Skye

"Mark are you ready?"

"Tired?"

"Yeah, I just wanna go to sleep and be ready for tomorrow morning when I leave my home."

"C'mon lets go up and go to sleep."

"Okay c'mon, let me say bye to my parents."

"Okay I'll wait here.

Mark

I watch Skye as she goes up to her parents and talks to them for a bit. I sigh to myself and rub my face in frustration. I couldn't believe what I did last night, I had her and then I let her go, but for what a stupid reason. I had the chance to convince her this one time to be with me and I blew it because I wanted her to be happy, I knew she still loves him.

I know her happiness isn't stupid but she seemed happier with .. Me. I haven't seen her smile the way she does when she's with me, it seems like I can make her happier side come out with me. Why Mark, why did you blow your chance?

"Mark?"

"Yeah?"

"Let's go, my parents said bye by the way."

I wave to them as I get up and leave with Skye. As we walked together to the elevator I could see the session we had in there the day before, I miss that. We step in together and wait patiently as it goes up to our floor. We stood their awkwardly and I knew that she was forcing to hold her hand tightly and to herself, I was doing the same. I just wanted to hold her hand, mostly hold her.

When the elevator opened to our floor she walks ahead of me. She opens the door and just walks in, was she upset?

"Skye what's wrong?" I ask as I walk in.

I didn't hear anything, I walk more in and see her laying on her bed face down in her dress. I sit next to her and pat her back.

"Skye what's wrong? Please tell me."

She sits up and and grabs my hand.

"Why Mark?"

"Why what?"

"Why did you break this off?"

"You know why."

"But it doesn't seem like a good one to me."

"Skye, I don't want to be-"

She grabs my face and smashes our faces together. She holds me close and I was just shocked that she was even doing this. It was about a minute when we pull away and I still shocked.

"If that is the reason then fine, one last kiss won't hurt."

"Skye, I'm sorry."

"It's fine really, if you care enough about my happiness to put us off then thank you. But remember this you make happy and everything that you have given me so far is far much more important than anything else in the world."

"Really?"

"Yes, now I'm going to get ready for bed."

Skye gets off the bed and and grabs a pair of clothes before going into the bathroom and closing the door behind her. Once it's closed and I hear the shower turn on I whisper something to myself, "I love you."

Skye

I turn on the shower and I felt myself sadden even more, so that was really the last kiss. I slide down the door onto the floor and hug myself close. I collect myself and whisper something to myself, "I miss you."
