My bare feet brushed against the cold grass blades as I clutched the roses close to my chest. My graduate cap hung above my face but I stared at the ground as I walked, knowing exactly where I'm going. Orion trailed behind me silently. I'm glad he's leaving me be.. I have to do this by myself.

It has been 2 months since Katie died. Apparently I had killed myself, but brought back to life. It's like god wants me to suffer by myself without her..

"Leona." Orion finally spoke HP and I stopped in my tracks, my feet sinking into a mud puddle.

"..yeah?" I mumbled softly, my fingers digging into the roses in my grasp. One of the thorns dig into my thumb as tears started to fall.

"You don't have to be here.. We're leaving for Hawaii in 3 hours." I turned to him as he spoke. "We can leave.. Come on.." His smile made my insides rip apart. I knew he was hurting inside. Slowly I keep walking to a willow tree with a grave underneath it. I sit down next to the grave and set the flowers down as running my thumb along the letters engraved into the stone.

Katie (last name)

More tears fell from my face as I gripped my black dress around my stomach. I quickly rub my eyes, messing up my makeup but not caring. All I wanted left in the world was to curl up in the warm summer sun and have Katie play with my small brown locks and me stare into her gorgeous eyes.

But now. Her eyes are closed and empty. In the ground where things decompose. No one can ever decompose Katie out of my mind, she is like my light..that has now died out.

"Leona."

I ignored the voice.

"Leona we have to go.."

I still ignored the voice as I gently kissed the grave and broke down. My sobs filled the graveyard and I grabbed my graduation cap, chucking it into the mud. Orion runs over and grabs my hands as I reached into my bra. He grabs the pocket knife from my grasp and chucks it into the woods. Damn him being on the baseball team... I sobbed more but reached up at Orion. He crouched down and Wrapped his arms around me as I cried.

It seemed like days as I sobbed, clutching to the only thing I have left in my life. Orion ran his hands through my hand as panting, knowing he is crying. It's been really hard since she died. I try everyday but Orion is by my side 24/7. His girlfriend was cheating on him with her ex, but now he is alone as well. A week before graduation he convinced me to go to Hawaii right after we graduate.

"It's okay..I promise it's gonna be okay.." I stared at Katie's grave. I nod against Orion's shoulder and we before stand up. He grabs my hand and starts to walk away with me as I whisper.

"I love you Katie.." I glance back to the grave and saw Katie sitting on the grave with a gorgeous white dress, like a wedding dress. She flashed the brightest smile she could and disappeared into a single white rose petal. I turned and left my future behind.
