“Wow,” I whispered to myself when I was finished reading New Moon. It was such a good book; I couldn’t stop reading until it was over. I felt really silly when I found myself comparing Taylor to Jacob Black…even though they are kind of the same person, in a way.

It’s in the middle of Sunday afternoon, and I decided to stay indoors today. I figured I might as well because it’s my day off, and Derek decided to hang out with Kendra all day long. That was kind of selfish of him.

As a part of my daily routine, I sent a message to Nicky, only to have her not reply once again. I felt the usual pang in my heart after I realized how upset she is with me. After that, frustration took over because she simply doesn’t understand.

I walk into the kitchen, pondering through what little food I have and stumble upon the cookies Taylor and I made the night before he left. I laughed out loud because I thought I threw those away! I popped one in my mouth and chewed, slowly, as if that would somehow make it taste better. Well, it didn’t. I didn’t mind it at all, though. I smiled while I swallowed the disgusting little cookie and washed it down with milk. I smiled because I pictured him next to me, getting eggshells in the dough, putting in too much flour, and forgetting to add sugar. I loved how he sounded when we laughed so hard, and the way he made me laugh when his tickling wouldn’t stop…

I missed him so much.

I couldn’t even handle how much I missed him right now.

To distract myself, I turned on the TV and put my ipod on the dock, blasting the first song on the shuffle list.

After taking a shower and getting dressed, I sat down at the dining room table with my bills scattered out in front of me with my handy-dandy calculator. I had enough money to pay for everything, so I wasn’t broke, but living on my own is getting expensive. But if I don’t deal with it now, I never will. 

My ears perk up as I hear the sound of Taylor’s name on the TV in a recent interview. I run with lightning speed to see him talking with a reporter, talking about Breaking Dawn part two, like a good boy. I smiled at the thought of this. 

I caught myself staring at the way his mouth moved as he spoke with such clarity, and the way he broke into that breathtaking smile that I loved so much. 

Call me crazy, but I felt like when I looked into his eyes through the television, he was looking right at me. 

I shuddered a little and moved from his eyes to the rest of his flawless face, and the way the reporter girl was flirting with him. I felt a brief pain of jealousy, which turned into flat out anticipation when she asked him if he was seeing anyone.
