(I am so in love with this gif😍)

Late nights with Marce turned out to be our new habit. Me, Marce and Clar would sit out there talking till the sunrise. Truth is, they are too good to be my friends. I dont deserve them. Marce was a way to forget all my problems. I could never forget how much he helped me. Never.

"I don't want to return to highschool, ever", Marce says

"The other teens were so rude to me and I remember going through a tough time. But for one more time, football was my sweet escape from reality and helped me a lot", he admits

"I woul give anything to go back to higschool and generally my childhood. I mean, those were the day man. No problems, no worries, no overthinking ", I start

"And no heartbreaks", I say and sigh

"Oh Come on Estre, better days are coming. You will be happy again, you will have fun, you will find love and you will create a family. Just be patient, God is working on His plan" he says

"I have a theory about soulmates Estre- that God wants to be our sweetheart. And once we fall in love in love with life and have an intimate relationship with Spirit, that's when we meet our soulmate. It's as if God says; You're not meant to be alone on this Earth. I just wanted you to love me first"

"But Marce, just think about it. What if nothing of these happen? What if-", I say and stop

"What if I'm meant to be alone?", I say and look him in his eyes

A tear rolls down my cheek. It is one of my biggest fears to die alone. I am afraid that the years will pass, and one night I'll be lying alone in my bed staring at the wall. And then, I'll only wish that someone would have taken the time to fall in love with me. And a tear will run down my face realising that no one hasn't.

"Well, then we'll be alone together", he says and smiles at me

I am walking in the familiar roads trying to reach the place I'm looking for.

" La bel aube", I read and enter my favourite cafè

The colourful paintings on the wall and the retro posters always managed to change my mood. It is like heaven, but on Earth.

"Good morning Miss, what can i do for you?", a polite waiter asks

"Good morning to you too. What is the most bitter coffee you have? I want it"

"Okay",the waiter says with a confused look and starts making the coffee

"Hello dear", an old woman says to me

"I may not know your name or where you come from, but for I know that you are broken. Your heart is torn apart. And I need to give you an advice", she says

"You don't need to be fixed, you just need to be loved. Find someone who will live you like you are now. Remember that"

>

"Hey Bale, long time no see", I say

I was back to my house when I found Gareth on my way. Damn, it's been a long time. We used to be very close too but after what happened I didn't have the courage to face him. I remember us always having a good time. So much laughter, so much fun. He never failed to put a smile on my face. I was feeling that we had a special connection. But thanks to me, it's all gone now.

Truth is, Gareth always was a pretty handsome guy. And he looked even more handsome at the moment. But I would
He looks handsome, but I only thought of him as a friend and nothing more. I could never replace James with Gareth and hurt his feelings. Never.

Gareth turns around and his eyes lit up when he sees me

"Hey Estre! Wow I really missed you", he says and hugs me

Wait what was that? Did he just smell my hair? Nah, it's probably my idea.

"How have you been? We lost touch some time ago", he says with a sad look

"Well, actually it's a long story. Why don't we hang out tomorrow to catch up?", I suggest

"Sure", he says and smiles bright

"I'll pick you up at 10", he says

"Oh, and dress fancy", he says and winks

"Wait, it's not a date Bale", I say and raise my eyebrow

"Whatever you say Estre. Bye, love you", he says and kisses my cheek

"Bye, love you too", I say and sigh

Little did I know, Gareth's "Iove you" wasn't said out of habit. It was real, and it was coming in waves. Too bad I didn't know how to swim.
