A reason to live
Josh's POV------------------------------------
I feel sorry for my friends, I left them, I just ran away, scared for myself. Even after I...I...
-Flashback-
Me and Jackie had just moved in together, and after years for waiting, we were finally here. I had just finished unpacking the last box, I sat down and let off a sigh of relief, we had finally done it. Jackie came in and sat down next to me. "Finally! We're done"
"All those years of waiting for the right moment paid off a?" I asked her.
"Yeah, yeah they did. To think it's been that long" She rested her head on my shoulder.
"Yeah, you would never have thought it was" I've known Jackie since I was about 15, we started a relationship online, we'd been waiting little over 7 or 6 years for the moment we could finally just be together.
"Josh?" She said quietly.
"Yeah, what's up?" She moved her head off my shoulder and I looked at her.
"Promise me something?" She looked at me.
"Yeah, of course"
"Promise me, you won't ever leave" She seemed worried that I'd say something stupid. Then again, she does have a point if she does think I will.
"Why would I ever? Of course I'll stay, I'll never even think about it" I leaned over and kissed her on the cheek.
She warped her arms around me "Thank you" she rested her head on my shoulder again. "You big mug"
"Oi, says the one that owns like 90% of the stuff in this house, how much crap does one girl need?" I laughed.
"Never question a ladies methods" She giggled.
"Yeah well, you're no normal lady so"
"Well then I'm more of a man than you" Oh dam, she crossed the line now.
"Oh really? Who's the one that had to take in all the "Mans" stuff then? And did all the MANLY work?"
"Shut up" She laughed.
"Make me" I smiled at her.
She sat up again "OK" she pressed her lips against mine.
-Flashback ends-
That moment still haunts me till this day, what kind of boyfriend doesn't keep a promise like that? I was an idiot. It was always like she said: I need to grow up. Instead of running away from time and trying to be a kid forever. I was just a kid, they all said it. I was just stupid.
