I knew what I had to do. As I left the park I had a plan of action in mind. First,  I had to go find where I was and where the closest gas station was to fill up my tank. Second, I had to go to Nathan's apartment and break up with him. Just the idea of doing that frightened and deeply saddened me.

I thought that Nathan was the one. I lost my virginity to him twice. The first time I had sex with him I didn't think anything about it. But the second time, I thought that was it, this was the guy I was going to grow old with. This was him. I'm only 19 and I found him. But now I know I'm wrong. Young love doesn't last.

I walk through the park as the sun set. The sky was so beautiful it was pink and purple and the sun peaked through the trees making everything look golden. This was the most beautiful sun set I have ever seen and in any other case I would have spent time soaking it in. But with everything that happened i felt like everything my senses and my feelings were heightened. My heartbreak had a stage to stand on.

"Are you okay?" A handsome man my age  asked me. I looked up surprised that someone was talking to me but as he pointed at me I knew that he was.

"I'm okay. I guess." I said as I scratched my arm.

"Okay. I guess thought I would ask. I hate the idea of any girl, especially a girl like you having such a sad face." He said with a smile and a deep British accent. Looking at him I realized that he was so handsome. He had dark brown hair, green eyes, stood taller than me, had a good build and had signs of a build.

"I'm fine. I just have to go break up with my boyfriend." I said honestly feeling like I could trust him.

"If he is the one you look like this than you should break up with him. You deserve better." He said while putting my hair behind my ears.

"Thanks." I said knowing that he was right. I needed someone who would not break my heart and hurt me like that.

"No problem." He said as he tipped his hat to me and walked off.

I can do this.




I tried to bid my time to try and push back me breaking up with Nathan. I knew that I was going to break up with him. I had to. I can't let him treat me like that. I can't let him cheat on me and break my trust like that. But the worst of all was that I can't believe that he would do this.

I remember when I told him that I was saving my virginity. We were driving back to Nathan's apartment after the fair. After I told Nathan that I didn't want to have sex and he promised me that we didn't have to, he brought it up.

"Why dont you want to have sex?" Nathan asked me as he looked at me from the rear view mirror.

"Well I have spent my entire life hoping to lose my virginity to the man of my dreams and someone I will spend my life with. But with what happened on Friday I know that won't happen anymore. So I don't really know." I said while biting my lip, trying to put it in the right words.

"Why did you want to wait? You told me you weren't religious so why?" He asked me as he turned his head to look at me.

"Well it's because I feel like your virginity is something that you were born with and one of the things that you have control of. It is an important part of you and for me it's an important part that I only wanted to give to someone I loved. You know what I mean?" I asked him while looking at him in the eyes.

"I completely get it." Nathan said while smiling brightly at me and taking my hand to put into the stick and put his hand over it. "So were your waiting for marriage?"

"No I was just waiting for the time I know that that they are the one." I said while looking away shyly. "This may seem dumb but I feel like at a certain point of time you just know you want it. It wouldn't be sex but making love. I mean we didn't have to end up getting married or staying together for the rest of my life. But I just wanted to know that at that moment he loved me and I loved him completely. So that I can look back and knew that it was love."
