CHAPTER 25
"IT'S TIME TO MOVE ON."*Sylvia*
I arrived at his house in 15 minutes flat and when I got there I didn't get out the car. What if he didn't want to see me? No Sylvia you cat back down now. I took a glace in my rearview mirror and long story short I looked like crap. Half my hair was down in a tangly knot and the rest was still in the bun I previously made this morning. I gathered up my hair an put it into a messy knotty pony tale. It'll be great fun brushing it out tonight.
I opened my car door, took a deep breath, then stepped out. It took me about five to ten minutes to reach the front door because kept going back to my car then back to the door. And to piece it together I'm to scared to ring the doorbell. I'm scared now. I'm actually here and he's just behind this door. I bring my finger to the doorbell and run it. This was a bad idea I should just went home. Someone opened the door and a beautiful young woman opened the door and she looked so much like Sarah. This is the time Sylvia.
"Can I speak to Dylan please?"
She looked confused then she opened the door wider, motioning me to come in. I slowly walk in then a smile comes to my face as Sarah comes bounding down the stairs straight into me for a hug. "Sylvia!"
"Hi Sarah." I bend down and hug her then what I assume to be Mrs. Beet speaks to Sarah. "Sarah honey go upstairs, okay. I have to speak to Sylvia." She nods then tramples up the stairs leaving me with her and Dylan's mother. She starts to walk to the living room exactly were Dylan and I's date was. I sit on the couch beside her and she starts speaking.
"I thought Dylan had told everybody, especially you." What?
"Wait what?" She grabbed my hand from the armrest of the couch and placed it in her hand.
"Dylan's finishing up his senior year with his father in California, he left about a week and a half ago."
I stood up and made my way to the door. "Um.. Sorry Mrs. Beet I have to go, it was nice meeting you..." She answered, "Candice." I nodded my head, then left. Ad when I did I finally let the tear fall.
I made him leave, for good. He's gone. He won't know how sorry I am or how much I love him. My eyesite is blurry name I realise I won't he able to drive home because it seems like the tears aren't stopping anytime soon. So I walk to the place the I know will help me fell better.
***
I open the gate an it creeks open. The walk here wasn't bad except the multiple times I've tripped due to me not being able to see. I made it here in about an hour and half of waking. It was good thinking time. It was probably bad that I left my car at his house but, oh well.
I cautiously made my way over to her avoiding the flowers and other people's grave. I slowly sat down and read the words that layed upon her tombstone.

You will be missed"Hi mom."
I started to feel my eyes water and I knew what came next. "Um. So I met this boy and he was so sweet to me but I messed it up with him." I felt the first teat fall and I wiped it away and continued talking to her.
"He was so so nice to me and he said he loved me b-ut I screwed it up mom, I screwed it up. I had to leave before I start sobbing again. I stand up and touch the top her grave stone.
"I miss you mom so, so, much."
I got I walk away but I numb into a familiar chest and right when he put his arms around me I started to cry. My father held me as I cried into his chest. When would the tears stop? After about ten minutes after I'm mostly dried up and he tells me.
"Pumkin whatever is going on right now will be okay, I promise you."
The he sit down beside her and I do the same by sitting beside him. One big broken family.
Maybe he was right. Maybe this will be okay soon. I know made Dylan move away, I made his heart break after fixing the mistake that I did only to make another one. But maybe in time it'll all be okay. I'll never have my chance to say sorry to him right now but maybe sometime later I will. It was a mistake. It was a mistake being Casey's friend, it was a mistake going to that dumb party and playing spin the bottle, it was a mistake accepting the dare from Casey, and it was a mistake breaking Dylan's heart. But it's time to move on, it's not the end dog the world right now. It'll all be okay one day, just maybe today's not the day.
