~Aimee's POV~
It's been a few years now. Luke and I have been... less than 'okay'. After he came out of the hospital (which wasn't just a few weeks later.) we became close and our relationship was going just fine. But later on, we've had some trust issues. Luke, he doesn't feel like he could trust me. We've broken promises. We've told secrets. Things have been hard for the both of us.
Luke and I went on a walk on a trail near a park. There, we talked about our own feelings. What we thought. It was all just pure honesty. We decided to break up. It would be better for the both of us. We walked back fine but we both knew that we were both crying inside. Getting over him was hard for me, but I've gone through. I'm doing okay now, but Luke and I haven't been talking much lately. I'm sure we'll become friends again soon. In time.
Not all of it was bad though. For once in a long time, I felt free. Free from the chains holding me down in this relationship. Free to be whoever I want. I don't have to worry about hurting Luke, we are now our own people. I finally don't have to live with being suspicious of what Luke's thoughts were. I could focus on myself and myself only. I felt like I had climbed a huge milestone in my life. I have had a whole new experience, to look back to in the future. I won't repeat my mistakes, for I have learned from them. I'm ready, to move forward. To move on. I'm finally free.
~Luke's POV~
I can't live without trusting Aimee. But I just can't trust her after everything we've been through. The broken promises. The shared secrets. The arguments. We've been through too much. We broke up surrounded by the beauty of nature. I felt it made us a little calmer of the situation. I knew that if we split apart, we'd both feel that it was what had to be done. It was just meant to be. We weren't meant to be. But I'm sure in time we will continue life as friends. We've both earned experience for our future.
Freedom never felt freer. It was as if a hundred pounds had been lifted off my chest. We don't talk a lot anymore, but I've seen Aimee. We have both been doing better. I feel that we've done the right thing, and we can pull forward. I can pull forward. No longer do I have to worry about Aimee every second of the day. We can be our own people and be okay about it. I can tell that Aimee is thinking the same. Everything's fine. I'm fine. And I'm freer than I've ever felt.
A MESSAGE FROM THE WRITER:
Yes! This is how it ends. Well, this is how the first season of the series ends. ;)
I am continuing this series, but because Aimee is technically my 'main character' I will continue it from her point of view. I mean, the series is called This is My Freind. As you may know, Aimee is my friend. Of course Luke is too, but the series is about Aimee. My best friend. (Make sure to follow her as well! She has great stories: bruhhitzaimee45)
I thank you so much for reading! Be sure to stay tune for season 2! :)
Don't forget to read my other stories as well! ;)
