"you run away
from you're shadow
There's more than you can see
you say
floating away from the crowd
to try
to never be seen again
what are you hiding from,love
what is that scares you?
is it the world behind y...
If you love someone,set them free. If the come back they're yours; If they don't they never were. -Richard Bach.
Jay's pov
Flashback
I walked up the steps of the school bus.It was the first day of middle school meaning new friends.I hope I meet nice people.
I saw a girl with two pigtails sitting alone doing something on her notebook.I went up to her and stood there until she acknowledged me.
She raised her head to see me and smiled.Her hazel eyes were twinkling.
"Hi c-can I sit here?"I stuttered.She giggled and nodded in response.
I sat down next to her and gave her my introduction"Hi I'm Jay"
"like the alphabet J?"she asked while giggling,she giggles too much But it's cute.I bobbed my head.
"Can I call you hazel?"I asked.

"Yeah but my name is-"I cut her off.
"Don't tell me I won't remember"I told her.
"what why?"she asked in confusion.
"I'm bad with remembering names"I replied.
"oh well then you can call me anything you want.But why hazel?"she asked in curiosity.
"Because your eyes are Hazel."I grinned.A wide smile also spread upon her lips.
"Hey get up this is my seat"I turned around to see a girl my age with blond hair.
"Dove this is my friend alphabet J,alphabet J meet my best friend Dove"Hazel introduced me to her friend Dove.
"Can I call you birdie?"I asked the blond haired girl.
"What no my name is Dove,now please get up from my seat."she whined.I shook my head not getting up,I made a new friend I'm not going to leave her.
"Dove,please let alphabet J sit with me today"hazel pleaded.
"Fine!"Birdie stomped her feet and walked away.
End of flashback
"Birdie!"I shouted.
"So you finally remember me,huh?"she smirked.I got up from my seat and hugged her.
"you're so grown up"she laughed.
"you too alphabet J you too"I backed away from her.
If she's birdie and her best friend was Hazel then this means Hazel is Rose! My hazel is my Rose.What happened to her?
"Jay you're one of the reasons she changed"She stated as a matter of fact.She changed because of me,why?
"Jay you took her first kiss from her,and became Her first boyfriend and then the next day you left without another word.She never heard from you again and well here you are now but you have no idea how she felt."
"But I left because of my dad's job"I gave her the reason for my disappearance.
"Jay that's alright and all but she was devastated that you left without saying even goodbye to her.She really really liked you and when you left she felt unwanted and unloved and that was the first time ever I saw her insecure about herself,she cried to herself each night,I pretended that I didn't notice her swollen eyes but I did."my heart ached,did I really caused her that much pain,I hate myself now.
"You know you're the only guy she has ever kissed up till now"I was overjoyed by the fact that I'm the only one who has ever even gotten close to her,well if I'm the only one then what about the others Dove keeps talking about.
"Does she remember who I am?"I asked.
"No I suppose not."I should be relieved but I'm sad that she doesn't remember me.
"How do you still remember me?"I asked in confusion.If Hazel-I mean Rose doesn't remember me than how come she does?I didn't spend that much time with her.
