nineteen.

It was dark outside, the cold, brutal wind blowing against me, pushing me back with its tremendous force. It was just another day, another place, another time. But by now the wind had calmed down and I quickly glanced up, to see that my ride was already there. I started to run until I reached the car, and opened the door. You greeted me with one of your heart stopping smiles, saying absolutely nothing as I entered and plopped down into my seat as we drove away. Time passed and you put your arms around my shoulders, and let them rest on my chest. Trying to comfort me, you whispered silly little things into my ear, and I couldn't resist but to laugh. I felt so vulnerable to everything you said. As you leaned in, I pulled away swiftly, knowing what was going to happen next. I stopped looking at you. Because I could tell that you were...sad. You seemed so disheartened. Of course it hurt me too, so there was not much I could do but to distract myself from this as a whole. The car came to a stop in front of my house. I hastily tried to gather my things, and as I reached for the door handle to push open the door, you grabbed my arm. I turned my head, to find you with tears in your eyes.I was speechless. Its funny how dreams, nightmares, and what not, can become reality in the blink of an eye.

Please don't let this be.
