Some of this is based on a true life event. Hope you enjoy. Please give helpful criticism. ___________________________________________ I stand up slowly, sobbing. I wipe my hands clean on my jeans. He won't lie to me anymore now. •Flash back• I try to read my book to distract my mind off my phone, but it doesn't work. I continuously glance at it. I sigh heavily and stare at the words on the page. Then my phone finally gives off the text tone. I giggle and snatch it up in my hand. The text reads, " I am so glad I have you. You are my everything. You're a gift from God." Being too happy I forget that I am on the edge of my bed, I lean too far and fall onto the ground. My phone begins to ring, his picture pops up. Laughing at myself I answer. "Aha-ha, hello there!", I stay laying on the ground, rubbing the rough carpet with my hand. *Laughing at how I told you my feelings?*, sounds of boots hitting tile reverberate off the walls. "Never. I fell off the bed. Wait...you shouldn't be on the phone!" I jolt up off the carpet, suddenly filled with worry. A door clicks, indicating it closed. *Don't worry, I got the called cleared. I know it's late there. I just wanted to hear your voice.* I squirm with delight, "I love you." Silence. Then far off angry sounding voices fill the air. *I have to go. I love you.* He suddenly hangs up, his picture disappears and leaves me wondering.
This is great. ^.^ I would suggest maybe a little more detail, and upgrading a few words so it's a little more… descriptive. But I like it so far bump!
•Three Weeks Later• I sit on the couch, a Coke bottle in my hand and a bowl of flaming hot Cheetohs beside me. My eyes glued to the tv screen, watching a random movie pick. It had been three weeks side I've heard from him last. The car in the movie explodes, the blast wave knocks down some people as the let out terrified shrieks. It's all my fault he called me and it doesn't take long to jeopardize someones life. It is all my fault. A copper taste fills my mouth. Bit my lip. Suddenly my phone vibrates, making me jolt and spill my Coke on myself. I look at my phone screen and the name on the sent text is his. The text reads, "Hey baby, how at you?" I stare at my phone, appalled. This time I don't snatch it up my phone, I let it lay beside me. Like some plague. I get up and go to the kitchen, licking the hole in my mouth. A painful but slightly pleasurable pain shoots through my mouth as I keep my tongue there. I grab a napkin and cleans myself off a bit. Upon returning to the couch I look down and see that I have a missed call from him. I kneel and wipe the small spill off the ground, glaring at my phone. As if it was playing an Aprils fool joke several months early. I sit back down on the couch, pushing my hand into the bowl and grab a handful of Cheetohs. I stuff my face, crunching down angrily on the chips. My phone begins to vibrate enthusiastically at me, flashing his picture at me. I grab it and answer, not pausing my movie, and not saying a word. *Why didn't you answer my text or first phone call Scar..?*? I swallow the junk in my mouth, it slightly gets caught in my throat and I cough loudly, "Azure..." I groan out, but I know he could hear the worry. *I know baby. I'm still alive.* He clears his throat. *I, uh, Scarl-* "I thought you were dead!" My voice goes high pitched, I realize I had cut him off and immediately feel bad. "I am sorry..." *No, you have every right to be upset. I am fine. I love you.* The sound of a squeaky chair and muffled out voices fill his background. I stay quiet and lick my lips, "Jaron..." I finally say after several long seconds. "How come your account on Local Connection was...is saying that you are single, looking for naughty girls, and that your profile picture constantly changes?" I hear him clear his throat and cough quietly. *Babe, yeah that, uhm, wasn't me.* The squeaky chair again. *That was my friend....Mike. Yeah.* I scoff in disgust. I hang up suddenly. I toss my phone onto the couch and leave him wondering.
