Ethan
Looking into her eyes was the hardest thing ever.
The silence only lengthened the time that life seemed suspended between us-making the situation even harder. I hated it.
I couldn't bear seeing her this way...
She looked up at me like I was the only person in the world, and that only shattered my heart into pieces.
She was way too good for me. Way out of my league.
What was I thinking? That I could be the one to make her happy?
That I would bring sunshine to her cloudy days?
And love into her heart?
I loved her too much for that; I knew I couldn't do it.
I would have to let her go...
Someone out there was made for her, and I knew it wasn't me.
It couldn't be me...could it?
The smell of her perfume was driving me crazy, and her green orbs only made what I needed to say harder.
But I had to say it.
Barely had I opened my mouth to speak when...
I shot up out of my bed, heart pounding, still sweating.
Great. Now I'm dreaming about her.
I sat up in my bed, scratching my bruised knuckles.
My mom had received a phone call from the principal, stating that I was suspended for a week. Which meant I couldn't go to the dance, leave the house, or attend school for seven whole days. I sighed, staring out the window which I had left slightly ajar.
I hadn't spoken to Evelyn in what seemed like forever, and the bond between us had totally disappeared. I loved her, but I knew what we had had to go.
I couldn't keep hurting her like this. I wasn't who I used to be, and I knew that very well. I didn't deserve her.
It had to end. Our love had to be terminated, and we had to act like it never was there in the first place.
Somehow I had to get to her. I had to make her hate me so she wouldn't come back. I had to make her forget about everything we had....
I had to break her heart once more.
