Gorge's POV

I woke up this morning I didn't have a very peaceful sleep. I kept hearing someone walking around and moving things. I looked around the bedroom that I share with Katie. Then I turned around and I didn't see Katie where she usually was. She wasn't in the room at all. She is probably down in kitchen making breakfast with mom. I looked at the nightstand to see what time it is and I saw a note it said

Dear Gorge,

I am very sorry to tell you this, but I have left. Not to go shopping or a
anything but I have left forever. I can't tell you why, but you will know eventually. Perhaps in a few years or so I can come back, but until we are both older I am afraid if I stay I will ruin your life. I have already packed all my things, and I will be safe. I want you to know that I love you more than anyone else in the world.

We will meet again, Katie Marie Bell

I can't believe what I just read. The tears where already rolling down my face. And the fact that I know both of her parents are dead doesn't make it better. She could be living with a complete stranger for all I know. I don't know if she has any aunts or uncles, I sure hope so. I was bawling my eyes out.Everyone had read the letter. I was eating my breakfast in my room. I can't believe that she is gone. I loved her, I still love her wherever she is. I wonder why she left. Was it something that I said. No she wouldn't leave over something like that. It must be big ,like really big. She has gone through devastation before and she turned out fine. I need to find her. I have already lost Fred and I can't lose Katie. I was planning on proposing next month. I had already bought the ring. It is sitting beside the letter that she wrote. I kept it hidden by putting a plastic bag over it. I took the bag off and I was staring at the ring for at least 10 minutes. I was thinking about how maybe if I was priding sooner she wouldn't have left. I was imaging our wedding. Katie in a pretty white dress having the stomach jitters. Me at the end of the alter in a black tux feeling like I'm about to faint. Then I just lost it I started crying harder than I ever have before. Even after Fred died. My whole world just slipped between my fingers. Oh my gosh only if I would have gotten up last night just to see what those noises were. Oh my gosh I'm so stupid.
