"Hey, did you get to meet him last night?" her friend asked as sat down on the chair across from her in the living room.
She nodded and then sighed. The night was not what she wished it to be. It was great to see him but it was always the same deal. They would not talk for months, then he would ask her out, they would go and talk and it was like no time had ever separated them. It was easy, casual and comfortable and that was a great combination. But nothing else ever came of it though she knew he desired her.
"Yeah we meet and we drink coffee and we talk about our lives and we listen to each others stories hoping that the other will bring up how much they miss the other but no one wants to be that weak. No one wants to admit they miss someone so much their bones ache." another heartfelt sigh escaped her and she ran both hands over her face.
"I am tired. So tired of being left behind." she said softly and stared out the window watching the leaves fly past. Winter was coming and she felt cold within her soul.
Once, just once, she wished someone loved her enough to stay, to fight for her.
Just once.
