This is a story of a girl..

The scene opens in a public high school as everyone is walking in the hallways looking completely bored and lifeless everyone looks the same,aside from a boy with dirty blonde hair making out with a girl with light green eyes. The lockers slam and the boy kisses the girl hard as she loosens her grip on his hand and they disperse to their classrooms across the halls looking back once more at the same time before entering their rooms.

Cut to the girl listening to a plump lady talk about literature as she doodles on a sheet of notebook paper asking herself how she got so lucky and crumpling up another image of a girl with a messenger bag she found not properly shaded. Cut to the boy in a classroom in the very back texting "i love you" quickly on his phone before laying his head down to nap. Cut to the girl smiling to herself as she thinks about how much he really loves her. Cut to the boy passing notes with the girl across the room as he looks at the clock, quickly writes "tonight at 8" with a smirk, and gathers his things.

The bell rings and she's waiting at a locker; she embraces him and he kisses her neck and says she's everything to him. She smiles brightly and walks him to his bus. They share another kiss and the girls swimming inside her own head wishing she could keep that moment and go back to it every time things shatter.

Cut to her house as she's pacing back and forth waiting for him to call to hear the voice she loves to listen to. It's eleven and she's crying softly now and she lets her fears and worries discharge into her pillow as sleep embraces her. Cut to him pressing his hips into the girl with porcelain skin and hair the color of night as he whispers she's everything to him.

She's shaking as she walks into the halls looking for any sign of the boy she loves; she digs in her locker and finds an old paper with a faded drawing. She sees him and quickly crumples the paper and shoves it deep in her pocket; trying her best to remain calm and keep from running up to him and holding him tight- she smiles and says good morning as he looks around the hallway in disinterest. The girl kisses his cheek and walks slowly to class as the boy loiters in the halls. She looks back to see the one who captivated her but now only sees one of them.

Cut to the girl in the bathroom crying and pulling her hair asking herself why she's here as she hears a crumpling in her pocket; she reaches in to pull out a picture of that girl, but something in her eyes is familiar. She recognizes that look.. she creeps out of the stall to look in the mirror as she gazes at the exact same image of the broken girl on the lined paper and she fades .......

    Hey I just wanted to let you know Im sorry! something similar happened to me, I loved this guy, and he did something really horriable to me and well thats that. well I still love him so much we dated for 2 1/2 years and he just left me like 2 weeks ago, and everyone keeps telling me that time heals everything and well there right, time does. but the thing that hurts the most is that he has a poems and quotes page that he hasnt been to in a while but it still says something about us on it.......
