Divergent High

ｆｏｒｔｙ－ｔｗｏ

Saturday morning at 9:30, my alarm goes off. I yawn and sit up. I get out of bed and go to my bathroom to take a shower.

15 minutes later, I walk out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around my body and another wrapped around my hair.

I head to my closet and pick out a black tank top, jeans, a floral infinity scarf, and black Keds. I walk out of my closet and over to my makeup vanity. I take my partially dry hair out of the towel and blow dry it. After it's all the way dry, I use a flat iron to curl it. For makeup, I just put on pink/purple/red eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara, blush, and pink/red lipstick. I put on a gold heart necklace, a gold bracelet with a few diamonds, an arrow ring, and a two-finger ring that says 'Love'.

I run down the stairs and walk to the kitchen. I pour a bowl of Life cereal and then pour milk over it. I grab a spoon and sit down at the island. I take my time eating, scrolling through Instagram and Twitter.

At 10:20, I decide that I should probably get going. I'm meeting the gang at North Avenue Beach and then we're going to walk down to Navy Pier, and then walk back to North Avenue Beach to watch the sunset and build a bonfire.

As I'm driving to North Avenue Beach, You and I by One Direction comes on the radio. I start to sing along.

I figured it out
I figured it out from black and white
Seconds and hours
Maybe they had to take some time

I know how it goes
I know how it goes for wrong and right
Silence and sound
Did they ever hold each other
Tight like us
Did they ever fight like us

You & I
We don't want to be like them
We can make it till the end
Nothing can come between
You & I
Not even the gods above
Could separate the two of us
No nothing can come between
You & I
Oohh You & I

I figured it out
Saw the mistakes of up and down
Meet in the middle
There's always room for common ground

I see what it's like
I see what it's like for day and night
Never together
Cause they see things in a different light
Like us
They never tried like us

You & I
We don't want to be like them
We can make it till the end
Nothing can come between
You & I
Not even the gods above
Could separate the two of us

'Cause You & I

We don't want to be like them
We can make it till the end
Nothing can come between You & I
Not even the gods above
Could separate the two of us
No nothing can come between
You & I

You & I

Oohh You & I [x2]

We can make it if we try
You & I

Oohh you & I
You & I

I pull into a parking spot just as the song ends.

I turn my car off and take off my seatbelt. Then the tears come. This is the first time since we broke up that I've really cried about Tobias. I pull my knees up to my chest and wrap my arms around my legs.

I miss Tobias. I miss hanging out with him. I miss laughing with him. I miss waking up next to him on a couch the morning after Zeke and Uriah's parties. I miss kissing him. I miss hugging him. I miss everything about him.
