Last Summer

Anna

It's hard to believe that I've been with a guy for three years; looking back on it was funny remembering that my long term boyfriend Peter Adams was so nervous asking me out but it made me giggle watching him be a nervous wreck. Everyone thought I was going to say no but I ended up saying yes which was the start to our three year relationship. I heard a knock on my door and I turned around seeing my young brother Luke smiling at me.

"Are you ready to go? Peter is downstairs with a bunch of roses" Luke said rolling his eyes

"Thanks for ruing the surprise Luke" I said grabbing my jumper and bag.

"Oh please it's Peter every date you have, he brings your flowers" he said; I walked past him then turned around and said.

"But it's cute every time he does it; you'll understand when you get a girlfriend Luke" I said laughing. I walked downstairs seeing Peter talking to my father and of course Luke was right; Peter had flowers in his hand. Peter turned around watching me walk down the stairs smiling at him.

"Hi" I said walking over towards them.

"You look beautiful as ever and as always I got you flowers" he said smiling handing me the flowers.

"They are beautiful as always" I said giving him a kiss

"Alright you kids better get out of here before I sit Peter down to have a talk with him" dad said

"We were just leaving; bye dad" I said giving him a kiss on the cheek.

"Bye Mr. Hemmings" Peter said opening the door for me. He waved to the both of us and Peter shut the door behind him soon intertwining our hands together.

"By the way happy anniversary" he said while we walked towards his car.

"I can't believe it's been three years since you've asked me to be your girlfriend" I said thinking back to that moment just before Christmas.



I walked up the steps while Peter had my eyes covered and the only thing I was worried about was me tripping and hitting my head. I heard a door open and feeling the wind and how cold it was.

"Peter where are we? It's gotten very cold" I said laughing

"Hang on just need to go around the corner" he said mumbling to himself. We walked for another thirty seconds and soon Peter removed his hands from my eyes and I found myself standing on top of a roof with the best view of Sydney. Peter put a picnic together and it was a great way to spend our three year anniversary together.

"Peter; this is beautiful" I told him turning around facing him.

"I wanted this night to be unforgettable and special to us" he told me.

"Well you did a great job" I said leaning in giving him a kiss. I was excited for this year; our senior year, the final year of high school and what better way was too hang out with all my friends and my boyfriend.


Peter and I were lying down looking at the stars seeing if any shooting stars came past but there were none.

"Anna" Peter said quietly

"Yes" I said sitting up looking at him.

"Can we make a promise to each other"? He asked

"Of course" I said; Peter sat up looking at me and took a deep breath.

"I know high school couples don't really last long and I really hope we last long; I know by the end of the year when we leave high school I'll be going to university in America and you'll be going to Paris to get into that pastry school; but I want us to make a promise right now that we will always stick together and if we ever get the chance we will come visit each other but right now we will make the most of our senior year, deal"? He asked

"Deal; I will always be with you" I said smiling soon leaning in for a kiss.



Peter and I were on our way back home ending the night in singing many songs that came onto the radio and it was a great moment. Soon Green Day came on the radio and I looked at Peter smirking and he knew I loved Green Day so he turned it up for me. I was banging my head to it laughing along with Peter.

"ON HOILDAY"! we both sang driving through a green light; I looked at Peter noticing a bright light coming towards us "PETER"! I screamed; Peter looked at the window then looked back me seeing terror in his eyes. From there I felt a crash into the car and that's when everything started to become a blur and soon darkness took over me.



I started to hear beeping coming beside me; I slowly started opening my eyes starting to see a white wall knowing this wasn't my room or Peter's room. I sat up seeing I was in a hospital room and beside me was Luke holding my hand with his head down fast asleep.

"Luke" I said softly but it seemed enough to wake him up; he had puffy eyes knowing straight away he had been crying but he seemed happy seeing me.

"Anna, you're okay" he said getting up to hug me leaving me confused "I thought I lost you" he said, he pulled away from the hug seeing that I was still confused.

"Luke, what happened"? I asked; Luke bit his lip seeing that he didn't want to mention anything "Luke, what happened? Where's Peter"? I asked soon tearing up.

"I'm sorry Anna, they tried to save him but it was no use, if they saved him then he would have been in pain he's whole life from the surgery" Luke said "I'm so sorry Anna" he said giving me a hug; that's when I let it all out knowing the boy I loved was gone and no longer in my life. Peter Adams was dead and there's nothing I could do about it.


Summer went by quickly and that meant school was starting for one last year for me; I didn't know how I was going to handle everything. I couldn't bare going to Peter's funeral but Peter's mum understood. I've locked myself in my room not speaking to my mother or father or even Luke; my two older brothers Ben and Jack have tried to contact me but I haven't spoken to anyone since the accident not even my friends.

I decided tonight I would go down to he's grave just before school started in about three days; I grabbed flowers he brought me on our three year anniversary, I grabbed my jumper putting my hoodie on. I opened the windows and jumped down from there leaving the house from the back yard.

I arrived at the grave seeing all the flowers still there from Peter's funeral and I started tearing up; I sat down in front of he's grave and placed the flowers in front of me.

"I can't believe this is actually happening; this is probably the last time I'll come to your grave because it's too much for me and I hope you can understand. I just hope I can get through this senior year without you by my side, I will love you forever Peter Adams don't you forget that and just like we said; forever and always" I said smiling but soon broke into tears. Peter was always there for me throughout school and now he wasn't and I didn't know who I would have this year probably just myself.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and I looked up seeing Luke smiling down at me; even though I haven't been speaking to him he's been there for me and right now I needed him. I stood up being pulled into a hug with my brother and I started crying into his shirt.

"Its okay sis, let it all out; I'll be here for you every step of the way, now let's get you home" he said; he put an arm around me and before I left the grave yard; I turned around snuffling and said.

"Goodbye Peter; I love you"
