a/n America Hughes^^

america's pov

everybody in this damned town knew me as the girl who got left behind. why? because of him. we had been together for 3 years, and after high school we moved into our own apartment together.

but oh so surprisingly he left one day and never came back. i remember that day always.

it was wednesday so i had work. luke was gone by the time i had to go, but it wasn't anything abnormal i mean he had work at 6, as for me i had work at 9.

my shift ended at 4 and i came home to a still empty apartment. i was slightly confused because luke got out at 1? i neverminded the thought and assumed he went out with his friends michael, calum & ashton.

minutes turned into hours. hours into days. days into months. months into years. 6 years to be exact, it was like he fell of the face of the planet. he came back once, but only to take his things, and leave me a letter that would forever leave me heart broken. it read

Dear America,
i wish I could've done this in person with you but this is goodbye. i have a life to live and i can't go on the adventures that await me if im stuck at a no good job, and with you. it sounds harsh i know, but i really do love you, its just i need someone who is willing to move along with me like that.
good bye & much love,
- Luke xx

end of flashback.

and to this day i vowed i'd never let some boy get in my way of happiness.

that was until the whispers on the street said "did you hear luke is back?"
