I came back out of my dorm in a plain red shirt and jeans. |

I sighed,i was going to have to show her i was friendly the only way i could,i went back to my dorm and got out my box of pearls,but i thought,white pearls or black pearls?I pulled out my box of white pearls too. i made a pair of white pearl earings and a pair of black pearl earing,and i made a white pearl necklace and a black pearl necklace,then 2 black pearl bracelets and 2 white pearl bracelets. i put both of them in a different gift box and walked down to her dorm,and knocked. |

When I got back to my room I put on my button up shirt and my jeans. I thought about it and shrugged. I slipped my boots on and then grabbed my guitar. I walked out to my truck and pulled the tailgate down. I hopped onto the tailgate and pulled out my guitar. I started to play 'Troubadour' by George Strait.
(If you can tell me two other songs he sings you get a cookie) |
|
|
I was drawing in my book when i heard a knock on the door.
I walked up and opened the door to find the boy again.
"Um..hi?" i said awkwardly |
|
|
(So you took one post and no jeweling equipment to make two pairs of high quality pearl earings, two necklaces, and four bracelets? You sure about that one?) |

(who says i didnt have the equipment?duh.)
I smiled."a little welcome gift." i opened both boxes."choose one." i smiled. |
|
|
|
"Oh no..i can't take one" i said giving them back to him
"There lovely, really B-but i can't take them" |
|
|
(You know what? W/e.)
I closed my eyes and started to play 'I can still make Cheyenne' by George Strait again. It was one of my absolute favorites.
(Noone knows even two other songs by him? Anyone know who he is?) |

I looked around and noticed some kids gathering. I sighed and hopped off the tailgate. I wasnt that good.... I shut the tailgate and walked back towards my room. I saw the guy from earlier bugging the girl again. I sighed. I should help her out. I come over and smile at them. "Hey, bro, we should get going." I pulled him along away from the door. I looked over my shoulder and winked at the girl as if to say, "Dont mention it" |
|
|
I smiled and mouthed a thank you as i walked back into my dorm and closed the door. |
|
|
I deposited the over bearing australian in the hall outside my room and looked at him. I opened my mouth to say something and just chuckled and shook my head. SOme people man. I walked into my room and turned my I-Pod back on. |
|
|
I sat on my bed and went back to my drawing. |
|
|
I sighed. I could never stay in my room to long, It had to do with spending most of my time outside normally. I grabbed my guitar and my I-Pod. Maybe I could get to the lake again and play some. I walked back out to the lake. I found a rock and began to play a song by George Strait called 'The Chair'. |
|
|
I ripped out the drawing and posted it on my wall, I thought for a momment and headed out my dorm bringing my drawing pad with me. |
|
|
I switched songs slowly, to one of my favorites, but I hated what it made me think of. I took in a deep breath and began to play the guitar. I began to sing not much later. It was a song called Whisky Lullaby by Brad Paisley and Allison Krauss. A single tear rolled down my cheek.
(If you havent heard it.. look it up on youtube real quick I guess.) |
|
|
Ive heard of it, sad isn't it?)
I walked around the campus with my hands behind my back. |
|
|
(Kinda, but if you have a memory tied to it... *shudders*)
I stopped halfway through the song. I just wasnt strong enough today. I set the guitar down and put my head in my hands. Tears streamed freely. I was glad that noone was likely to be strolling to the lake right now. |
|
|
I looked down and i saw a flower growing near me, i crouched dow and picked it up.
I walked along the path until i was at the lake.
I was looking forward the whole time, not noticeing anybody.

(dude,i have a memory tied to that song too.....parents...)
I grabbed my acoustic and walked down the the lake and leaned against a tree.I decided i was strong enough to sing it,my normally tough voive softened."she put him out....like the burning end of a midnight c1gger3t3.She broke his heart:he spent his whole life trying to forget" i tear slowly roled down my face and hit the ground. |
|
|
I took a few deep shuddering breaths, but I didnt quite feel ready to look up and face the world yet. I just listened to the lake waters lapping against the stony outcroppings. It was soothing, and maybe in a couple of minutes I would be ready. |

You could hear my singing where jerichoblox's char. was."we watched him drink his pain away,a little at a time,but he never could get dru^nk enough,to get her off his mind,until the night.....he put that bottle to his head,and pulled the trigger."Fat tears rolled down my face. |
