I'm sorry. So sorry I haven't written in the last couple of months its just I'm the type of writer that writes in short bursts. Anyways here's a short one-shot of Bridgette and Geoff for ABC Pies. Criticism is appreciated.
Life. It can be simple and complicated. Bridgette DiCorti understood that well. Her family was a middle class family, but they lived like they were first class for everything. They always needed the best clothes, tools, plates, everything you can name, but for Bridgette she didn't want any of that. She was different from her parents and siblings. She was the black sheep of the family. The outsider.
From an early age Bridgette understood her parents ways and decided to break free. She did surfing which was very low class for her family. She shopped at Wal-Mart. She even ate at fast food places ordering salads of course. She didn't mind that her parents were embarrassed of her. Bridgette never minded. She never grew angry at anyone. She was a mellow person.
Teardrops fell on the keyboard. "I…I can't write this Geoff. I can't write my autobiography." She began to cry harder. Soon arms wrapped around her drawing her closer to him.
"Shhh. Bridge don't cry babe. You know how I hate that, and you know your parents love you," Geoff said into her hair. She buried her face into his shoulder. Her sobs grew.
"No. No, they don't. They hate me! They can't even talk to me. They never call. My own sister doesn't talk to meee!" She held on to him tightly. She began to shiver, and soon began to calm down. Geoff gently grabbed her chin and made her look up to him. He stared into her eyes, and spoke.
"Bridgette, every parent loves there child no matter what. Even though they might not say it, they do love you. And if they don't I know someone that does love you, and that's me. I love you, Bridgette, and nothing is gonna change that."
She began to cry again, but they were tears of happiness. "Geoff," was all she could say before she began to kiss him. She wrapped her arms around his neck then pulled back, and whispered, "I love you too."
He smiled and playfully shot "What's that? I didn't hear anything." She laughed and kissed him again.
"Thanks for cheering me up, Geoff. It means a lot to me that you actually care." She got up and went to the kitchen to grab a Kleenex. "You're a very good boyfriend." She smiled and sat on his lap.
"Any day babe. Any day."
Super short. I didn't like it much, but at least I finished? Criticism appreciated.
