5 years later
September 16, 2021
"five years." i mumbled to myself, staring at a picture of me and Grayson. i had never gotten over him. he moved to LA about ten months after we started dating.
we tried long distance. and we did for about a year. we wrote each other. we texted. called. facetimed. snapped.
we tried everything we could. until one day, we both realized how much pressure this put on us.
girls would come up to him.
guys would come up to me.
we would have to say no.
no matter how much we wanted to say yes.
not only Grayson being gone, but Ethan, too. both of them out of lives, is worse than i could've ever imagined.
i graduates college about a month ago and still sobbed over the fact of how i might have been the reason he couldn't do this anymore. it hurt to say his name. it hurt to think it.
i sighed as i plopped down on my bed and stared at the picture of us under the peer. "five years..." i mumbled again.
it was September 16.
five years ago was when we confessed our love for each other.
five years ago was when we had our first true kiss. the first time we ever really meant anything we said to anyone. or anything.
five years ago we were sitting under a peer, sixteen year old teenagers in love, staring at the moon.
it was the first night of the full moon.
FLASHBACK
September 16, 2016
my head rested on his shoulder and his head was on top of mine. our hands were clasped together and i could hear his faint breaths.
we stared up at the moon.
"first night of the full moon." i said.
Grayson looked at me and smiled. "can you promise me something?" he asked, his smile all of a sudden, fading.
i nodded.
"of coarse. anything."
"promise me..." he hesitated and looked away from me. he stared up at the moon again. "that whenever you see a full moon...you'll think of me. and you'll think of all we've been through. even thought we just started dating today, the future will bring us more than we can even imagine. just... look up at the moon and think of me, okay?"
tears started clouding up my eyes and i nodded.
"i promise."
FLASHBACK OVER
i sighed as i remembered that night.
i lived on the same farm i did when i moved here. he would know where to find me.
the pain of the last moment together killed me.
FLASHBACK
June 30, 2016
i stood beside him at the airport. "flight 37 to Los Angeles, California." the lady over the speaker announced.
i looked at Grayson one more time. "i love you." i cried.
he started to tear up. "i love you too. more then you'll ever know."
he kissed me one last time and started to walk away.
"wait!" i grabbed him by the wrist and turned him around.
"tell me the truth." i said, barely above a whisper.
he kissed me one last time on the forehead. "you're forever mine." and with that, he was gone.
FLASHBACK OVER
tonight there was suppose to be a full moon. and i knew exactly what i was going to think of.
Grayson. the first night we said i love you. the first night we held hands. kissed. made love. i hadn't moved on and i bet he has. probably off in LA with all the rich girls. probably married. may even have a couple kids. i didn't know for sure.
the only thing i was certain of...was that i would never see him again.
