Days of the future by Megan Adams (e reader comics .txt) 📕

door creak open and heard the sound of clothes falling tot eh floor. I turned and sawe Dylan standing there looking at me with a smile on his face. Trying to hind my sorrow, I smiled back and said " Hey." He looked at me for a moment and tilted his head to the side. "What's wrong?" he asked me. I shook my head and looked away from him. I didnt want tot tell him cause sayoing it out loud would make the whole thing all the more real. "Jezz, come one.. Please tell me what is going that has made you so sad..."  I swallowed and tried to formulate a explanation...I tried to think of a lame excuse oif feeling sad inside... I looked up at him smiled alittle. "Its nothing really Dylan.. Its just stupid stuff..." In reality, it wasnt  stupid stuff. It was Life changing...

*~*~*

He gave me a look tha  said that he didnt believe me one  bit. I gave him a small smile, hoping it would fool him into dropping the subject but,still he pressed on. "Jezz.. babe please tell me what's wrong..." he trailed off for a moment. "Is it something bad?" i shook my head. "Good?" i nod. "Okay.. let's see here. something good...." he stands there and starts to think.. "I got accepted to the college of my dream and its in New York and i didnt want to tell you because i dont wanna leave you but at the same time i want to go to this school." I blutrted out, tired of holding it in and waiting foor him to guess it. He looked at me and smiled sadly. "How is that a bad thing? You want to go to your favorite collage and I understand that."  I looked at him adn sighed. "Why are you being so happy and not begging me not to go to the collage of my dreams instead stay with you forever and never leave. Go to a different collage..... Anything!!"   "Because i love you Jezz and I want you to be happy."  I coveered my face with my hands and shuddered,trying to keep the tears from falling. "But...."  He crossed the space between us in a matter of seconds and wrapped his arms around me. "Jezz... please dont do this. I want you to go and follow your dream. For me... Please follow your dream for me." I pushed him away and leaned against the wall, sliding down till i hit the floor,crying. I screamed "Why are you trying to get me to leave you?" Tears streaming down my face i stared at him,waiting for an answer. He ran his hands through is hair, frustated. "Go to the college Jezz. Don't miss out on this chance to be smarter.Don't worry about me. I'll find a college close to you or something." My lip trembled. "But Dylan..." He sqatted before me and kissed me. "Don't worry about me. I'll find you again." I leaned against him as i cried. Inside I was happy and alittle worried. 'Why am I excited about gong to college and leaving Dylan here? I should be sad.'

*~*~*

'why am i being so calm about this?'I have asked myself this question a million times and I still don't know. I look at the velvet box on my desk infront of me and wonder in my head why I wont just beg her to stay with me and not go to the college she wants. It's because your scared she will  move on from you, my concience whispered to me. No! i said to myself. That is not the reason why. You know that is the reason why.. your just too scared to admit it...  I ran my fingers theough my hair and banged on the desk. I know her... She wouldnt forget about me. Not her... I gazed at the last velvet box that sat hidden on my desk. It was a 4 caret diamond ring... I grabbed a piece of paper and started writing.

 

Jezzable Marie Lucas, I love you like the world will end tomorrow.

Will you do me the honor of being mine and forever?

 

I closed the box and put in her bag. Grabbing my laptop I leaned agaisnt my bedframeand watched her sleep. I looked up the school websie and started registering.

 

Chapter 9

I grabbed the last of my stuff and placed it in my car. I slammed my trunck shut and glanced at my parents and walked towards them, saying goodbye for the last time. I promised myself that I wasnt going to cry, but when I hugged my mom, tears were sliding down my face. I looked at my dad and cried harder. "Im going to miss you guys so much..." Secretly my heart was aching because Dylan was't here to see me off.. "We'll miss you too baby girl, call us when you made it safely there." I smiled. "I promise I will." I looked down the street one ore time to see if a silver Honda Civic would drive by and stop.Nothing. I backed away from my parents and headed towards my car. I turned back one lat time and waved at my parents. I got into my car and headed for a new life.

~*~*~

After a few days of driving, I finally made it to New York. I drove straight to my arpartment building and started to unload my stuff. I was pulling the last of it out when I heard a voice say " That's alot of boxes for just one girl." I bumped my head and cursed silently. I stood up and looked atthe peron who talked."What would-" I trailed off as I lookde at him. Piercing green eyes,and a nice built figure. I scolded myself. 'What about Dylan?' But Dylan wasn't here."Yea... It is alot of boxes..." I smiled and chuckled alittle bit. He offered his hand. "The name is Tyler." I smiled and shook his hand. "My name is Jezz." I let go of his hand and looked down. "You need some help with your boxes?" he asked. I nodded and bent down and grabbed two while he grabbed the others. As it turned out, Tyler was right across from me. I found that kinda reasurring. I thanked him for helping me and closed my door. I hooked up radio and turned it on,making the music louder than needed. I collapsed on my un made bed and fell asleep.

~*~*~

The next few days I spent setting up my apartment and hanging out wtih Tyler. It turns out Tyler goes to the same school as me.  I suddenly found myself throwing away stuff from Dylan and making room for the knickknacks from Tyler. One night I was watching tv in the living room when I heard a knock on my window. I ignored it. A few minutes minutes later, I heard a another knock on my window. I got up and opened my window. Looking down, I saw that it was Tyler standing there with a grin on his face. I looked at him. "Repunzal,Repunzal, with hair so fine, climb down your down your window and join me for some time." I smiled and laughed. "Oh Prince, dear Prince, your intentions are pure, but I, Repunzal, have no where to show." Again he tried. "Repunzal, Repunzal, who's humor's so strange, Meet me out front, and your life will change." I smiled."Dear Prince, Oh Prince, You know me so well, Giive me 10 minutes, and we'll do yopu will. I closed my window and ran into my room to get dressed. Tripping out of my room wearing a short skirt, purple tank top, black tights and black combat boots. Holding one boot and trying to lock my door, I exit my apartment locking it. I headed downstairs and met Tyler down there. I tapped his shoulder and ran around to the other side, then I tapped that side and ran all the back around till I was in my original spot. I stood there and smiled. I tapped his shoulder one last time and waved. He laughed and pulled out a rose and handed it to me. It was a beautiful black rose.  I blushed and stuck the rose in my hair. "What's the ocassion and where?"  He reached for my hand and halted, unsure. I grabbed his hand and held it in mine. "There is no real ocassion. The where is a suprsie." I gave him a look and he laughed. 10-15 minutes later we arrived at a building whose billboard said  "Bingo Tonite." I glanced up at him. "Bingo? Seriously?" He raised an eyebrow. "No. Not unless you want to play." I shook my head and we sauntered into the building. I let Tyler lead the way. It took us a few minutes to get to our destintation. We cam to a black door. I could hear the music pulsing through. I pulled Tyler through the door,laughing. "There's a club in the BINGO house?" He chuckled. "No. Underneath it is the club." Just then, Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol came on over the loud speakers and Tyler held out his hand. "May I?" I smiled and took his hand, letting him lead me to the dance floor. "You may." As we started dancing, I realized something. Your not so different from me..." I looked at him. "He smiled and continued dancing. "Of course I am. I'm hotter,cooler and Awesomer than you." I punched his shoulder and smiled. "Okay. Yea right. " He smirked down at me. I conceded. "Okay.. So maybe you are hotter and cooler... But I am way AWESOMER than you."  I poked his chest. The song turned into a fast one, so I excused myself to the Ladies room. When I returned to Tyler he was bobbing his head to Pain by Three Days Grace. I immediately started dancing along with him,losing myself in the music.

I watched as she closed her eyes and danced to the music. She looked breath-taking.  I hummed along to the song and watched her.

~*~*~

I laughed as he danced down the street back down to the apartment building. My feet were killing me, my head was pounding, but it was all worth it. I was happy. I got so tired to the point were I was lagging and shuffling my feet. He turned around and looked at me as he walked backwards. "Hey! You okay?" I smiled and waved. "My feet hurt. Why are you so hyper?" He grinned and stopped walking till I caught up with him. "You shall know my secret one day."  I walked past him and then all of a sudden felt air beneath my feet. I looked up and gasped . Tyler had swept me up and was holding me bridal style and his face was so close to mine I felt his breath on my cheek. I looked up at him and then quickly looked away. I bit back a laugh and looked straigh ahead as he carried me to the apartment building. He put me down when we reached the front doors He leaned against the pole and looked at me with such an intensity that I looked away. He cleared
