Everyone says that love hurts, but that's not true.
Loneliness hurts. Rejection hurts. Loosing someone hurts.
Everyone confuses these things with love, but in reality love is the only thing in this world that covers up all the pain and makes us...
"Geo.. is this a good idea?" I asked nervously after we finished.
Geo smiled and shook his head. "You're such a worrier!" He teased, "we'll be fine. Now go pack and meet me here."
I sighed, feeling a little upset when he bossed me around and didn't take me seriously. I don't think he realizes how serious this actually is. We're leaving our LIFE behind and starting a complete new one. What if we find that we don't love each other anymore? We'll split apart, someone will have to find a new house and we'll be all alone with nobody. I really don't want to do this, but I don't want to loose Geo too. I love him so much, and as I said earlier, love makes you crazy. Love makes you take risks, some which probably aren't worth it. But hey, you only live once..
I left his room, then his house after saying goodbye to his mum and arrived at Ariel's with eyes full of tears. I guess you could say that i'm a pretty emotional person.
"Hey.. what are you doing?" She questioned with a frown when I went into our room and grabbed my suitcase.
"Packing." Was my reply as I folded my pajamas.
She stared at me in silence for a while and then got out of her bed where she sat beside me. She looked completely confused.
"What's gotten into you?" She chuckled, "where are you off to? Are you going back home?"
"Yeah, where else would I be going?" I lied, avoiding eye contact. Just thinking about running away made me miss Ariel and Mario so much. We've had our ups and downs but they're like a family to me. I can't imagine my life without them. But then again, I can't imagine my life without Geo.
Twenty minutes of listening to Justin Bieber and singing as loud as we could to our favorite songs of his past and I was finally all packed and ready to go. I stared at Ariel, she stared at me, and then we burst into tears and a little bit of laughter.
"Keep in contact yeah?" I asked. That question was probably a bad idea, but as I said, I really couldn't live without her.
"Of course!" She gasped, as if she couldn't believe I just asked her that. "Do you really think I wouldn't have?" She gave me one last hug and then we took a selfie together, our mascara running and eyes bloodshot. It was hilarious and luckily she didn't post it, it would have been too cringe worthy.
I then left the house and made my way to say my last goodbyes to Mario.
~*~
"Hey?" He "greeted", sounding confused after I rang the doorbell and he opened the door.
"We need to talk." I sighed. Luckily, he couldn't see that I just cried because I cleaned up my face.
He let me enter his house and it took a lot to not cry when he put his arm around me while we sat down.
"Mario.. i'm leaving." I admitted. I left my suitcase outside Geo's so he couldn't already guess. He looked at me with wide eyes and a face full of worry.
"W-with your mum?"
"With my mum." I answered.
He didn't say anything. He just hugged me and cried. I managed to hold in my tears, I rubbed his back closed my eyes.
I hope Geo's happy that i'm leaving. Because he doesn't know what i'm sacrificing. He doesn't realize how much the people who i'm leaving behind mean to me. He doesn't realize anything, all he cares about is freedom.
