One Last Breath-ten;
I felt like I had been gaining some weight. I
hadn't taken my morning runs in a while. I put on my running
shorts and an old T-shirt and just ran. I ran until it hurt. My
stomach hurt and my legs were sore. I ran at least three miles.
When I got back home, I took a long shower. Something needed to be
done to get my mind off of Eric. I dried my hair, laced up my
cleats, and went to the soccer field. Surprisingly, when I saw Pat
there, I wasn't excited. I ran up to him, and he just stared at
me.
"What's wrong?"
I was completely shocked that he could tell that something was
upsetting me.
"Eric. He won't take me back. It's like he doesn't
even care," my voice was wobbly, again, because even thinking
about him made my heart break.
"What an idiot. How could he not want you?"
He hugged me, like a friend would, and let go quickly.
"Thanks. I hope he breaks up with that Ryleigh girl."
"I hope he doesn't."
"Why?"
"Then I couldn't have you."
I smiled. I was so drowned in my own emotions. There's the hot,
caring guy, who shared my passion of soccer, and the cute, caring
guy, who wanted the best for me. My decisions usually weren't
the best, and I guessed that this one wouldn't be either. I was
going to have fun with this.
"Who said I can't have you both?"
He smiled, hoping I wasn't serious. He didn't want anyone
cheating on him, either. For the rest of the time, we didn't do
anything but stare in each other's eyes and smile like
idiots.
"It's getting late. Want to sleep over?"
"I'm pretty sure my parents would kill me if they
found out I was sleeping over at a guy's house."
"Oh. Well, there was something I wanted to ask you."
"Ask away," I rushed him.
"Okay, well, I want you to go out with me. I know you and Eric
still have a thing, but I just really like you and I can't help
but smile when I'm arou-"
"Yes," I cut him off.
"What?"
"Yes, I'll go out with you."
He smiled and kissed my forehead. The next think I new, I was at
home, and I was happy.
