Opposites Attract

I'm sorry

Melody:

Blake's words left me thinking the whole day

do I really love Jake? I mean sure he is sweet, kind and funny, but do I really love him

I hear a knock at the door.

"come in" I yell

my mom walks in

"sweetheart, I got you some chocolate and ice cream" she says

"umm thanks mom" I happily start digging into the ice cream

"honey, I realized that we aren't very close, and I really want us to be closer, you have been acting closed off from the rest of us"

"I'm sorry mom, I just have a lot on my mind" I answer

"like what" she asks

"nothing"

"come on, you can tell me"

"do you ever feel like something is not right even though everything is perfectly fine" I ask

"yes, but honey if you know something is wrong, you just have to go with it. you have to trust yourself"

I find myself nodding to what she is saying

that is when I made up my mind

"mom, I need to go" I say

she nods

I give her a peck on the cheek and head out the door

I text Jake to meet me at the park

I jump into the car

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Jake and I sit under a tree

"what did you want to talk about" he asked

"well, I was thinking about us, I feel like we rushed things"

"what do you mean"

"I was hurt by Blake, and I just wanted to forget him, so I jumped into relationships one after another. with you I thought things was right, but I never forget my feelings for Blake, you don't deserve that, you deserve someone that loves you for you, someone who isn't me" I say

there are tears in Jake's eyes

"I'm sorry" I say

"no, no its fine, I just want you to be happy" He offers me a weak smile

I offer him one back

"I don't mind if we break up, but can we still be friends" he asks

"of course we can" I say throwing my hands around his neck

at that moment, I knew everything was going to be ok
