After the awkward rehearsal where Ace brought his girlfriend and introduced her, I left with Peter. I was excited about dinner tonight because I wanted to ask Peter to go away with me for the weekend. I asked him but all he did was just stare at me. 

I ran out, heart broken, and headed off towards somewhere. My feet led me to Central Park where I ran into Gene who was just sitting there too. My tears fell harder at that point but I didn't care. I felt Gene's arms go around me and I cried on his shoulder. When he asked me what was wrong, I managed to stammer it out finally. 

"Paul, come on. Let's try to salvage the rest of this day, okay?" I heard Gene say. He was upset too but he managed to pull me to my feet and over to the french fry seller. We share a container as well as a large soda on the walk back to our respective homes. He waits until I go inside before heading to his house.

"Call me in an hour, okay? " 

Even though I agree, I wind up taking a shower and crying myself to sleep. I'm with Gene on the fact that I will never fall in love because I refuse to have my heart broken again. Little do I know I won't be able to stay true to this statement. My future will show up within the next few years even though I will almost mess that up within the first week.

Love and romance stinks at the moment.
