The girl who seemed unbreakable,
Broke
The girl who seemed so strong
Crumbled
The girl who always laughed
Cried
The girl who never stopped trying
Gave up
She turned around and said
"I can't do this anymore"
Shelby's POV
I walked around the school, getting away from Luce after the night when Daniel came. It's not like he's the worst person I've ever met, it's just . . . Seeing him made me remember the night. That stupid night.
I walked along the sand of the beach, the water over lapping my toes. Why can't everything go perfectly? I thought to myself.
I looked out into the water, thought about Gabby and how I hooked her up with one of my friends. They had a good night, but they were more of friends than lovers.
I shook my head. Doesn't matter what you think. You're just an only child who can't even say hello without making it sound so harsh.
I looked further into the ocean. It seemed to be calling my name. My legs moved away from the blue ocean, but it seemed to get closer before my eyes. My legs, and the helm of my shirt were now wet. I didn't take notice of who could see, but that would be no one. I've got no one on the world.
"Shelby!" I turned around and saw Miles calling for me. "What are you doing? Get back here!"
I looked down at my legs –only to see water, shells and seaweed.
My legs moved forward when I wanted to move back to Miles. Miles was a pretty cool guy –kind of cute as well.
"Shelby! The light is fading, that's when sharks come!"
I opened my mouth to complain that I couldn't, but when I opened my mouth, all that came out was oxygen that I didn't need.
"Shelby!"
I kept on walking towards the sea. I smiled as it came closer. I saw my life staring back at me. I saw myself in a wedding dress, getting married to a guy whose face was blurred. I saw my two children –Sam and Kayla. I was Miles's eyes in my way.
"I see it." I whispered. As soon as I said it, I regretted each word. I saw blood, pain, my death. I was lying on the floor, my chest bleeding badly –only it wasn't me. It was a girl who wore quote a bit of layers and had square rimmed purple glasses.
"I can't be like that." I said, taking one more step to slipping off the sand bank.
"Shelby!" Was the last word I heard come out of Miles's mouth.
