Never should have happened

My girls

*Kate's POV*

He walked out so suddenly he was almost sprinting towards the front door. "Where are you going?" I asked with quality parts of anger and confusion. He turned back for a second and looked soulfully into my eyes, his bright blue eyes shining at me. He walked over to me and planted a kiss lovingly onto my forehead, "I love you Kate, forever and always." And as quickly as that, he was gone. He left through the front door without a second thought, and I was left alone. I didn't mind being alone, but ever since I was younger, I'd always felt strangely scared of being alone. So Liam and I spent almost every moment together, and had ever since we had met. I was so scared to lose him, and he knew it. But I would be alright on my own for a few hours, wouldn't I?

I gave up on my thoughts and decided to take a shower, it was long and hot. I must have been in the shower for nearly half an hour when I realised. I was busy analysing song lyrics in my head as I sung them out so loudly, filling each word with emotion. The music continued to play in the bathroom, 'like a rock I float, sweat and conversations seep into my bones.' That had always been one of my favourite lines, because rocks didn't float, he was sinking down, failing at trying to be happy. I could relate to that. "Stop it." I said forcefully to myself, I shouldn't be thinking negatively, I am lucky. I decided I'd try to catch up with some of my old friends from school, since we left that hell hole we didn't really talk much anymore. But I knew that right now, I needed to talk to someone, and they were the best people that I could hope for.

From Kate
To Brianna and Meg:
Hey girls, do you want to catch up today?

From Brianna
To the group:
Yeah, where were you thinking?

From Meg
To the group:
I've already eaten, but I'm happy to have coffee.

From Kate
To the group:
Are you guys near the city? I'm still at my apartment

From Meg
To the group:
I'm back home visiting my parents, can we meet somewhere like Altona or?

From Brianna
To the group:
How about Williamstown? That little cafe that we used to go to?

From Meg
To the group:
Sounds good be there in half an hour x

From Kate
To the group:
Okay see you girls soon x

Half an hour later, after much struggle picking out the right outfit, and trying to find my keys, I finally made it to Williamstown. We always went to the same little cafe, but only for the cakes. The coffee was alright, and the service was average, but the cakes they served were absolutely spectacular. I walked into the sparsely lit cafe and saw one of the biggest smiles I had ever known, it was Brianna. I had known Brianna for basically as long as I could remember. We met in primary school but grew apart, only to become friends again in high school. She had been there for me through everything, my ex boyfriends, my downwards spiral, and now she was still here for me when I needed a break. "Hey, how are you?" I said as I sat across from her at the table. "I'm good, but you're not, what's wrong?" She always knew exactly how I was feeling, and I'm guessing that she knew that something was up by the bandaid on my head, and my red and bloodshot eyes. "I'll wait till Meg gets here, you know she is always late."

When Meg joined us and sat down, I started talking. I told them about everything. Liam and I fighting, how suddenly left, and how scared I was to be alone. Brianna joked that he might want to get married, and I laughed. "Are you kidding? We have been together for five years and not once has he ever even brought it up!" I continued laughing, and Brianna joined in. I was laughing so loud that I didn't even realise till later on, that Meg wasn't laughing with us. "Yeah you guys will never get married, just grow old together." Brianna said so seriously it frustrated me. I wanted to be with him together, but I didn't know if I wanted to get married. And I for sure knew that Liam didn't, he always told me he liked being free, and didn't want to be tied down. I knew being with me was already difficult for him, he never wanted to be in a serious relationship, but we were made for each other. Even if he never proposed I knew that he would never leave me, would he?
