The party didn't end up lasting to much longer, and I was happy about it. I didn't want to be in this place any longer.
Sarah was already asleep when we got home. I was exhausted, and wanted to do the same.
"Good night Xander," my mom hugged me goodnight like she always did.
"Good night, love you," I responded back.
I laid in bed, but I knew sleep wasn't going to come anytime soon. My mind just kept going back to Ana. What is she going to decide? What if she does marry him? I know I told her to, but I didn't really want that. I want to marry her. I want to have kids with her, and grow old with her.
What if I ruined everything with what I said? Dammit I shouldn't have said it.
I needed to talk to her. To tell her that i was sorry, and that i dont want her to marry him.
In the morning I will, I kept telling myself.

I woke up in the morning, rushing off to school earlier than usual. Maybe Ana would show up early too.
But I was wrong. I waited, and waited but she never showed. Every morning for the past year she's been here. Where is she now?
Does that mean she made her decision? She's choosing him over me. Couldn't say I blame her.
Matt comes from a rich successful family, I come from a bankrupt widow. The only thing I could ever offer her is love, and who knows maybe Matt can do that also.
