Tick... tick... tick... as the time went on so did my thoughts, I have something in common with time. you may disagree with me but for a fact I know me and time are both are running out of time.

Class ends in about 20 minutes but I can't wait. Today is Valentine's Day, the day of love and romance, on this day this very special day where 3 years ago he asked me to be his one and only
I start to pack up like all the other students in the class room. While the teacher kept blabbering about what he and his wife were going to do for Valentine's Day almost all the students were getting ready to ask their loved ones to the Valentine's Day dance tonight.

Me? I'm going with my boyfriend but of course I wanted it to be special because it was our anniversary and Valentine's Day.. I start day dreaming about the dance with him then all of a sudden
RING!

That was the bell, everyone got their backpacks, flowers, teddy bears, etc. and ran out the door I walked to my locker seeing couples asking each other out and performing signs of affection to each other. Once I got to my locker mostly everyone left to get ready for the dance. It was like a " early prom " or something. It took me about 5 seconds to open my locker and get the 12 roses for my boyfriend I was walking through the almost empty halls. As I was approaching our meet up spot after school (it was the water fountain near the back of the school) I heard his loud gentle voice. My smile soon turned to a frown as I turned the corner.

Their do my eyes behold me he was next to the water fountain with another girl I quickly hide behind the wall to hear their conversation. As he was hugging a strawberry brown haired girl her arms were around his stomach and her face was buried in his chest ( my " boyfriend" is 6'5 ) his head was placed on top of hers and his arms around her neck my eyes widen as I heard him spoke " I love you and only you and no one else " tears started forming in my eyes. My emotions were in control of my brain now as I was slowly walking in to the open to witnesses my first heart break. The strawberry haired girl parted her head from his chest and that was when my emotions were in control of my brain now as I was slowly walking in to the open to witnesses my first heart break. The strawberry haired girl parted her head from his chest and that was when sky blue eyes meet emerald eyes. She then spoke " what about your girlfriend? " my 'boyfriend' rolled his eyes " her? I never loved her only you " they both smiled at each other. I could see the sparkle of love in both of their eyes I could tell right their and then they loved each other and I was their watching. Having my heart broken, my heart didn't break in two nor did it break into a million pieces but It was to broken it turned into dust and was carried away by my own tears. Little did I know my tears were gushing out of my eyes like water falls creating a puddle of my own tears were I stood. I knew if I stayed in that spot longer my puddle of tears will soon turn into a ocean of my own tears.

I sprinted out the door past the happy couple without knowing I dropped the 12 roses by his feet while running. I keep running and running not know where I was going. But I was running for a reason, I was trying to run from everything. I snapped out of my thoughts when I was suddenly in a forest I then stopped and thought to myself ' why am I running? I already ran out time... '
