(Chris's POV)

At night, when the stars light up my room, I sit by myself, talking to the moon. Trying to get to you. In hopes you're on the other side, talking to me too. Or am I a fool, who sits alone, talking to the moon? Do you ever hear me calling? Caus everynight, I'm talking to the moon. Still trying to get to you. In hopes you're on the other side talking to me too. Or am I a fool, who sits alone talking to the moon? I know you're somewhere out there, somewhere far away, I want you back...

I'm such a fucking screw up. I should have known eventually she'd find out. Found out I'd been talking fake crap about the woman who meant the world and more to her. And to me... I fell back into my pillow, thinking about the last conversation me and Mrs. Maria had. 

*Flashback*

"Mrs. Maria!" I smiled, hugging her. "Hi Chris! What's up?" She asked, sitting on her desk. I took my sandwich out from my bag, and took a bite of it. "I wanted to ask some questions about your niece." "Okay." She smiled. "Ask away." "Okay, first off, what's her personality?" I asked. "She's funny, and very talkative. She is very opnionated, and when she's thinking something, she'll let you know. But she is very sweet, and caring. She has a golden heart, and I mean that." She smiled. "Okay.. And two, why do you think we belond together so much?" I laughed. Mrs. Maria sat in the desk next to mine, and smiled. "You both have golden hearts, like I said. Neither of you can recognize just how amazing you are, so hopefully when you guys are together, you can help each other with that. But Chris?" "Yes?" I asked, curious. "I swear you both are meant to be together... Just promise me, you won't give up on her? If you really do like her, go after her. She doesn't believe anyone could love her, prove to her you can. Can you promise me that?" She asked. I nodded, and smiled. "I promise." "Thank you Chris." She smiled, and squezed my hand. The bell rang, signaling lunch was over. "Bye Mrs. M! I'll see you tonight!" I smiled. "You betcha! Get ready to partayyy!" She said, and danced. I laughed, and walked out of the room. Tonight is gonna be fun..

*Back to the present*

My eyes filled with tears at the memory. She honestly described Drea so perfectly. I smiled at the thought of it. ButI remembered what I had promised Mrs. Maria. I can't give up on Drea. She may hate me right now, but I agree with Mrs. Maria. We were meant for each other. And I will do everything in my power, to make sure that's how it goes...
