Chapter 5
That night, I just lay on my mattress (my bed hadn't arrived yet) and processed the events of the afternoon.

Noah.
His name hits me like a rock. My happiness quickly disappears as I am submerged in grief. Noah...I miss you, come back.
Tears bubble up and my bottom lip starts to tremble. I grit my teeth. Stupid Willow, stop being a crybaby and get over him already. Move on.
But as much as I try, I can't seem to let go. I'm still holding on to that shard of glass, believing that it's important to me. The shard tears through my skin. Through my heart.
I can't hold it in anymore. Tears roll down my cheeks and onto my blanket. I'm sorry...But I can't move on.
I need you.
Sorry for the short chapter! I've been busy and I haven't had the time to fully think of what was going to happen next :)
