Wrecking Ball || Luke Hemmings ||

E P I L O G UE

I was at the recital at Cardeny Hall, a place where only the best of the best song.

I was wearing a black skater dress with spaghetti straps.

And I walked up to the center of the stage.

Everyone in the crowd cheered.

There were a little over a thousand people, all seats sold out, I was going to be on tv and internet.

I smiled a fake smile to everyone in the crowd.

I spotted my mom, my brother, Jimmy, Gabs, and Matt.

I walked over to the piano and started to slowly play.

"We clawed, we chained our hearts in vain
We jumped never asking why
We kissed, I fell under your spell.
A love no one could deny."

I remembered when Luke had proposed to me at school. Everyone had been so happy for us.

"Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you."

I would always miss him, he was the love of my life. My soulmate, my very being to live. But I needed life, to give life, I was pregnant with a baby growing inside of me.

"I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me."

I remembered all those confessions Luke made, how I broke his walls, and became the girlfriend he said he always had dreamed to have. I loved him more than I did with Kyle. And he left...shattering me in a million pieces.

"I put you high up in the sky
And now, you're not coming down
It slowly turned, you let me burn
And now, we're ashes on the ground."

I remembered reminding Luke that he would be famous one day, he said if he ever did he would take me on tour with him, he promised, some promise that turned out to be.

"Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you
I can't live a lie, running for my life
I will always want you."

I wonder if he will continue to remember me, or if I will just be flicked to oblivion in his mind?

"I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreck me."

A single tear slipped out of my eyes.

"I came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung
Left me crashing in a blazing fall
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me."

I had had hope that he would come back, that he would return, and tell me he was sorry that he left. But that never happened.

"I never meant to start a war
I just wanted you to let me in
And instead of using force
I guess I should've let you win
I never meant to start a war
I just wanted you to let me in
I guess I should've let you win."

I should have not gotten interested in Luke, if I had never met him, this...all of this wouldn't have happened.

"Don't you ever say I just walked away
I will always want you."

The worst thing is... I can't stop loving him.

"I came in like a wrecking ball
I never hit so hard in love
All I wanted was to break your walls
All you ever did was wreck me."

More tears started spilling from my eyes, but I continued singing. I could not show anyone how broken and weak I was.

"I came in like a wrecking ball
Yeah, I just closed my eyes and swung
Left me crashing in a blazing fall
All you ever did was wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me
Yeah, you, you wreck me."

I put my hands on my lap.

The whole crowd erupted into claps and whistles.

I turned away from the microphone and stood up bowing to everyone.

"I love you Luke." I whispered with my eyes closed as more tears escaped my eyes.
