         We pulled up in the driveway and saw welcome home signs that Tyler put up. How did i get so lucky to have him. He ran out to hug me when i got out of the car. His strong arms wrapped around my waist and I felt myself being lifted and spun around. 

              Just as I reached the ground he whispered "I've missed you Ave." Nobody has ever called me that before. Not even him. 

           He walked me inside while his hand was placed in mine. He asked me if I wanted to go out tonight. Truth be told I was terrified to go on another date ever again. Ever since the accident I barely even want to look at my boyfriend. Instead of saying no my lips had to form a yes. 

         I told him I need to get ready, and ran upstairs. I walked into my room to find that it was redecorated. 

       "I thought you might want a change." 

           "Frickersticks! Mom, you scared me half to death. Don't sneak up on me like that." I said in a surprised tone

               I quickly grabbed a pair of ripped jeans, put on my maroon peplum top and my  high top converse

               I quickly grabbed a pair of ripped jeans, put on my maroon peplum top and my  high top converse. I put on some mascara and i was out the door. 

        Tyler was waiting patiently by the door when i came rushing down the stairs.

      We walked outside after Tyler promised my mom we would be back before 12 o'clock. He walked me to the car door and opened it for me. 

       He was taking me to dinner and after we were gonna go back to my house to watch a chickflick. we arrived at my favorite restaurant and I realized I hadn't had  food from The Coffee House in over seven months. we went up to order and I stumbled a little while looking at Tyler's glittering eyes. 

        After a dinner with just us for the first time in what's seems like forever. we headed back to my house.

         "Well you two love birds are back soon." 

         "We wanted to come back and watch a movie. Is that ok?" I asked. 

   " Yeah of course, honey."

    After about an hour of watching the movie, I fell asleep on Tyler's chest. The movie finished up and i was still half asleep. 

     Tyler scooped me up in his arms and headed toward the stairs. He took me to my room and quietly put me on the bed. He unfolded the covers and he placed then on me took keep me from getting chills. He scoot me over to one side of the bed and laid down next to me. 

       I started to wake up and noticed he was on the other side of me. He was staring at the ceiling as a rolled over. While checking to make he was awake I rolled to the other side so i wasn't facing him. 

      I felt my hair being brushed from my eyes and tucked behind my ear.  That's when I felt the brush of his cheek on the tip of my ear. He went to whisper something to me but I could feel him stutter. He laid back beside me but I could feel him shaking. 

     He leaned up again as if he was about to leave but something pulled him back. That's when the news no girl ever wanted to hear was whispered in my ear. 

    "I'm sorry. I didn't want this to happen, but you were in a coma for so long and I didn't know what else to do. I shouldn't have kissed that nurse, but I just got cared away. I know you can't hear this, but I just can't tell you the way I wanted to. I can't do this anymore." 

         Wet tears streamed down my face as he left my room. I couldn't believe it. I was angry, mad, and worse I was actually in love with him. All of that hope was gone. He was taken away from me in a blink of an eye, and the worst part was he was all I had left. 


Hey y'all! I was struggling to write this because nobody likes a breakup like this. The worst part was the fact that he thought she would never know. In all due time Tyler and Avery's relationship is over. Can y'all guess what will happen next.
