That time we spent together was influential for me. He was like Halloween. Fun and exciting, scary and weird. He introduced me to things about myself that I didn't know. I loved him for exposing a side of himself to me that most people never got to know. To this day, I think he still loves me. Purely. I broke his heart after spending all night on the phone telling each other how much we meant to the other, I ran away in fear and there was an entire year that we didn't speak and I felt like I was going crazy. I loved that boy. The late nights, the alcohol, the ****, starlit drives, the bond we created. I have never met someone who so honestly said how he felt.
