{ and it's been a while, but I still feel the same, maybe I should let you go }

TUESDAY MORNING
[ ALLISON'S POV ]

The orange sun slowly peaked though the blinds in the media room; waking me up.

My eyes fluttered open only a couple of times seeing that the house was still dark except from the sunlight.

Grayson had his arms wrapped around Taylor while she was pushed into his chest.

Jeff laid on the side of his hip in the sofa chair.

My hand reached for my phone that was sitting on the table stand. I clicked the home button seeing it was 7:04am.

I could feel my stomach growling in hunger from not eating any dinner last night.

Quietly, I slid out of the blanket and got up from the couch. My feet stayed silent as I walked out of the media room.

I shut the door and walked downstairs where there was even more sunlight due to the amount of windows there were.

I walked to the kitchen and grabbed the box of Reece's Puffs from the pantry and poured myself a bowl.

After I poured the milk in, walked out of the front door, sitting on the patio waiting for the sun to come up.

Slowly the orange grew brighter and brighter making my heart ache, literally.

This is the first time I've even seen a sunrise for a year and a half.

The feeling inside my body was so uneasy. I swear I feel dizzy.

I let out a sigh while digging my spoon into the bowl of cereal.

The sun finally was fully up, I swear it looked different than usual. Maybe it's just because I haven't seen one in forever but this could be the most beautiful sight I've ever seen.

My vision became blurry while my head lowered. I placed the bowl onto the side table then putting my face into my hands.

This feeling of darkness was consuming me inside and out. I felt like a tiny needle was slowly being dragged against my heart; it was a sharp pain.

I was fine without him for over a year, why am I hurting now?

Actually, I know exactly why.

Seeing him in person after all this time and seeing how he went back to his old ways is heart breaking because I've seen what kind of person he's capable of being. But he threw that away.

I miss him.

I miss the touch of his skin on mine.

I miss the taste of his lips, they were always a tad bit minty.

I miss the spark feeling of looking into his eyes when they were filled with pure happiness.

I miss the heat in my stomach from butterflies.

I miss him loving me.

My hands wiped underneath my eyes trying to pull myself together but seeing the sky wasn't helping the situation.

My cheeks filled with air, I let a out a huff trying to relieve stress.

I picked up my bowl and continued to eat the rest of the cereal for only five more minutes until Ethans car pulled up in the driveway.

My heart rate increased intensely as I watched him get out of his car.

His face was in a blank stare looking down to his feet while he shut the door and started walking to the patio.
