I'm so glad you made time to see me

How's life? Tell me, how's your family?

I haven't seen them in a while

You've been good, busier than ever

We small talk, work and the weather

Your guard is up and I know why

Because the last time you saw me

Is still burned in the back of your mind

You gave me roses and I left them there to die

So this is me swallowin' my pride

Standin' in front of you sayin' I'm sorry for that night

And I go back to December all the time

It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you

Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine

I'd go back to December, turn around and make it alright

I go back to December all the time

These days, I haven't been sleepin'

Stayin' up playin' back myself leavin'

When your birthday passed and I didn't call

Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times

I watched you laughin' from the passenger's side

And realized I loved you in the fall

And then the cold came, the dark days

When fear crept into my mind

You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye

So this is me swallowin' my pride

Standin' in front of you sayin' I'm sorry for that night

And I go back to December all the time

It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you

Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine

I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind

I go back to December all the time

I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile

So good to me, so right

And how you held me in your arms that September night

The first time you ever saw me cry

Maybe this is wishful thinkin'

Probably mindless dreamin'

But if we loved again, I swear I'd love you right

I'd go back in time and change it, but I can't

So if the chain is on your door, I understand

But this is me swallowin' my pride

Standin' in front of you sayin' I'm sorry for that night

And I go back to December

It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you

Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine

I'd go back to December, turn around and make it alright

I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind

I go back to December all the time

All the time

Gabriella was on her bed in jean shorts and a tank top. It was sweltering out but Gabriella felt cold inside. She had broken up with Troy because he was spending most of his time at his job and finding ways to get scholarships. She felt confident about the breakup at first. She felt so neglected.

Her mother did tell her that she needed to rethink that she was right. What had she been getting ready for since she was a young girl? That made her think, and she realized that she was wrong in the wrong. She felt like a cold brown Christmas. She had to apologize to Troy, she knew he probably wouldn't take her back. She wouldn't take him back if it was her.

So she wrote him an email.

Dear Troy,

I am writing this to tell you I am sorry, and I was so wrong for the way our relationship ended. After a few days and help from my mother, I realized I have also blown people, including you, off so I could get ready for Standford. As you know, my dream since I was a little girl was to go to college. I am so sorry that I was a hypocrite and got mad at you for putting us below planning for the future. I have also done this in the past. I am heartbroken that we broke up so soon. Most high school relationships aren't long term but I had hoped we would have made it to senior prom at least.

You were the best first love I could have asked for. I am sorry for the grief I have caused you. If I could I would travel back in time to change the moment I broke up with you. I would never change the fact that we were together though.

Best wishes,

Gabriella
