chemistry. Not as fun as english where they're reading catcher in rye but it was better this way. first period english held too much pain for her, she usually could've just sat down and paid attention to her english teacher but it was harder than usual. After hearing what happened from Inez about what her now ex boyfriend was doing over the summer while she was at camp. the one boy she's ever loved had crushed her heart the way he promised he never would. he's not malicious he's just a boy and her mother was right. older boys sucked.

But he has the greenest eyes that just trap you. they've known each other since they were seven. well since she was seven and he was eight. their parents have been friends since high school. so the two were inseparable, best friends. their parents joked about them being in love and that they were made for each other and that's why they were born a year apart. She was around when he was having a bad day, he was there to remind her that she's beautiful even if she's not blonde with blue eyes. loving harry styles was a curse.

elizabeth marie gomez made the executive decision that she had to end her relationship. even though she ended it, it hurt to do so. Why couldn't he have been as perfect as he looked? why did he have to be the one to break her heart? he stole all of her firsts and it hurt to think about. here she was in homeroom ready to blow something up with baking soda and she can't even listen to her teacher. theres ten minutes left of class, guess they will blow something up tomorrow. but she won't be over it by then.

The bell rings and the short brunette grabs her bag as she hears the teacher announce they'll finish the lab tomorrow. she slides off her seat her long hair shinning. she took off her safety goggles and put them down on her science station. her partner wasn't there today, he was sick. he just so happens to be friends with harry. or he was until what happened over summer. justin was very kind to her, he'd always been so sweet and caring. She was at summer camp with him when it happened. When harry cheated on her with kendall jenner.

She always thought that he maybe was attracted to kendall more than he was attracted to her, but she never thought in twenty life times the love of her life would cheat on her. When she felt like she was a burden to all of the world old and used up, he was there to make sure she knew that she was special. She can remember clearly every moment she had spent with him. what she couldn't figure out is if it was a waste. Breaking up with the love of your life sucks, but breaking up with the love of your life in high school was probably the worst.

She exited the classroom her books in her hand clutched to her chest she walked through the over crowded hallways. kids stepping over each other, crashing and pushing to get to their next class. counting the red lockers against the wall until she found hers where she found a note taped to it. She knew it was from him, should she throw it away? maybe she should read it. He might be around and throwing it out would get her point across. isn't that what she wants? so why is she reading the damn note instead of throwing it out?

can we talk? she had to read it again, the nerve of him. he cheats while she was away at summer camp and all his note says is can we talk? talk to my foot that i'm about to shove down your throat. she looks around acting hopeful and excited and then she makes eye contact with him. she smiles a sweet smile holding the note up. he looks happy, until she rips it up and throws it away. He's not the best with words but she's sure he could've done better than can we talk? not that she would.

His shoulders sink and he walks away. he looks really good today. He's wearing a blue collared short sleeve shirt tucked into his light blue pants a brown belt and white sneakers. he carried his beige calculus textbook. two rings on his left hand index finger and ring finger. she had given him the one on his ring finger it had the moon on one side and saturn on the other. it was something she used to say to him. "love you to the moon and to saturn." it was on some of the notes she slipped in his locker.
