Its funny how we try SO hard..and then in the blink of an eye, in the pain of an instant, it's all gone. But then again...Maybe it's not funny at all.
I walked out of my school where warm weather welcomed me. A perfect time to take a well needed walk. I headed towards the downhill path at the end of the parking lot where I saw something that made me want to puke. James was with Bethany. They were talking and laughing but the thing I noticed most is that they were holding hands. My throat swelled up as I tried to hold back the tears. And I turned and quickly walked in the other direction.
I walked a long way until I didn't recognize my surroundings. The tears were getting harder to hold back and I collapsed on a nearby park bench. They just kept flowing. I looked around me wiping the tears from my eyes. I was in a beautiful park. There were a million park benches surrounding a huge fountain.
There was a glimmer of happiness as I looked at the beauty around. I started to cheer up realizing that things couldn't get any worse than they already were. The happiness left as quickly as it came as I looked over and saw James and Bethany again. They were on the other side of the fountain talking closely. It all came at once. Hurt, anger, sadness, and tears. I got up to leave taking one last look at James and Bethany. Everything stopped for a second. James' headed turned quickly towards Bethany. Had he been looking at me? I snapped out of it. I wasn't supposed to care anymore. I walked in a random direction not knowing where I was going. My vision was blurred by tears.
"Brittany" I heard someone whisper.
I looked around and saw no one so I kept walking.
"Brittany Dawn." someone whispered again.
"WHAT?" I screamed in frustration.
"Shh. Walk faster for a second."
I sighed and sped up the littlest possible.
"God, you're stubborn." they said.
There was a rustling behind me so I looked. James was there a few steps behind me his head down.
"Don't look at me, it's not safe."
I turned around and kept walking tears still running down my face. I decided not to question anything anymore. Nothing made sense.
"Why are you acting like this? I didn't say I didn't want to be with you. I just said..." his voice trailed off.
"That you didn't love me. It was two years James."
"Hold on. What do you mean was?" he yelled.
I gasped as he grabbed hold of my wrist and dragged me into a big cluster of trees nearby. He squatted and pulled me down with him. I surveyed the anger in his eyes and didn't know what else to do but to scream. So I did. His eyes went wide and he put his hand over my mouth.
"Please stop screaming."
He waited until I did to remove his hand.
"Why are you saying was? We never broke up Brittany."
"I'll make it official now. We're over."
I stood up to make my way out of the trees.
"I love you. Does that make a difference?" he whispered.
"Are you crazy? No it doesn't make a difference! I'm not gonna sit here and wait while you try to make up your mind."
I stormed out of the trees and took a right.
"I never changed my mind...Look its complicated." he followed a little ways behind me whispering. "I just need time to explain this to you. Come to my house tomorrow afternoon."
I just kept walking.
