Jean's P.O.V
I'm casually walking towards the hallway...It's our first day of school as 10th Graders...
"Jean! I am so glad to see you!" I heard a voice behind me, I turned around and smiled brightly.
"Athena! How are you?" I asked.
She jumped up and down while holding both of her cheeks."I am so nervous but at the same time excited! I guess it helped that I know most of my classmates" she stated, hmm, I guess she's right.
I don't feel as nervous as I was last year.
I smiled even wider when I saw Marie walking up the stairs.
"Marie! Long time no see!" I greeted.All three of us walked down the stairs towards the canteen, we got foods and drinks.
*sigh* I am happy to be back, though, Kayla won't be back anytime.
She decided to study in a far away city.
But all of us are still intouch with her."So, what did you all do last month?" I asked them.
"The usual, though, I guess I enjoyed a little bit more" Athena was the first one to answer.
"I was just swimming" Marie answered next.
I continued to eat my food.
We all chatted every once in a while, but food comes first.
The pain of losing Rob will always be there...I gripped the letter that was in my pocket tight and I remembered the exact moment when I got it...the first time he gave me something...yeah..that was it.
He gave me foreign treats by putting it on my locker...I was so shocked, Athena was suspicious but she still found it cute nonetheless.
I guess anyone would.
He gave me his world..I gave him mine.
I started to tear up but I quickly wiped it away.Athen noticed though.
She held my hand and gripped it gently.As if reassuring that it will be okay.
Everything will be alright.I looked at the morning sky...it's so warm and bright...
The One that got away - Katy Perry started playing from my earphones.
Summer after high school, when we first met
We make-out in your Mustang to Radiohead
And on my eighteenth birthday, we got matching tattoosMarie got up from her seat, I realized that we are all done eating, so I got up from my seat too and walked up the stairs.
Athena was following us byt she's focused on my face.
Used to steal your parents liquor and climb to the roof
Talk about our future like we had a clue
Never planned that one day I'd be losing youI avoided her gaze and just kept walking.
The song is still playing...I wonder why I picked this song...
In another life, I would be your girl
We keep all our promises, be us against the world
In another life, I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were the one that got away
The one that got awayI stopped walking when the chorus hits..in...'another life'?...
I felt my eyes welling up with tears...'I would mame you stay....We keep all our promises...be us against the world'...
I started to shake and my knees became weak.
I was June and you were my Johnny Cash
Never one without the other, we made a pact
Sometimes when I miss you, I put those records on, whoaI started tearing up, records....that's right, I remembered..I record every phone call I had with people that I love...so that I would be able to listen to it again...
I felt myself get pulled by someone to the bathroom..It's Athena..she's hugging me.
The bridge of the song is playing now..
All this money can't buy me a time machine, no
Can't replace you with a million rings, no
I should've told you what you meant to me
'Cause now I pay the priceI cried and broke down infront of Athena, she just hugged me and stroked my hair.
I was gonna be his one and only...I was about to tell him how I really feel..then just that...it's all gone.
But...I'll keep moving on, I know that this is probably what he would have wanted for me.
He loves me and I love him, so I'll do my best to be in a better state.He will foreverbe in my heart...he will always have a piece of me.
I will NEVER forget him.
