A/N: Thanks again to my faithful reviewer, Dacymarie!
Everything was in front of us. The whole world. We listed the places we were going to travel to and debated about which ones we should see first. Once we were out of school, we could do whatever we wanted.
I remember days of the weekend in which I would just lie on my bed and think about what we could do together. Surely we would still be together. It was a given. And no one would ever know. It would forever be a secret.
It wasn't so. It wasn't a secret to most, and we certainly weren't still together. Suddenly, all of those things I had dreamed about disappeared. It was as sudden as the popping of a balloon. One moment it was there, and the next it was just gone, leaving a gaping hole in my chest. I came to an instant awareness that I had nothing in front of me. Nothing to look forward to, nothing to chase after, and no one to love. I was very alone and without purpose. I had no options and no sanity. Everything had left along with him.
A/N: Wouldn't that suck? To think you have everything, and then one day, poof! All of that is gone. You're on your own. I imagine that's what it's like to graduate from high school. Ug. Dreading that. Anyway, please review and tell me what you think!
