A/N: Hello! uhhh I think it’ll be happy maybe, again I haven’t written it yet...ONWARD! oh and neither do youtube in this

Will’s POV:

Escape. Escape from reality. Escape from caring. Escape from Life. I’ve lived in numerous cities, trying to escape. It hasn’t worked. I’ve lived in Europe, Africa, Asia, South America, North America, Oceania(that’s Australia btw but also a bunch of small island countries). It hasn’t worked. I’ve lived in Paris, London, New York, Vancouver, Sydney, Beijing, Tokyo, Chile, Cape Town, anywhere you can name, I’ve probably lived. I can speak a thousand languages(thats something I wanna be able to do). The only place that has worked, even if it was just for awhile, is Seattle(cliche I know)

But now he lives there. He, Jordan. The incredibly cute boy that I fell in love with. The incredibly cute boy that makes my heart pump faster when I even just think about him. The incredibly cute boy who saved me, just for awhile. The incredibly cute boy who fixed me. The incredibly cute boy who then broke me.

The plane landed with a jostle and a thump as we glided into the airport. I sighed. This was my billionth city. At least I could start over, again. As the plane parked, the clicks of seat belts being unfastened filled the small pressurized cabin of the plane. I slowly unfastened mine as people began rushing off the plane. I grabbed my luggage and slowly walked into the Sea-Tac airport. I walked out to my Uber(idk how Ubers work, we don’t have any) We got to the apartment I was staying at, I payed and walked in the building.

It wasn’t very fancy at all. Just a plain apartment in a fancy city. I got my keys and headed up. My apartment was on the top floor, so I could watch the sunrise and sunset and sky in general. #7.

The next morning, I woke up and explored the city. First, a job. Maybe in a bookstore? Yeah. Then, I wandered around looking for one. When I did, I walked in and the scent of newly printed books filled my nose but my eyes zeroed in on the hottest, cutest person I had ever seen. Ever. Chestnut blonde hair. A snapback. And a tattoo.

Then we dated. Best five months of my life. I was happy. I had escaped. I wasn’t broken anymore.

Then he left. Just like everyone else. I woke up and he wasn’t there. All that was left was his scent and a note.

Dear William,

I’m sorry. I’m leaving. I can’t tell you why but it’s a good reason. I’m so sorry. But I know you can do this. Remember that I love you. You are strong. And meet me there in 7 years.

Jordan

But he was wrong. I couldn’t do it and I wasn’t strong. I broke into a million shards. I lost pieces of myself, under couches and behind walls. And I still don’t have all the pieces.

7 years later exactly, here I am. In the city that was my sanctuary and the city that fixed me and broke me. The city that I got lost in. I’m not ready. I still haven’t escaped.

Nostalgia hits me as I walk towards our spot. It’s just the bookstore where we met but that one tiny plot of land holds so many memories. I sit down outside and wait.

“Hey Will.” The noise of my lover jerks me out of my stupor. I turn towards him. I don’t know how it’s possible but he looks even more stunning than when I first saw him. I get up and run towards him. I don’t even care that he broke me. My body slams his as my lips attach on to his. They taste just the way they used to, vanilla and chapstick(idk that’s what everyone else does)

“Why did you leave?” I ask.

“To fix myself.”

“Oh.”

I wouldn’t ever be able to fix myself but just touching him fixes me.

I’ve finally escaped.

 

A/N: I have no idea what that was but anyways, Happy Day where we celebrate a creepy ass bunny! Over 200 reads!

I just wanna say that I barely know you guys(well a few of you I feel like I know really well, you know who you are I think, we read each others stories and comment a lot) but I trust you guys a lot more than my parents and people I’ve known since I was born. Maybe because I don’t know anyone else irl who like the cube. Maybe it’s because you guys face the same obstacles as I do(idk like anxiety and crap) or maybe it’s because I get to start over with you guys. idk but yeah and I want you guys to know that if you need to talk or something, my inbox is always open or if you want to talk over skype, feel free to ask <3

Uhhh tell me if you enjoyed or want more…

 

我爱你 <3

 

See ya!
