It was over before it had begun.
They had kissed for the first time and before she knew it, Rachel was looking at him from across the playground. It seemed wrong to see him alone.
With his usual stance, hands in pockets and an apologetic grimace, he seemed to look at her with more love than she had ever seen before.
She felt that love, completely consumed with the feeling. Surrounded by her students and staff, all chanting the name of the school that was left in shambles behind them, she saw him far away. And yet, she had never felt closer to him.
To her Eddie.
Because he had been hers. For a short moment.
Their relationship had been short-lived but blissful. Rachel could never forget that bliss. She wouldn't forget him, not for a long time.
I have some less angsty posts coming up, I promise. They're just so easy to make angsty though...
