SAY WHAT NOW?
Derek’s Perspective
I drive up to my house and open up the front door quietly just in case Jess was taking a nap. She was not, I repeat, not taking a nap.
I walk in to find my girlfriend, the one that detto she knew the best for me and would never cheat on me, was sitting there successivo to Landon. My best friend! She kept on trying to get closer to him, but good ol’ Landon kept pushing her away. “Come on!!” she was whining, “You know te wanna snuggle!”
“No. I absolutely don’t want to ‘snuggle’,” he replied, I could see horror on his face as he kept backing away until he fell onto the floor.
“HA! I’ve got te now!” She yelled out, smug with victory. Just at that moment I decided to make myself visible.
“HEY!” I yell out before she could do anything that would scare my best friend away from me forever.
“Dude… It’s NOT what it looks like-” Landon starts.
“I know. I’ve been standing here for a few minuti now,” I reply, looking Jesse right in the eye, which quickly flitted away to avoid eye contact. “Jess,” I say slowly, still in shock, “explanations?”
“Wellll…” she started, “He detto that he wanted to get to together and not tell you!”
“No way! Dude, believe me, te know I wouldn’t do that,” Landon retorts.
“Likely story, Jesse…” I say sarcastically, “Listen, now that I know that you’re so likely to just run off from me, we’re…. done. Over with. So get the heck out of my house.”
“But I Amore you! We were supposed to be together forever!!”
“That’s what I thought at first, too. Not so much now. Get OUT of my house. NOW.”
“Fine, just let me do one thing before I leave…” she said, with a mischievous look in her eyes. She leaned down and whispered something in Landon’s ear… Something that I couldn’t hear.
Landon looked positively terrified as she backed away slowly, with a small smile on her face until she was out the door.
“What did she say?” I ask Landon.
“Text me…”

but now its over
and i am not going back
had my cuore broken
had my dreams blown away
it only took te a second
to rearrange my whole day
I use to know you
but now its over
and i see that now
te blew me away
far from here
and i couldnt make it back
but i bet te knew that
I use to know
someone like you
he was friendly
but i left him behind
in the rain
in the cold
where i couldnt see him
i hope you're different
it would help
if te werent exactly like him
nice to know you
but i must go
and protect my soul
how nice of te to stop by
but please go home now
I use to know you
but now im long gone
and it feels great'
to leave that burden behind
i wont see te again
i wont be there when te fall
just know that i
wont pick te up again
