The leaves ruffled around us as the wind picked up, along with the tension. He flashed a tiny smile with saddened eyes, and I knew this was going to be hard. My swelling heart was making it difficult for me to breathe; the thudding sound hurt my ears. My lower lip jutted out, trying to keep in my tears. I couldn't believe this was happening to us, are my ears hearing this conversation right? I silently prayed to God that this wasn't happening, I needed Jay now, how was I supposed to do this by myself?
"Please, don't do this Jay," My voice cracked, giving away my true feelings, despite my pokerface expression. I closed my eyes tightly so I couldn't see the smile fall from his perfect face. I didn't want to look at him, because I didn't want to see the sympathy in his eyes.
"Annie, I can't do it anymore, we both know that this isn't working... we just need to take a little break." Little break my ass. He frowned as water trickled down my now wet cheeks. I ran my hands over my face as Jay hesitated and took a step towards me. I bit my lip, not letting the sob that had risen up my throat come out. I thought everything was going great, I don't understand why he wants this. I wanted to ask him for the real reason, but I fear that if I opened my mouth, everything will come out.
"Look, I know this isn't easy, but we'll be alright." He stated with courage, that was something I have always admired him for. He gave me one last look before walking down the long pathway, and out of my life. I stood stiff frozen for a good five minutes before the pain blew up in my face, sending me into hysterics. I made my way clumsily back to the door, grasping the knob tightly until my knuckles turned a deadly shade of white. I finally found the strength to open it and make my way inside.
As I stood in the door way, I found myself absentmindedly rubbing my stomach as I mummered quietly, "We'll be alright little one, we will be alright." I made my way to the cheap red couch, and fell lazily on it, almost instantly falling into a deep sleep.
So what do you think? :] (Sorry its so short, this is kind of like a preview haha)
