My heart was thumping fast and my feet were firmly planted on the ground. Eyes widened and lips quivered, that was all I felt right now. I wasn’t frightened by the fact t
I shut the fridge close after I’d grabbed the milk inside and placed it on the island counter. Grabbing the bowl from the cupboard, I placed it beside the box of cereal a
The weekend went by real quickly and it would only take a few more days before homecoming. Everyone was ecstatic and they were already preparing for the special event. As I wal
I would just pretend that nothing happened a while ago and the conversation I had with Maria didn’t occur. I didn’t think that she would be hanging out with my sist
Fright was an understatement if I would describe how I felt after Liam’s phone call. It was as if everything good that ever happened for the past minutes would instantly
I couldn’t wrap my head around what just occurred. I couldn’t believe everything that happened and wished these were just a nightmare I could wake up to. But no. It was so vivid, surreal, and unexpected. It was as if the world came falling on me, burdening my shoulders with too much pain I didn’t know how to endure. Those happy moments I made with the person I planned my future with just immediately vanished. Life had swept him away, unannounced. The worst thing was, I could’ve blamed him for what happened, but I couldn’t because we both made fucked up choices when we broke up. His child was the result of it. I think no matter how hard we turned our back on the past, it just caught up on us like it was meant to find us in our most sane state. You wouldn’t anticipate it either, you ju
Despite my dizzy state, I had the strength to examine his face. He was smiling at me and his wide, hazel eyes were dazzling, almost as if it was luring you to him. He looked like he was just as drunk as me, which was pretty great. I would have a drinking buddy for a night.“Why’d you come and sit beside me?” I asked my words were slurring.
As much as I wanted to stay at home and lay in bed to get rid of my horrible hangover, I tried to lift myself throughout the day. During my first few periods of class, I was having a difficult time concentrating, but since I didn’t want to fail because school was important to me, I kept myself together. It strained. I mean, forcing yourself to fight the yearning for comfort. How I wish I could tell Amanda and Emma the breakup that just occurred, but I was too caught up with my emotions that I blurted nothing on our way here. I remained silent because the heaviness in my heart wouldn’t let me talk. I kept shrugging the emotions off as I suppressed my tears.
Amanda, Emma, and I were inside the lounge while we watched the workers renovate the room. The guys weren’t here yet, I guess they were just downstairs having their lunch meal. Honestly, I didn’t care anymore about everything. I ran out of energy to deal with Danny and Lindsey, I didn’t care anymore about this lounge that we were planning to build, and I didn’t want to attend the homecoming because I was empty. I ran out of strength to give myself some happiness. There was just this hole dug in my heart that I didn’t know could or what could fill it. I was just so done with everything.
