six feet under the stars

"How do people do this." Andy asked stareing out into the lake at the park.
" it is rather boring maybe if there where ducks it would be fun." I smiled at him as he looked at me strangely.
"you know I think your cute but ducks? Really?" I nodded. It seemed like the only normal moment I will ever have with him. "Come here I'll show you how much fun not ducks can be."
I walked over to him and he helped me climb the first rail of the dock. He pressed his body behind mine and stretched out my arms. It looked like the scene from titanic. But I had scene it before that too. I jumped off the rail after ten minutes of peaceful bliss.
"so tell tell me, since I told you about Delilah, how did you meet Justin." Andy asked as we sat down.
i giggled a bit at him. "We where born three days apart two doors down before they moved five years later. Sorry but I don't have an epic story like you do." I smiled.

"then tell me, why don't either of you talk about his sister unless its the day of your crash." His eyes bored holes into my soul waiting for an answer I'd rather not give.
"she died trying to bring me back whatever surprise it was she was giving me. Wendy was supposed to go with her. But she got caught up in homework. She ran a red light and hit a car. If the man in the other car had been someone else she would have been fine. But it was someone who had been chased by the cops. He shot her without looking back is what they said. I still have the small silver box in my bag. I haven't opened it. The fact that the thing she was getting me killed her tore Justin and I apart and we haven't been quite the same ever since." I had lost tears to this story a long time ago.

He wrapped his arms around me. A mutual understanding that we both knew how each other felt was passed around.
Delilah and mia. They would have loved each other. Fed off the others sarcasm and wit. Justin will grow close to her and protect her from terror leaving andy in the dust. I know it was at coming. Why didn't I say something.

Notes

So I think im getting a role on this thing again. Now that testing is over I can focus on this :-)
