Do you believe in fate? Or was that just a word you used to lure me in like all the other girls before?

I fell for it all — the looks, the eyes, the smile crafted just for me. You were like a shooting star over a midnight sky: wondrous yet fleeting. I should have known better, but I was weak and vulnerable when someone said the right things.

I didn’t know what you were. Not back then. I couldn’t have fathomed what your true form looked like.

I had been staring into a black hole and never even realized it.

This is my third take on the 100 Story Challenge! Lyrics define these stories, and this piece‘s title was inspired by “E.T.” by Katy Perry.

If you missed out on rounds one and two, I’ve linked both my original 100 Story Challenge list as well as my 100 Faces in 100 Stories list below for your perusal if you’re curious.
