Chapter 9 - Too little Too Late.
I was young And in love. I gave you everything, But it wasn't enough. And now you wanna communicate
(You know it's just too little too late)
Go find someone else In letting you go.
I laid in bed all day, all night, waiting for the call that would hopefully determine the rest of my life. I knew I was being ridiculous. Hell, everyone who talked to me could figure that out. But, I can't just let this go. It's nothing, but it feels like something. I was told to never give up in life. I'm finally putting it to use. Right here, right now.
It's been a month, with nothing from him. Not a single call, text, message, E-mail, or a Flying owl with a letter to me. Nothing.
The only thing I was left with, was the words he spoke to me, when I felt he cared. He might. Just…not be able to fully grasp what's going on.
Ah, who the fuck am I kidding? Surely not myself. I'd be lying to myself if I thought that. Actually, I'd STILL be lying to myself. Everything I'm trying to convince myself, Every single word of it. It means nothing, only how well I can lie to myself. Which, OBVIOUSLY isn't well enough. I need to be taught how to lie to myself, before I can believe every ounce of bullshit I keep feeding myself. Or trying to at least.
Every day, every night, Every chance I got I'd stalk his Facebook page. Just so I can feel like he was actually talking to me, even if he was randomly commenting on stuff with his friends or family. It at least gave me something to live off of. The smallest thing, could do wonders for me. Absolute wonders.
I sat at my desk, is an absolute daze staring at his pictures. Jesus Christ, I've lost it.
I opened my E-mail to see if I had anything, before I noticed a message. One random message. I quickly clicked it open.
From: Michael G. November 14th 2009. At 1:03PM.
Hey, Stranger.
I was wondering if you wanted to hang out tonight, around 3:00ish.
Message me back. Bye.
I read over the message countless amounts of times before getting a text. I opened my phone.
From: Michael.
Hey, get my message?
Yeah.
From: Michael:
Do you wanna?
Yes.
From: Michael.
Sweet. I'll pick you up around 3...?
Sounds perfect :- )
From: Michael.
Awesome. See ya then. :- )
I couldn't get over the complete bliss I was feeling. He actually wanted to talk to me. He actually wanted to SEE me. I couldn't believe it. It was a miracle.
Now, all there is to do, is to forget everything that happened before today, wish for the best, and get ready. Sounds simple. It's not.
I glanced at my clock. 1:30PM. I still had enough time.
I quickly took a shower, letting water run down on me for countless minutes. I couldn't get over everything that happened, but I prayed Michael could, and hopefully would.
I was quickly torn away from my aggravating argument in my head, by my phone blaring to Cherry Pie by Warrant. I quickly peeked my head out of the shower, answering my phone.
"Hello?"
"Hey…Are…you in the shower…?" A confused voice asked.
"Yes. Why?"
"Because, you can hear the water running…anyways…What are you doing tonight?"
"Depends on who the hell is calling."
"It's Bella." She mumbled into the phone.
"OH! My Cherry pie baby!"
"What…?"
"Erm…Nothing. I have plans tonight. Why, what's up?" Bella was silent for what felt like 5 minutes, before finally talking.
"I was wondering if you wanted to hang out…What are you doing?"
"Um…Ihaveadateish." I quickly mumbled.
"WITH WHO?" She screeched into the phone.
"HOLY SHIT! How did you hear me?"
"You tend to speak fast. I learned to handle it. Now answer, Bitch. Who?"
"Gee thanks. Yourbrother."
"REALLY?"
"You seem surprised…" I mumbled.
"Kinda am, Hun."
"Thanks, now, I have to go. My eyes are burning with Shampoo. See ya later. Bye." I quickly closed my phone throwing it back onto my towels, before turning off the shower, and actually getting ready.
"My heart stopsWhen you look at meJust one touchNow, baby I believe This is realSo take a chance and Don't ever look back."
I glared at my phone. It has to go off in the middle of changing.
I opened my phone to a text.
From: Michael
Hey, We still on for tonight? :- )
Yesss, unless you don't want to…?
From: Michael
No way in HELL am I canceling.
