After College (Vixie & Chris Powell)

/3/ Regrets

                    After 3 years

Chris' P. O. V.

I took a bus to Northbridge..... Damn, I had many memories here....my friends, my teachers, people on the student council, the football team, the suite...... Vixie. I suddenly felt guilty, knowing that I just left my friends and my girlfriend without them knowing. I could imagine Vixie being really worried.......or worse, she might have been crying.

I left because.....dad wanted me to see him. He told me to give him another chance. When he left me, my mom,and my siblings... He lived abroad for 9 years.... Dad wanted me to come with him to see what his life was like. I must admit, I couldn't sleep because of this......how do I explain this to Vixie? Will she tell me to join dad? Or tell me to stay? Of course, she wants you to stay but she would say it's my decision,so whatever I will choose is fine.  I didn't know what to do so I just.....left. I hate myself.

I walked around.... After a while I saw a familiar face and it saw me too.

"Chris?" the familiar face asked me

"Woah.......  Zack?" I asked, smiling wide with a hint of guilt in my eyes.

"The one and only,bro" Zack replied, giving me a hug.

Two words suddenly came out of my mouth..

"I'm sorry... " I said, hugging him tight

"It's okay,Chris. You're here now and that's all that matters.." Zack replied as he pulled away.

"Anyway, I missed you! C'mon, let's go to my place. We have so much to talk about! " Zack added

"Definitely," I replied

At Zack's place......

"So what happened while I was gone?" I asked, nervously

"Uh, you mean, 'what happened in those three years while you were gone'? " Zack asked

"Uh.... When you put it that way, yes. " I replied,scratching the back of my neck

"Well...... Don't freak out. Because of you, Sebastian became President of the student council..." Zack said, nervously.

"What!?  What about Arjun?" I asked, shocked

"Arjun quitted the council before Sebastian became President..we asked him why but he didn't answer, " Zack told me.

"As for the others.... " Zack looked down before answering..

"Kaitlyn and her band got an offer to go on tour so they accepted...so now Kaitlyn's abroad.. Tyler and Abbie, they broke up. Abbie caught Tyler and another girl together so yeah, Abbie broke up with Tyler. I don't know where Abbie is now but I know that Tyler moved here in Northbridge but I don't know where. As for Zig, he was kicked out of school cause Sebastian removed the Second Chance Scholarship proposal of yours..... We tried to help Zig,but he just...gave up. James' is abroad too, he wrote many novels... " Zack added

"And Vixie?" I asked, very curious and very guilty.

"She had a depression,  she couldn't even sleep.... But she graduated,though. We lost connection after our graduation day... But I know she lives around Northbridge..." Zack replied

I was very angry at myself when Zack said Vixie was depressed....she couldn't sleep.... I could imagine her crying so hard.... I broke her. I just broke the one girl I really freakin' loved. I wanted to see her but I'm afraid of how she'll react when she sees me. Will she be happy?  Will she be angry?  Does she still love me?  Does she even still remember me?  Has she moved on? Many questions flooded in my mind. But I knew what I needed to do.

I need to get her back.
