"Why won't you come with me Hayles?"
It was now the last day of school, we were leaving first thing tomorrow morning. We'd just come out of our graduation ceremony and Oliver wouldn't leave me alone.
"Because I'm not just gonna drop everything to follow you living your dreams, I have my own."
"So you don't want me to go?"
"It's not that. Oliver you are free to make your own decisions, but I'm not going."
"I understand."
That's all he said, I went upstairs to pack and Hermione was waiting for me.
"So what's going to happen?" she asked.
"I'm not sure, but I'm not going to chase him or make him choose. Even if it hurts me."
"You always were more worried about other people's needs before your own."
"Yeah."
I didn't really get much sleep, I had too much on my mind. On the train I pretended like I was fine, like I wasn't breaking down inside. When Oliver and I were alone in the compartment I tried to talk to him. It didn't work.
"Oli talk to me."
"What do you want me to say Hayles."
"Just let your heart say what you can't say, speak up. Let your heart say what you won't say, speak up. Don't let the silence tear us away. 'Cause I can never tell, I can never tell. If you don't speak up."
"Hayleigh, I don't see how we can be together when I'm traveling."
"I agree. So I guess it's best we don't kid ourselves, and just go our seperate ways."
"Yeah."
The train pulled into the station and we walked to the platform.
"Goodbye Oliver." I kissed his cheek and left before my tears could betray me.
Harleigh and Hermione were waiting by the car. I put on a fake smile and joined them. Hermione was going to be staying with us for the summer since Harleigh's band was taking a break. When we got to the apartment I wasn't feeling so good.
"Hayles are you okay?" she asked me once we'd settled into our room.
"I think I have a stomach virus or something."
"You sure it's not more than a virus?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, is it possible you could be pregnant?"
"Um, I don't know."
