Gardenia Park

"Hmm, class doesn't start until 6pm, I still have 20 minutes." I said as I relaxed by a tree.

(sorry I am a little late)
Luna was running through the park trying to find Ricardo before he leaves for his college class. Then she spotted him laying by a tree. She ran over to him. "Ricardo! I am so glad you haven't left yet. Listen there is something really important I need to tell you. But I need you to not get upset. Okay?", Luna said catching her breathe.

"Luna! I was just thinking about you...look, I know we just met but I really feel like you and I have a connection, I was stunned by how amazing your personality was and how beautiful you were. I'mso glad to have found you." I said as I blushed.

Luna wanted to hesitate about telling him she had to go. But she had to do it before she leaves tonight. She wanted to cry because she liked him so much. "Ricardo...I-", she began to speal. "Listen, I really like you too. And I also want to hang out with you but...dang I can't do this", Luna said while hitting her hand on a tree, taking a step forward and taking a deep breath then speaking again. "Listen, Ricardo. I have to go away tonight. I am very sorry. My friends and I have to go back to Al....I mean A place. I mean...uh....okay. We only came here for a short period of time. You know, for a visit and...this is complicated. We are leaving tonight. Okay? We don't live here, we live out of town. Like, in a different city, many many miles from here and that is where we go to school. I am very sorry, I can't stay here and we can not hang tonight. Please don't be upset. I still love you and we will meet again sometime in the future...maybe", Luna said as she started to shed some tears. She knew this would hurt him but she had no choice.

"You're leaving???" I asked as my throat got dry for a second indicating I was heartbroken. "No. No. No. I really believe you're the one for me Luna. I won't let you go. I promise when I get enough cash I'll travel to wherever you are and we will be together even if destiny doesn't want it." I said persistently. I then got a heart bracelet and broke it in half. "Here, as long as you have this we will always be connected." I said giving it to her.

"Oh Ricardo! It is beautiful. I promise that someday we will be able to hold each other's hands again. I am very sorry. I have no choice", Luna said as she wiped a tear from her cheek and held the heart piece to where her actual heart beats.

"It's too soon to say, but, I love you." I said as I gave Luna a deep hug. When I released her I noticed I had little time left before class started. "I...have to go." I said trying not to look sad. I then walked away.

Luna felt her heart break into. Then she just dropped to the ground crying. Her first crush, her first almost boyfriend and he is gone. Gone away from her life. She could not handle the saddness as she felt her heart breaking away. "I love you too", Luna said whispering under her breathe as she got up and ran away from the area. She was going to go back to her friends but she couldn't let them see her like this so she just ran into the trees to mope for a few minutes. "He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do
So I drive home alone, as I turn out the light
I'll put his picture down and maybe
Get some sleep tonight
Because he's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do
He's the time taken up, but there's never enough
And he's all that I need to fall into
Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see", she sings and emotional waves slowly fly from her voice as she is thinking of Ricardo and how she has to leave in a few hours as she continues to cry a little inside and out. "come on come on, don't leave me like this. I thought I had you figured out. Something's gone terribly wrong. Won't finish what you started. Come on come on don't leave me like this. Can't breathe whenever your gone. Can't go back i'm haunted", Luna continues to sing.

Luna can hear Talia yelling at,her and she felt like she was bothering her some how by just being there but her eyes were blood red turning blue every so often and her face was red as she squeezed her heart charm again.

"He was a little upset and he said that if he had to he would come where I'm at so we can be together and then he gave me this", Luna said holding up heart peice Ricardo gave her as a teAR came down her face.

Luna nodded and started to head back with the girls.

"Haha, I'm doing good. Wow you look - more and more beautiful each day." I said as I kissed Vanessa.

"Luna...uh..hey! I got these for you." I said nervously as I immediately gave Luna roses and chocolates.

"Hey princess, it's been a while huh? Haha, how have you been?" I said as I picked up Talia while hugging her.

"Hey uh, let's take a walk. There's something that I need to talk about with you..." I said as I grabbed Vanessa's hand and we started to take a walk down the park hill.
