Forgotten Love (short story) [Needs Editing]

Smile at me

Lio

This is unbelievable I mean I do my best keeping it cool but I can't. That asshole has my vains ready to burst. I think what is irritating most is that Mimi doesn't remember the worst part. Does she really not remember or is she playing another lying game? This shit is crazy I'm usually worrying about sports but right now all I think about is Mimi. I can't grasp my emotions I seriously have no control and I don't even understand what it is exactly that I'm feeling.

It burns me that Mimi lied to me, I can't get over it because I honestly thought I was important to her. I don't think she understands how much I value her and our friendship.
The fact that she felt the need to lie to me feels like her stabbing my heart with pins and needles.

When I'm away from Mimi I want to see her beautiful face but when I'm in front of her I remember her lying straight to my face even though she could see the hurt in my eyes, my soul. I was desperately trying to get her to remember me. I sat alone and cried thinking about her and the thought of ever losing her made my heart ache. My eyes burned from lack of sleep and all I thought about is of how much I needed her. Does she not understand or can she not see me?

I've been MIA for about a week now since the Starbucks' incident. I really don't have the strength to see Mimi... I just don't... Atleast not right now...

We're half way through our senior year and barely created any pleasant memories. But since I'm actually caught up with all my credits to graduate I think I'll just take early grads. I'm an average student so regardless I need to go through a community college before setting into a four year college. Maybe I'll use this excuse to spend time away from Mimi and clear my mind.

Ughhhh... I going crazy I haven't seen Lio in forever! I miss his face I miss all of him... (Not that I've had him or anything of that sort) but I miss being close to him everyday, even if just as friends.

I've tried leaving early in the mornings to try and run into Lio but nope.. That has been a total fail. I even waited around after school a few times to see and no nothing as well. I know for a fact that I'm not imagining things he is definitely avoiding me. I can try to pretend and act as if it doesn't bother or affect me but, it's killing me I desperately want to see him even if at a distance.

Today at school I over heard someone say that Lio is taking early grads and leaving the high school in January... I sure hope they're mistaken.. He can't leave not now and not like this. Without me? Without telling me? What is really running through his mind? I am at a total loss for words. My best friend the man I love is going to leave me.

I'm walking home thinking about everything that can go wrong for me.. When I see William standing right in front of me.. Like seriously where the hell did he come from? He's standing there smiling acting as friendly as ever. I don't know why but I have a weird creepy feel about him.. I brush it off.

Mirani: Hey! William how are ya?!

William: I could be better beautiful but how are you?

Mirani: I... I... I'm okay.....

William: You don't seem okay gorgeous want to take a walk in the park before going home? At least get a peace of mind.

Mirani: (wanting to say no) Um... I guess... Let's go... Thank you William for worrying about me...

William: Anytime... You know how much I like you.. (he winks)

On our way to the park we run into Lio, yes Lio the guy I've been trying so hard to run into. He looks at me then at William and then right back at me. "Are you seriously hanging out with this dude? Really Mimi?" his tone is firm with anger. "I don't see you in almost a month and this is what you're worried about?" his nerve.

"Hey man she's a big girl let her make her own decisions," William says while rubbing my back. "You know what? Lets go, I don't even want to see him right," I'm so mad I could scream. He's worried about William but hasn't bothered to see me in so long, as if.

As I start walking away with William I feel Lio grab my arm pull me close to him. He then places his arm around my waist looks into my eyes and for the first time ever I see a different Lio.. A Lio that is not looking at me like a friend but as a man looking at a woman. I'm shaking my palms are sweating and my heart is racing.  Then there it was.. Yes finally he reaches forward and places his lips on mine.. It's like I feel electricity going through my entire body... His luscious lips are warm and soft and are touching mine... I don't want him to stop...

At the moment anything and everything is running through my mind. Then Lio pulls himself away and looks directly into my eyes, smiles and holds my hand tightly and then out of nowhere we start running. Yes running, we are running so fast and laughing, laughing hysterically as if playing a getaway game. I'm not saying anything I'm just embracing this moment and letting it take it's course.
