Fall From Love
“~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow HOLLY Carter sets a big bowl of macaroni down in front of me and I can’t help feeling like a kid again. I can’t remember the last time I ate macaroni out of a box.
He sits back in the chair he’s been sitting in all day. It’s crazy to me that we’ve actually been in the kitchen talking since breakfast. Today is about as close as you can get to perfect and I can’t help wishing it would never end. I know that he’s going home tomorrow and it’ll be over a week until we ...see each other again. My heart aches just thinking about it.
Without even thinking, a few truthful words slip from my mouth. “I lied to you earlier.”
He doesn’t say anything at first and I’m too scared to glance up to see his reaction or questioning expression. The room is so quiet that I can actually hear him swallow his mouthful. He clears his throat and asks, “What about?”
Forcing my eyes up, I see him staring down into his bowl, refusing to meet my gaze. Deep down, I’m pretty sure he knows exactly what I’m talking about.MoreLess
