Justice pov

Every drop, every gush of the wind, every sound and sight stopped if only for this mere moment. The question sent a chilling shiver up my spine. Everything the kiss, the date, this place, it was perfect. He made everything so perfect, he was perfect. My happily ever after was standing in front of me, right there for me to reach. How could I say no? Why would I say no? I frowned at a sudden thought, that couldn't be it could it? I looked down ashamed. "I'm sorry, but I can't. You deserve better, goodbye" I ran as fast as my legs could take me. Not giving him a second to respond. I just kept running and running until I reached home. What is wrong with me?
-----------------------------------------------------
I woke up early in the morning, I could see outside my window that the sun was going to come up soon. A pang of guilt and sadness washed over me, it reminded me of when we watched it together. I looked down, only to see my pajamas. Wait? I didn't change out of the dress....unless! I snuck into my mom's room and there it was as if it was never opened! "Phew" I let out a breathe I didn't realize I was holding. "It was just a dream" I told myself, smiling. It was just a dream....
-----------------------------------------------------
School went by fast, it was all fine and dandy until fifth period. I looked concernedly to Danielle, "Are you okay Danny?" I asked. Her eyes were puffy red as if she had been crying for days. Her bags underneath her eyes showed she hadn't slept in a while. She then told me what happened, "Ash got hit by a car....he's in the hospital, I-I don't know if he...if he w-will make it..." hot tears rolled down her cheeks as I hugged her tightly. "Shhh it's okay, it's okay" I comforted. She didn't see but my eyes were wide in shock. He was here in school a couple days ago and now he's in the hospital? Now he could die? Just like that? Sad thoughts flooded my mind, but I shook them off and focused on Danielle. Why is everything happening now?
-----------------------------------------------------
I sat in my bed pondering and questioning life. It sure was weird.... and sad. I stared at the ceiling demanding answers, it wasn't like it could talk. "Hello" I jumped from my bed and shrieked. THE CEILING WAS SPEAKING TO ME! "Huh? Sis?" Dev stared at me confused. "Oh it's just you. Phew!" I sighed. I'm going crazy. "What's wrong Justice you seem off" he chirped. "Ughhh I made a really stupid decision and I don't know why" I frowned. Dev came over and sat next to me "Well you know, you obviously did it for a reason. Maybe you just need to look for it. Stop second guessing yourself." He said wisefully. "You're bro!" I ruffled his hair. "You're getting smarter by the second!" I commented. "Oh yay! That physiology book must have helped!" I stared at him shocked that why it was so smart.... I then looked up at the ceiling, I already knew why I said no. I just didn't want to accept it. He's perfect in every way, he's my idea of a happily ever after. And that's my problem, I could never truly love him....if I was in love of the idea of him.
