Thoughts.com Blogs - A Life Without Me part III

When they got to Brandon's house Mike didn't leave the car. How could the love of his life be so close to leaving him this fast? How could his life be this close to getting ruined in only five hours. It was only a couple hours ago when he was sitting in his computer chair listening to music. That one call that had to happen did. He figured this type of thing would never happen to her. He remmebered her saying things like, "What if i got a concusion and died?" and it troubled him how she asked these questions and only a year later it had happened. Brianna was fifteen now and he was eighteen. Just three years before that they had started there relationship, they had fallen completly head-over-heals for eachother in less then two months. Now Brianna was uncontious with no love anyone. She was just a soul trapped ina half way dead body.
These thoughts cluttered his mind and he started tearing up again. He looked down at his hand, the beaded necklace she had made him a few years back. He remembered that day he came home. He had been at his grandfathers for a long time and he had finally come home. She had made him that braclet while he was gone and decided to give it to him for there anniversary. There three month anniversary. He remembered how the whole town had been bummed that he was back but Brianna was so happy it wasn't funny. That day they had picked up her ex-boyfriend Eric and hung with him but sooner or later Wayne came and took him home.
Brandon came out to the car and opened the door, "Are you coming in?" Mike looked back down at the braclet and got out of the truck. Brnadon helped mike out and brought him into the house. The house was cute and small but you could tell a guy lived there. Brandon walked into the kitchen and Mike followed like a lost stray dog searching for it's owner. Brandon looked over his sholder, "Give a guy some space in his own house would you please." Mike looked at the ground and started walking away and Brandon interrupted, "Dude, I was kidding. I know your upset wanna beer." Mike put his hands in his pockets and murmurred, "Brianna would never of let me drink so i quit." Brandon pulled out two beers, "What was that you said."
"Nothing i just don't want one right now."
"Come on man its one beer."
"One beer i shouldn't have just forget it."
Ok said Brandon as he put one beer away. He motioned for Mike to follow him into the living room. Mike trailed along slowly. Brandon sat down and turned on the TV. He patted the seat next to him and told Mike to sit down. Mike sat down. Brandon started starring at mike, "So what happened to this Brianna girl you speak of?"
"I'm not really sure. It's all a blur to me."
"Well why is she in the hospital?"
"She was in a car and it flipped over on the road...leaving her unconious."
"Oh...well she'll probably be okay right."
"The nurse said she had a chance."
"Ooo that's gotta hurt, so she was your girlfriend?"
"Yes, the best one i'v ever had. The only one i've ever wanted. The one I'm completly in love with and i planned on marrying her."
"Well, you can't marry an unconious chick can you?"
Brandon joked. But Mike was not laughing, not laughin at all. Brandon broke the uncomfortable scilence and switched tot he sports channel. "Well what was she like?"
"She was perfect. She had this thing with thinking she was fat but i say perfect. She had that perfect figure, and beautiful blonde hair. Her eyes were so cute. Yeah she always got what she wanted with me but it's okay. She took me for who i was and changed me into who i am now. Never focused on my past. Never let people decide what she thought of me. And even when everyone was against me and her being together she kept us together nomatter what."
"she sounds pretty sweet."
"yeah."
Brandon gave Mike a room to stay in and set and alarm for five thirty. That way he could visit her in the morning at six. Mike layed down in the bed with his damp clothes on. He wanted to fall alseep and never wake up.
