I noticed on social media that Eli started posting photos with Elizabeth just like he did with me but one photo stood out the most. It was a photo of them two on some mini cruise as their first date and it was them two kissing, he commented on the bottom ‘Our first romantic date. I’m finally in love with someone again and this beautiful girl @Elizabeth is the one that I shall keep forever. (ILYFAA)’ I realised what ILYFAA stand for it was ‘I love you forever and always’ it was the thing he would always say to me after a very hard day of school or after fixing up our mini fights.
Just as I finished reading it Imogen posted a comment on his photo saying “You’re a dirty, freak who has no life because you know that your heart is for Becky and I know that her heart is for you as well! So you both should just fricken kiss already!” Eli then deleted Imogen’s comment so fast, he didn’t think twice about what it really meant.
I straight away called Imogen and yelled at her but she said the same thing to me and told me it’s the truth and apologized and hung up on me. At school Elizabeth approached me at my locker. She slammed my door shut and gave me an evil stare and said “I know you and Eli had the perfect romance, but it’s over and he is with me. So go away.!”
I replied with “my heart, my mind and my soul hates him and doesn’t love him either.”
She smiles and answered “I’m glad you think the same but make sure to tell your friend Imogen that as well.” And she skipped off to Eli waiting for her down the end of the hallway.
I re-opened my locker again and started to cry again but this time everyone could see it and Imogen and Adam came up to me and tried to calm me down but I fell to the floor in tears and so they hugged me and wiped away my tears on the floor and they both whispered to me “This break up was going to be hard…”
The next few school days I stayed home and I started telling myself to move on and to forget about Eli and me being together. I returned to school noticing Eli and Elizabeth making out at every moment they had together. Instead of me running away and crying I smiled and walked past them because I trained myself to not run and hide I had to be noticed and strong.
English class started to become better but Eli only talked to me about school related stuff and nothing else he never even said a hello to me. My life started to move on but I still had one small space inside of me that still loves Eli but I felt like I had locked away in a room hoping it will die but as it came to the end of another school term it seemed to of lived and stay inside of me.
