Stephen's P.O.V

It was Saturday and I went to school with Kyle it was opening night. He was going to go on stage but he seemed super pale. While getting ready he took the bucket and started barfing his brain out.

"Kyle! Wassup? Stage nerves?" I said super grossed out.

"Nah I think I have the bug that Ramen had." He said I took 2 steps back, I can't stand the smell of vomit,.... I guess Illianawas a special case.

"Damn how are you going to perform?" I asked.

"Listen I can't but you can." He said

"No bro." I said.

"You did everything with me line by line no body can do it better then you can.  .  . If you don't want to do it for me do it for Illiana. This is really important to her" he begged.

"'Fine. Let's get this over and done with" I said.

I got ready and the stage director called me out. At first Illiana was shocked to see him but then placed all the emotion she could into the character

Last Scene Of The Play
Lady Adrea (Illiana) & Sir Thompson (Stephen) in the castle's garden fire flies lighting up the garden.

Lady Andrea:
You told me our love would have no price
Sir Thompson:
It wasn't supposed to
Lady Andrea:
When you look in my eyes do you see who you saw before.
Do you see less or more? (Eyes filled with tears)
Let me tell you kind Sir
I paid to love you (standing firm but tears rushing down her face)
I gave you my heart
Which is now broken bleeding.
I am pleading with you do not say you love me.
You left me!
When you left seconds felt like months, months felt like years.
I grew a need for you, a need that filled me with passion and left me searching for my soul.
(Dramatic pause)
So now I will kiss you one last time, knowing you will never be mine.
(She Kisses him passionately)
I will say goodbye to my love and maybe one day when I look in your eyes I will see my love again.
Sir Thompson:
I wish I hadn't let you go but now I see your lost in pain. Please know that I will wait for your scars to heal and make you mine again. Your love will always be in love with you but I will lock him away till the fog of hate no longer hides the love you feel for me. One day Lady Andrea we'll discover each other again.
(Lady Andrea walks away Sir Thompson falls to his knees The curtain closes)
The End


Aftet the play was done all I could think of was the last kiss. That kiss was very real. The last scene felt very real. I got a knock at the door and it was Illiana.

"What was that?" Illiana asked.

"Erm. . .a play." I said.

"Where is Kyle?" She asked still furious.

"He's sick I guess he didn't get his shot. Listen Illiana about the whole ghosting you thing. . . " I said scratching my head before she interrupted.

"No need to explain, you got bored Blah Blah" she said rolling her eyes.

"No! That's not it" I defended

"Is this going to be another apology. . . I'm not going to accept, then you're gonna make another spectacle in front of the whole school, right? Wrong, Okay Stephen Carter Stone, I forgive you but I want absolutely nothing to do with you!" She said and stormed out of the door.

Damn I Really Am Falling In Love With Her even with the amount of distance I tried to put between us. My body felt weak before I was just acting but now I know exactly how Sir Thompson felt in that moment. I was mentally starting to spiral

How did I manage to lose her?

But I never had her?

I almost had her I could tell she was mad cause I hurt her.

Why did I hurt her?

Did she really feel the same?

What if she didn't and I fell hard just to get rejected or worse cheated on?

What if she's mad cause she saw me as a genuine friend and not a boyfriend?

Damn. . . I Really Messed Up.

I missed her.

100 what if were enlaced in my mind and I couldn't stop thinking about her. I heard a knock on the door everything in my body was hoping it was Illiana.

Unfortunately it was my mom and dad.

"BABY YOU WERE AMAZING!!! You didn't tell me you were a lead character!" My mom screeched.

"I'm not I was filling in for Kyle, he's sick" I explained.

"Are you okay?" My dad asked.

I shook my head in frustration, I had a knot in my throat and all I wanted to do was jump in a whole and die. People can only see a Stone man cry at a funeral. So I stormed out, jumped in my car and spead off.  I didn't know where I was going but I didn't care. I found myself at Lost Lane Peak it was on the rough side of town but people knew not to touch me and my family.

I just sat there pulled out a cig and smoked. Imagine being the cause of your own broken heart. I smoked and smoked that night, till the early morning. No sleep, just there watching the sun go come up. I drove home once the sun came up.

My mom ran to me and gave me a tight hug.

"WHERE WERE YOU AND WHY DIDN'T YOU ANSWER YOUR PHONE!?" She screamed.

"I was just. . . I'm sorry" I said.

"Why didn't you answer your phone?" She yelled.

"It's not a big deal ma" I said.

"YES IT IS! I know your father has this mucho act, but my son will not swallow his pain. Listen please tell me what's wrong there's no need to mask it?" she said

'"I just messed up and need to figure out how to fix what is broken." I said.

"What did you mess up?" She asked.

"I think I fell for someone and I pushed them away." I said.

"So this is about Illiana? Why didn't you just say that?" She asked.

"Illiana. . . No it's not" I lied.

"Mother's know these things, you don't need to lie" she said.

"Fine but it doesn't matter. It's done before it started." I said.

"No, that girl cares for you more than Mia ever did. I can tell how much she cares for you by the way she looks at you." My mom stated.

"But right now she doesn't want anything to do with me" I explained.

"You made her feel as though she wasn't need or replaceable, so she's hurt and now she wants to remove that attachment. It's easier to let go of things that are gone so you should be around her constantly show her why you are so important to her" my mom said.

"How?" I asked.

"I'll tell you once you take a shower and go sleep" she said.

"I'm not tired" I said stubbornly.

"Of course you are, you have bags under you're eyes, I doubt you slept and your eyes are puffy. . . I guess from crying." She said.

"I'll go sleep." I said.

I went to bed.
