I ran and ran and ran until I couldn't anymore. I went to the one place I knew I could let my thoughts go wild, the beach. I sat in the sand and looked and the waves crashing into the shore making a beautiful sound. The moon was out lighting up the darkness around me. There were so many starts out tonight. I let my thoughts run around in my head not even bothering with the tears that fell from my eyes. I've been keeping everything in for so long I needed to let it all out.

Maybe they were right. Maybe I should be like them, maybe I should be like this society wants me to be like. It's so hard to be the only one that sees what they are doing to us. Even my best friend won't believe me and every time I bring it up she shuts me down. They've brain washed this hole damn town and I'm the only person that actually sees what's going on, do you know how hard this is on me?! It's fucking hard.

"Hey" a familiar voice said from beside me. "What are you doing here" I said with a shaky voice from all the crying I did. "I followed you here" he said like it was no big deal. "You what?" I said "I. Followed. You. Here." He said slowly. " yeah I know that but why?" I questioned. "Because I saw you run out of your house and you looked hurt so I came to make sure you were okay" "yeah don't give me that bullshit" I said looking away from him. He sighed. "Don't start Bryanna" "What?! Don't start Bryanna? Are you serious" I said getting mad. He tells me not to start? He's the one who started all of this. "Ya don't start with me" he said with a little anger in is voice. "I can't believe you" I said getting up. "I can't believe you." He said getting up as well. "You can't believe me?" I said turning around " you heard me" "Oh I'm sorry last I checked I wasn't the one who ignored you for a week and then texts you out of no where like nothing ever happened." "Is that what all of this is about? That's pathetic!" He said looking me dead in the eyes. I walked towards him so that we were only inches apart. "Yeah that is what all of this is about and yeah it's probably pathetic but I'm not the kind of person you can just mute out of you're life and then un mute whenever you feel like."
"I'm sorry" "what?" "I'm sorry! Okay I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you I was busy and I couldn't text you and-" "don't lie to me Matthew" I said cutting him off. "I'm not....I didn't...." He said looking at the ground sighing. "I like you. And I got scared because I've never liked somebody before" "I'm sorry Matt..." I said looking down "For what?" He said. I could feel him looking at me "I don't like you in that way... I'm sorry" I said lying with ever fibre in my body. I did like Matt in that way but there was no way I was going to tell him even though he told me he liked me, I couldn't let him feel that way towards me. He deserved the hole world and well I couldn't give him the world. "It's okay" he said. I looked up to meet his beautiful brown eyes. "C'mon lets go home. It's been a long night" he said walking towards the road. I followed close behind. It has been a very long night and I just wanted to go home and curl up into a ball.
