Authors Note: Okay so I kind of haven't updated this fic in ages, and found
it on my computer and decided to. Also there was a chapter before this
that I sorta lost lol...so if my memory is correct Landon made her cry, I
forget how...I'm really sorry, but I don't think it was THAT important
lol...lets hope so.
Another thing..in past "Author Notes" I talk about ...*tear* Brand New Walk.
I had to sadly remove that from this site or actually was forced to,
because they don't "approve" of fics that talk about Celebrities, but until
I get kicked off AGAIN I'll continue this one. If you want to read Brand
New Walk email me and I'll send you the link to it.
Also in this chapter I have Landon write a song by 3 Doors Down.
Chapter 7- Be Like That
It was about 5 minutes after Mandy was completely gone that it sunk in what I did. I was in a complete stat of shock. I slumped in the couch and lifelessly grabbed the remote. I randomly flipped through channels. Trying, hoping, to get away from what just happened. But of course like everything- That wouldn't be possible.
I somehow arrived at HBO. And that's when I saw Mandy. Her face was exactly the same, except she had blonde hair. I stared trying to know what to think of this all. Another guy had his arm around her. It was a pain like none other in my stomach and heart. I didn't know what it was at first (the pain). But I soon figured it out. It was pure jealousy, the jealousy that made people do stupid things. Within a matter of seconds I fiercely turned the TV off.
I was upstairs, seeing the guy with his arm around Mandy. I didn't know what I was doing at first but I just grabbed the pen and my journal right next to my bed. I sat on the bed, and began to writing. At first I wrote exactly how I felt. But that was no use. I then switched to what I wanted most at the moment. I wanted to be that guy holding Mandy.
He spends his nights in California
Watching the stars on the big screen.
The guy I was writing about was me. Besides the California part.
And then he lies awake and he wonders
Why can't that be me?
You see in his life he's filled with all these good intentions.
I then began to get deeper into my life. Not just about Mandy. I wrote about how I left Beaufort.
He's left a lot of things he'd rather not mention.
Just before he says goodnight-
He looks up with a little smile at me and says-
If I could be like that
I would give anything
Just to live on day in those shoes
If I could be like that
What would I do?
What would I do?
For some reason I poured my whole life into it.
Now in dreams-
We run.
I started to go on about my days at college. Days when I'd walk through the park there and see the same lady there. Every day.
She spends her days up in the North Park
Watching the people as they pass
All the lady wanted was a friend. A new Life.
And all she wants is just a little peace dream
Is that too much to ask?
With a safe home
And a warm bed
On a quiet little street
All she wants is just that something to hold on to
That's all she needs.
If I could be like that
I would give anything
Just to live on day in those shoes
If I could be like that
What would I do?
What would I do?
I couldn't stop anymore it was like a disease.
Yeah hey yeah.
Falling into their hopes and dreams
We run away.
If I could be like that
I would give anything
Just to live on day in those shoes
If I could be like that
What would I do?
What would I do
I put the pen down. Immediately knowing what to do. "If I want to be around or even with Mandy. I'm going to." I took my ring off and put it inside the drawer. "Sorry Jamie." And I rushed downstairs.
TBC!!!!!!
