Christina's POV
After we finish eating and paying for our food, we leave the restaurant to go home. I kiss Beck goodbye and he grabs onto my arm and looks me sternly in the eyes.
"Are you okay?" He asks.
I pause, debating whether I should tell the truth or not. But I've already started lying about this it's not like I can just stop.
"Yes." I force a fake smile and kiss him again, "I'm fine."
He sighs and walks away and I get in the car. I look out the window as my mom starts to drive. The words I'm fine are so ironic. It's supposed to mean that your okay but pretty much everyone who says it isn't. The words echo in my head and I wonder if I should just tell Beck. How would they even know that I told him?
My mom drives back to our house and I start to walk up to my room.
"Is something wrong?" My mom asks.
"No. I'm fine." I lie.
I walk up to my room and sit on the edge of my bed. I sigh. Graduation is supposed to be one of the best days of your lives. So many doors are supposed to be opened for you but I can only think of the ones that have been closed.
My thoughts are interrupted when my phone rings. I don't answer. A couple minutes later if rings again. I don't answer. I turn of my ringer and set it on my night stand. I put my face in my hands and close my eyes, trying to forget all the bad things that have happened, trying not to think about what's happening now, and trying not to imagine what will happen in the future.
Beck's POV
I'm currently laying on my roof, looking at the stars. Usually I do this with Christina on warm nights but I need some time to myself. I know something is up with Christina. Sometimes she's fine and other times she's not. I just don't know why she's not telling me anything. We usually tell each other everything. I wish I knew what she was going through.
I stare up at the moon, almost full. I look at the Little Dipper and the Big Dipper. I studied constellations in 10th grade and entered in the science fair. Christina called it a nerd fest. That's back when she was mean to me. And now we're dating. It's so ironic.
It starts to get chilly out so I go back inside. I shut my window and lay on my bed. I stare at the ceiling and think about my future. I got excepted into Harvard but Christina didn't so we're going to the University of Florida. Christina said that I could go to Harvard without her but the weather is great in Florida and I'm happy with Christina.
I find myself starting to fall asleep. I close my eyes and rest my hands at my sides and fall asleep.
