~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I’ve seen fire and I’ve seen rain
I’ve seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I’ve seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I’d see you again…

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


She was absolutely perfect.

Her green eyes seemed to light up her entire face, and the way she smiled always made them dance with the excitement and happiness that she’d lived her entire life with.

Her lips, so full and pink, spread into that smile that always sent shivers down his spine and butterflies rampaging in his stomach.

Long, amber colored hair that ran just below her shoulders, falling behind her ears as if there were a magnet holding it there.

Wispy bangs that waved over her forehead that, sometimes when it was too windy, would get in her eyes, causing her to push them away with the back of her hand. It had been an involuntary motion for her – she didn’t even have to pause in the middle of a sentence…a fluid movement even if she was in the middle of doing something else.

Everything about her was perfect, the exact model he always compared every other woman to. Nobody could even come close to her beauty, and the most amazing part of it all was that the person she was inside made her one hundred times more beautiful.

He remembered everything about her; the certain way she would say his name, the way she always jingled her keys before unlocking the door, the way she drank her coffee with three drops of cream and two sugars. Even her little routines - for when she went to bed, when she got up in the morning, the songs she listened to depending on her mood, and the same way her eyelids would flutter when he would kiss her.

So many memories came back to Brian when he thought of her. Every time he looked at the picture he had the same reaction and he wondered, now, if it would continue like that. He almost wanted to put it away and only look at it when he absolutely needed to, not wanting to ruin it; now that it was the last reminder of her that he had. That thought alone brought the tears he’d been fighting so hard to hold back flooding to the surface, and he lowered his head as the familiar feeling of near-panic crept through his body. He tried to hold his sobs back the best he could, but it wasn’t much use. For the past day and a half he’d tried to ignore his feelings, only they were too strong to push down any longer.

As his body shook with a passion he hadn’t known he had, Brian felt like he was completely losing control, no longer caring about anything except that she was gone for good. Not just out of his life like she had been for the past four years. No, now she was completely gone - gone forever.

He’d never be able to talk to her or even think about her in the same way. All of the hopeful thoughts he’d had that they would somehow end up back together were stolen from him so quickly, and it just wasn’t fair.
