79.// "The greatest thing, is you."

    Preferably read 94 before reading this one, however it is not necessary.

      Things in life are never quite fair. It's been five years since the death of my best friend Max. You think by now I'd be over it? Well, if so, you're wrong. Completely.

      Max meant the world to me. Eventually I developed a crush on him that I was too afraid to talk to him about. I knew for a fact he wasn't gay, so what was the point? And even now after his death? I have no idea how to move on.

      Max.. was my everything. He still is!

      And he's been gone for five years now.

      So why can't I get over it? Why must I be like this? Why do I think like this? There are so many questions that go unanswered in life and those are just some that will probably never be answered. At least, never with a right answer.

      Max's brother and I have gotten closer over the years. I thought his family would be disgusted by me and blame me for his death just as I did myself. However, they didn't. It makes me happy but sad at the same time. I feel as if his brother is already over his death and here I am.. I didn't even know the boy for that long, let alone my whole life, and his sibling is already over it?

      God, I really am crazy, aren't I?

      There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about his passing. Whenever I'm alone or not doing much it just pops up in my mind and it sucks. A lot.

      People really don't understand why I blame myself for him dying. Isn't it obvious? I was the driver and I drove right into a tree when I was looking at my phone. I still wish that it was me who died rather than Max. Max didn't deserve it. He had a whole life ahead of him, with the hopes of becoming a doctor! What do I have to look forward to? Nothing compared to what he did. So why, please answer this, why wasn't it me?

      I was the driver! I was the one who wasn't paying attention!

      He even tried to warn me but I was too late to even notice. I was such an idiot, wasn't I? Gosh darn it, I still am! He didn't deserve what happened to him one bit.

      His brother tells me everyday that it's alright and he's in a better place now. I appreciate him trying to calm me down in a way, but it didn't help me at all. I wish he could stop trying to help me there and just be my friend. I wish I could forget about everything that happened. I wish that I could go back in time and not look at that stupid text message! I wish that we didn't even agree to go to that stupid party.

      Most importantly, I wish he was still here with me, by my side. Like we promised.

      I smiled brightly at him, out of breath. "Haha, nice game!" I called out, running over to him to give him a high-five. He also seemed a bit tired, so I just suggested we take a rest.

      "Hey.." Max said out of nowhere, which made me look over at him. "I know we're best friends and all.. and, uh.. can you promise me something?"

      All I did was nod my head. Promises are easy to keep, right? "What's up?"

      "Promise to.. always be by my side unlike my dad?" I frowned at him. His dad wasn't a good person at all. He left the boy's family when he was only the age of three. His mother struggled keeping up with three children, but somehow, the amazing woman never failed.

      "Of course, Max. I promise."


      That promise was not easy to keep and I feel awful for it. Even if we were both twelve back then, and he forgot about the promise most likely, it still meant a lot to me.

      And I just broke it.

      The greatest thing, is you Max. I miss you dearly, best friend.. I'm sorry.

49.// "I just wanted you..."

Postby lucas. » Wed Jan 18, 2017 4:35 pm

    Image
      "I just wanted you.." My voice was uneven as I spoke, my fingers and legs shaking uncontrollably. I wasn't even talking to anyone, just myself in my own room. I was too afraid to actually talk to her, there's no way. "I just wanted you for myself, but you chose him instead!" I punched the wall that was right in front of me, blood starting to drip down from my fingers. I looked up, my vision somewhat blurred from tears that began to escape unwillingly from my eyes. There was certainly a hole in the wall which made me gasp and jump backwards.

      I suddenly heard a door creak open behind me, causing me to whip my head towards the sound. It took me a few moments to notice who it was as the figure walked towards me. It was my dad. I smiled sadly at him and he had his arms crossed and seemed mad. He probably heard what happened and wasn't too happy about it. "Y-Yes, father? What's the matter?"

      "The matter is that my son is crying." He said, leaning down to my height, as if I was a child. It somewhat shocked me that he was being pretty kind to me. Normally my dad was a pretty rude person and avoided me at all costs. It was always my mom to come and help me with my situations. Speaking of that, where was she right now? "Now why don't you tell me why you just punched that wall." He poked his head towards the hole and I couldn't help but express a soft chuckle.

      "It's really nothing, Dad," I blew off the topic and decided to go into the bathroom where he followed me. I rolled my eyes and began to clean my hands off since they were still all bloody. "Just this girl.. I really like her but she never seems to notice every time I flirt with her," I shrugged my shoulders, "she just thinks I'm being nice. Which.. I am trying to be, I guess but.. you know. Nothing too big."

      "Nothing too big?!" He raised his voice which made me jump back in fear. He just sighed, "this is something your mom and I went through. She never, ahh, noticed I liked her. I was madly in love with her for who knows how long before we even started to talk. Crazy? I know. She didn't like me until we started talking.. and now look where I am. Maybe if you tell her.."

      I decided to cut him off and end this right here, "look! She has a boyfriend, okay? I'm sorry, but you're being no help here, Dad. I'm not going to tell her. Now can you please leave? I should probably fix up my hand."

      "This is what I get for trying to help you out? Ridiculous." He muttered and made his way completely out of my room. I slumped back against the wall of my bathroom and rocked back and forth, hugging my knees to my chest, crying silently.

      "I just wanted you, Kristi. You! Is that too much to ask for?!" I called out, meekly. The answer was quite obvious yet I still thought I needed to ask myself. Of course it was too much to ask for if she clearly doesn't like me.

      I hope you'll give me a chance one day..
    // really short but.. i hope it's still acceptable. the next one will be at least 1,000 words hopefully. //

95.// "She's gone."

Postby lucas. » Wed Feb 01, 2017 6:01 pm

    Image
      "She's gone, she's gone, she's gone.." Amelia murmured to herself whilst pacing around the room in dizzy circles. The look on her face seemed to have everyone worried, especially the strange way she has been acting recently. "She's gone!" The girl shouted before falling to the floor, which made a noise and looked like it hurt a lot, in sobs. She covered her face as her one friend, Riley, went to go care for her.

      I made my way over to Kyle, someone who worked along with us. I wasn't very close to him, but I had to know what was going on. "What's up with Amelia? She's in hysterics over there.." I muttered to the guy, which caused him to face me with a small frown on his face. All he did was shrug, not bothering to even talk to me before he looked back to the girl who was crying into her friend.

      "Fine," I huffed, clearly upset and trudged over to Riley. I needed to know what was going on. Maybe if I knew, I could help them. However if nobody tells me, I can't exactly do anything. I hated seeing others sad, even if we're complete strangers. "Riley, is she okay?" I asked as kindly as I could.

      "Does she look okay to you?" She snapped back at me with an eye roll. I crossed my arms angrily, clearly everyone today was just in a crappy mood. Or perhaps they just don't like me. She calmed herself down before talking again, "she's been crying for three days, Clark. Her mother is gone. She isn't anywhere in sight. We've called the police to help but they haven't found anything about her mum yet."

      "Oh," was all that I could say at the time. What else did I have to say? If I said sorry, it's seriously no use. Sorry is just a word and it doesn't magically bring my co-worker's mother back. It didn't make her stop crying or make her feel better in any way. It didn't change anything about how gloomy the office was today.

      Sorry is just a useless word that, in reality, does nothing.

      Amelia escaped from Riley's grip and pushed her long blonde hair behind her ear. She stopped crying now, but her makeup was running down her face and her eyes were red and puffy. "Help me.." The girl spoke meekly, "Please help me find my mother."

      "We'll find your mother." I smiled at her, knowing that I was going off to look for her. I had to. I didn't care if we were practically strangers. Her mother was lost and I needed to find her.

      "Really?" Her face seemed to brighten up and I nodded down at her. She lunged at me with a hug and whispered a "thank you" into my ear before letting me go. The act couldn't help but bring a bigger smile to my face. She's a really sweet girl and she needs to be reunited with her mother.

      However, what if I find her mother dead? Then what will happen?

      No, Clark. Do not think that way. She's alive. She has to be.

      "Riley?" I uttered towards the female and she perked her head up, looking at me questioningly. "You should come with me. And so should you, Amelia. It's your mother after all and you're her best friend, Riley. So we should go search together. We'll have a better chance of finding her faster."

      They both nodded and agreed to coming along with me. This may take a while, but hopefully in the end, it'll be worth it.
