October 20, 1995.

after i thought doug and i could get worse i found out from carter that doug and harper slept together last night.

"a med student doug?" i whisper shouted

"it was a mistake" he said in a form tone.

"a mistake" i groaned

"it's always a mistake with you"

"the problem is doug, it's that you don't think, you don't sit back and assess all your options, you take your anger and lash out at people and then fuck people" i shouted

i began to walk away but doug grabbed my arm.

"don't" i sighed

"we've been on and off for weeks" he pleaded

"i'm not saying you cheated, doug" i yelled

"we haven't been okay for months, the whole summer i waited for you to call, to come over"

"if you don't want this just say that" i added

he was silent.

i walked down the street and sat on a nearby bench.

the past few months had been stressful, i felt at home when i was with doug. it sounded so dumb but, he completed me in some way. i always knew doug made bad decisions but for some reason i thought that he was different when he was with me.

i wasn't really the type of person to cry that often, i sort of stuffed my emotions deep inside. but as i sat on the bench, i let it all out.

i put my head in my hands and just sobbed.

a few minutes later, i felt a body sit down next to me, i knew who it was. he rubbed my back and planted a kiss on my head before walking off.
