It was the third time he was hearing this song on the radio. His song...of all songs the song he wrote for another woman was now playing and it was biting him back in the ass in the worlds worst way.

You were my sun
You were my earth
But you didn't know all the ways I loved you, no
So you took a chance
And made other plans
But I bet you didn't think that they would come crashing down, no

You don't have to say, what you did,
I already know, I found out from him
Now there's just no chance, for you and me, there'll never be
And don't it make you sad about it

You told me you loved me
Why did you leave me, all alone
Now you tell me you need me
When you call me, on the phone
Girl I refuse, you must have me confused
With some other guy
Your bridges were burned, and now it's your turn
To cry, cry me a river
Cry me a river-er
Cry me a river
Cry me a river-er, yea yea

I know that they say
That somethings are better left unsaid
It wasn't like you only talked to him and you know it
(Don't act like you don't know it)
All of these things people told me
Keep messing with my head
(Messing with my head)
You should've picked honesty
Then you may not have blown it
(Yea..)

You don't have to say, what you did,
(Don't have to say, what you did)
I already know, I found out from him
(I already know, uh)
Now there's just no chance, for you and me, there'll never be
(No chance, you and me)
And don't it make you sad about it

You told me you loved me
Why did you leave me, all alone
(All alone)
Now you tell me you need me
When you call me, on the phone
(When you call me on the phone)
Girl I refuse, you must have me confused
With some other guy
(I'm not like them baby)
Your bridges were burned, and now it's your turn
(It's your turn)
To cry, cry me a river
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river-er
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river
(Baby go on and just)
Cry me a river-er, yea yea

Oh
(Oh)
The damage is done
So I guess I be leaving
Oh
(Oh)
The damage is done
So I guess I be leaving
Oh
(Oh)
The damage is done
So I guess I be leaving
Oh
(Oh)
The damage is done
So I guess I be... leaving

You don't have to say, what you did,
(Don't have to say, what you did)
I already know, I found out from him
(I already know, uh)
Now there's just no chance, for you and me, there'll never be
(No chance, you and me)
And don't it make you sad about it

Cry me a river
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river-er
(Baby go on and just)
Cry me a river
(You can go on and just)
Cry me a river-er, yea yea

Cry me a river
(Baby go on and just)
Cry me a river-er
(Go on and just)
Cry me a river
(Cause I've already cried)
Cry me a river-er, yea yea
(Ain't gonna cry no more, yea-yea)

Cry me a river
Cry me a river, oh
Cry me a river, oh
Cry me a river, oh

Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)
Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)
Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)
Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)

Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)
Cry me a river, oh
(Cry me, cry me)
Cry me a river
(Cry me, cry me)

Justin looked at the picture that still sat at his nightstand.  He closed his eyes and went back to the day he took that picture of Kelly.

Flashback…

“Justin….please don’t make me take this picture.”  Kelly said as she saw him put the camera up to his eye and start snapping pictures.

“Kelly baby you look amazing.  I promise you I will be the only one with this picture of you.” He took a few more pictures of Kelly in nothing but his white button down shirt. Her long legs and how the bottom of the shirt hit high up on her thighs.  She sat on the window sill.  The shirt was buttoned up to her cleavage.  Her eyes were looking out the window and the light that was coming in was making her angelical face look more beautiful then ever.

Kelly smiled to him as he took the picture.

Justin  took the picture that was there and moved it.  He had to.  He needed to move on with his life.  Even if it meant that he had to do it without being with the woman he loved.  He messed up and now he was paying the price.

As he went to the closet and put the picture in a box.  A box of things that remembered him of a life he could’ve had and should still have.  He was the one that let it go by being the player.  The one that slept around behind her back. 

He went to the bathroom and turned on the shower.  He stripped and went under the warm water.  There he started to think again….

FLASHBACK

:knock:

“yeah?”  Justin said as he was under the water.  He didn’t hear anything at first and kept standing under the water.

Before he knew it, he felt someone behind him.  He then felt a pair of hands on his back washing him.

When he turned around there, Kelly was, naked, getting wet, and getting him hard.

Very shyly, Kelly smiled to Justin and said, “need company?”

Justin smiled down into Kelly’s beautiful blue eyes and cupped her face as he said, “I’ll never turn down company in the shower.” 

Next moment their lips crashed and he started to caress her body.  He lifted her up off the ground, pinned her to the wall and in a swift moment the two became one.

Kelly arched her back as Justin was moving in and out of her.

Justin moaned her name as he felt his end coming.  He breathed heavy as he finished himself off and flet himself go limp.  He opened his eyes. He saw that he was against the wall and sighed.  He fast washed himself up and got out of the shower. 

He walked to the living room and there he turned on the news.  Of course it was extra with the highlight story of the day.  He closed his eyes and fell asleep having the same nightmare he had been having since he last saw Kelly.  That was two weeks ago.

Flashback:

Justin walked into his place late that night. He looked upstairs and sighed.  He thought Kelly would be sleeping.  Hell it was 5 am and he had been out all night again.  Drinking, dancing, screwing another woman.  Only problem is that it wasn’t anyone.  It was Kelly’s best friend.

He went to the living room thinking it was empty and he was shocked to see her awake, and dressed.  “Hey, what…wha.”   He was cut off by Kelly

“What am I doing up?  Why am I dressed? What you think I wasn’t stupid Justin?”  Kelly said as she stood there.

By the look on her face Justin knew he was caught for the last time. He had been doing this to her for a while now.  He had been cheating with other women for over 3 months.  Why he never knew.  He loved Kelly with everything in him.  He just was so used to being the playboy and women throwing themselves at him he would always cave into temptation.

Kelly stood there looking at Justin her heart being broken yet again.  “You know I thought you would have been smarter than this Justin.”

Justin stood there, “Baby please,”  He was cut off again,

“Please what?  Forgive you?  Take you back so you can keep doing this to me?  Nope.  I have been dealing with this for far too long and this is it.  I can’t stand how you can say you love me one moment and think it’s okay to fuck other women.  How can you think that?”

“I…I don’t know…but I do love you Kelly…please give me a chance to change and prove that to you.” Justin said opening his arms.”

Kelly had walked back to the door and said, “No Justin, you had your last shot.”  Kelly turned opened the front door and said, “Don’t follow me and don’t look for me.  Good Bye.”

Justin stood in front of the door in total shock she left him.

:::Two Months Later:::

Justin was hanging out at the club finally starting to get back to his life.  Granted he still had a broken heart that he only had himself to blame for having, but he was enjoying a night out with…with…what was her name…Julie, Jessie, Jamie…hell he didn’t know he was enjoying her beauty.

That was until he saw the one person he was trying to get over.

Kelly walked into the club.  She looked better than ever.  He stopped dancing with the woman he was with.

“baby ill be…right back”  he walked to where Kelly was and smiled as he saw her.

Kelly saw Justin walk to her and almost froze.  She smiled at him.

“Hey Kelly.”  Justin said.

“Hello Justin.”  Kelly said very calm and relaxed.

Justin felt lost, “Kelly, I am still sorry, you think we could talk.  I…I still miss you.”

“Justin, I don’t.  I have finally moved on…you knew this two months ago when you came to my place to get me back then. “  Kelly said,

Justin was about to say something but she cut him off.

“Justin, you cheating the last time was the best thing that could have happened to me.  It led me to JC.  I have always cared for him.  You know the nights I left to go cry somewhere, you ever know where I went.  To his place, or he was at the clubs seeing you and telling me.  He was the first one there when you broke my heart.  He was there as the friend I needed and the man that showed me what love could an is really like.  It’s not what I thought before but boy am I glad I know what it’s supposed to be like now. Love comes from here.”  She raised her left hand and touched her heart. 

Justin looked at her hand and saw the answer he didn’t want to see.  A diamond ring was on her finger telling him everything he had with her was over.  No more chances.  He had too many and the last one was really the last and final one. 

JC walked to Kelly.  “Hey baby girl. Ready to have fun.”  He said as he looked to Justin and just looked at him as if he was glass.  There but transparent.

Justin saw the look Kelly had on her face with Jc.  It was the same look he used to get.  He knew right then and there that it was over.

“Kelly, JC, I….congrats.”  Justin said as he turned and walked away.   He never thought he would see this turn out this way but it did. 

He was now alone.  Without the one he screwed over and screwed up on.

As Justin got into his car to drive home, alone the one song he escaped for months came back on again and haunted him, because now it was his turn to cry himself a river.
