Last Kiss

After they ordered Clarke got the look, a look that Peter had known all too well by this point. Clarke began to go on and on about what was going on with him and started making his excuse about everything. With Clarke 10 minutes into his excuses, Pete put his hand up to stop him,” I’m tired of hearing your excuses if that’s what you want to call them. You know why I don’t want to get back with you; because of all of the shit that you pulled and keeping trying to pull. When we met, it was simpler. You were different, you were someone else, and I don’t see that person anymore. With all of your lies, I just don’t want to take the time to see if you will really change in the end. I’m putting in all of this energy and you are only putting it in when you have too. I’m sorry but I can’t do us right now. When the real you comes back, let me know.” Pete got up, kissed Clarke on his forehead, and left. As he walked out the door the tears began to run down his with,” Goodbye my love” under his breath.
