I Trust You

At The End, It's You.

"The pain I feel sometimes, well it feels unbearable, but sometimes it feels like nothing...and somehow feeling nothing is even worse"

"It's sad to hear that you've gotten so used to the pain that you're used to it now, you shouldn't be"

"I'm not completely used to it like you think, the absence of them is still painful sometimes, but I remember what you said last time and it makes it hurt less"

"What I said last time?"

"The cure for pain is the pain, I know the pain will fade, just like the love, eventually it will go away, and that's okay, it'll all be okay"

Erin's POV:

I was sitting in the back of the car looking out the window. It turns out Mum and Dad wanted to take all three of us out to dinner as they had a surprise, I have no idea what it is but I doubt it'll be good. Especially if my Dad arranged it...

It was quiet most of the trip to the restaurant, the only sound coming from the engine and the radio playing along with the raindrops hitting against the window.

Winter. It's always freezing but it seems the weather becomes more bipolar and can't decide between snow, hail, wind and rain each day so it instead switches up as the day goes on.

Cody and Toby are staring at me. I can feel their eyes burning a hole into the side of my head, but I know if I turn to look at them they'll pretend they weren't. They're bad liars.

Liars. Huh. Funny.

I shouldn't talk about lying when I do it on the daily now should I? That would make me a hypocrite I guess. I don't lie to hurt those around me, but I realise it's the consequence of my performances each day. I lie to distract my heart. I'll do anything to distract it from missing them. From missing him.

We'd pulled up to the restaurant and walked inside. It was busy. Busier than normal too, Mum had always hated crowds so I was surprised when she walked in the restaurant with a smile on her face as we all followed, looking like little ducklings running after her.

Eventually we got ourselves a table in the corner of the room, Mum and Dad on one side, Cody and Toby on the other and myself sat at the end. We ordered food and drinks pretty quickly before the whole table went quiet...that is until Dad decided to annoy Mum again.

Erin's Mum: "Wesley I swear to god! I won't hesitate to smack you!"

Erin's Dad: "Wow the betrayal, that's elder abuse that love, I could get you done for that" he said matter of factly, a proud smile on his face whilst my Mum rolled her eyes.

Erin's Mum: "I'm literally older than you, shut up ugly"

Erin's Dad: "Ugly?! Ugly where? Oh my gosh did you infect me?!" he said faking a heart attack and dramatically fake crying.

Erin's Mum: "Why are you my husband again?"

Erin's Dad: "Because of my big p-" he said smirking before earning a slap on the arm from my Mum causing him to cut himself off and rub his sore arm.
