The Killing

Chapter Seven

Dustin called my phone at three this morning.

I slid the screen to answer "Um H...Hello?"

He started his apology with "I'm overly sorry for doing that I don't know what came over me I wish I could take it back, I want you to be with me forever but..."

I became worried and slowly said "But....but what?"

He sighed and began with "Kaylinn you know that we were supposed last forever and you were the most perfect thing that's happened to me in forever...."

I began to deeply cry and said "Supposed to?" "W...What did I do?"

"It's not you, if its anything it's me." He said

I told him "B...but I'm fine you didn't hurt me!!!"

"Yeah not yet! I don't want to hurt you more then I already have. This is for the best of us both." He told me

I felt my heart break into a million pieces "I don't want this to go away we can change together, I can't live without you."

"I love you always and forever and I'll never forget you." He said

I told him "B...but this doesn't have to end no not yet!"

He hung up the phone. I cried so much that night that I had bloodshot eyes the next morning I got on the bus for school and didn't talk to anybody for the entire day.
I saw Dustin but I just looked away and paid attention in class, he tried to talk to me but I always find a way around him.

I came home and curled into a ball of blankets and cried for yet another day I barely slept or anything I stopped coming to school and stayed in my room thinking about what Dustin had told me that night it was going to haunt me forever until he called me again.
