Always You

1: First sight

Lucas was in his apartment waiting for his girlfriend to arrive, he was resting in his sofa just laying back, with his phone on his hand, just in case she texted or call. He has prepared a romantic dinner, he got her a ring, planning on propose to her. Even they only dated for 8 months, he loves her like crazy. He met her in a dating cite, she was all he has ever dreamed of, she likes everything he likes, from food to tv shows. Even thought when they first met she was slightly different, but he liked her all the way. They started hanging out fast, lucas was a lonely guy, not many friends, most of his family lives far away. He doesn't go out to much, prefers just staying at home and she was like that too, but when they started dating, she was going out every Friday and such. He just ignored that and kept trying to adapt to her, he liked her that much. she was so different to him, it's like the person he was texting was not this girl at all, but he just thought she will get there at some point, it couldn't all be a lie. 

His leg kept bouncing on the floor, he was anxious. he grabbed his leg and squeezed it. "come on, relax" he said to himself. he stands up and went to the window to look outside. The city lights and the cars calmed him. Then his phone started vibrating, he runs to it and it was her, he answers happy.

"hey babe"

"Hi, yes, sorry, but are you a familiar of miss Linda?" a male voice speaks through the phone and a ambulance sounds in the background.

His hearth stopped, he fast gets all the info and ran to the hospital. She was pronounce dead at 9:14 pm on a Wednesday. All her family was there. the funeral was 3 days later. He was devastated, he couldn't eat or sleep well. He visits her grave every Sunday. There's always a pair of new flowers, that was not from him. Probably a family member. 3 Months has passed and yet Lucas was stuck on her memory, all the photos from them in his apartment all the memories hunt him. he had the ring in his hands just playing with it between his fingers. His friend Sam was over, trying to up his humor.

"You know that girl Bethany was her name?" he throws himself next to him on the sofa with a bowl of popcorn. " I think she likes me men, what should I do?" he bumps his shoulder with his elbow.

Lucas was looking at a small dust falling on the carpet, he heard his friend in the distance. "hm? what about her?" he said

"Lucas? are you even listening to me? come on men, you need to wake up, it's been three whole months, and I get it you liked her, but she was not that into you"

I turn to look at him, kind of mad by his comment, but his always been like this, says what is in his mind. "really? she's dead Sam"

"fine, sorry, but it pains me to see you like this, what do you say if we go out this Saturday"

I took a deep breath, if I don't agree he will keep bothering me until I do. "fine"

"Yes, my place, just a regular gathering, ok?"

"Yes, now go to your place, you are making a whole mess in mine"

Sam leaves and I was left with my thoughts again, maybe all call him to come back, he can be a pain in the ass, but he always talks to me and brings me back from the hole I fill myself in. Maybe I just need to visit Lindas grave. I got ready and went out, I bring the ring with me, maybe if I propose to her grave, I'll feel better. why I am like this, why can't I just move on. I arrive, walked in my typical way, at this point I can walk this place with my eyes closed. Once there I saw her name on the stone, I miss her so much, her skin, her perfume, her hair. I get on a little with the memories, it's been long since I don't have sex. i don't even masturbate. I got in one knee and bring the ring out.

"Linda Garcia will-"

"What are you doing?" a female voice pops in my back. I turn around nervous and scared. But what I see now, it gives chills down my spine, I was in shock, I couldn't believe my eyes. how? I saw her in the hospital bed. It was Linda, but with dark hair and pink tips, glasses and all gothic clothes. I fast hugged her tightly, I smelled her hair, she smelled different, she's smelling like coffee and strawberries. "Get off me" she pushes me hard.

"Babe is me? what's going on? I thought you were dead"

She looks at me in a sad and disappointment way. "I'm not linda" she walks pass me and puts a red rose on the grave. Then she walks away. I can't believe my eyes, what is this a bad joke? I followed her. 

"What are you doing?" she said stopping in the bus stop.

"What do you mean you are not linda? you look just like her, is this a prank or something"

"Do I really look like linda" she opens her arms and gives me a twirl so I can fully look at her. She does dress different and has like a whole changed aura, setting aside that she also has bigger boobs and ass. Linda was your typical skinny blonde girl. But their faces, where the same.

"ok well, not completely, but who are you, how come I never met you, saying that you are not linda"

"My name is Kloe and me and Lin have, well had a complicated relationship" The bus arrived, and she was getting on when I grabbed her arm. "Hey, i need to get in the bus, what are you doing?"

I just stood there and watched her; I need to see her face longer. I looked at her lips, I wish I can kiss her. without knowing I was getting closer to her. she slaps me right away. "What do you think you are doing?" she said mad. The bus leaves. "Great now I have to walk to the station, can you please let go, you are creeping me out"

I let her go, I feel so confused, how I never knew linda had a twin sister, why she never told me. I met her family, and she was never in the party's. I watched her as she walks away and I have this urge to just follow her, she was the closest thing to linda. Maybe she can help me heal and forget her by remembering her. I started running towards her. "Wait!" I said to her.

"great" she stops walking. "What do you want?"

"I can take you, you miss the bus because of me, so I can take you whatever you want to go"

she looks at me serious. "i need to go to the moon"

I laugh. why that made me laughed, it was not that funny. "Really?" she gave me a side smile, she changed from a bothered face to a happy one all of the sudden. "Fine, give me your phone"

I do what she says, she puts her address in my phone. we walk together to my car, and it was the most awkward walk in my whole life. I open the door for her, before she goes in, she took a deep breath. I run to the driver's side and go in fast. I started the car. 

"are you cold?" I ask her

"no I'm fine" she looks nervous, i look at her up and down, but her tights distract me. "excuse me?" she notice my glare. "can you look at the road, you making anxious"

"sorry" I concentrate on the GPS and drove her to her place, she lives in a small apartment complex. I park in front of the building.

"thanks" she said and fast gets out of the car. I keep feeling that urge to follow her, so I turn of my car and do so. She looks back at me and smiles a little. "are you seriously going to keep following me?"

"Yes, i guess, well I need to make sure you arrive safe to your apartment"

"right" she presses the elevator bottom, and we wait for the doors to open, we go in and she press the 3 floor. We go out and we walk in a long hallway full of doors, her door was the number 33, we take out her keys and opens. "ok, I'm safe you can go"

I just stood there again, without any idea on what to do or say, i just want to be with her. "ok, this is going to sound weird or sad, but the truth is, I just want to be with you, I really miss your sister and I've been going to a rough phase, you see, I loved her a lot, I didn't got the time to say goodbye and now, you are here and I feel that I need to be with you so I can feel closer to her and actually get a chance to detach her from my heart"

She just looks at me with a straight face, she looks inside and then back at me. "do you drink coffee?"

"Yes, i actually love coffee"

"Come on" she walks inside her place. Yes, I convince her, hopefully she can explain why Linda didn't told me about her and if linda talked about me with her. So many questions. I kind of feel happy.
