The house looked so big. . You know, towering over me…like it was ready to kill me for what I was about to do. Yeah, I know it was just a house, but I knew somehow she was going to get me back. Here I was standing at Sora's front gate shaking my head off. No, it wasn't cold. It was just that I had to break her heart, and of course I didn't want to.
Sora meant the world to me and here I was ruining her life. I couldn't believe I had gotten myself into this mess. I was going to tell her as soon as possible…whenever I got the guts to, and pray that she still loved me. Hopefully, she did.
I slowly and nervously walked up to her porch. The night was quiet, so you could hear crickets outside. As I reached the tope step the crickets got louder. It made me even more nervous like they were warning me too. "Shut up!" I yelled. All the sudden the door swung open. It was Sora.
I looked up at her. She tightened her robe around her. I walked up to her and hugged her. She hugged me back. Just having her there in my arms for the possibly last time gave me this feeling I had never felt before. You know, like I was going to burst out and cry for no reason? I broke off the embrace.
"Hi, Matt." She said quietly. I sighed nervously, which only made her look even more shocked. That hurt so much, seeing her so surprised.
"Hey. Listen, about that decision I chose-"
"Matt, I know you chose your job. Ricky just called me."
"Sora I didn't-"
"How could you? I thought you loved me! I thought I actually found someone that would risk everything for me! Someone who wouldn't break my heart! I thought you were different, Matt! I thought you cared!"
"I do, Sora, but listen I didn't-"
"I can't believe I believed you when you told me you had fallen in love with me." She sneered angrily. With that she slammed the door in my face. As I turned away I had hot tears running down my face.
"Yeah, and I thought you loved me." I said out loud before walking off.
~*~ When all our tears have reached the sea
Part of you will live in me
Way down deep inside my heart
The days keep coming without fail
A new wind is gonna find your sail
That's where your journey starts…~*~
~******************************************~
As
I slammed the door shut in his face my heart sank. I couldn't believe how hard
I was on him. He was trying to tell me something, but I wouldn't listen. What
if he hadn't chosen the job over me? I wiped the tears from my eyes. 'I guess
I'll never know.' I thought. Right as I thought that I overheard Matt outside.
"Yeah, and I thought you loved me." I could barely make out the words, but I was sure I had them right. I bit my lip and sat on the ground. I brushed a strand of my ginger hair out of my eyes and sighed.
He did love me. I just pushed him away. "Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! Stupid Sora!" I insulted myself. It was all my fault!
~*~You'll find better love, strong as it ever was
Deep as the river runs, warm as the morning sun
Please remember me …~*~
~*~Just like the waves down by the shore
We're gonna keep on coming back for more
Cause we don't ever wanna stop
Out in this brave new world we seek
Oh, the valleys and the peaks
And I can see you on the top ~*~
~*******************************~
Well,
that was it. Sora Takenouchi hated me. I hadn't chosen my job over her. I was
going to choose her over my damn job. I had always wanted to be a singer, but
you know, I guess right now nothing mattered to me except how I was gonna get
Sora back. You know something, though? I thought angels were supposed to be
there for you… not break your heart.
I
just hoped she wouldn't forget me. I loved her more than anything in the world.
She was the most important thing to me. If anything happened to her I would
most likely die. Ha, I wonder what Ricky would think if I died. Then
he'd probably love Sora. Why? Gossip.
I
sat down on a bench in the park in front of her house and pulled out my guitar.
I started to sing. Making up a song from the top of my head. I sang:
"You'll find better love, strong as it ever was
Deep as the river runs, warm as the morning sun
Please remember me."
"Remember me when you're out walkin'
When the snow falls high outside your door
And late at night when you're not sleepin'
And light falls across your floor
When I can't hurt you anymore."
I felt someone tap my shoulder. I turned around and looked up. It was Shiro. I smiled and turned back around as he sat down by me.
"What's up?"
I sighed. "Sora hates me, now." He smirked. "I wonder why? Has the asshole struck again?" He asked. I laughed and nodded.
"Yes, he has." I said looking over towards Shiro.
"Man, have you been crying?" I nodded. He smiled. "I'll give you a ride to the apartment, okay, Buddy?" I nodded again. So, I got up with Shiro and walked to his Porsche. Never letting Sora fade from my mind.
~*************************************************~
The next morning I got up from the sent of my mom making breakfast. I got up and put on a robe before walking downstairs. As I passed a mirror I noticed my eyes were blood shot from crying. I guess I really loved Matt.
"Sora, sweetie, can you go get the mail?" My mom asked.
"I can, but I don't want to." I joked as I walked outside to get the mail. She smiled as I closed the door. It was warmer than it had been that fall. I picked up a ton of letters, bills, and junk. Finally, one letter caught my eye. I sat the others on the top of my car and read that one letter.
Sora,
You'll find better love, strong as it ever was
Deep as the river runs, warm as the morning sun
Please remember me.
Love Always and For Eternity,
Your,
