Love Notes

Chapter 36-Maverick



I was finally allowed to come back to school. Thank the Lord above. I was doing a lot better with therapy, probably because I was ready to be out of there. I worked extra hard and let me tell you it was hard as shit. I don’t recommend getting any kind of knee injury, cause let me tell you, it hurts like a bitch.

I was terrified at the thought of coming back to school, but I couldn't avoid it forever. I needed to set some things right. I needed with every fiber in my body, to get Charlie back. The moment I returned to school, it was like mass chaos. I was instantly surrounded. I know everyone was happy to see me and don't get me wrong, I was appreciative of the support, it was just very over whelming.

The moment I exited the vehicle, I was accosted by Ashley and Miranda. And wouldn't you know, the minute Charlie and I caught sight of one another, that she would see the two of them sidled up against me? The moment our eyes met, I was lost. Every feeling I had ever had for her, came rushing into me like a bolt of lightning. I started mentally kicking the shit out of myself.

What was I thinking pushing her away? Yes, I lost a possible scholarship for football. But damn it, if this girl isn't more important than any scholarship I could possible get. I really looked at her and then I had to look away, before I lost it. What the hell have I done?

Charlie’s lost weight and she looks so absolutely sad. I did that to her. I did. Nobody else can be blamed–just me. I screwed up big time and at that moment, I vow that I’m going to do everything possible to get her back. I’m going to prove to her just how wonderful she is. I have to get her back, I just hope I’m not too late.
