| �Why do you need deals?� �I don�t want you to give me the money. I would have to pay you back and that�s a debt I don�t think I could pay. Brian, if we were to break it off, then what?� I sighed and grabbed her hand. �I�ll make this easy on both of us�� �Brian, I�m not breaking us up. I just need time, time to get things in order.� �Theresa�� �Forget it. I thought you understood. You of all people. I guess I was wrong. Just forget I needed space. We�re through Brian. That simple.� She slammed her napkin down and ran out of the restaurant. - *~* In the words of a broken heart/ It's just emotion that's taken me over/ Caught up in sorrow, lost in my soul/ But if you don't come back/ Come home to me, darling/ Don�t you know there's nobody left in this world/ to hold me tight/ Don�t cha know there's nobody left in this world to kiss goodnight/ Goodnight, goodnight *~* And here I am. Nursing a drink that I thought I needed. Maybe I didn�t need it. Oh hell, who knows what I need. I glanced back at the people and smiled. I tried to picture them in the future. Would they be together? Would they be married? Have kids? Yet, I couldn�t. I learned that nothing was certain. Life was life and it dealt you what it felt like. I learned that the hard way. Things don�t go as planned. I tried to smile and yet, I knew I didn�t really get to. Forgetting someone you loved with every fiber of you, just wasn�t easy. I don�t know why I even tried. Though, I was thankful I didn�t have any tours soon. That would have killed me. *~* And where are you now, now that I need you?/ Tears on my pillow wherever you go/ I'll cry me a river that leads to your ocean/ You never see me fall apart/ In the words of a broken heart/ It's just emotion that's taken me over/ Caught up in sorrow, lost in my soul/ But if you don't come back/ Come home to me, darling/ Nobody left in this world/ To hold me tight/ Nobody left in this world to kiss goodnight/ Goodnight, goodnight *~* I finally got the courage to leave and walked back to my house. I took the long way and let the night air and the ocean�s breeze cool my temper. I knew I was going to move on. I stopped short as I saw someone sitting my front step. I was seeing things, I swear! Or maybe not. A vision, all dressed up in a satin red dress that clung to her every curve walked up and stood a few feet from me. I took a slow breath, praying I wasn�t losing my mind. She held out her hand and I gently took it. �No, not seeing things.� I smiled and she smiled back. �Theresa,� I breathed out. She wrapped her arms around my neck and gave me the sweetest kiss. �I didn�t want to end us Bri, can�t you see that? I was dying inside. But, if I have your name with mine trying to get money, 4you think I will?� �No honey, you won�t. And I can see where you�re coming from. I�m just sorry that I couldn�t give it to you.� �I�m not sure if you have to anymore. But no more talk tonight. Right now, let�s just make up.� Once more she pressed her lips against mine. I picked her up and took her into the house. Once I set her down, she ran upstairs, me slowly following her. All through the course of time, I realized when you�re playing with fire, you�re playing with emotion. Song by Destiny�s Child, �Emotion� |
