The Story Of My Life

Chapter Ten

I just finishing touching up the curls of my natural curly fro. I grabbed my things and walked out of the guest room, turned around and bumped into someone. "Excuse me, my bad, I was moving to fast." I said picking up my makeup bag. "It's okay Tatyana." the voice said, I froze when I realized it was Curtis. "So I see you've been doing good." He said, "Um, yeah I guess so.." we stood there for a minute, "Well I'll see you downstairs, I have to put my stuff up." I said speed walking past him toward the room. I get to my room and see Aaron sitting on the bed.

"Well don't you look handsome." He jumped, "Oh shit baby girl you scared me, I thought I did something wrong and you were trying to change rooms." He said standing up, "No, you did everything right. I just needed to clear my head." I said putting my dirty clothes away, "You look gorgeous." He said wrapping is arms around my waist, "Thank you, but come on bre just texted me saying everyone is downstairs waiting for us." I said grabbing my purse.

We went downstairs and headed to the car. We got to a restaurant called Fireman's Lobster Pit, we walked inside and took our seats. During this dinner, we ate, talked, made jokes and laughed. Soon it was time to leave. We headed back to the house a every one went to sleep except me.

   I went to the beach, with my favorite journal, pen, and my Scooby Doo blanket. I was listening to the sounds of the ocean waves, jotting down whatever was on my mind, Aaron, school, this trip, but mainly seeing Curtis again. Seeing him brought back so many memories, good ones, but also the bad ones.  As I'm writing about Curtis, I don't even realize I'm crying, until a tear hits my paper. I stopped for a second, took a deep breath and tried to calm down.

  It just sucks, because it was at one point in time when we were in love. Always wanting to be with each other, even after petty arguments, always wanting to be around each other. I remembered my first time seeing him, I thought he was so handsome, I told him it was love at first sight for me. I remember when he first walked me home, kind of, he walked me to the stop sign in my neighborhood, ha I remember wanting to kiss him so bad, but all we did was hug and I went home. My favorite memory, our first kiss, that will forever and always be my favorite memory. The first time he kissed me, the butterflies in my stomach, my hands sweating, my pearl getting wet, it was like everything in the world disappeared, until I stupidly pushed him off and ask him why was he kissing me? I still regret ever doing that, but it's funny to laugh at sometimes. It took me years to remember what his answer was, but he said and I quote," Because your beautiful and I like you" I'm cheesing like hell just thinking about it.

  I miss him. I missed him before, but seeing him after so long, made me miss him so much more. It's like after dating for a long time we hit a hard spot. Before we broke up, I kind of feel like we were already falling apart. I don't know maybe I'm thinking about it too hard.

  After a few more minutes of sitting near the water, I was getting ready to head back in. As I'm walking toward the house, I see Curtis. I try to walk past him but he grabs my arm to stop me, "So are you going to continue to pretend like you don't see me?" He asked, "I see you, I'm just keeping my distance." I said softly pulling my arm back, "Why? We left everything on a good note?" He asked, "Because there's no need to be friends, I've told you once, I can't be friends with someone I'm in love with." I said stepping back, "Your still in love with me?" I nodded, "I'm still in love with you too Tatyana." He said stepping closer to me.

"No, don't say that. I'm trying to move on and so are you. I can't... i can't bare to hear you say that." I said getting teary eyed, "I still love you Tatyana." I shook my head no, "I love you" He said once more, "If you love me, why didn't you come back to me? Why are you here with another female? You knew where I was and you didn't come for me!!" I yelled at him crying harder, he just stared at me, "I'm sorry" he said, I just stood there, "I'm sorry." He said again as he walked toward me, "I'm so sorry." He said once more as he lifted my head by my chin and put his arm around my waist and kissed me. It felt like our first time all over again and I didn't want it to end, until my book fell out my hand and I snapped back into reality.

  I pushed myself away from him, grabbed my things and ran into the house. When I got to the room, Aaron was still laying down asleep, I grabbed my towel, teeth supplies, sleeping clothes and went into the other empty guess room. I took at a shower, brushed my teeth, laid down and I cried until I fell asleep.
