My Heartbeats

Chapter 1

Jason's POV

"It's over!" "Jason I didn't mean it." "It's over!" I walked away and never looked back at the girl who broke my heart. I was done with the lies and the games. I needed to be alone so I could find myself. "I need to put my music first an forget about girls." I mumbled. Girls didn't do anything but lie and cheat an I was done with that. I went home and went into my room and picked up my guitar. There was a melody in my head so I went to writing. When I finished I had a song called hicktown. I thought it was good, I'm just hoping it's good enough to get me out of Georgia.

Amanda's POV

"And being apart ain't easy on this love affair.." I was singing Journey and laying in my bed with the lights out. I heard the door so I opened one of my eyes. My mother was standing there looking at me. She had a strange look on her face so my heart kinda jumped. "Mom what is it?" I sat up an grabbed my radio remote. I pressed the power button turning the radio off. As she walked over to the bed I prepared myself for bad news about my father. He's in the army and he is deployed right now. She sat on the bed an looked at me. "How was work?" "It was the same as usual." "Ah." She looked around. "Is it daddy?" "Kinda." "Is he alright?!" "Yes he's fine." "Oh then what is it mommiecans?" I leaned against my head board and she came an sat next to me. "I like this room." She exhaled. "Ma you're killing me." "We have to move honey." I didn't know how I felt about that. My life was here, my friends, my boyfriend. "I guess it was coming huh?" "I'm sorry." "It's alright mom, it's part of life. Where are we going?" "Georgia." "Ugh why couldn't it be New York?" I frowned and she started laughing an left. I got up an closed the door behind her then went an sat on the edge of my bed. "I guess it was coming." I exhaled an started to cry. I didn't know how this would affect my relationship. I've been with this guy since ninth grade and I really love him. He4 my first in everything, boyfriend, love, sex, all of it. (The sex part isn't true I just think it would be better for the story.) "Ugh." I pulled myself together an started to take my things out of the closet. I needed things to put my clothes in so I went to find my mother. She was in the kitchen talking to my boyfriend Dru. I was dreading telling him I had to move. The thought of losing him was way to much for me. "Hey." I said and Dru came an stood in front of me. "Hey." He looked upset so I figured he already knew. My mother must've told his mother an she told him. "Wanna go talk?" I asked. "Yeah." We went up to my room and he closed the door. "You're moving?" He looked so hurt an it made me cry. "Yeah, my dad." He came and put his arms around me. "Where?" "Georgia." "What's so great about Georgia?" "Nothing." I went an looked out of the window. "It's only 11 hours away, I'll come to see you every time I can." "You don't wanna brake up?" "Hell no, were not gonna let distance rip us apart. I love you and 11 hours can't... No, 11 hours won't change that." "I'll come here an much as I can." I cried a lot more then Dru and I cuddled in my bed an listened to the radio. While we were laying there I couldn't help but close me eyes and wonder what things would be like. I'm moving 11 hours away, that's not just down the road. "Maybe I should just brake up with him. It could be better for the both of us and it'll stop any questions him or myself will have about what we're doing." I shook it off and opened my eyes. "Dru?" "Yes?" "Maybe we should brake up." I sat up an looked at him. "No why?" "You'll be here and I'll be there, I don't want to have questions about what you're doing and I don't want you to have questions about me." "I trust you, don't you trust me?" "Yes." "Then why would we have questions?" "I'm not gonna be right down the road anymore, I'm gonna be in another state far away." I started to cry. "Amanda I don't care if you were in another country! Moving isn't going to change anything!!" "I just want you to be happy." I put my head down. "You make me happy, don't walk away." "I'm sorry." I sniffed. "Don't cry, we're going to make this work I promise." "Ok." He kissed me and we went back to listening to the radio.

After Dru went home I started packing again. I still needed stuff to put things inside of so I went to talk to my mother. "Hey mom?" I went into the kitchen. "I'm sorry." "Mom it's alright, I need boxes and bins to put my things in." "Ok, there are a few in the basement if you need more let me know alright?" "Alright." I went to get the bins then went back to my room. I was just about finished putting my things up when my best friend Tiffany walking in. Tiffany and I have been friends since high school. We had the same trigonometry class in 10th grade. I went in and she came in after me, she said she like the shirt I had on an we've been friends every since. "Hey... Who that's going on here?" "We're moving." "Why?" "My dad." "Oh you're moving away?!" "Yeah.." She started crying. "I'm sorry." I went an hugged her. "Where are y'all going?" "Georgia." "Ugh.. This sucks!" "I know." I sat on the bed an put my head down. "I know but that's life." "What about Dru?" "We said we were going to work through this." "Really?" "Yeah." "I'm glad y'all going to work it out." "Me too, I don't know what I would do with out you and him." "Will I'm gonna come see you all the time, you better not find a new best friend." "You either." I hugged her. We talked for a while then she left and I went back to getting my things packed. Throughout the next two weeks Dru and I spent as much time as we could together.
