Five of Diamonds

Roy's POV:

You would want me to move on—to see other people—but after you left I couldn't do it anymore. You were the first person I truly loved, and now I can't bring myself to go back to the pointlessness of dating. Instead, I carry your picture in my pocket, so wherever I go you will be over my heart. And on those lonely nights in the bar, I look at your face and pretend you're beside me.

We are in different worlds, but part of me refuses to admit it—the one that won't let me leave your picture.
