How Did I Leave Her?

"You promise?" she asked, her eyes swimming with tears she refused to let escape. She had a pathetic look, one that says 'Protect me, I'm vulnerable and alone.'

"Of course, I couldn't leave you for good now could I? And besides, it's not like if I win I won't ever get to visit home."

"I know, but those are visits. I want to know you'll come back for me and stay forever."

"I promise I will come back for you."

I don't know how I got in that car, but I did. I left, telling Lucy and myself that I probably wouldn't get very far anyway. Then One Direction happened. Then made it through Judges Houses. And live week one. And two. And three. And five. And seven. And ten. And then we got signed and three years flew by. I thought about Lucy commonly, but never did much about it. Then one day I got the news that Lucy was gone. Disappeared. No one knew where she had gone or why she had suddenly disappeared. No one but me. She was gone because she had finally given up hope I would come back for her. And now I would probably die without ever getting to see her again.

What do you think? Should I continue It? Tell me if you think so, it'll only take about one person to convince me, I don't put up much of a fight. :)
