Rating: Pg or Pg-13…… you decided the rating.
March 26, 2003My story is a sad one for me but a happy one for my best friend Ann Samson. She was my best friend. We met on the set of Lord of the Rings and we hit it off right away. She was friends with Dom, Billy, Orlando, Viggo, she was pretty much friends with everyone. She loved to dance and the moment I knew I loved her was when I saw her dancing at the first party we had on the set. I realized in that moment that I loved her and we had our first kiss that night. Let me tell you a little bit about her. She is a stunt woman/ make-up artist and she is now my age 22 and she is now happy with another man, one of my best friends. I loved her and we had a hot and heavy relationship but it fell apart after we found out we had our differences. I still love her to this day. This is my story.
2 years ago……“Elijah, where are you taking me?!” Ann asked as I led her blindfolded down a little green hill. It was our 2 year anniversary of being together and I wanted this to be a special time of us being alone, together. Without the interruptions of my friends who had decided to come a visit us in New York on the week of our Anniversary.
“You’ll see.” I whispered in her ear. We were in Central Park and I found an area of the park that was secluded from all the rest and was the most romantic spot I could think of for her, “Ok, we are here.” I whispered in her ear and I slowly took the blindfold off her trying not to get her beautiful shoulder length dark brown hair knotted up in it. I heard her gasp as she saw the small picnic set up with candles, roses and rose petals everywhere, and her favorite foods spread out before her. I walked around in front of her to see her blue eyes huge with surprise.
“Elijah, this is… It’s…” She stammered and I just laughed.
“It’s what?” I asked walking over to her. She was about a few inches taller than me but I didn’t care.
“It’s perfect and so romantic.” She said smiling her bright smile and she grabbed my face and kissed me passionately. After we had spent most of our time eating and kissing and being romantics I finally pulled out my gift I wanted her to have.
“Ann Elizabeth Samson, will you marry me?” I asked holding my breath and she gasped and began to cry.
“Yes.” She finally said softly and then I put the ringer on her finger and we kissed passionately and laid down on the blanket in lovers bliss. But that was when we had happy times, the worst times were about to come.
a year later……Ann and I had just left my parents house for dinner and things didn’t go so well. I had made the mistakes of saying things that I thought were true about Ann that weren’t. Like I didn’t know she was Catholic, I thought she was Protestant, or I said she had 3 sisters, when actually she has one brother, she calls her best friends her sisters, or I said that her father was dead, when actually he was still alive and he almost died from a surgery he had 13 years ago.
“Elijah you don’t know anything about me! You said all the wrong things tonight and now your family probably doesn’t think we are ready to be married!” Ann shouted at me as we stood in my living room of my apartment.
“Look, I am sorry alright! I didn’t know your past that well and I took things the wrong way when you told me about them!” I yelled back.
“No, you just don’t listen to me that’s it! You don’t listen!” She yelled and then she began crying, “Maybe we shouldn’t even get married if you don’t even know anything about me. Dom and Billy and Orlando know more about me than you do.” She whispered and then I got angry.
“So are you saying we shouldn’t even be together?! Is that it?! Are you saying Dom or Billy or Orlando are better guys for you!?” I yelled back and she began crying even more.
“No that is not what I am saying! I am saying that maybe you should take some notes from your friends and try to get to know me better. We dated for 2 years and you never once really asked me about my family! You just assumed everything from stories you heard!” She yelled back crying and I felt my face fall, she was right. After all the time we had dated, I never once had asked her anything about her past. She collapsed to the floor and I went over to her and cradled her in my arms as she cried.
“I’m sorry.” I whispered to her as I cried and we each apologized and forgave each other but that was only the beginning the worst was yet to come.
3 months later and 1 month before invitations go out for the wedding……I had woken up in my bed with a woman lying next to me I didn’t know, yet I looked over at her and I realized who she was. She was Ann’s old High School friend who came to visit the other day. Her name was Lexi with her light/dark brown hair messy and all over the place she was sleeping silently next to me. I remembered last night and how I was talking to her and learning more about her and her life than I did in one date with Ann. I was beginning to feel loving affections toward her but I had pushed them away.
We were having an engagement party that night with everyone and we all had gotten smashed. Ann went out back with Orlando and they had started singing badly until we could hear no more noises from them. I went outside to check on her and I found her asleep in his lap and him snoring a little as they both were in the lawn lounge chair in my LA Home. After that I remember kissing Lexi and then I drank some more with her and we kissed some more and then I don’t remember much after that, until now that I am laying in my bed with her next to me with our clothes sprawled everywhere do I remember.
I jumped out of bed trying not to wake Lexi and I threw on my boxers and was trying to put on my pants when Lexi woke up and looked around and her brown eyes got very big.
“Oh my God.” She whispered as tears came to her eyes. She looked over at me and I saw the pain in her eyes, “Ann is gonna kill us and I am breaking my friends heart.” She whispered to me as she pulled the blankets closer to herself.
“I know and I am breaking my fiancée’s heart.” I said to her and just then I realized the bedroom door was open and I could hear footsteps up the stairs. And before I knew it Ann was at the door.
“Elijah, what exactly happened last- Oh my God.” She said softly as she had walked to the door and she found me in my boxers with Lexi in the bed behind me with her clothes strewn everywhere with the rest of mine. I saw her get tears in her eyes filled with pain and anger and hurt. I could practically hear her heart breaking into a thousand pieces.
“Ann it was an accident.” I said trying to walk closer to her but she backed up some.
“Ann, I am so sorry. I didn’t know what was going on I was drunk.” Lexi said softly with tears falling down her face. Suddenly Orlando came running up the stairs and came behind Ann.
“Elijah, we need to talk about you and…” He said coming into the room and standing next to Ann but stopped when he saw what was going on.
“Ann, babe, please let me explain.” I said coming closer to her and I reached my hand to touch her arm but she jerked it away.
“No.” She said softly and she ran out of there and down the stairs.
“Good job Elijah!” Orlando said glaring at me. I knew he had feelings for Ann and he had finally accepted we were getting married whether he agreed with it or not, he just wanted to see her happy and now I didn’t blame him for yelling at me. He ran out of there and called after Ann. I didn’t care if he went right now and kissed her or even slept with her because I was heartbroken and hurt at what I had done to Ann and myself. Lexi quietly got up and went into my bathroom and changed and she left with tears in her eyes. I collapsed to the floor of my room crying and upset at what I had done but yet there was a small part of me that felt better that it was over and I didn’t know why.
Today……Now I am sitting in a café in LA waiting for my lunch dates to arrive thinking back on all of that wondering why it happened and why now I feel more free yet still with a little pain. I loved Ann but I knew deep down inside I didn’t, I fell in love with Lexi and I had lost her too because of a mistake. Now I am single and alone and wondering what the hell I did and wondering why it had happened, because everyone says stuff happens for a reason. Well, nothing good has come out of it, except me now being single. Well, some good came out of it.
Both Ann and I realized we weren’t in love, we both admitted we had fallen in love with other people and we decided to stay friends, she forgave me for what happened and it admitted she and Orlando had made out with each other earlier that night before they had passed out. She loved Orlando and there was nothing I can do about it. She also made up with Lexi understanding that it was an accident that had happened but she didn’t tell Lexi that I loved her.
Well, that is now all in the past and I need to move forward as Dom put it the other night. I now see my lunch dates approaching, Ann and Orlando. Both look happy, happier than when it was me and Ann together. They are holding hands and laughing with one another.
“Hey guys!” I said when they came over.
“Hey Elwood!” They say in unison and I laugh as they both hug me. We eat lunch and have a nice conversation about life and work. They were both talking about how they are planning on trying to work around seeing more of each other while Orlando leaves for Mexico to start filming Troy in the next week and we talked about meeting up at the up and coming POTC premiere. Ann said she got a job doing the horse stunts for some up and coming movie and they asked me about life and I told them that I am still single and going to be getting a new job soon.
“Well, we should get going. I’ve got to go and run some other errands. It was good to see you Elijah. Call me alright and we can hang out some more.” Orlando said and I nodded.
“I also got to get down to the Horse stables and check on my horses that a re leaving tomorrow on a plane for the movie. It was good seeing you again Elijah and please keep in touch.” She said smiling and I smiled back.
“I will. Bye guys.” I said and they walked away holding hands. I saw Orlando give Ann a sweet, soft kiss on the lips before she got in her car to go to the stables and I heard him say “I Love you” and she responded with the same sentiment. Then she drove off and he got in his car and drove off. I was about to leave the Café when I ran into a familiar face.
“Hey Elijah.” Lexi said picking up her purse she had dropped.
“Hey Lexi. How are you?” I asked.
“Good and you?” She asked.
“Good.” I said and we were silent for a moment.
“Well, I’ve got to go. Nice seeing you.” She said smiling.
“Yeah, nice seeing you too.” I said softly feeling the hurt come back to me.
“Bye.” She said and then she went off and went to go get a cab.
“Bye.” I said softly as she walked off. Then I realized I was letting the real woman I love get away and I then began running after her, “Lexi! Wait!” I yelled and she looked up right before she got in the car.
“Yes?” She asked.
“Would you like to have dinner with me Saturday night?” I asked and she smiled.
“I’d love to, but I’ve got to go. So I will call you?” She asked smiling and I smiled big back.
“Yeah.” I said and she got in her car and I walked back toward my car happier than I have felt in a long time. Maybe this was the reason why it all happened.
