It's Too Late

This is what happens to Michael from This is the Last Goodbye.

While in prison Michael had a lot of time to think about his life and Amy. One day Michael was sitting in a corner lost in thoughts when some guy asked him
"What are you in for?"

Michael turned around and said "illegal drugs in my car, driving with a revoked license and attempted murder against my girlfriend."

"Wow" this guy said. "I'm Thomas".

"Michael"

"Do you miss her Michael?" Thomas asked.

"Yeah, it was stupid I shouldn't have done that to Amy, I really did love her and I still do..." Michael said as tears began to build in his eyes.

Thomas had been there before and that was why he was in prison now, he touched Michael's shoulder and said "Then get her back man."

"I don't know if I killed her."

Then a police officer walked over to the jail cell and called Michael over. He said that Michael had a visitor. He didn't know who it could be, his entire family wanted nothing to do with him and he didn't expect Amy to still be alive. The officer brought Michael "back to life" and put shackles on his hands and feet while he escorted him to where the visitor was. Michael couldn't believe it, he thought his mind was playing tricks on him... it was Amy. She looked stunning in his favorite color red. She walked up to him and sat down.

"How are you  Amy?"

"I'm fine Mike, how are you? Amy asked.

"Alright I guess, God I can't believe it's really you. I.. I didn't kill you?" Michael asked.

"No Mike, but you did put me in a coma." Amy said while the flashback caused her to shiver.

"Amy are you cold?"

"No, look I need you to sign something Mike.. please." Amy said calmly.

"Well guess what, I'm not signing anything!" Michael said curtly.

"Fine!" Amy said as she stormed out of the room.

The officer led Michael back to his cell and Thomas just stared at him like he was a freak show in the middle of the street.

"What the hell Michael?" Thomas said.

"Look I wasn't going to sign something to satisfy her okay." Michael said.

"You don't even know what it was." Thomas responded.

"So!" Michael said.

Michael's attorney came to his cell with another officer and said you two are free to go. With Michael and Thomas stunned they hugged the attorney, each other and walked out of the building.

Amy, upset that Michael didn't sign the restraining order she got  in the car with Adam and they went to pick up their daughters from her mother's house. Meanwhile Michael and his new pal Thomas went to his house to get his car and to see how things have changed in the world since they were away. Michael still wanted to know what Amy wanted him to sign. He still loved her dearly and was shocked that she was still alive after all this time... 5 years. He just didn't want closer which was why he refused to sign whatever paper she had in her hand.

While Michael was driving he spotted a black Honda Civic and realized that he just passed Amy's car. He quickly made a U-turn and followed the car until it stopped at a restaurant.

"What are you doing man?" Thomas asked.

"I'm trying to get my woman back." Michael said proudly.

Michael got out as soon as Amy did and was stunned to see that she was not alone.

"Amy!" Michael cried.

Amy turned around and said "Mike? Mike is that you?"

"Yes Amy and I wanted to say I'm sorry, I'm sorry for everything I was young and stupid I promise you it will never happen again, because I love you more now than ever. Please forgive me, you have to believe me I don't want to loose you."

"I do forgive you Mike, but I have moved on and I've gotten married and I have a family now. You'll always have a special place in my heart."

"Amy please."

"Mommy whose this?" Said two adorable girls dressed in pink.

"Girls this is mommy's old friend."

"Amy?"

"Look I'm sorry Michael but it's over, you have a clean start now go find someone you can share a new life with."

"Michael? You've never called me that."

Amy got aggravated with Michael's constant pleas then  Amy,Adam and their two daughters walked into the restaurant. When they walked out Michael was still pleading with Amy to take him back. After her constant rejections Michael became hysterical. He got in his car with Thomas and drove it off a cliff but while they were falling he called Amy one last time.

Author's Note

I guess the guilt got to Michael and he hated being rejected. What do you guys think? I'd love to hear it.

Both were good, but they could be better. They are both rushed, and forced. You should slow them down, and add missing details, like the 5 years he was in prison which would have also been the time Amy would have gone to college, had the twins and bought the studio. You should maybe think about turning it into a book or a longer, more detailed story.

Sometime they is no road back after great damage is done. I like the story. You create conflicts. Things to fix and a sad ending. Thank you for a outstanding story.

There should always be light at the end of the tunnel. It's interesting and I loved the part about not signing but the ending was very devastating.

[JUSTWRITING]

Powerful, emotional and sad, this beautiful story portrays emotions we all fear in life. Loved the way you built up the anger, the sadness and, at the end, suspense. Wow! It's really good!

[Crimson Goddess]

Too little too late comes to mind. Seems a bit choppy to me. I would like to read more. I need to get back to writing. I have a story i'd like to post but because of a lot of the names and places being copyrighted i dont know if its a good idea.

[Brittany W]

It could use details. I like to be able to see the characters in my mind. You rushed through writing this. Its easy to tell. I like the idea you have for it though and I see what your trying to get at. Maybe you should go back through it, added some details and slowed down the time a little.
