Scarlett's pov:
That promise wasn't only a promise it was a promise full of love and hope. I didn't expect my life to end this happy, as I always imagined my life being controlled by my father. Marrying someone I hated but my family loved, they don't approve of Channing because he's handsome but not so smart. These days all my dad cares about is my grades not about my happiness and future. Anyway back to the story Channing and I have been dating now for 3 months, it's a smooth relationship.
My phone went of.
Hey babe, everything ok you've been avoiding me for a few days now. Have I done something wrong please tell me if I have? x
Well I forgot about that, I hadn't text Channing because I don't want to tell him that I'm going to a university but it's in Britain. ill be away for 3 years maybe coming back for a few months at a time but that's not the point. How could I tell him I got aways in 4 months and I've known since the start of the school year!
hey, listen I need to talk to you, meet me at the park in an hour. xx
I fell ill knowing that I was about to tell the one man who I love more than anyone that I was away for 3 years. Pale as a doll face, butterflies in my stomach what more to think about then
"hey gorgeous" Channing ran up to me and squeezed "I've missed you"
I laughed " yeah me too, "
" so what do you want to talk about is it serious? you not breaking up with me are you?"
I stood still. The look on his face was like a hundred bombs had fallen on his head.
" No no don't be so stupid, I love you to pieces, but I'm going away for 3 years to a university in Britain."
" What! 3 years how do expect me to live here without you, can't I come with you and stay in an apartment it not like I've never been to Britain before.
" Babe, listen I am rethinking there's a university here. but my father insisted I have to go, when I was younger I promised him I wouldn't change my dreams for boys but I never knew I'd meet you."
" Scarlett I can't live like that!" he walked off and never said goodbye
Tears streamed down my face while walking home. Thoughts of why I have to fall in love, He's the one person who make me happy.
1 week has past not one call,Not one text. Every time I look at our messages I see my messages:
I'm sorry x
hello?
hi.. xx
I didn't mean anything I won't go if it makes you happy!!!
It breaks my heart not knowing if he will ever speak to me again. I have a shift at the coffee shop this after noon and I really don't want to go. 5:00pm time to go to work, it was pissing down with rain and I wasn't well normal Channing brings me a hot chocolate but it seems like not this time. While I was cleaning the back shelf Sophie one of the staff, shouted that there was a box on the table for me. I went over and opened the box it was full of things little notes on them.
Tissues Note: for your nose
Paracetamol Note: for your head
Medicine Note: for your cough
Chocolate Note: look up, go for your dreams ill be right behind you
I looked up to find Channing standing outside the window in the rain smiling at me. I gasped a laugh.
