the reviews are slow, and I miss them :(
The song in here Is Broken Promise Ring- The Ataris
Tristans Pov
She gave me a letter but as much as I hate to admit it, it was true, all of it. I cried, made up some lame excuse that there was something in my eyes. Id go to her house Saturday nights, and we'd laugh the nights through. Id call her just wanting to hear her voice. I almost had forgotten that we weren't together.
~~I really wanna call you, but I know that it's not right.
I probably shouldn't tell you but I dreamed of you last night.
I guess I'm not prepared to say...
Goodbye, so long, farewell, I won't be seeing you again~~
So I gradually stopped seeing her, calling her, I even went the long mile and treated her as every one else, no one special. I was afraid. I remember our calls being filled with nothing but our breaths, I started talking about Cristy in fear of blurting out "I love you." because that would ruin it, ruin what we have been working for.
~~You told me that you loved me, I started tearing down those walls.
I really started to trust you but you set me up to take the fall.
I guess I'm not prepared to say...
Goodbye, so long, farewell, I won't be seeing you again~~
I realized this wouldn't work. I cant be her friend, just her friend. So I had to cut all ties with her and that meant everything. No more movie nights, no more calls, no more calling her Mary. If this friendship went on someone would bound to get hurt. I didn't want her to get hurt- vice versa.
Of course there was the occasional stares when she wasn't looking, the nights wasted just thinking about her. But that was it.
Sure I went out with girls after our breakup, wed kiss but that was all. No one could compare to her, No one had the chance to compare to her because they were no competition.
~~I guess that I'm wrong for falling in love,
But you're still the one that I'm dreaming of.
I guess that it's you I want to hold onto~~
So here I am after the grad ceremony just staring at her. Her hair is longer and the blue graduation uniform brought out her eyes, she had the same smile. After all these months she still could take my breath away. I couldn't just leave like this, it wouldn't be fair. I had to tell her, she deserves to know.
"Congratulations Mary." Her eyes sparkled.
"Mary?" She laughed and so did I. I missed this.
"What college are you going to?" I asked lamely already knowing already she was going to Yale.
"Yale."
"Ah, great choice, Princeton." She looked to the ground. I had to tell her now, its now or never Dugrey.
"Yeah I just wanted to tell you I did."
"Did?"
"Love you, that is." a sad smile painted her features.
"I know, I did too." She sighed and said she wasn't good with goodbyes.
We hugged and she pulled away tears in her eyes. She ran a hand through her hair and said in a low voice there was something in her eyes. I laughed remembering that day. She kissed my cheek and left. I watched as she made a turn at the corner and she was gone.
ok review!!!
and no this isn't the end yet...
