Don’t Know Why I Didn’t Come by sandracarol
Julian didn’t come.
He never came anymore.
He hadn’t done for months.
He was always sorry afterwards, but it still hurt.
Noel was gutted. He had put everything into arranging this evening. He had really put his heart and soul into it, in the hope that tonight he would get to see that look on Julian’s face just one more time. The one that he knew was just for him. But as usual it was to no avail.
He was really beginning to wonder what the point was now. Julian just wasn’t interested anymore. It couldn’t be more obvious.
The first time it happened, Julian had been really embarrassed afterwards, and Noel had spent ages
Going through the whole ‘It doesn’t matter, it’s just one of those things, and of course I don’t take it personally routine.
But it did matter, and how could he not take it personally? He wanted it to mean as much to Julian as it did to him.
It had happened again just a week later, and although there had been one or two brief shows of interest on Julian’s part since, it was now a regular occurrence.
He wasn’t going to ask anymore, It had reached the point were it was embarrassing for both of them, and he knew that Julian would never find the courage to say no to his face.
It was up to Noel, to get to grips with the reality of the situation, and live with it
He gathered up his stuff and left…
Alone…
He had to face the facts
Julian wasn’t going to come to anymore of his gigs.
