"Am I your first love?" he asks.

"Nope. I think you're like the twenty-seventh, but I'm not sure." I say half-jokingly.

A light chuckle escapes his lips and for a moment, I feared that I would never hear the sound of his cheerful laughter again. The laugh that brightened up any room he entered, the one that lights up my every day.

I never knew that I could fall so deeply for someone. I loved every inch of his being and it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to say that my heart beats solely for him. I couldn't fathom losing him. It would break me.

After a few seconds of uneasy silence between us and picking at the grass, he speaks up, "Tell me about him."

"My first love? Why do you want to know about him?"

"Well, it would be nice to know what the very first person my girlfriend fell in love with was like. And why he lost you."

Biting my lower lip, I reluctantly let out, "I lost him, actually. My entire family moved to another state and I couldn't handle a long-distance relationship."

Surrounded by a solemn silence, I wondered to myself,

Will it be how I'll end up losing you too?
