Say You Love Me
Age is a big issue these days but is their really an age to true love?
"Say you love me or walk away."
Stefen stood in awkward silence as his friends snickered behind him.
"Sydney this isn't exactly the best time for"
Sydney slapped him and his friends began to snicker harder enjoying the drama.
"Tell me you love me or never speak to me again."
A bold friend leaned forward and said in a dismissive voice. "Hey, jail bait get gone. My boy Stefen here can do much better than you." He sneered at her and she took a step back in disgust.
"Why don't you just go fuck yourself."
His face turned red and he took a step towards her. She immediately took a few steps back in fear that he might actually be stupid enough to strike her.
Stefen put a hand on his chest and gestured for him to back off or else.
"Are you going to pick this jail bait over us man?"
Stefen lowered his hand and tried to reason with his friends vigorously.
"She's not bad." He said.
"She's young!" One said.
"She's only four years younger." Stefen commented.
The bold one snorted. "Whatever man pick or were out."
Stefen stood in between his friends and Sydney looking anxious.
"I really"
"You know what! Were out." His friends began to walk away but he called them and they stopped.
"This shouldn't be hard for you Stefen." The bold one yelled.
Sydney stood quiet hoping he loved her as much as he told her he did.
Then something clicked inside her. This was pathetic. She was acting like a child, immature and scared. Tears brimmed her in her chocolate-brown eyes and she began to hesitantly turn around.
Stefen noticed her tears and began to reach out to her. "No. I'm being stupid. I just.. I didn't know. I'm sorry." Then she ran towards her truck across the street. Tears blurring her vision she didn't see the large Chevy truck heading down the road. The loud horn woke her from her daze but also froze her. The truck screeched to a halt to late and she was hurtled down the street.
"Sydney!"
The group of friends ran behind Stefen all being on the football team they made it to her in no time.
"Call the cops or something man!"
"No, call the hospital!"
"What the hell do something!"
Stefen leaned over Sydney's still figure and he began to weep. "Sydney?"
She opened her eyes and smiled her hand reached out to him and with her last breath she whispered three words he was to chicken to admit. "I love you."
The bold one stood to the rear of them and began to cry. This was his fault. The death of an innocent all his fault. He lowered his head ashamed and broken.
Stefen took a deep breath and closed her eye lids. "She's gone."
The next day he joined Sydney in death because a life without her was like death.
Stefen stood in awkward silence as his friends snickered behind him.
