chapter one
longing
i see the way he looks at her.
he doesn't look at me that way.
i notice the way his touch lingers over her skin,
moving over it as if she's fragile glass that might break at the slightest sudden touch.
i know i shouldn't feel this way.
i can't help it.
the feeling of love is one that can't be replicated.
no matter how hard you may try you just can't replicate what once was.
what once was the love of michael wheeler.
we were doing so well, he was finally going to get over her.
he was finally going to be mine.
but she came back.
she came back for him.
he loved me like no one else had.
but he loved her too.
i saw it.
the lingering touches we once shared, the hugs, the words.
they were for her.
all of it was for her.
i shouldn't feel that way about my best friend.
but i just can't help it.
he was there for me when no one else was.
even if he didn't know it,
he was there.
he made me feel things no one else had.
no one else will.
i understand how my mother feels now.
to be there for someone who's not truly yours.
to feel inferior or insecure.
left wondering if you were enough to satisfy them,
wondering why they left you with such longing.
csette tapes !
my first chapter!
i haven't written in a while so this is a big step.
i actually planned this out so it feels a bit more difficult to write.
also, i was supposed to post this on the first but, i couldn't find time.
i hope you enjoyed this chapter!
have a nice day!
