close, I will never hurt or leave you. Please, when we get out of college, marry me." and of course I said yes, like a fool. My sister and I talked and I told her everything that had happened, she nodded, she looked genuinely surprised I was crying. Before I knew it we had hit the interstate and were getting close to home when my truck shut off. We were out of gas.
