Part 1
BRANDON:
Love...I never knew what love was. Growing up in a family that never showed or expressed their love, and finding out that the girl who I thought I was suppose to be with all my life suddenly leaving made it even harder to believe in. Lynette and I were friends since the beginning, and I never thought she would leave me so cold. This is how my story begins...
It all began during the 4th grade. Now at the age of 10 boys don't really like girls, and if one does. it isn't like love. Well I walked into my 4th grade class and took my assigned seat, but then someone was seated upon it. I didn't know who it was, but all i knew it was a girl. She was a new student.
"What are you doing in my seat?!" I asked. "This is your seat? Sorry." she apologized. "My name is Lynette" I replied "Umm...my name is Brandon" and that is how we met. As time progressed, we became best friends, which is really weird for little kids. Usually you would see two guys playing marbles or two gurls talking about Barbies, but it was different with me and Lynette, we were unseperable. The only intergenderal pair of kids.
Well, we made a pact one day..."Lynn, you are my best friend and I don't want to lose you, ever, in my life." I said. "Same here. Thanks for telling me that. I just wanted to add that without you, I don't know where I would be." she said. Then it hit me, "Let's make a pact that we will never leave eachother and will remain together forever and that one day, when we get older, we will never leave eachothers' sides." I said. Being a kid back then, not knowing what was going to happen, we actually thought that we would be together, forever. We were so young and innocent that it never occured to us that life would happen. "Okay" was her answer, and she sealed it with a kiss as she kissed me on my cheek.
It was the 8th grade now, 4 years after we met and we've matured and started dating people. I was always there for her with her guy problems. She dated more than I did because I wasn't really into that stuff. I was more into games and sports, but always lended an ear whenever she needed it. She was going out with my friend Johnny at the time while I was at home. I didn't know she was gone. I was having problems with my family. My mom was yelling at me for no apparent reason, no one knew my situation with my family, not even Lynette. "You are a stupid kid! There is no one stupider than you! Retard! How can you lose your wallet? You think we are rich and can afford to lose $40? You know I wish I never had a dumb child like you. I wish I could have killed you when you were born, save me all this trouble and money...etc. etc." My mom was yelling and her words hurt. I looked at my step father, but he didn't even attempt to stop it.(My mom divorced my real dad. I thought that my step dad would help out sometimes when we were getting yelled at, but he did nothing. After this incident I stopped calling him dad, and began to call him Alex because he wasn't anyone to me anymore) I ran to my room and put a chair to block the doorway(before she had a chance to hit me). I grew scared and I needed someone to talk to, so I decided that I would call Lynette. I called and her sister picked up.
"Is Lynn there?" I asked and heard a reply of "No." Crying and sitting by the wall my heart felt weird. It was the first time I ever felt this way. Hearing that she wasn't home and that she didn't even tell me where she went made my heart twist and twirl inside my ribcage. It was not necessarily pain or disappointment, but finding out she wasn't home really bothered me. Then it hit me. After four years of friendship, I finally realized that I liked her! Just as I realized that, my mom broke through the door and was even angrier than before. She had a bamboo feather duster in her hands and this time I was trapped. I had nowhere to go. She grabbed my arm and flung me onto the bed and began to punish me for what I had done, telling me how stupid I was after every hit...
*WHACK* You're a stupid child. How can you lose a wallet? *WHACK* $40! *WHACK* Retard! Handicapped! *WHACK* Why do I even bother with you? *WHACK* You should be dead!
I was crying my heart out, but not by the whipping I was recieving. The verbal abuse she kept telling me hurt a lot worse. *WHACK* I don't love you. I should have killed you!
I shut my eyes and the tears that were gathered in my eyes fell down and followed the trail that the previous ones left behind. At that moment was when I finally realized that I needed Lynette in my life, and that is the first time and only time I revealed my feelings for her. I whispered, "Lynn...I need you."
The next day Lynette asked me if we could talk. I agreed and she said that she would meet me at my house. She didn't sound too happy. I walked to my room and there was a knock on my window. It was her. I let her in, and she sat on my bed. "Sit," she said and patted the area right next to her on my bed. "I'd rather stand" I said rubbing my butt, remembering the punishment i recieved. She then told me the devastating news. "I don't know how to start this Brandon, but I'm moving away tomorrow. My mom and dad feel as if that you have been a bad influence on me, and want me to get as far away as possible from you, so they are making me move to France to a fancy boarding school. They say that I will become a refined woman this way. I'm sorry Brandon. I wish I could--" she was saying before getting cut off by me. "Get out!" I yelled. I didn't mean to sound harsh, but i just couldn't go through this after what I went through just the other day. "Brandon, I...I Lov--" she was saying. "I don't care. Get the hell out! You are leaving me and I can't handle that! You were suppose to be there for me, always? Remember? Remember that we would always be together?! You are breaking the pact! Remember the pact? Or was that all just a bunch of BS to you?! Forget it! Just leave!" I began breaking down and fell to the floor landing on my butt which brought more pain. She reached over and touched my shoulder, but I jumped back. "Dont touch me! Just get the hell out of here! Leave!" I screamed. "Okay, I'll leave, but I hope to see you tonight at our New Year's party right? I asked my mom and she said that we are leaving right after the party." She explained. "No, I don't want to see you. It's too hard. You should just leave because I don't want to start a new year with you if I can't finish this current year with you, so just leave. You may say you love me, but I only see you as a friend. I don't love you and as of right now, I hate you...GET THE HELL OUT OF MY ROOM!" With that said, she bursted out of my room crying and bursted out of my life...
I did not know how to react. I have never liked a girl before. When I finally did, she left me. What I'm angry about more, is that I never said goodbye. I never let her know how I felt, and now it has been three years since she left. I am now a Junior in high school and my heart hasn't forgave me for what I've done. I regret doing that, but what's done is done. A lot of things have happened since she left and I can't handle everything that's happening. My family life hasn't improved any now than it was in the past, I was beginning to move on, but I was struggling with school and isolated myself, so i had no more friends. So here we are in the present and caught up. I decided to end it all here, and was going to commit suicide this night. I decided to go online and say my goodbyes, but it was more than just that, something was telling me to sign on. Like i needed to sign on before I did what I planned on doing. I was trying to stall as long as possible because I didnt want to die, but I had no reason to live. I saw all of my online contacts on and I didn't want to talk to any of them. I grew annoyed. I recieved like 8 IM's, but didn't feel like talking. When the feeling of hope went away, I was about to sign off. That's when someone IMed me with the screenname of SwTBbChEeKz. I didn't know who it was, but something felt right about replying back. The little feeling of hope I had returned. I accepted the message and saw the words that saved my life...
SwTBbChEeKz: Hi! You seem cool!
Part 2
DIANA:
'Gosh I am sooo bored! I feel so lonely too. Hmmm...let's see who's online? Blah. It's only Tommy and Rachel. I had a thing for Tommy, for some odd reason, I liked him, but he decided to go for my friend Rachel. Ugh, this sucks! Why do these things always happen to me? I really have to expand my buddy list. I think I will talk to some weird people I don't know. Hmmm...look at all these people: AzNFrOgGy4U, LiLAnGeL4rmAbOvE, AznOnE. What losers!Hahaha. I think i will just talk to Rachel. Wait a minute, who is this person? His screenname seems interesting, LoStWiDwOrDz. Hmmmm....I remember a guy named Brandon with that same screenname. Maybe that's him! But I don't want to sound stupid, 'Hi! Remember me? That gurl you used to talk to? Well I used to like you, so what's up?' Uhh...no. How naive can I be? Ugh! Besides, it might not even be him! It's not like there is only just one Brandon in the world. His name isn't that uncommon. Hmm...I think I will IM him. Oh well, here goes nothing.'
SwTBbChEeKz: Hi! You seem cool!
LoStWiDwOrDz: Ummm...thanks, but I am kinda busy and I am going to sign off right now, so perhaps you should just leave me alone.
SwTBbChEeKz: Oh I see. Bad day? Bad life? I know how you feel.
SwTBbChEeKz: Oh sorry, you wanted me to leave you alone. Okay, but before I go, are you Brandon Hao?
LoStWiDwOrDz: What? Huh?! How do you know me?
SwTBbChEeKz: You answer me first, since I asked first.
LoStWiDwOrDz: Yeah I am Brandon Hao. Now who are you? Because I don't feel like talking to anyone at the moment. I am busy and I need a reason to stay on, and trust me, I need a reason.
SwTBbChEeKz: Well I am Diana. We used to be friends in the 6th grade, but then my parents made me move away...we kept in contact though like two years ago...my sn was QTBabieDi...
LoStWiDwOrDz: Oh my God! Diana! Long time no talk! =) So what is going on Dee?
SwTBbChEeKz: For one it's not Dee, it's Di. Di with an "I" not "EE" but its pronounced the same, like the letter "D" got that smarty?
LoStWiDwOrDz: Haha. Wow I haven't smiled or laughed in a long time.
'Wow! It was him!' Diana thought to herself. She began to feel a weird feeling. All of her feelings she had for Brandon began to resurface, and she began to feel weird. She knew that she had started to like him again, but what did he mean by "busy?" She didn't bother to ask him and soon forgot. They caught up on their life and everything else. It turned out that Lynette, his friend who he had grown to like moved away. I remember those two used to be unseperable. Everyone thought that they would be together forever. 'He still doesn't like me. Why do I even hope?' she thought to herself. The story about him and Lynette was so sad. He never got a chance to say good bye or anything, and he kicked her out of his house, when she was about to say "I LOVE YOU." He never told her that he liked her.
BRANDON:
'This is sooo weird! Diana Wu, the girl that I was infatuated with while Lynn was seeing other people, actually remembers me!! I mean I wasn't with Lynn, and she was the girl of my dreams.' Brandon thought. He began to feel queasy. He felt his heart twist amd turn and he knew that he was beginning to like Diana again. "But I can't tell her. She doesn't like me. We are nothing more than friends.' he thought. He found out that Diana was just looking for someone to talk to, and saw his screenname not expecting it to be him. She was going to say that it was a dare if it wasn't him. They ended up talking for the rest of the night, making Brandon forget what he planned to do that night, and she soon became the reason for his existance. She was the reason why he wanted to live, and they became close and then best friends. As it turns out, Diana had moved back to California, but not in the same area. Weeks passed by and they became closer and closer. They would see eachother often and kick back at eachothers' houses. They were at his house one day, and were laying down on the sofa. 'Why can't I just say Di I like you?! I already let one gurl get away from me for not revealing my feelings' he thought. 'Life is just so hard!' They were talking, and Diana brought up something of Brandon's past. Out of nowhere Diana asks Brandon, "Brandon, will you promise me one thing?" "Of course" Brandon replied. "Promise me, that we will always be together forever and be friends til the end." Now this sounded oddly familiar, and then it hit him, Lynette. He began to break down just hearing the same situation being somewhat repeated.
DIANA:
'What was happening?' she thought. I just said some little things about a promise and then he started crying. Then it hit her, Lynette. 'How can I be so stupid?!' This thing happened to him before with Lynn! Diana thought, 'I think I just blew whatever chance I had with him. This just proves that he still likes Lynn.' Diana looked heartbroken, but hid her feelings. "Are you okay? I'm sorry. I forgot about what happened." she tried to explain. "Don't worry. My answer is yes. I will promise you that." he said and then out of instinct I kissed him on the cheeks. "Do you remember how we met?" I asked trying to change the subject. "No, sorry I don't" he said. "You dont?!" I asked shocked. "I still do. Though we were like 6th graders then. I remember you were talking to your friends about Power Rangers, but you were trying to play it off as if you didn't like them. Well I told you that I thought the Power Rangers were cool, and then your friends started to tease me, but then you jumped in and defended me. It was so cute." We talked and talked about our past and how we first met and I don't know when it happened, but we both fell asleep. When I woke up, I was in his arms. I fell asleep in his arms! Life was good. There was nothing that could ruin this moment! Then the phone rang.
BRANDON:
*RING RING* The phone was ringing. I woke up and went to pick up the phone. As I woke up, I saw Di in my arms and her eyes staring at me. I gave her a smile. She is so beautiful, and what was happening with me and her was the exact same thing that happened with me and Lynn. I shook the idea out of my head and picked up the phone. "Hello?" I said half asleep. "Hello?!" said a fairly familiar voice. "Lynn?!" I replied. This made Diana scrunch up her face, but I couldn't see very well. "Hi!" she said. "I miss you so much, and I am coming back to California to see you! Isn't that great?! Well I really have to go now, gotta get my order before someone else takes it! Bye! I LOVE YOU!" Lynn said. This made me freeze. *CLICK* The dial tone sounded. I held the phone to my ear for about a minute before I realized what she had said. 'Did she actually say I love you?' I thought, and then my heart felt all weird. I looked at Diana and I thought about Lynette. Why was my heart acting this way? Who was it twirling for? I liked Diana a lot and I have been liking her for the past year, and now all of a sudden Lynn is returning and my heart does flips? I wanted to tell Diana that I liked her because I didn't want to lose her like I did with Lynette. Now she is coming back! Everything was so perfect with Di, and now Lynn is coming back, complicating things. "Was that Lynn? The girl from your past?" Diana asked kind of hurt. "Yes." I replied. "What did she want?" she asked. "She is coming to visit." I said stupidly.
DIANA:
After hearing that she was coming back, I ran out of the house not knowing where to go. Trying to hold back my tears. Not that far behind was Brandon chasing after me. I rubbed my eyes and he caught up to me. "Where are you going?" he yelled, "DIANA!" "What?!" I said and stopped running and catching my breath. "Why are you running? Why does it bother you that Lynette is coming back anyways?!" He asked me and was trying to catch his breath. "It just does." I said sounding dumb. "You like me or sumthing?" he teased me. 'Oh, how I wanted to say yes and take him in my arms and kiss him right then and there, but i couldn't.' "ME?! Like you? HA! Don't flatter yourself!" I said this kind of hurtful, but I didn't wnt him to know. I was thinking 'Hell yes, I like you,' but the words just never com out. "Come on you have nowhere to go, at least nowhere walking distance. Let's go back to my house." Brandon said. "Okay" I said. I stood there a while and then decided I would tell him that I liked him. "Well I really do like you. I have always liked you. That's why it bothers me when you said that Lynn was coming back--" I said and turned around to find myself alone. He left me alone in the middle of the street. I stomped my way back to his house.
~Two Days Later~
BRANDON:
;;Passengers now arriving Terminal 3 from France...;;
I was waiting for Lynn at the airport. Diana decided to stay at my house. "BRANDON?!" "Lynn?!" "Long time no see! So, how've you been?" I said as I hugged her. "I have been good, but I have missed you so much." she said. It felt weird for her to say that after so long. We reached my car, and she put her things in the trunk. We drove back to my home. "I'm sorry about what happened the last time I saw you." I told her. "Well that's one of the reasons why I came back. About that, I was trying to tell you that I loved you, before you told me to leave, including other things. Then on the phone the other day, I told you that I love you. Well I do, and now I have proved it to you." she explained. "What are you talking about?" I asked. "I left everything at France. My schooling, my parents, all those guys...for you!Because although I left you, I never stopped thinking about you and I knew that leaving you was wrong. I was dumb to leave you, but I had no choice. When I thought back upon it, I shouldn't have listened to my parents, and instead should have followed my heart. So I took the first flight back and want to make things right!" she explained. Her explanation gave me thoughts of Diana. Diana appeared in my mind. Diana, a girl who was really sweet and cared for me, is at my home waiting for me, while I pick things up with an old flame?! I began to feel sick in the stomachm, but it made me realize that Lynn did not mean as much to me as Diana did and it was decided that when I get back home, I would reveal my love for Diana. I was no longer held back from loving someone else because it was obvious now that Lynn wasn't as special to me as Di was. Lynn then asked me a question which caught me off guard. "Do you love me?" "HUH?! What?" I said as I turned my head to look at her. I was not paying attention to the road. When I turned my head back to the road, a glimpse of a car flashed in my view. "BRANDON! LOOK OUT!" Lynette screeched, and I tried to swerve away, but it was too late.
*CRASH*
DIANA:
Where is he? It is night and he hasn't come back yet. That means he's out with Lynette. I knew he couldn't like me. What would he see in me when he has Lynn? Why would he like me? Tears began to stream down her eyes. *RING RING* I picked up the phone and heard a voice, "Hi. Is Mr. or Mrs. Hao there? This is Doctor Wong." Hearing it was a doctor, out of reflex, I replied, "I am Mrs. Hao." "I'm sorry to say, but Brandon Hao is in a coma, and the girl in the passenger side survived with minor injuries. If you would like to visit your son, stop by the Cyanide Health Center. We know that it is hard to hear news like this, so if you need counseling--" I threw the phone down and drove to the hospital. As I arrived, I saw Lynn was waiting in the waiting room with a bandage on her head. "Where can I find Brandon Hao? He was involved in a car accident earlier today." I asked the nurse, but a voice from behind me answered for her. "He is in Room 457 and he is still in a coma. No visitors are allowed to see him yet." said the voice. I glanced over and said, "Lynette?" "That is me." she replied. I didn't like her. I should be here to support Brandon, and she should be back in France. Better yet, Brandon wouldn't be here, if she didn't come back. "Why don't you take a little rest and I'll wait for any news on Brandon." I told her, just to be nice. "Thanks. You are so sweet!" she said as she layed down for a rest.
~5 hours later~
"You can visit him if you'd like. He isn't awake, but you can talk to him. Sometimes people in comas will understand you when you communicate to them during their sleep." the doctor explained. I was about to wake Lynette up, but the doctor told me to let her rest. She didn't have to tell me twice. I walked into Room 457 and saw Brandon hooked up to the tubes with a life resporator hooked up to him. She began to cry the instant she walked in. "Brandon, how can this happen to you? You are suppose to be the strong one remember? You are the one who is suppose to protect me and I feel so vulnerable right now. I am the one who got angry, and now I regret it. You can't leave me! I won't let you! I care too much for you, and I love you. I LOVE YOU! I am sorry that I didn't tell you earlier, but I was scared. Not as scared as I am roite now. You can't leave me now, I LOVE YOU!! Remember our promise? You promised that you would never leave me. I am still here, but you have to be here too!" she started crying and held on to his hand. She looked at the ceiling, "God, I don't ask you for much, I have not been the best church going person, but you can't let him leave me. He has helped me through soo much! He can't go yet! Please give me a sign that he will be alright." I had a sudden feeling as if someone was looking me, glaring at me, burning a hole through my back. I turned around and saw a hurt expression in Lynn's eyes. She turned around and walked away. I began to cry more and a tear dropped off my chin and landed on his hand. I felt his hand twitch. He began to wake up! "DOCTOR! DOCTOR!" I screamed, and I kissed him on the lips and said, "Oh Brandon! You're all right! I love you so much, and i was afraid that I had lost you!" He looked puzzled and shocked and then he asked, "Who are you?"
BRANDON:
~Two Weeks Later~
It was weird, I woke up and found myself in a hospital with a gurl kissing me, and saying that she loved me. I have established that the gurl that loved me was Diana and that I was Brandon, but I didn't know which part the other girl, Lynn, played. It was obvious that Lynn and Di disliked eachother. We were all in my room which felt kind of weird, even though I don't remember anything, the last thing I remember was waking up and feeling something soft on my lips, and seeing Diana right there kissing me, i knew that it was my first kiss, but did I feel the same way she felt about me? Why was I so attracted to that Lynette girl? Everything is soooo confusing! I want to remember everything, but I can't! I looked over at Lynette, and then had some light memories of some children. Did I have kids with her? No. Then it hit me. Lynette was my childhood love! I remembered all of the things we did. It was becoming clear to me. It was her. "I remember now, and I Love you too." I said. They both looked at me. Waiting for the name that would come after those three special words. Each hoping it would be their name. "I Love You too, Lynn"
DIANA:
He picked her. He picked Lynn, after all that we have gone through this past year? I was going to finally admit to him that I loved him when he came back from the airport. I was ready to accept everything, even if that meant rejection, and one incident occurs and now everything is shattered. Lynn looked at Di and gave her one of those, "Haha, I'm better than you are!" look and then walked to Brandon and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Just seeing that made me want to throw up! I stood up. "Is this your decision, Brandon?" "You heard him, he said 'Lynn'." Lynn said gloating. "Shut up, I wasn't talking to you." I said moodily, but tried to hold back my anger. Tears began to form in my eyes. "After all that we have been through, Brandon? For the past year? Don't you remember the late night talks, the fun, the times we shared together?" I couldn't take it and I broke down and cried. "You are my first love, my first kiss, you are my everything! Please...just...remember!" He stood up and left the room.
BRANDON:
I couldn't deal with all those memories all at once. I began to see everything, but bunched together. It was like a 500 piece jigsaw puzzle with only 200 pieces completed. I began to think of everything that happened, my family life, Lynn, Diana, the near suiside, and something finally snapped. Everything was so clear, almost. I opened the door and over heard their conversation. "Shut up you lieing backstabber!" Lynette exclaimed! "What?!" I asked confused and dumbfoundedly. "She told me to go to sleep at the hospital so when the doctor told her it was okay to visit you, she could have you all to herself!" "That is a lie! I was going to wake you up, but the doctor said to let you rest. Did you forget that you had a minor head injury?" Diana explained. "I am regaining my memory back, but I will have to have more time to think about this. Lynn. Diana. If you can give me a little more time to--" I was saying, but then both of them just left! I chased after both of them. They went outside, and went in different directions. I was left in the middle. Whoever I chased after would be the one that I chose. I looked at Lynn and remembered everything I had with her. MY PAST. Then I turned to Diana and remembered everything I had shared with her. She was my first kiss. MY PRESENT. Now I had to choose MY FUTURE. I looked at Lynette and saw the first girl that I liked. I looked at Diana. The second girl I liked and I had to choose who was my first love? I turned to look at Lynette. "This isn't really fair!" I yelled. "It's up to you to choose. Don't forget about our pact?!" Lynette yelled, and then it hit me. All the pieces in the puzzle fit, and it was complete. My decision was made. I smiled at Diana and gave her a wink. Then I ran to Lynette.
Part 3
DIANA:
"He left me for her?!" Diana said to herself as she saw Brandon run to Lynn. She couldn't believe her eyes. She didn't believe what just took place. She looked as Brandon stopped Lynette and saw her jump into his arms. "This is how it ends, everyone just leaves and plays with my feelings. I won't put up with this anymore." I thought and then turned and ran as far and fast as I could. She kept running and running. She ran across streets not caring whether the light was green or whether there was a car or not. All she felt like doing was running. A car was coming heading her way. The driver was too busy talking on his cell phone to notice Diana on the road. It wasn't slowing down. It was getting closer and closer. Diana wiped the tears away from her eyes with the back of her sleeves and looked up. She saw the car coming and froze, not knowing what to do. She wanted to run, but couldn't move. She was frozen with fear and closed her eyes and waited for the car to hit her body. Waiting for the impact of the car. Her eyes were shut tight, waiting.
*HONK*
She heard the horn and sensed that this was it, and then it happened. She felt herself get hit and then landed on a soft surface. She thought it was a cloud. She opened her eyes and saw the clouds were above her, meaning she hit the grass and someone was on top of her. Someone with their arms wrapped around her. She looked at this foreign object that was holding on to her for dear life and saw that it was Brandon!! Right there with her, holding on to her. He was shaking. It felt nice to have him so close, but why was he trembling? He finally decided to look at what happened and looked down at me and then said, "Are we dead? Are you an angel?" And all I could do was smile. It was cute, but then I remembered that he ran to Lynn and chose her. I pushed him away. "Aren't you suppose to be with 'her'?" I asked bitterly holding back a tear. "Why do you think I am here?!" he said with a smile. I looked at him not knowing what he meant, as he explained what happened.
BRANDON'S EXPLANATION:
As I looked at Lynn, she yelled, "Don't forget the pact!" And then it hit me, she broke it. She left, it was her who broke it, and now she was trying to use it against me. That is straight out wrong, so I ran to her to tell her my decision, and my decision was you, Di! "About that pact" I was telling Lynn "You broke it when you left me! You said we'd be together forever and then you left me when I needed you the most, and you come back expecting me to choose my past over my present? Your just wrong and I'm sorry it has to end like this. You love me, but I don't feel the same for you. If this was like 3 or 4 years ago or somewhere near there I would have loved you, but not anymore. You hurt me too much! Did you know that because of you leaving me that I almost took my own life for you? I am still here because guess who? Diana was there for me, and we've been through so much together in the past year then we have in the past decade. To think I almost ended my life because you left me feeling so depressed. You played with my mind and said you loved me, I am not some prize to be awarded to you because after 4 years or so you decided to do the right thing. Well it's 4 years too late for that and you can't change that, and neither you nor I can change the fact that I LOVE DIANA" And then I realized what I just said. I Love Diana! I turned around and saw that you were gone, so I ran after you. Not wanting to lose you, I ran in your direction. I knew my choice was you, and I ran and I ran and then I saw you. You were standing there in front of the the street, and that was when I spotted the car. I ran as fast as I could to catch up to you before the car did. I didn't care if I had to return to the hospital or if I died, but for damn sure I wasn't going to see the another girl leave my life, but this time it was the girl of my dreams, and this time it would have been FOREVER. I ran and ran and then I was right there and the car was so close. I tackled you onto the grass. I was trembling and afraid that I was too late. When I opened my eyes I saw you below me, looking down at you surrounded by the grass, I thought we didnt make it. I didn't know what had happened, and the first thing that I thought was that I was dead, and that was why I asked you, "Are we dead? Are you an angel?" And you just smiled. Once I saw that smile I knew that everything would be all right.
DIANA:
He saved my life. He left Lynn for me, which meant that I was his decision! I began to cry, and I wrapped my arms around him. "I LOVE YOU, BRANDON!" I said through tears. "I LOVE YOU TOO, DIANA!" This time he got the name right! He continued. "I always have! I was just so blind and I didn't trust anyone after what happened to me with Lynette. I couldn't realize my love for you. Remember when you IMed me that one day? Like way back, when we started talking again? Well that day was the day I planned to kill myself, end it all. I had no reason to live, and if you hadn't of IMed me, I probably would have been dead. I never thanked you and you were always there for me no matter what. I should have told you a lot earlier, but I was scared. Scared of rejection and I am grateful for being alive. I am so happy that I found you! I never thought that I would ever find love after what happened to me. I never thought I could trust anyone again, and if I never would have found you I wouldn't have found love in the first place. So, yes I LOVE YOU, and you mean the world to me. Lynn was my past, you are my present, and now my future. Not to forget that we have that little promise to eachother." Brandon explained. I smiled at him and was crying, tears of happiness. Then I kissed him.
"I LOVE YOU TOO, but you did leave me though, when you ran to Lynn. You scared me and I thought you chose her over me," I said still with tears in my eyes.
"I'd never leave you for her or anyone else. I am really sorry. I had to tell her that she broke the pact. I gave you a smile and a wink, but I guess that wasn't clear enough. Besides Di, you never have anything to worry about, I could be gone for years and you wouldn't have to worry because..."
"I WILL ALWAYS RETURN TO YOU!"
[The End]
