My Seasons of Love

Winter

Winter.

It's cold, bleak and empty. Just like his heart. We broke up early December.

Him: can we take a break?

Me: your kidding right?

All then and there I felt lost. What could have led it to this? Weren't things going great? What was his problem.

"Alex I want the ring back" he said it so casual. Didn't he know that he was was slowly breaking me inside. The way he acted, even if he did know I don't think he would care.

" you know what fine take the ring! Take it and stay away from me!"

We haven't spoke since. I receive a txt from a good friend of mine. His name is Anthony.

A: hey

Me:hi r u walking home tomorrow?

A: ya why?

Me: I just need to talk.

The next morning I walk into school. The boy who broke my heart last night is standing on the hallway. I take the ring off my finger and put it on a desk in the classroom

"Hey Mr. Allia can u tell E that his ring is in here"

"Of course Alex". I smiled and walked out of his room. I headed upstairs until he spoke. I flinched towards the noise and I said "your freaking ring is at Allia's". I turned and walked upstairs.

Other than that unfortunate event I had pretty much a normal day. Bio, History, Art, Algebra, English than Band. The day went by pretty fast. After school me and my friend waited until I saw Anthony. He gave me a hug "Let's go" I said

His 5 ft 8 inch tall fit body lingered beside my .5 ft body.

I played with his thumb. My finger traced the line of his nail an knuckle and I put it down. I knew he had liked me for quite a while now.

" so u wanted to talk?" He said his voice echoed in my head.

"ya, did you hear?"

"About what?"

"me and Ethan broke up last night."

Saying the words off my own lips tasted like pure lemon juice, so sour and unforgiving to chapped lips.

"I didnt know, I'm sorry"

" It's okay." I bowed my head for I have been defeated by hope and love. Ethan love never existed. I got ally my hopes up for nothing, absolutely nothing. He took my hand into his. I leaned on his shoulder as we continued to walk, but he shrugged it off. I looked up at him with questioning eyes. than the sugar was put in the lemon juice and the question was music to my ears.

He looked into my eyes, so focused on what he was about to say." will you go out with me"

"Yes" I said. And we kissed. We walked the rest of the way hand in hand till it was our time to depart.
