Disclaimer: No I don't own twilight. If I did, I would have gotten to meet Taylor Lautner in person and maybe, by some little chance, he would have fallen in love with me. *sigh*
A/N: PLEASE PLEASE REVIEW. SERIOUSLY. I'M DYING HERE. I'm really really sorry for the delay in updates but I have been so busy with school and I have virtually no time to write. Thank you to fanpire nikki for favoriting my story (: I thought no one was reading. Anyhoo, this chapter is again loosely based on something that happened to me a few days ago. Sigh.
Jacob and I had decided to go to Walmart because, One, we were bored. And two, Walmart was 5 minutes away from our house.
I was pushing the cart down the aisle when I saw him. Drew.
"Oh my god. Oh no. Oh no. Oh, please No." I said, a hint of hysteria in my voice.
"What's wrong?" asked Jacob, looking at me, concerned.
"It's him. Jacob, It's him." I said, closing my eyes. He hadn't seen me yet, thankfully.
"Who?"
"Drew." I said, concentrating on looking anywhere but at him. I knew he would see me if I didn't move. I ducked in a random aisle. Drew turned his head and looked. DAMMIT. I looked back at him, wondering how his big brown eyes had such an effect on me. I knew he knew it was me. I was trying really hard not to cry. He looked away for a moment. I couldn't take it anymore. He stared at me as I ran past him and out of the store, crying. I ran all the way home, Jacob following me. When I reached my house, I sprinted through the yard and into the woods to my favorite spot. It was a small clearing in the forest, a lone cherry tree in the middle of it. I flung myself beneath the cherry tree and cried. I tried at first to keep my sobs silent, but then I just gave up. The whole scene depicted sad beauty to me. A cherry tree all by itself, with a sad girl crying beneath it. There was nothing else beautiful about me at that moment. My mind was giving up on me and I felt a sense of drifting away into blissful nothingness, where I felt no emotion.
I woke up to find a butterfly perched on my hand. It flew away as soon as I moved my hand. A cherry blossom fell from the tree and landed on my cheek. I giggled quietly.
"Sad, isn't it?" a familiar voice said. I jumped. I turned and saw Drew, leaning against the tree behind me. I sat there, stunned. "How something so beautiful can waver and fall in a second." A tear fell down my cheek.
"Just go, Drew." I whispered.
"No. I know I've hurt you somehow and I don't like seeing you like this and knowing it's all my fault." he said, looking at me with his stupid big brown eyes.
"You don't care about me."
"I never meant to hurt you." he whispered.
"It doesn't matter, because in the end that's exactly what you did. You destroyed me. You broke my heart. All I ever did was love you. I'm sorry I can't be good enough for you. I love you. I want you more than anything. But I'm letting you go. I'm setting you free, and in a way, I'm setting myself free."
I take a step back, and let you go. Told you I'm not bulletproof now you know…
I kissed his cheek and walked away, taking one last glance at him.
She's strong enough to walk away, but broken enough to look back.
A tear rolled down my cheek as I stepped out of the clearing. I wiped it away and told myself that I would never cry over him again. I entered my room to find Jacob sitting on my bed.
"Hey." I said.
"Hey."
"You're probably wondering what happened between me and Drew." I said.
"Yeah. You could say that." he said, looking at me.
"I finally let him go. I had to. I've decided that I'm falling in love with someone else."
"Who would that be?" he asked, confused.
"You." I said, kissing him.
