True Love - Mackenzie Feit (ebook reader with highlighter TXT) 📗

can we talk?"

"Sure what about?"

"Can um we talk in person?"

"Ashton what's up?"

"I just need to tell you something really important, and I can't tell you in a text message"

"Ok fine"

"Great, meet me at the park next to school"

"K, b there in 10"

"k"

Great what does he want now, to tell me more lies?

 

 

10 minutes later in the park

 

"Thanks for meeting me here Em...Emma"

"Whatever, what do you want Ashton?"

"I want to tell you whatever you want to know, wether I like it or not..."

I looked at him remembering the promise he had made a year ago

"O sure now you want to..."

"I always wanted to I just... didn't know how"

"I'm sure..."

"So what do you want to know?"

"Hmm why is Ally acting so strange around me all of a sudden?"

"Because she knows my secret and I asked her not to tell you"

"What's your secret and why can't I know it?"

"You couldn't know it because it was about you, as for what it is... I'll show you"

He walked closer to me

"Wha...what are you doing?"

"Shhh just watch"

He moved even closer to me until our noses just about touched, then he turned his head to the left and kissed me

"..."

I couldn't move I was paralyzed with shock I couldn't believe he was doing this

What is he thinking, why is he still kissing me I haven't even respoded to him, he still hasn't told me his secret...Please stop kissing me, please stop kissing me, please stop kissing me

He finally stops after like an eternity

"I'm in love with you, Emma Ivy Thompson, and I have been for over a year"

"..."

I am still paralyzed with the shock of having him kiss me, and now I'm even more paralyzed with the realization of reality

"Please say something, please anything, just please don't hate me"

"Ok"

"Ok? Ok what?"

"Ok I won't hate you"

"So we're still friends?"

"Of course"

"Really?"

"No not really, are you out of your fucking mind, waiting to tell me this cruicial detail for a whole fucking year, and you could have told me this before I said yes to Caleb, you asshole, you have been there for me when I lost everything, you were there when I needed you, Ashton Jacob White how dare you break your promise and then tell me your big secret after an entire year of me being in pain, because I loved you and I thought you didn't love me back but now you tell me after I've moved on, no that's actually not true... I haven't moved on I, Emma Ivy Thompson, have been in love with you, Ashton Jacob White, for years, and you have broken my heart and fixed it a billion times and now you have broken my heart again!!!! I promise you, Ashton Jacob White, I promise I won't hate you, I can't, but until you can stop the lying and secret keeping, I just can't be with you, I don't want to see you, unless we are at school but even then I will not speak to you until you can prove to me you really love me and then I will think about it but since you can't be there when I need you, I can't trust you anymore, I gave you 3 chances Ashton White and you blew them all!!! just tell me one thing, who else knew?"

I could feel all the emotions going through me, anger, sadness, betral, and I could feel my heart breaking I had to look away, I didn't want him to see me cry

"Please don't do this Em, please I can't live without you, Emma please, and Ally" He pleaded

"Unbelievable I can't do this anymore, my 2 best friends"

"I can't go without you, your my other half, I need you Emma please"

I could hear his voice crack, he was crying?

"No Ashton, I am getting rid of everything of yours that you gave me, it will me in your locker tomorrow morning"

I felt him grab my arm

"Please Ashton, don't make this harder than it needs to be"

I tried to walk away and out of his grasp but he wouldn't let go, instead he pulled me closer to him, turned me around and hugged me

"Ashton..."

"Just let me have this one moment with you, this last moment"

"Ok" I said and then I hugged him back because I will miss him, I mean he was one of my closest friends and I really didn't want to let him go

I could feel the warmth of his body seeping into my clothes, I needed to let him go, but before I could pull away he kissed me again, but this time I responded, it was his turn to be surprised

"hehe, like I said I love you" I said and then I pulled his head down to meet my lips again, his lips taste so good

 

(Aston's POV)

 

Well I told her, she yelled at me, made me cry, then she hugged me which turned into a passionate kiss, I was surprised she responded, she didn't respond the first time...She said she loves me, but she's going to leave me, Her lips taste so good, hey body fits perfectly against mine, I am still in love with her, I'm not going to say anything because I might wake up from this wonderful dream if I do, I finally got my body to respond to her and I kissed her back, but then the moment got even better because out of nowhere  our song came on, it was the song that was playing when we first met.

That's so strange, I bet she's thinking the same thing

"May I have this dance" I said bowing

"It would make me the happiest woman in the world" She said giggling

I took her to the middle of the park and started moving with the beat

My Wish- Rascal Flatts

I hope that days

come easy and the

moments pass slow

 

And each road

leads you where 

you want to go

 

And if you're faced 

with a choice, and 

you have to choose

 

I hope you choose 

the one that means 

the most to you

 

And if one door 

opens to another

door closed

 

I hope you keep

on walkin' till you

find the window

 

If it's cold outside,

show the world the

warmth of your smile

 

But more then

anything, more

then anything

 

My wish, for you, is

that this life becomes

all that you want it

 

To your dreams

stay big, your

worries stay small

 

You never need 

to carry more

then you can hold

 

And while you're out

there getting where

you're getting to

 

I hope you know

somebody loves you,

and wants the same

things too

 

Yeah, this, is

my wish

"Emma"

"Yes Ashton"

"Do you remember this song?"

"Of course I do, I would never forget the song that was playing when we met at that get together"

"haha yeah our parents little get together in your back yard... best day ever!"

"Yeah you had on the cutest little tuxedo, you looked so handsome"

"You thought I looked handsome? I thought you looked so beatiful in your pink dress"

"Really?!? I thought I looked like a small dork"

"Maybe but you were my small dork" He said with a smile

"Hey" I laughed and hit him

"Ow, haha" He faked being hurt

He knows I can't actually hurt him... physically I mean

I will miss this... how we can have a conversation so easily... how he can make me smile even when I'm sad or mad... I will miss him... his big brown eyes, thick brown hair, how I have to look up to him when I speak to him... I don't think I will ever be able to have this with Caleb, or any other guy... No one will ever be able to replace my love for Aston Jacob White, the one and only. He trys to sing but he has no idea how to use his vocal cords which make him even cuter... I could go on and on and on about all the perfect qualities about him, like the way his face lights up when he sees me coming or the way he hugs me when I need one, how my body fits perfectly into his as if it was made just for him. Stop thinking about him Emma, you have to be able to forget him and move on to Caleb... You remember your boyfriend of 6 months

But then he started singing 

"I hope you never

look back, but

ya never forget

 

All the ones who

love you, in the

place you left"

 It brought tears to my eyes

"I hope you always

forgive, and you

never regret,

 

And you help

somebody every

chance you get" He wiped the tear that had fallen with his thumb 

I was so happy he knew our song, I started singing with him

 

"Oh, you find

God's grace, in

every mistake

 

And you always give more then

you take"

 

We danced to the rest of the song and it reminded me of all the good times I shared with my once full family

 

But more then

anything, Yeah, 

more then anything

 

My wish, for you, is

that this life becomes

all that you want it

 

To your dreams

stay big, your

worries stay small

 

You never need

to carry more 

then you can hold

 

And while you're out

getting where 

you're getting to

 

I hope you know 

somebody loves you,

and wants the same

things too

 

Yeah, this, is 

my wish

 

My wish, for you, is

that this life becomes

This is my wish

 

Once the song ended I realized that I was with Caleb now and that I was supposed to be mad at Ashton for breaking his promise and lying to me for almost two whole years! I can't just get over that this easily

I moved away from his warm embrace, this time he didn't try to pull me back which I was kind of sad about

"Is there anything else you wanted me here for, in person, that you couldn't possibly tell me over text message?" I said hoping there was something else 

"Yes actually" 

My face lit up in happiness at the fact I didn't have to leave yet

He pulled out a big box from behind the bushes

"What is that Ashton?"

"Open it and find out" He said with a smile

"Ok"

I had to try holding back my tears

"Oh Ashton"

"D..do you like them?"

"Of course I don't like them, I love them Ash" I said and gave him a big hug

"I have one more thing for you"

"Ash I don't need anything else"

"Just one more thing"

"Ok"

He pulled out a rectangular black box

"Oh Ash, this looks really expensive"

"Em it's not that expensive" His voice went up an octave and he rubbed the back of his neck, indicating he was lying but I let it slide this time

"Ok"

He handed me the box

"What is it?"

"Open it and see"

 I opened it and almost fell on my knees with awe

"Ash, I can't take this"

"Yes you can"

"Fine I won't take it"

"Don't you like it?"

"I love it but it looks like it cost a fortune"

"Yeah and?"

"That's all of your money Ash"

"Emma just take it and be happy"

"Fine, I'll take it but you can't stop me from repaying you for this"

"If you say you'll talk to me at school and hang out with me again after today... You have repayed me already"

"Ashton I... I just can't"

"Please, I'm begging you be my best friend again, please Emma"

"I love you Ashton, but you've spent to much on me and I just can't do such a simple thing and nothing else"

"I love you and I don't know how else I'm supposed to show that to you"

"Please Ashton, please please please don't do this now"

"But I need to tell you this before you give your present to Caleb"

"What does Caleb have to do with this?"

"I heard some people talking about your relationship with Caleb and they said that it was just another bet that he made and if he lasted 6 months he would get a total of 2,000 dollars"

"And do you have proof of this...conversation?"

"Yes your trust of me"

"My trust of you is a little faulty at the moment but if you honestly believe this tomorrow at the football game I will talk to Caleb and ask him, so if that makes you feel better..."

"It really does, I have a question"

"What?"

"Can you close your eyes for me?"

"Why, are you going
