One TimeOne time, I held him, and he held me. We couldn't sleep, and we didn't pretend to, because the night air was just cool enough to keep us out comfortably. In each other's arms, comfortably.One Time
One time, he met me at the water's edge, pale sunlight reflecting in early dawn, and nothing saw us except the lonely geese. One time, he fell weak, having shot rejected love into his veins, and I held his face in my hands. I promised to be there forever and he promised to never grasp cold metal again.
One time, I gave him a reason to stay. I promised him that everything-life- was much bigger than the temporary loneliness that plagued hi
V.My aunt was hot on my heels as I left the living room in a flurry. I poured a glass of water in the kitchen and stood with the water barely touching my lips, not taking a sip. "Isabelle, it's been rough, lately...some days she remembers, others she doesn't." She laid a gentle arm and anticipated a response from me. "Does Peter know?" She nodded silently. I had spoken to my brother more recently than my mother, but he had not mentioned any troubles here at all. "I called him after you called earlier. He'll be over this evening." I blinked and let my aunt leave me alone. I did not mean to be rude to myV.
IV.Linda pulled me into a tight hug that lasted far too long as she pulled up to the airport. "It's good to see you again, despite the circumstances," she said, mustering a sad smile and taking my small shoulder bag. "You too," I replied distracted and climbed into her car. "What are you doing back here anyways?" I asked as she started the car. She took a deep breath and asked "Isabelle, when was the last time you spoke to your mother?"

III.I sat with my back to the giant airport window as I checked my phone for missed calls. There was one number that I couldn't identify, and I had had several missed calls from it throughout my three-day return home. I shrugged and tossed it back in my purse as I slid further down the wall, exhausted. My flight had already been delayed two hours due to the weather, but it felt like I had been at the airport all day. I closed my eyes to attempt to take a nap when my phone began to ring. Groaning, I dragged my purse over to my side and dug around for my phone. It was the unknown number. "Hello?" I said groggily. "Hi, IsabelIII.
RewindRewind our hearts; Rewind the years. Capture the day, never let go. Kiss my eyes shut, Blind me from the wounds I left gaping and unhealed, Hide me from the callouses, roughened by time, Shield me from the imperfections you made all too clear. Spin me through time, Rekindle my care; The spark isn't ashen quite yet.Rewind
Closed mouth, open mind"What kind of cereal do you want?"Closed mouth, open mind
Well I want the only kind of cereal you seem to be missing, so I really don't want any.
"Anything's fine."
"How do I look in this outfit?"
The color is awful, your necklace is tacky, and your hips are enormous.
"That's really cute."
"Does anyone know the answer? What about you?"
I knew the answers to every question you previously asked during the time I've been here, and I have a good guess as to what the answer to this one is.
"No."
"How do you like your steak cooked?" I don't

The comedy I have planned is much more entertaining, trust me... although knowing me, I'll be the only one laughing at the end of the day.
