My bruises lightened and even though I was starting to look like myself again, I felt off. Presenting PLG early January was painful, more painful than my accident. But I sucked it up and did it. That was two weeks ago. Landon and I have been broken up for two weeks now. We haven't posted each other or talked to one another for two weeks. I kept our pictures on my page and he kept them on his.
Taking Danni Lane's class wasn't as freeing as I'd hoped. I thought about Landon the entire time because he was the reason why I was there. Even when she posted videos of us doing the routines on her page, I couldn't gush like I wanted because I couldn't tell him.
"I had a blast dancing with thee Danni Lane and you've been moping around like we never had this big opportunity." Slightly glancing her way makes me more upset. Faking like things are normal pains me. Just a couple of weeks ago I was planning to go on a trip with him and now we aren't anymore.
"Please don't look at me like that you're going to make me cry... Do you want me to get him?" I give a small smirk and she sighs lying next to me.
"I'm sorry that Landon broke up with you. I've tried to ask Justin, but he keeps saying that Landon won't tell him everything only parts."
"Yeah well, that's Landon for you." I say quietly.
"You really like him, don't you?" I don't look her way as I play with my hands.
"I do. I've been trying to rack my brain about why he suddenly didn't want to be with me anymore."
"You will go crazy trying to think of every single reason why. You know what I say?" She pauses waiting for me to say something. I mumble a few incoherent words letting her know I'm listening to her.
"I say forget him. You start talking to other people and don't even think about him watch he'll be upset."
"I don't want to talk to other people." I whine like a child. I cross my arms feeling frustrated. "I didn't want to start dating until college but I just—I loved being around Landon." I turn on my stomach to try and get rid of the feeling of butterflies thinking about him. "Even now—when I think about him, I can feel my heart pumping." I sigh not knowing how else to describe my feelings.
"I know that feeling—I feel that way about Justin." She says. She looks at me like she wants to say something, but she quickly looks away. "I hope you guys talk soon."
"Maybe it's for the best." I mumble.
"What are you going to do when your parents go out of town? Maybe we can do something." She suggests. I know she's trying to get my mind off things. My parents let me know about a mini vacation up in Boyne, Michigan. Something about a couple's trip—I didn't even know they had friends they work so much.
"I don't know. It's been a while since they've both been gone and now that I'm old enough to stay alone..." I shrug to finish my answer.
"We can hang, I know it'll be fun for me to spend the entire weekend here." She offers.
