Unforgettable
CHAPTER 22: THE END
-------------------
Lauren & I sat
in the courtroom.
Everything had been cleared up so quickly; I couldn't believe
it.
Braydon was sitting at the front with a lawyer, and I
couldn't help but smile whenever we locked eyes. I wanted to
cry.
A window was open & a light breeze flew through the room.
We listened to evidence being presented, and it flew by in a
blur.
Lauren and Kendall had hired a man to kidnap Braydon when he
angrily left the beach, because they had planned that too.
Braydon had no knowledge of anything that happened, and he was
tied and left in a shed somewhere outside of town, where Kendall
tended to him about once every 2 days. The girls didn't state
any motives, but clearly they were crazy. Who would kidnap a
fellow peer, an ex boyfriend? Anyways, I didn't hear their
sentence or anything. But I knew they were expelled from school.
Done with that. Kendall was still my neighbor, but I didn't
know if I'd ever get a chance to talk to her again. So
everything was finished. It seemed like such a stupid,
unromantic, silly story. Two of my supposed friends kidnapped the
boy I was practically in love with. Cool story; like no one
cares. But I cared. And I was proud of myself.
I awoke from my thougths with the smack of the judge's
gavel.
I ran outside of the room and almost threw myself at Braydon. I
started crying as we hugged for what felt like forever.
"I missed you so much," I told him.
"Mia, I missed you too, and there's so much I have to
say to you but-"
I cut him off. "I know. I already know."
He smiled at me, and nothing could have prepared me for what
happened next.
He kissed me, right there in front of everyone, and it wasn't
like the last time. This time was even better because we could
show the world who we were and what we loved: each other.
~ 1 month later ~
Dusk was falling.
It had been a beautiful day.
Braydon and I sat on the pier, oh, the pier. We had met only 3
months ago, but it seemed like I'd known him forever. I was
now proud to officially call Braydon my boyfriend, and I
couldn't have been happier. My parents suddenly became
figures in my life. Lauren and I were close as ever, and who says
teenagers can't be in love? I was, and this was the most
perfect boy ever.
I squeezed his hand.
He looked over and smiled that killer smile that made me
melt.
"Mia, in the time you've been here, you have changed
me.. it's just.. I'm so glad you came to
Florida."
"Me too," I said. "Me too."
"Braydon?" I said after a moment.
"Mhm?"
"If you ever leave, I don't know what I'll do. How
could I ever forget this year, what's happened? To tell you
the truth, you'll be on my mind forever. You truly are
unforgettable."
"I love you," he said simply.
"I love you too. Forever and always."
And we sat like this until the sun went down.
