Darling, I know your heart's seen better times
I know our songs had better rhymes
Before today
Darling, I guess I made the wrong mistakes
I understand if you need your space
Please take your time.
I watched my best friend walk out of the front door, and down the street, to her house. I frowned, knowing I've probably blown my chance of ever asking her to a movie. She's just ended a bad relationship a week ago and is still torn up about it.
Of course, with me being the jealous type, I just made it worse. Our fight replayed in my head, and I mentally smacked myself at the things that I wish I didn't say to her.
"You still torn up about Mace?" I asked as Melissa sat on my couch, starring blankly at the Tv screen. She nodded her head slowly. "You shouldn't be."
"Why?" she asked, looking at me.
"Cause." I replied. "Your better off without him."
"I don't think I am." she said, sighing sadly. "He was everything to me."
"Well, he's gone." I said blankly. Melissa shot me a glare, and it wasn't those playfully mean glares. I frowned.
"Sorry." I mumbled. She shook her head, and sighed, looking back over at the Tv screen. "He doesn't deserve your love though."
Melissa smirked. "I know." she said. "but he has it, and I don't think I'll ever get it back."
"Maybe if you try?" I asked, in an attempt to make her laugh, maybe even giggle alittle. Didn't work. It actually kind of pissed her off, which completely confuses me.
"Well, if I try, it means getting close to him, and.." she paused, taking in a deep breath. "I can't even look at him right now."
"Why are girls like that?" I asked curiously. She gave me a confused look. "Like what?" she asked. "Like that. 'I can't even look at his face, or hear his name without my heart breaking into a million peices.' " I said, using the best girly voice I could.
"Look." Melissa pressed. "I don't sound like that. Maybe if you had a heart, and loved someone as much as I loved Mace, then you'd understand how I feel!" She got up from her seat, and left the house, slamming the front door angrily.
The thing is..I do love someone as much as Melissa loved Mace.
It was Melissa.
The thing is, I've just screwed it up. 'Give her some space, justin.' I thought, and sighed.
And that's what I did.
Before you go away, so far away you need to realize
Baby, it's not just you
You know it hurts me too
Watching you leave
With tears on your sleeve
Notice that mine aren't exactly dry
Baby, it's not just you
That's hurting
It's me too
"Can we talk?" I said into the phone reciever. Melissa sighed on the other line. It's obvious she's still pissed at me, even though we haven't talked in two days.
"I don't know." she replied. "I don't feel like talking right now."
"To me that is." I muttered.
"No." Melissa said. "I just don't feel like talking. Look, I've got to go. Bye Justin." she hung up, and my heart fell.
Yup. My friendship, and probably my feelings for Melissa are screwed over. I've officially just ruiend my life. I hung up the house phone on it's hook, and walked into my room. I shut the door, and walked to my bed. Sitting on it, I thought in my mind all the things I wanted to say to Melissa.
