Together Again

Chapter 6 ~ Again

In one slow fluent motion, Piper rushed us into the change room and held my hand over my head, twirling me in a circle, dipping me in for a kiss and then twirling me against a bench so I could set me stuff down.

Piper was already changed into a tight one piece bathing suit. It was navy blue with Copenhagen blue sides that hugged her figure perfectly.

She still wore her hair down' it was a beautiful flowing mop of perfection, brushed into a curly figure but still had those loose strands.

Piper had some strands in front of her face almost over her eye but still tucked behind her ear enough to piss me off and make me want to gently move her hair and kiss the birthmark that lives on the middle of her forehead.

Her hair flowed down just past the bottom of her breasts and curled is slight waves down her back, beautiful dirty blonde and light brown hair mixing into an orangey brown with golden streaks and strands.

Carefully peeking out of the girls change room I caught a glimpse of Mrs. Ecclestone with her bright red and purple tinted hair, while her bangs were a sheer white compared to the rest. She was an older woman, around her late 30's or early 40's. She had a sharp nose and large blue eyes.

She was wearing a bright red cross, one piece swimsuit to show that she was the lifeguard.

Turning around I emptied my bag looking for my matching bathing suit.

For a week or so since we got the make-over I have been assistant life guard since I've had the most safety patrol and life guard training in all of our class.

I looked at the chair she was sitting on, it was not the classic life guard chair 7 feet in the air, it was just a small beach chair that I hoped would one day be mine.

The webbing of the chair was navy blue and was warmed by the shining sun.

Turning around I sat on the bench pulling off my clothes and changing slowly so I had the most time to think.

Half way through putting my hair into a high pony tail for swimming, I felt something fall out of my pocket of my bag and into my lap.

It was the first song I'd written about Ben, and the only copy belonged to Ben. There was a sticky note on the sheet.

Jessica, I miss you, and I wanted you to have this back, it belongs in the person that was creative enough to write its hands. –Love Benjamin Joseph Rizzo.

Reading over the music, horrible music I might add, tears started to form in my eyes.

It's not your fault, it's all on me. I didn't know what I was doing. You trusted me and I let you down. I don't know what I was thinking, being with you would never work out. Not if I'll never see you again. I cared too much wearing my heart on my sleeve, I can't change who I am, I'd understand if you never wanna see my again. I got confused with my feelings and the truth. And now that I know what's going on I have one thing to say...

I love you, I miss you. I can't stand it with or with you. I think about you every second, of every minute, of every hour, of every day, of every month, of every year. Someday I want to say "I do. Oh. Oh, oh, oooh. I love the way you smile at me. The way you make me love-struck, I love you, I'll love you until the end of time, my heart is empty without you, oh, oh, ohoooh.

It's all my fault, I had no idea what was going on, I should have said something when I had the chance. Instead of you letting me down, you forgot something very important to us. Something I've been preparing for, for weeks now. That could change my life forever. I was so scared but when you ditched you took all that pressure off me. I thought I could trust you after all we've been through together, there's only 1 thing I have to say to you...
