Kevin’s P.O.V
Danielle and I were best friends until I moved from Texas to California, after that we never talked anymore. I email her all the time about things that have been happening while I was here, but she never writes back.
I had just finished a day on the set of my new FOX television show Glee and I was walking back to my car. As I was right by my car some paper from my script, I accidentally ripped out earlier, flew away and landed near a small coffee shop.
“Great” I mumbled while walking over to pick them up. As I picked it up and was about to leave I heard:
“Danielle Meyers.” As the announcer finished saying her name I could not help but quickly turn around. She was even more beautiful than the last time I saw here.
“This song is for someone very special in my life who I really miss.: She strummed her guitar and I felt like I went numb, it was as if I was seeing a ghost. I blocked every other noise out except hr singing, her voice is like an angels. After a couple of minutes of me staring she finally stopped.
“Thank you.” Everyone clapped as she walked off stage; I quickly went to meet her.
“Danielle?” Her hair quickly whipped around and she gasped.
“KEVIN! What are you doing here?”
“What am I doing here? I should be asking you that.”
“I’m following my dream like you told me too, and if it means playing in a coffee shop every night then it’s a start.”
“Wow that is amazing. I really missed you Dee and....”
“OH MY GOD....LUKE!” She quickly ran by me and jumped on a guy who was much taller and kissed him.
“Luke this is my best friend Kevin, Kevin this is my boyfriend Luke.” Boyfriend? She has a boyfriend? Whoa this can not be happening, she said she would be with me, even though we were six and she just wanted my 64box of crayons, she told me that we would be together.
“Nice to meet you Dani has told me everything about you.”
“Yeah you too, well I should be heading out, nice to see you again Dee.” I turned around on the ball of my heels and walked in the direction toward my car
“Kev wait!” I heard someone yell from behind me and I looked over my shoulder, it was Danielle so I turned around.
“It is great to see you again, how about we meet here for lunch tomorrow at about noon?” My got cold as the wind came by but my ears were hot as could be.
“Yeah that sounds great.” She smiled and it lit up my face then she kissed me on my cheer and ran back inside. I drifted to my car and drove home. The ride felt longer than it was. I just can’t seem to concentrate; Danielle is the only thing on my mind. Her smile how it lights up a room. Her eyes how I easily get lost in them. Oh and when she laughs it just makes me love her so much more. I love her but I lost every chance I have ever had with her. Finally I was home after an hour ride which should have only been 20 minutes, but I took some wrong turns along the rode. I parked my car in the parking garage and just sat there for a minute and then slowly brought my head to the steering wheel and the horn went off.
“Calm down Kevin.” I said to my self when I finally took my head off and I walked to the elevator to go to my floor. Once inside my apartment, no one was home so I threw my keys onto the table I went over to the couch and laid down.
“TV will help....” Once I turned it on it was a couple kissing so I quickly changed that and put on ABC family because The Fresh Prince of Bel-air was on right now. After a couple of minutes I felt my eyelids get heavy and I remember I closed them saying I will wake up when the commercial ends. I never woke up when the show came back, but I fell asleep.
“Kevin....” Oh now I’m hearing her too.
“Kevin wake up!”
“No!” The nest thing I knew I have water poured on me.
“Whoa why did you do that!?” I yelled and she laughed.
“How did you get in?”
“Your roommate let me in.”
“Remind me to thank him.” I mumbled and she got up.
“get dressed and let’s go to breakfast. I’m starving.” I slowly walked to my room, I wanted to stay with her out there, but I needed to put something new on. I opened my drawers and found some jeans and a blue button up to put on.
“Luke didn’t want to join us?”
“No, I just wanted it to be you and me.” I smirked.
“And he isn’t a morning person anymore.”
“Oh and I guess you are?”” She ran in and jumped on my bed. Luckily I am a quick changer.
“Of course breakfast is the most important meal of the day.” As we were leaving she didn’t just walk down the fall, she bounced.
“I thought I was going to meet you at the shop?”
“I had to see you again; it has been years since we hung out, I missed you so much.” As we walked out the door we were struck by wind that pushed our hair back. I looked at her and smiled.
“So tell me what you are doing here, you told me that you would never leave Texas?” She laughed while putting some of her hair behind her right ear.
“You inspired me to follow my dreams and I saw how well you wee doing so I decided to come here and play at the shop till I get noticed, things weren’t so great in the beginning, but then I met Luke.”
“You love him?”
“I don’t know, he reminds me so much of you sometimes.”
“Me?”
“Since I couldn’t have you I settled for someone like you.” I stopped in my tracks and just looked at her.
“Why do you think you couldn’t have me?”
“Kevin you’re the one that left me. You were my first love and my first heartbreak, do you not understand? I loved you since we were 8 and you saved me from falling out of that tree. I replied to your emails or anything because I always wanted to tell you I love you and that song I wrote was about you. But this is stupid because....” I stopped her by putting my finger on her lips and once I removed it, i kissed her. She was shocked at first but then she kissed back.
“Danielle I have always loved you too, and I noticed after I left that leaving you was the worst mistakes I ever made. But you have a boyfriend.”
“Nope, I told you he isn’t a morning person anymore.”
“Be my girl?”
“Of course.” She smiled and kissed me again. You could call it fate that brought us back together last night, but I don’t. Love is what brought us together.
