Chapter Two Remebering Lennox

Zayn often recalled the night he lost "Lennox," It was a tragic accident, two adolescents being love struck teenagers thinking about running off to be together, maybe to even elope. That night September 26th on a frosty fall day the two packed their things hid them away until their get away. With bags packed, money stashed where no one could find it hidden in a seceret compartment Zayn had found hidden under a few floorboards in his room. The two had spent months working on eachothers farms, halling hay, fixing the fences, rounding up horses and cattle in the fields.
They had saved their money for months even through the hard times, when food dwindled and objects were enticing they had one goal and that goal was .."To get the hell outta dodge ."

Zayn knew one fact Lennox didn't. They'd have to leave tonight, work more today and get away before any suspicions started.
Though they knew it'd be hard they had to do this if they'd ever wanted to have a life instead of dealing with deadbeat fathers and mothers stuck in so much depression they'd turned to the bottle. Knowing full well it'd drown the sorrows tonight of yesteryear inside knowing it was the dumbest thing to do thinking "to hell with that. " Waking up the next morning with a major hangover.

That never mattered to much both of them had a serious drinking problem the sweet, burning yet refreshing achacol slidding down their throats drowning feelings, emotions, pain and a mixture of hopelessness away that they felt each and every day. Their parents knew but didn't care about the posion they were pouring in their veins infact the whole MCcall family encouraged feeling like shit. Lennox eased the pain of everyday life.

After drinking and swimming in the local washes or ditches where the river ran durring early spring into mid summer. At the bonfire hosted by their bestfriend Kasey. The sun was high with barely any clouds hovering above, the beer and liquor was ice cold, tire swings attatched to nearby limbs on trees. Drunken fun after all tonight was the night to celebrate right? Wrong! There's nothin' further than the truth the two were in for a rude awakening. Durring their spree of fun the couple decided to Hijack Ty 's their twelfth grade friends tractor . Ty had known Lennox since birth .

I know uh oh right. Nah uh they were two seperate people who were bestfriends, never wanting to end their friendship. Ty was a genuine cowboy, who never took any girl for granted so he knew when to tell to backup so no feelings were developed on both parts. Running away on a tractor sounds pretty romantic especially on a moon light September sky with a touch of frost looming in the air. When their favorite song by Carrie Underwood came on the ipod Jesus, Take the wheel . The whole reason they were running away because they were running low on faith and the gasoline of love that furled any life.

Carefree and living life the couple planned on going into the Rodeo. "Heck who don't love the rodeo. Am I right?! The second the song started they sang along to the part where the song implied a crash. The tractors wheel caught on the edge of the ditch causing the tractor to tip. The next miniute Zayn was lying bruised and battered, Lennox was stretched out on the ground. Lying in a helpless heap on the ground not moving, not even a single breath from her chest.

Zayn saw her lying there alone, regret pushed to the surface of his mind instantly. Zayn crawled more like dragged himself over to her doing recessitations, mouth to mouth . She awoke only for a few seconds, enough time to tell her he loved her more anything in his life and couldn't bear to lose her on her dying breath she said "Wait for me, Don't move on I'm yours and only yours. " passing into an eternal unconnicous.

Startled by what she had just said and brokenhearted about his loss and knowing he was done for intirely emotionally, mentally and would soon be physically as soon as Lennox's family found out. Although the family loved him, they could and would never forgive him.

When their friends came looking for them because they had heard and seen the tractor blaze up. Calling paramedics and Zayn's mother and Lennox's family that rushed to Zayn's side when they saw the Wreckage, Amber's heart plunged into her stomach. From the looks of it only one of them cpqtould've survived. They found Zayn rocking back and forth on his heels holding Lennox's cold heavy body in his arms. He'd been there for hours starring down so his neck was craned in a downward postition. Still in shock, when paramedics tried prying Lennox from his lap with no avail. They dosed him with something to calm him down.

Zayn was in critical condition, At least seven ribs cracked, leg broken and arm broken, internal bleeding. He fell into a deep coma after a couple of surgeries, his heart stopped twice. He would never fully recover permanent damage had been done emotionally, mentally and physically. Only by then his memory came back to him surely tipping the tractor wasn't his fault he recalled a hooded man in the shawdows by the lake a the bang of a distant gunshot he didn't cause the tractor to tip it was the gunshot! !! But what wait surely Lennox wasn't bleeding so much because she hit the ground. His coma was starting to clear his head of what went down a hooded man stole the life from his fiancee' End of Memory
