Luke's POV
All those dreams.
All that hope.
I really believed.
I really did.
But then- BAM.
I couldn't do it.
I can't do it.
I nearly died trying.
Annie explained why I couldn't do it, and while it makes sense, I just wish that I'd known before I let my hopes get that high.
But I didn't know.
Ever since she's broken the news, Annie's been keeping out of my way, knowing that I wasn't in the best of moods.
Some people might say I'm over reacting.
But I'm not, at least I don't think I am. I wanted it, wanted something solid to hold onto. Ever since I found out I'm adopted, I haven't felt whole, I haven't felt real.
The only thing that felt solid was my relationship with Annie, but now even that is wobbly. Not because we've fallen out, nothing like that, but because I don't know how she feels about me.
But I know how I feel about her.
