Mr. Wrong

Forgotten

O N E

I watched one by one as each member of the Taylor family exited from either side of the car. First was Emily, her frilly blonde curls peeking out first, then her blue-green eyes and then her all together. She wore a triumphant smile on her face that showed a huge gap between her tooth front teeth.

I smiled at this. I hadn't seen Emily since school got out and I remember her telling me that she was gonna take summer like a boss and that she's becoming a big girl. "See this right here?!" She said placing her hand on her two front teeth and lightly swaying them back and forth. "This is proof! Once these are out I'm a big girl right?!"

"Well I don't know if I can answer that question Emily ... But if you want an honest answer I think your a big brave girl teeth or not." I gave her a smile and winked and I could see the admiration in her eyes as she smiled back.

"You know... Kody says that you don't realize how brave you are and one time I heard him whispering that you were the most beautiful girl he ever met, besides me of course." She continues to ramble on but my brain stops listening when I think about her saying his name.

I feel like me and him happened ions ago. I don't even know if we're in a  relationship anymore. He just stopped talking  to me all together over the summer which left me hurt and confused. Did he find someone else? Did he stop liking me? Did I say something wrong? Those were the first thoughts I had... I began apologizing and spamming him with messages but still with no response I eventually gave up. Here let me explain to you how this went.

Kody and I have been dating since sophomore year ... It's senior year now. Not once have we gone this long without talking to each other. Yeah we argued and wouldn't talk to each other for days, a week at most ... But an entire month?

It all began when his mother saw an ad for summer family activities in the weekly coupon magazine. She decided to visit this luxury campsite where you can rent a lake house and go water skiing and do all this fun luxury stuff while still camping at the same time. Some confusing thing where you spend Friday's and Saturdays In a tent and then take a break in a lake house. Weird I know.. But anyways ... The first few weeks of summer Kody and I texted like this.

Mr. Strong 💪🏽💗: Hey babe can't wait too see you. I miss you everyday and every night I wanna hold you. Can't wait to come home but I'm having a great time out here by the lake. The schedule for tomorrow says we get to go snorkeling. Emily's really excited and says she misses you by the way. Wish me luck.. Luv u - k

You: Awe babe Imy too. ♥️ Tell little Em I said hi and that I miss her. Also tell her that I'm thinking about ordering us two new face masks (cucumbers and all) for when she comes back home. We can have a makeover again! Btw Kody we should snapchat or FaceTime sometime. I miss your smile and your eyes and your voice.. Alright I'm Gonna stop now.

- B 💋

We did end up video chatting. But that only lasted a week and a half before that fell out and the texts died off completely. I gave him the benefit of doubt.. Maybe he was just busy.

Busy enough where he can post all over Instagram and update his status on facebook but not text back? He completely cutt me off so what would happen now when I saw him again? Are we over? Was that some unspoken breakup? Why had it happened so randomly? We seemed just fine before. WHAT HAPPENED?

My breath hitches in my throat and my thoughts stop when he finally makes it out of the car carrying three suitcases and a travel size backpack. His muscles bulge through his tight-fit shirt and his blonde hair is messy as if he's been sleeping the entire way. His joggers sway lightly in the wind and his black tee gives his tanned skin a sexy glow.

It is then I realize how much I'd missed him. His appearance. His hair. The way his right arm always seemed to snake it's way across my stomach at night. The way our legs would entangle into an unbreakable knot. The way our unspoken kisses and pecks in the dark were only between us and no one else. When we'd make out and think of nothing but us and that moment. The way his tongue glided slowly across the roof of my mouth and then onto my tongue when we kissed. I missed everything about him.

I want to run up to him and jump into his arms and ask him why he blew me off. But I don't. He owes me the explanation. He should be coming to my door. Besides he probably needs to unpack and reorganize himself and his possessions. School starts for the last time, in two and half weeks.

He doesn't even glance in the direction of my house as he walks up the driveway of his own. My heart breaks into a million tiny pieces and this plants  yet another thought into my mind, has Kody just forgotten about me?
