A few days later, I was sitting on my grandparent's tan couch, reading one of my favorite books. I ran my fingers over the quotes that I had highlighted the numerous times that I had read it and sighed.
Liam was going to be gone for a week or two, something work related. I didn't know, and I didn't bother to care. Now, don't get me wrong, things were going great with him, but I just needed a break. Some alone time.
I set my worn out book down and began to get ready for work. I started with my make up, letting my mind drift as I smoothed my coverup all over my face and down my neck.
Next was my eyeliner, which for once, I actually managed to get it right on just the second try. Yay me! I decided against eyeshadow, and pit a few swipes of mascara on my eyelashes.
I left the bathroom, and went into my room, opening the closest doors I reminded myself that I needed to go shopping for some summer clothes.
"Oh hello again!" I happily said to one of our regular customers. I handed her a menu and quickly got her a glass of water with a lime, just like she always ordered it.
She gave the menu back to me as soon as I set the glass on a coaster and she informed me that she would like a burger and fries. I nodded and smiled asking if that's all she wanted and she smiled back and nodded.
I went and told the chef her order and he turned around and gave me a weird look for just a few seconds, then he went back to his normal self.
"Sure thing Hun!" He yelled back over the sound of him cooking.
' Huh.. That was kinda weird..' I thought to myself before returning to the tables to help more customers.
Later that night, I sat with my back against the wall in my room, counting my money. After I counted it three times, I neatly tucked half of the amount into an envelope so I could put it in the bank later. I put the rest of it in my jewelry box, and a certain necklace caught my attention.
It had a small silver chain with a dark blue moon on it, and as I stared at it, I tried not to think about how I had gotten it but it was no use, I just couldn't push away the memory.
I laughed as Blue lightly kissed the top of my nose.
"Oh does that tickle? Hmm?" He asked as he continued to do it. I just laughed in response. I loved the way he voice sounded when he got in this mood.
"Oh fine then don't answer me," he pouted and I just grinned up at him. I took a second to look him in the eyes before I tilted my head up and kissed him. His lips were so soft and I loved how he pulled me closer to him. I ran my fingers through his hair and I ran out of breath first and pulled away from him.
"There. Are you happy now?" I asked before I started giggling.
"Of course I am. I'm offended that you would think that I wasn't happy!" He responded before pulling me back into him, and I put my face into his shoulder, breathing in his scent.
"I love you.." I told him quietly, and I didn't think he would hear me, but he did.
"I love you too. Oh! I have to give you something!" He excitedly shouted and I winced from how loud his voice was.
"Okay what is it?" I asked as I pulled away. He put his hand in his pocket for a moment, searching for something. He finally pulled out a beautiful necklace, with a silver chain and a glass moon attached. My heart raced. It was so beautiful!
"I want you to have this," he whispered in my ear as he attempted to clasp the necklace for me but ended up dropping it in the grass.
We both laughed as I picked it up and clasped it around my neck.
"I love you." A kiss from his lips placed on my left cheek. I stayed silent.
"I love you." A kiss on my right cheek. I stayed quiet.
"I love you." His lips placed this kiss on my forehead. This time I didn't stay quiet.
"Blue... I love you too."
"I love you," Blue whispered as he leaned towards me, with his eyes fluttering shut. This last kiss, was placed on my lips. And it was Heaven to me.
Dazed, I blinked and looked around. I was in my room. Blue was nowhere near me, and I felt my heart speed up as I blinked away the tears building in my eyes.
I needed to forget about him. He was killing me and he didn't even know it. How was I supposed to stop loving him when he kept sending those stupid letters?
Sighing internally, I decided to go to the post office to see if I had a letter from Blue. I did.
Bella,
It's just me again. What am I supposed to say? I can't continue lying to myself. I miss you Bella. I miss you and I was so stupid for letting you go. Why aren't you answering me? You always told me that you'd wait for me.. Did I just make you wait for too long? I'm sorry Bella. I love you, still, through it all. While I was away, you were all I had. The memories of you kept me going. Please try to answer.
Love, Blue
