Is this the end of our beginning - PART 1
Leela stood at the top of the steps getting ready to go for a jog as she spotted Cameron, fourteen years of memories came rushing back; she may have only been young but she did love him, they really did love each other but all that was over now; it was a new chapter in her life and she had moved on, she had to.
Though the pain and hurt was still there, maybe she would never truly stop feeling for him and she knew he felt the same, maybe there was always going to be a place in each other's hearts for the other, who know...
The fact is they could have had it all, but instead they got pulled apart by harsh reality.
A sad smile fell onto her lips as she walked down the steps, not taking her eyes of Cameron for a second, as he looked up their eyes connected as if he could feel her gaze on him.
His eyes had the same regret in them, they both wished things had been different; so different, Leela would never tell anyone but she cried; even now, she cried over him and their lost love and what they could have had.
Cameron was still watching her and their feet started moving towards each other's; really Leela had no clue why she was going to him and she was sure Cameron felt the same, but the magnetic pull between them was too strong to deny.
As Leela came to a stop in front of her ex lover she explored his facial features which were still as handsome as ever, he had changed a lot since she had last seen him, but then in some whys he hadn't changed a tall.
"Hey" Cameron said speaking first causing Leela to jump slightly at the sound of his voice; still so beautiful, all the promises and hopes filled her mind and she couldn't help the stray tear that fell, he was her only love and he had broken her, she had never really gotten over the heartache and pain he caused her and she was sure she never would.
"Hey baby" he said reaching out to wipe her fallen tear away, she closed her eyes at his gently touch.
But then reality set in and she let out a deep sigh, opening her eyes, she shook him off.
"Don't" Leela said.
"You haven't changed one bit" he told her "Still as beautiful as ever" Leela scoffed at this and shook her head.
"I mean it" Cameron told her grabbing her hand.
Leela stared down at their hands, telling herself to get a grip; it was too late for them.
"No, it's too late, you can't do this to me" Leela told him, pulling her hand free.
"Do what?" Cameron asked confused at her outburst.
"This" she pointed between them "You're messing with my head, I loved..." she shook her head "I still love you and I shouldn't, I can't"
"I still love you too, we can finally be together" Cameron said full of hope.
"No Cameron, don't you get it, it's been too long, we're not the same people anymore" Leela told him as she began walking past him only to be stopped by a hand grabbing her by the arm, stopping her.
"I'm sorry" he whispered.
"Me too" Leela said sadly as she walked away for him for the last time...
