Belle Vick.

"Mom I'm home!" Mom simply shrugged and went back to drinking her vodka.        

         Belle is a 15 year old girl who's life is rough, she has no father and her mom is a drunk. Her only friends are Marley Wagner and Chris Negro.  Marley is a 15 year old girl that has never left Belles side sense they where just kids, and Chris is a 16 year old boy who wouldn't trade Belle for the world. 

           Chris and Belle met a few years back when she was out wandering about and he hasn't left her side sense, he has grown to love her as more than a friend and she has grown to love him the same way.  

Today the weather is bad and as I'm laying here with Chris, I ask him "do you think my mother will ever love me?" he quietly replied "Belle, I'm going to be honest with you, I don't think she ever has. If she loved you she wouldn't have destroyed her life with vodka." I looks at him with a tear in my eye and say "I think you're right Chris." I cuddle closer to him hoping I will never have to go without him. I start to drift asleep there with him. 

      That next morning I went out to meet Marley for a girls day.  Marley said "look at you princess, your hairs all messy from sleeping with Chris all the time." I smile and laugh then looked at Marley and say "Girly you look no better, you sleep with Kyle all the damn time!" We go out and on with our day, and went shopping for some new clothes.  Marley did all that she could to keep my mind off of my mom. We sleep outside tonight and I ask Marley "Do you think Chris really loves me?" "Yes Belle I think Chris really loves you and you'd be a fool to ever let him go." "Marley, I think I want to marry him someday." "Belle that'd be up to him, but when he asks you to marry him, I get to be your bridesmaid!" Belle laughed and said "absolutely" and we drift off to sleep staring at the stars.
