KATIE'S POV:

This first year that Callum was away was, well, It was, empty. I mean, i know it's just one person that has gone but, that one person has made a huge impact on my life and they've just been taken away from me.

At the beginnig of the first year, me and Callum spoke everyday. Either on the phone, video chat, anything that could let us communicate. But, as the months and years went on, the time that we talked got smaller and smaller. First it was everyday, then twice a week, then maybe three times a month! I hate being this far away from him. He's so busy with college that he can't talk to me as much as i want him too. I just feel that we have drifted apart to much.

I feel as if he is living his dream and he has left me behind. Has he really forgotten me?

It's August, and Callum is into his final month of his final year of college. Next month, Trudi and Steve are having a special memorial for Grandpa John and they have asked me and my parents to go, as we were really close to him. It's only family, so i definitely think that Callum will be there. He would have forgotten me by now. I still think about him. I know i should forget him too but, i just can't let him go.

I'm in my final year of college too. I'm studying English and Art. I still don't know what i want to do as a job! I can't make my mind up, with my career or with Callum.

I was in the mall the other day, picking out something to wear to the memorial. I found this really nice black dress that came just down to the tops of my knees. It was really pretty, so i bought it. And if Callum doesn't remember me then, at least i will look good! It was so upsetting when Grandpa John died. I remember having to hold Callum and rock him like a baby, to stop him crying. That year was one of the best and worst years of my life.

Me and Callum have'nt spoken for two years! He must be really busy not to talk to me! I still wonder if he thinks about me. If he still loves me the way i love him. It would kill me if he has forgotten about me. Anyway, like he said, some bad things don't work out, maybe this is one of them.

ONE MONTH LATER;THE DAY BEFORE THE MEMORIAL:

I was ironing my new dress, ready for the memorial tomorrow. There was a knock at the door. I switched the iron off and hung my dress up in the laundry room.

I opened the door to see a smiling Trudi,

"Hey hunni, you all okay?" She asked me as she guided us to the swinging chair that was on the porch. There was a warm breeze that swirled around my hair.

"Yeah, i'm fine. You?" I replied.

"I'm great. Just a bit tired from sorting all of this memorial stuff out. Grandpa John would be laughing his head off looking at me, rushing around to do something for him!" She chuckled.

I just laughed and nodded my head.

"I just came over to see you about something," she said. Oh, no. She's gonna say something aout Callum!

" I was gonna ask your mom, but then i realised that her car wasn't in the driveway. Could you come and help me clean Callum's room before he comes back tomorrow, cause' it's a bit of a mess from where he was rushing about the last time he came home!?" She said, nearly all without taking a single breath!

"Errm.." I said hesitantly.

"I would really appreciate it because it's too hard for me to do on my own!" She said.

"Fine, i will help you," i said, finally giving in. I didn't want to because it would bring back too many memories. And, what did she mean about the last time he came home? He has only been home twice and that was in his first year at college! I guess he must have come home in summer break?! But, why wouldn't he come and see me? I am so confused right now!

I went inside to grab some shoes and then followed Trudi into her house and up the stairs to Callum's room, making a trip to the laundry room to get some cleaning supplies.

I walked into Callum's room and helped Trudi clean. I tried to do it as quickly as possible, as i was already fighting back the tears.

When we had cleaned up the mess, Trudi said that i should go home and have a nice long bath and that she would see me and my parents tomorrow. So, i did what she said, then i fell asleep.

THE MEMORIAL DAY; KATIE'S POV:

I straightened out my dress and held onto my dads arm as we walked down the aisle and into our seats. The service was lovely. There was millions of flowers, all bright colours and shapes and sizes. I think that Grandpa John would have loved this.

I didn't see Callum in the church. Maybe he wasn't coming? But, he has finished college by now and he woudn't blow this off!? Not if its anything to do with his Grandpa.

After the service, everyone went outside to see the memorial stone. It was to mark the fifth anniversary of Grandpa John's death and it was to show our respect.

We were all gathered around the statue. The vicar said a couple of prayers and then everyone went to the hall by the church to have drinks.

I stayed to have a look at the statue. My mom and dad went to get drinks and talk to Trudi and Steve.

I still haven't seen Callum, i guess he couldn't make it.

Suddenly, i heard someone cough behind me,

"Dad, i said i didn't want a drink," i said while spinning around.

It wasn't my dad. A smiling Callum wearing a shirt and tie was standing there.

"Hello stranger," he said, still smiling that breath-taking smile.

I cocked my head to the side and smiled back.

"You still remember me then?" I said, still smiling and moving closer to Callum. He reacted the same way and moved closer to me.

When we were inches apart, he said,

"How could i forget such a beautiful girl like you?" he said.

"But you never came to visit me? I thought that you had forgotten about me and that you didn't love me anymore," i said, tears trickling down my face.

"Katie, i have always loved you, and i will never stop loving you!" Callum said, wiping the tears from my face.

I smiled. He never forgot me. I felt a drop of water land on my cheek.

"Stop crying!" Callum said, still with a smile on his face and wiping the water away.

"I'm not!" i replied, laughing. It was raining.

Then, Callum closed the distance between us with a kiss.

There we were. Soaking wet and in love! Yes my hair was sticking to my face and my mascara was running! But, i didn't care! I had the most compassionate, caring, handsome, most lovely bestfrind in the world! The bonus is, he's MY boyfriend and i will never let go of him!

It just shows that, whatever you think, it can all change and that the bad things in your life make you who you are. Life is a mystery and you never know when something is just going to disappear. But, you also never know when it is going to come back. Some things don't, but some do. Mine did...
