Disclaimer: I don't own these characters.... If I did they would have been at it like rabbits. LOL
Summary: Olivia's a mess. Natalia left. Where she went? You decide. (She isn't pregnant though)
A/N: Comments are like hugs... And I like to be hugged.
A/N: If you don't like it... That's okay.
Let's get it started....
Because You Live
I’m standing on the balcony looking out at the city. It’s raining. My heart is weighing heavily against my chest. It feels like the end of the world. In my mind anyways.
I can’t believe you’re gone. These negative thoughts wrack my brain. How could you have just left with no words or anything? Life threw me this curveball and I don’t know how to handle it. Every minute I make it through feels like an eternity.
I need you unlike anyone before. The love I feel for you is strong and a force to be reckoned with.
I need to get away. Away from this town. Away from myself.
I hear the knob turn and it’s enough to lure me from my thoughts. I turn around and see a shadow. It looks like you, but I don’t know if my mind is playing tricks on me. My heart rate increases and then I hear it.
“Olivia.” Hearing my name fall from your lips is like a wake up call. Your voice pulls me from my negative thoughts and saves me from myself.
I feel myself walking towards your voice praying that it’s real. My head is saying no, but my heart is saying go. I know I would walk to the ends of the Earth for you.
I come to a stop right in front of you and touch you to make sure you’re real. You are and I feel the tears begin to pour from my eyes. I immediately feel your strong arms come around me whispering I love you and I’m sorry into my ear.
Everything is back in order. I feel alive again. You have breathed the life back into me.
I want to yell and scream at you for leaving me, but I know it’s no use. You came back and that’s all that matters. I’m gonna forgive you. I have to forgive you.
“What is life? What’s the use if you’re killing time?” I think to myself. I don’t want to waste any more time.
I pull back from your embrace and look into the dark brown eyes I’ve fallen in love with. I can see that you have been crying and all I want to do is take the pain away.
“I love you.” I say. Plain and simple.
You look up at me stunned. Unsure if this is a joke or not.
“A-a-are you sure?” You ask in between sobs.
I’m more sure than I’ve ever been in my life. “Yes.” I calmly state.
“But what about what I did?” I can see your eyes beginning to fill back up with tears terrified of the answer.
“What about it? You left, but I realize that I have only felt alive when I‘m with you. I am my happiest when I‘m with you.” I say wiping the tears that have started up again.
You swallow and pull me back into a tight hug whispering “I love you” into my hair.
My heart swells with so much more love. And I know that this is where I want to be forever. You are the reason I take a breath each morning. The only person I want to see before I go to bed
It’s plain to see that because you live, I live.
The End
