I just really like to start new stories. Forgive me -------------------------------------- I stood, dumbfounded as he walked away from me. He was all I had left, my life, my soul. He was the only one that truly understood me, we were like brother and sister. The ones that never had a mum by their side, the ones that never even saw their parents. But sadly, I was the only one that never seen their parents. Austin had his mum. But he had to leave, now. He promised he'll be back, but, even now, how can I trust him? 'Stop it, you're only 8. He WILL come back.' It seems like both of my consciouses are saying the same thing. I stared at the path that Austin had walked away from me. I'll just have to wait and see. *10 years later, at school* 10 years, and he isn't back yet. 10 years without him, 10 years with him gone. "Hey, Ashley! There's a party at Ruby's wanna come?" my best friend announced as she suddenly came by my side. Her voice was like an angel's and that's apparently what she looks like too. Beautiful golden locks of hair that looked like it was spun from pure golden thread, ocean blue eyes, and a bit taller than me too. I sighed. I didn't want to go, but I can't disappoint Rosanna. "Sure, what time?" I tried to sound cheerful but all I could hear was Austin's voice, ringing in my head. "Are you okay?" she asked concerned. I have to admit, I was feeling a little woozy. Well, more like really woozy. "Yeah, I'm fine." That's the last thing I remembered until I blacked out. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ What do you guys think? I think it's my best one, but that's my opinion. Criticism is welcome!
