Say Something by A Great Big World ft. Christina Aguilera

I think this song goes well with the beginning.

I watched as she walked away from me. She didn't even look back. My stomach empty and my heart broken. I don't know why they call it heartbreak. It feels like every other part of my body is broken too.

How could I say that to her? There are so many thoughts running through my head. What am I going to do now? What's going to happen?

My whole body hurt. I stayed in the middle of the parking lot in pain. I just stood there. Seconds turned into minutes which turned to hours. I stood in that exact place for five hours contemplating my next move.

My phone never stopped ringing as those hours passed by. I pulled out my phone from my back pocket.

76 unread messages
84 missed calls
62 voicemails

None from the person who meant the most. I tucked my phone back into my pocket. It was finally time to unfreeze my position and go home. I walked on the sidewalk in silence and complete darkness. The only thing I did was think. I was so lost in my thoughts I hadn't realized that I was home.

"Sammy, I'm home!" I yelled as I made my way to the kitchen. I shrugged off the sound of nothing and took a water bottle out of the fridge.

Feeling exhaustion, I went upstairs. Each step harder than the last.

"Sammy, I said I'm home." I yelled once again. Ignoring the urge to look for her, I went to my room. The minute my head hit the pillow I was fast asleep.

"Wake the fuck up."

ignore

"I said wake the fuck up!"

ignore

"WAKE UP YOU ASSHOLE!" I lazily opened my eyes. I rubbed my eyes for a clearer vision while taking a quick glance at the clock : 3:57 am.

"There has to be a damn good reason on why the fuck I am being waken up at 4 am." I told Sammy.

"Oh there is a better reason than damn good on you why I am waking your ass up. Do you know what I have been doing for the whole evening? I've been looking for you. I called you an hour later after school ended. No answer. Two Hours after school ended. No answer. More hours passed, and still no answer. So my next option was to look for you. I looked for you everywhere. As I was looking, I continued to call. And guess what? No fucking answer. Why couldn't you have called me? Don't you know that you are my responsibility, I look after you. You tell me where you are at all times." Sammy spoke, each word filled with pure seriousness.

"Sammy, I am not in mood to argue." I spoke.

"You aren't in the mood. You better keep your fucking mouth shut 'cause I'm not joking. Don't fuck with me okay. You know what Gerad and Meredith said. Don't give me any bullshit." Sammy screamed. I looked at her in shock.

"Look Sammy, I'm sorry. I have a lot of things going on with-"

"Save it." She interrupted. She ignored my pleads to come back and walked away.
