I sat in the cab head phones in my ears. One year ago I had left this place, one year ago I walked away from the one she loved, still loves. One year ago he ripped out my heart.

I can't believe I'm doing this.

Yes you do Katie. Gardners never walk away from their problems, we stick it through.
Face it leaving was a wussy move.

"Miss? Where to?" The cab driver asked

"Right in front of that pine tree." She answered.

He nods and grunts something incoherent.

I look out the window nodding her head to the beat of the music, looking down to my iPod, 11:30.

Lunch was about to start. Dammit, so much for keeping my coming back on the down-low.

"50 bucks miss." The cabbie said, I hand him the money and walk out.

Camp. Some memories here, more good than bad.

I make my way to the cabins, earning a few stares.

From outside the cabin I can hear Miranda screaming at one of my many siblings.

123 Katie open the door, I tell myself. And open, cue the stares.

"Katie?" Miranda asks in disbelief.

"The one and only." I reply with a smile.

Things were awkward for a while. I just stood at the entrance awkwardly, finally the conch went off and the kids were off, leaving me and Miranda.

"Where the hell were you? I spent a year trying to control these little bugers, and honey it wasn't easy!" Miranda say pulling me down on one of the bean bags in the cabin.

I couldn't help but chuckle, "Miranda I needed time off from everyone and-"

"Travis." She says. "Poor guy, you left him broken. He's barely talks to anyone. He's been extremely hard on himself, only focusing on training."

So that's what Travis has been up too, psshhh not that I care.

"C'mon Kate lets go to lunch and then you can explain why you left."

I smile and nod.

O.O.O

She left, and I will never forgive myself. If only I would've ignored the bet, I wouldn't still be heart broken. But then I would've never fallen in love with her.

Gods dammit Travis focus. I continued to beat up dummies, as I had done for the past year. Then the conch ran, grabbing the towel and Gatorade I cleaned myself up and took a swig of my drink. I put my shirt on, and walked to the Pavilion.

Conner comes running from the campfire pit and panting says," She's back bro, Katie's back."

O.O.O

When we got to the Pavilion there was an eerie silence.

And dozens of "Omigosh it's Katie." were murmured.

"Just ignore them Miranda whispered as we got our plates and offered food to the gods.

Then I saw him. He was sitting with Conner, absolutely oblivious to what his brother was saying, our eyes met and for a moment I remembered everything, the kisses and I love yous that were whispered under the moonlight. After 30 seconds he looked away and I snapped back to reality. Seeing him just made me want to sing. Without a second thought I just broke out into a familiar tune.

You took my heart and you held it in your mouth
And with a word all my love came rushing out
And every whisper, it's the worst,
Emptied out by a single word
There is a hollow in me now

I would always feel like he was the dictator of everything I would feel.
Every time he would say something sweet, I would absolutely melt.

So I put my faith in something unknown
I'm living on such sweet nothing
But I'm tired of hope with nothing to hold
I'm living on such sweet nothing

And it's hard to learn
And it's hard to love
When you're giving me such sweet nothing
Sweet nothing, sweet nothing
You're giving me such sweet nothing

And, being the fool I was I believed him. I had never been in love till I met him.
I felt so absorbed in this world of fantasy and desire, it never occurred to me, that it was false.

It isn't easy for me to let it go
Cause I've swallowed every single word
And every whisper, every sigh
Eats away this heart of mine
And there is a hollow in me now

After the break up, I never spoke about it, but I was miserable. I hated everything that had to do with love, I never talked to anyone, I basically lived in the shadows.

So I put my faith in something unknown
I'm living on such sweet nothing
But I'm tired of hope with nothing to hold
I'm living on such sweet nothing

And it's hard to learn
And it's hard to love
When you're giving me such sweet nothing
Sweet nothing, sweet nothing
You're giving me such sweet nothing

And it's not enough to tell me that you care
When we both know the words are empty air
You give me nothing

In the end he didn't really love me. I just thought he did. He would always tell me I was special. Special my ass. It meant nothing to him. But to me it did.

Uoooh
Uoooh
Uoooh
Nothing

Uoooh
Uoooh
Uoooh

Sweet nothing

Uoooh
Uoooh
Uoooh
Sweet nothing

By the end cheers erupted. Damn, I didn't know I had that in me.

The crowd was pure chaos of clapping and shouts. I search the crowd and see him, sitting there dumbstruck. Clearly, he wasn't expecting that, but then again neither was I.
