Chapter 17: I'm sorry but it's over

Disclaimer: Don't own em or the song.

~~~~~Three weeks later~~~~~

Margaret's P.O.V.

      Oh my god I can't believe I'm gonna do this. I know it's the right thing to do but I don't wanna do it. I mean Jamie is a great guy and we've been dating for the past three weeks --he's kind, sweet, smart, and not to mention hot. Although what can I say he's just not Zack. Ah well gotta get this bitch over with sooner or later.

Zack's P.O.V.

      I can't believe it she's actually moved on. I mean I always thought she would get with someone but I thought it would be me. Come on man don't kid yourself, you really think she's gonna get with you after you rejected her time and time again? No of course not.

~~~~~Jamie's Apartment~~~~~

      Margaret knocked on the door and Jamie opened it--she walked in they kissed then he offered her a seat on the couch. She sat down knowing what she was about to do was gonna hurt someone she cared for a lot...

Margaret (in a sad tone): Jamie, we need to talk.

Jamie: Ya okay what is it?

Margaret: There is no easy way to say this...um...I'm sorry but it's over.

Jamie (panic in his voice): What do you mean...over?

Margaret: I can't see you anymore. I'm so sorry, it's over.

Jamie: But why? I mean we were doing great. Everything is great between us.

Margaret (sad): It seems that way now but I never told you this, I'm in love with someone else. I thought I was over him but I'm not and in the long run you will find someone better that will deserve you and love you like you've never been loved before, I promise. Please don't be mad.....I hope that one day you can forgive me and that we can be friends...please say something.

Jamie (holding back tears): One day I can forgive you but not now and I don't think we can be friends. I'm glad though that you were honest and that you didn't lead me on any further with the hopes of a future together. Anyway the best thing for me now is that you leave, please leave now... (In a whisper) just go.

      When he said that Margaret got up, walked over to the door, opened it, and before she left she took one last glance at him and was gone. It was about seven p.m. Zane had closed the shop hours ago but Margaret had a key. She went to the shop and started working on her long overdue motorcycle "pampering". Before she started she turned on the radio then got back to work. The song called "Slide" by Dido filled the room.

"SLIDE"

Even on a day like this when you're crawling on the floor

Reaching for the phone to ring anyone who knows you anymore

It's alright to make mistakes, you're only human

Inside everybody's hiding something

Staring at the same four walls, have you tried to help yourself

The rings around your eyes they don't hide, that you need to get some rest

It's all right to make mistakes you're only human

Inside everybody's hiding something

Take time to catch your breath and choose your moment

Don't Slide

Even at a time like this when the morning seems so far

Think that pain belongs to you but it's happened to us all

It's all right to make mistakes you're only human

Inside everybody's hiding something

Take time to catch your breath and choose your moment

Don't slide

You brought this on yourself and it's high time you left it there

Lie here and rest your head and dream of something else instead

Don't Slide
