        you have moments where you think you're over it and then you have others where you cry on the bathroom floor wondering why you weren't good enough...
"one year. one year!" I said to myself while staring at a photo of me and Ricky. I was in a crop top and white jeans and he had a t-shirt on. He had his arms around me hugging me, I had just won nationals.
     I sighed, remembering the day he left. He had called me up, told me to come over since I didn't live too far. When I got there, his mom and sister had been packing up the car. "I'm so sorry Chlo.. But I gotta go" he had said. I was confused and stayed frozen. "W....what?" I finally responded. I remember him grabbing my hands. "Chloe look at me. Never forget me. Please. I'll come back one day, remember me. And fight for yourself."he said and took his sweatshirt off and handed it too me. Honestly, we weren't dating. We were best friends, we have been since we were kids.
       I remember watching him drive away in his small car in tears. I threw the picture down and put my head in my hands. God, we were amazing! He was amazing.
      The smile on my face disappeared and a tear fell, when I remembered that he never wrote back to any letters I sent. His cousin told me were he moved and I wrote to him cause his number was changed. He wrote back once. I sighed and remembered when I told myself I'd never write again.. Huh yeah!
       Next thing I know I was sitting at my white desk writing again.. Why did I do this!
20minutes later the thunder striking my house scared me. I looked up and realized it was 9:25 at night and pouring rain fell from the sky out in the dark night. I sighed and crumbled up my letter and threw it in the garbage can, were  all my other attempts flowed over  in the garbage can.
I decided to go to bed since I had school tomorrow, I put on a pink shirt and grey pants. I plugged my phone in and layed down.
     After awhile of thinking I finally dozed off.
