You Were My Everything
by skyler
You Were My Everything This amazing kid, Steve, was everything to me and he said I was everything to him. As time went by though, I realized I was nothing more to him than just another girl. I was cheating on my ex boyfriend with Steven when we started to go out. He told me I was amazing and that he knew he was going to fall in love with me. He told me I was so much different from every other girl he's ever gone out with, that's why he was changing for me. He made me feel like I was invincible, but really I was nothing to him. We went to the beach one day and he gave me a shell and told me to never lose it and I never did. When we broke up, I gave him the shell back and he asked me if I really kept it all this time? I said, of course, it meant a lot to me. Ever since I started going out with him, my life had changed. I was getting in trouble with the cops, having sex every night when I never wanted to. All these memories with Steven hurt me. Before we broke up, I got grounded because I left. I spent the whole night with Steven. Later when we were laying in his bed, I asked him if he still had the shell. He said yes, pulled it out of his pocket and said, I carry it everywhere I go, so that it feels like you're always with me. I turned away and cried. He grabbed me and told me not to cry, that he would always be there for me. Always, no matter what. He started to cry and I asked what was wrong and he replied, I can't lose you, you were my only good thing...you were my everything, I can't lose that. Later on, I told him to go to sleep and he said no, I don't want to. I asked why. He said because I don't know if this will be the last time I will ever get to hold you. He looked in my eyes and told me that I would always be in his heart, would always care for me and never forget about me, especially the feeling he'd get when he looked into my eyes. Two days later, I told him I was pregnant with his child. I've never heard from him since. He said he'd be there for me always. I am 17 and I have a 2 year old son without a father and every time I see him on the street, I look away and act like he's just another guy, just like he treated me. I will always love him. I just wish he loved me. |
