Cared for you

Eighteen

I always thought it would be hard to be friends with your ex. Because of all the history Justin and I had. I always thought it would never work out. And even though we had a rough patch the last couple of months we still found a way to work it out.

When we broke up I didn't think I could ever see his face ever again without wanting to scream and cry. But then my heart healed and I grew up and thought about everything that had happened and I realized it was not to dwell on the past and to be mature and let it go. That was so much better than always being angry.

I mean we did have a strong love and he got me to open up to him and trust people. I'm not going lie, after Justin left me I never wanted to talk to another guy ever again. After all those broken promises I thought it would be a waste of time. But then I met Michael and I loved him a lot. And even though he screwed me over in the end too. I knew everything was going to be alright. I would be okay. After everything I have been through boy problems would be a piece of cake to get over.

Because that's life. You have highs and lows. But in the end everything would turn out good you just had to be patient with the world. And if it all wasn't okay than it's not the end.

After Justin and I parted ways the other day. Everything just felt right. We cleared everything up so there were no more problems and we were friends.

And I liked the sound of that.

Friends.

5 years ago when we were still together I had a different vision for us. Maybe we'd be married. And if we weren't married we'd still be together. I'd thought we'd be together forever.

How naive of me?

But now I know there's no such thing as forever.

Even if you marry the love of your life. One of you would eventually end up dying and that's not forever.

But that's not the point. The point is I was young and dumb and thought we'd still be together till now. But I was young then. I'm all grown up now. And even though I liked the sound of having a forever with someone I knew not to count on it actually ending up that way.

There's no point in even talking about this though. We were friends now and I guess that's all that really mattered.

JUSTINS POV

It was time for Shawn to go back. But I haven't seen him since the night we all when out. That probably meant he was with Lindsay or maybe he's dead. Choosing the more reasonable choice I decided he was still with Lindsay. Which meant he got lucky.

I was happy for him because he's had a crush on Lindsay for years now. And I was happy that he's getting his happily ever after. Or happily ever now, because we all forever is just a word with no true meaning behind it.

I mean at least one of us got to be happy.
