Chapter 15: Man Who Can't Be Moved
~ Caleb's POV
Going Back to the corner where I first saw you
Gonna camp in my sleeping bag I'm not gonna move
Got some words on cardboard, got your picture in my hand
saying, "if you see this girl can you tell her where I am
Maybe she'll come to her senses, and finally realize what she's giving up. She told me this is all she ever wanted…Did I understand wrong?
Some try to hand me money, they don't understand
I'm not broke I'm just a broken hearted man
I know it makes no sense but what else can I do
How can I move on when I'm still in love with you
I think back to all of our moments, the good and the bad. That girl was pretty much all I really had.
~ Flashback
Tonight was the night before my wedding. Tomorrow we'd finally have an unbreakable bond, although by law, I treat it as my newborn child. Skylar and I were just about to go to sleep, we lay there quietly in the dark, I then break the silence with a question.
"What if I told you the past was nothing but a dream, if it was all make belief like goblins and ghouls?
Would you believe me?", whispered Caleb.
"No", I answered simply
"Why not? Wouldn't things seem safer?"
"Yes… but then I wouldn't have had you"
~ End of Flashback
Everything felt just too good to be true, my past did feel like a dream, at the time Skylar didn't want it to be one, but if it was all the pain that made her run, I would find away to make our past with, Chase, and all the horrible fights I dread have the sweet ability of non-existence.
Cause If one day you wake up and find your missing me
and your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet
And you'll see me waiting for you on our corner of the street
So I'm not moving,
I'm not moving
My brothers and their girlfriends all tell me I shouldn't dwell in my unhappiness, but I know if Skylar was looking for me, this is the first place she would come. So I will stay grounded… I will not move.
I think back to the day I proposed to her she seemed so overwhelmed with joy, combination of the greatest emotions known to man… Did I see wrong?
~ Flashback
She didn't know what was going on tonight… and that's exactly how I want it. I want her reaction to be real, I want to know what's going on in her head that exact moment, and finally I want to hear her answer.
"Don't tell that you chickening out now, Caleb" Pogue sighed
"I don't know anymore. What if she doesn't say yes?" I started ranting
"Caleb… shut up. You're a great guy; she's stupid if she doesn't say yes. We both know that the chick digs ya, so shut up, get up there and make your announcement NOW" Pogue yelled at me, he may come of sounding mean, but I know he means well anyway.
I made the way over to the "DJ" aka Tyler, and took the mike
He gave me a questioning look and I just nodded my head to answer his question.
"If I can just please have your attention please, that would be great" I tried to reason with the crowd, but they ignored me like they would ignore, a vomiting drunk
Reid then took the mike from me.
"Hey SHUT UP! You two stop making out and turn your attention to the front!" he yelled into the mike
"Umm, thanks Reid, I chuckled awkwardly. I have an announcement to make, well more like a question to ask. Directed to one person… Skylar Anetta Hardman."
The crowd separated into two sides, and then I saw my beautiful goddess smiling up at me. I look at Pogue, Reid, and Tyler, my brothers; they all gave me the same smile, the same look, which told me I'm doing the right thing
"Skye you don't realize how happy you make me. When I wake up your always right there beside me. You're the only one I could imagine growing old with, the only woman I could ever imagine loving, and caring for my children." I didn't notice I had made my way down from the stage, to stand in front of Skylar.
She was crying, and smiling lovingly at me at the same time, and that's when I knew. She's the one.
"So I would like to take this time to ask you, Skylar Anetta Hardman, will you take the honor of becoming Skylar Anetta Danvers, and become my wife?" I asked her hopefully, not caring about the tears flowing from my face
~ End Flashback
At that very moment was when she said yes, I thought we were going to be together forever… Did I think wrong?
Policeman says, "son you can't stay here"
I said, "there's someone I'm waiting for If it's a day, a month, a year"
Gotta stand my ground even if it rains or snows
If she changes her mind this is the first place she will go
People talk about the guy that's waiting on a girl
There are no holes in his shoes but a big hole in his world
Maybe I'll get famous as the man who can't be moved
Maybe you won't mean to but you'll see me on the news
And you'll come running to the corner
cause you'll know it's just for you
I'm the man who can't be moved
"Come on Caleb… don't sit here in the dark waiting for a girl, don't forget about all your other priorities." Reid scolded me. So far that's all I've been doing… sitting in the room drowning my sorrows with alcohol.
"Reid she's not just a girl, she was the girl, and if you don't like the way I'm dealing with things you can just go." I retorted bitterly
Reid just sighed then shook his head and left my room without a word.
I understand that I'm not the best person you would want to be around. But my brothers are failing to understand my loss… I just need… time. But as of now, if Skylar is ever looking for me, she'll know where to find me. I will stay here until the time has come to move on. I'm the man who can't be moved.
Cause If one day you wake up and find your missing me
and your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be
Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet
And you'll see me waiting for you on our corner of the street
So I'm not moving,
I'm not moving,
I'm not moving,
I'm not moving
