The rain beat down onto the ground, nothing illuminating the outside world besides the dim streetlights. The only sound filling my ears was the patter of the rain on the on the wooden porch we stood on, along with the sound of my heart beat pulsing as I looked into his dark brown eyes that were letting tears flow like a damn, but not a sound escaping the mans mouth. We both knew what brought us to this point. My heart, that beat so loudly and the man standing behind the dark oak door, that’s what.
‘‘It’s Johnny, isn’t it?’‘ he finally spoke, somehow looking more broken than before. I couldn’t bring myself to say it, but we both knew.. It was.
Tears finally made there way down my face, the look in his eyes breaking my heart.
‘‘I never stood a chance, did I?’‘ Mark asked, shoving his hands into his pockets, about to leave forever.
‘‘but once, you did’‘
