All Things Bright and Beautiful (Owl City fanfic)

Adam

I pushed Karma away and fled from the store, chasing after Cloe.

Oh no, oh no, oh no. The same words were flowing through my mind as I ran across the parking lot, forgetting my car, forgetting everything as I chased the only thing that mattered to me anymore.

10 painful minutes later I was at my front door.

My heart sank as I spied the open garage.

I pulled open the door. It was unlocked.

I rushed into the room, and wasn't surprised to find it deserted of all life.

"CLOE?" I called, knowing it was hopeless.

"Cloe?"

I sighed, flopping into a chair.

Without being able to stop it, I started to sob.

Why oh why, why did all my romances have to end like this? Me left crying as the only true person I loved raced away from me?

There was a shot in the dark, I was caught by surprise.

Why?

There was a hole in my heart, there were tears in your eyes.

Why oh why?

And there was nothing to say, cause' you made up your mind, and so I guess what you meant when

you left was goodbye.

I slammed my fist down on the table.

"No," I said out loud. Suddenly I felt a huge sense of determination.

I was not going to lose Cloe like I'd lost AnneMarie.
