This Changes Everything VI

"How long?" Matt asked.

"He asked me two weeks ago." Sora said never meeting the other boy's eyes. "I said yes today."

"A week or two?" Matt sighed and walked away.

Sora cried as her own heart started to break.

Sunset found Matt sitting by the river watching the boats slip out to sea. "It's just not fair. If I had just a little more time.

In a week or two
I would have been ready
I would have known what to say
But I missed my chance
When the words "I love you"
Came just a little too late

In a week or two
I was gonna bring you diamonds
In a week or two
A long, long string of pearls and
We would've run down to the river at night
Sailed away, just me and you
In a week or two

A little more time
Was all I needed
But somehow Fall became Spring
But put off today
What you can do tomorrow
Sometimes you don't do a thing

In a week or two
I was gonna bring you diamonds
In a week or two
A long, long string of pearls and
We would've run down to the river at night
Sailed away, just me and you
In a week or two

These words in my heart never had a chance to be heard
But I'm telling you now for all that it's worth

In a week or two
I was gonna bring you diamonds
In a week or two
A long, long string of pearls and
We would've run down to the river at night
Sailed away, just me and you
In a week or two."

Joe walked Mimi back to her apartment, seeing as he still lived with with his father who desperately wanted him to be a doctor, and this was the only place he could really relax. Mimi had gone to get changed when a florist delivered a beautiful bouquet of white, yellow, and pink roses. Joe took them and looked at the card.

"Are those for me?"

"How long have you been seeing Izzy?"
