I tossed the pen in my hand down on my notebook and pushed away from my desk. Homework could wait a little longer. I threw myself onto my simple, white bed and let out a deep sigh; I gave in and closed my eyes knowing there was only one thing I was going to see when I did, Avery’s beautiful face.Last night still felt like a dream, as if I had been Cinderella at a ball. However, in the light of the day after, nothing felt the same. Nothing looked the same.Nothing was the same.Between performing, cutting loose with my best friend, and meeting an amazing guy, I never wanted last night to end.The night came to a crashing finish when he uttered those words about leaving. The constricting feeling in my chest snuck up on me every single time I thought about it. I liked him a lot, but to feel so undone about him leaving, just didn’t make sense. I’d rather think about the way his voice sounded while he sang to me, the way his hand found mine every chance he got, and especially about the way he kissed me.I could feel my whole body start to blush as I remembered the way his fingers slowly slid up my neck and into my hair.
