Spoilt? Me? (Watty awards 2011 VOTE)

Betrail and lies...

Short chapter this time lol ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

I waved goodbye to Marie as I watched her plane take flight. I stood by the window until I couldn't see the plane any longer. I had finally persuaded her to go to stay with her family, and even though she wouldn't accept any money, I had slipped a $1,000 and a couple of hundred into her bag.

When I finally found my car in the busy parking lot, It wouldn't start. I pushed my foot hard on the pedal but it didn't make a sound. I kicked the floor of my car, tears streaming down my face. I tried to stop myself but I kept on bursting into floods of tears. I wasn't sure why I was crying, I mean I hadn't kicked my foot that hard on the floor of my car. I guess it was everything. Corey, Maria, mum, johnny, me not having anywhere to live. It seemed like the only place, or thing, that was still ok, was my car. Now I'm sitting in it, it's completely broken and I'm in the middle of a crowded car park in an airport.

I'm in an airport. I have my credit card. Maybe I should take a trip somewhere? Should I? It would be so good to get away from all of this. I climbed out of my car and locked it. I watched as a girl roughly my age, walked across the parking lot with what was properly her boyfriend. What was I thinking? I can't just leave everyone I care about behind, while I brave it in some country alone.

I stepped back into my broken car, but it still wouldn't start. "Oh for gods sake! Just work okay?" I muttered angrily. I pressed on the pedal one last time... Yes! My car roared into life and gave a little shiver as if to say sorry.

I was at lease 800 miles from my house, maybe 750 from Alices, and 500 from the hotel. I was so tired I almost nodded off whilst driving so decided to get an early sleep in a motel. The bed was small and uncomfortable, but I was so exhausted I fell asleep almost immediately.

When I finally woke up, I payed the receptionist and got back into my cold car. I decided to wear my big, black duffle jacket. But my poor un-manicured fingers were almost frozen solid so I huddled by the car heater for proberly half an hour.

My blackberry buzzed for ages before I bothered to pick it up. As soon as I moved, all my body heat escaped me, and I shivered with the chill of January weather.

"Yes hello?" I said annoyed.

"Renée? Are you ok?" Alice said panicked.

"A bit cold, but yeah I'm ok. Alice, you sound stressed, what's going on?" I said, slightly nervous.

"OMG, I freaked out Renée! Where ARE you?" Alice rushed.

"Um... I'm not sure." I bit my lip, and looked around in the Motel parking lot for a sign or lamppost.

"But your not hurt?" Alice said. She was really starting to worry me.

"What? No! What ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?!" I said, very annoyed and quite scared.

"It's just... Your mum. She..." Alice said nervously.

"WHAT did my mum say?" I said through gritted teeth.

"Well she said.. And I totally didn't believe her by the way! She said you... Forced Marie to leave the house and you... Slapped your mum and made Marie cry." Alice informed me.

"I DID WHAT?" I fumed. Mum knows that's a lie.

"I know, I totally didn't believe her. Oh and she said you left the house. I guess that bits true." Alice laughed fakely.

"Hold on, ok?" I put the blackberry on hold and dialled my mums number. Alice could hear this conversation, so I hoped my mum would pick up.

"Yes hello?" my mum asked in her posh voice.

"Mum what have you been saying?" I asked harshly.

"I don't know what you're talking about." My mum said, and she coughed ever so slightly.

"You told everyone I slapped you, forced Marie to leave and then left the house." I repeated what Alice told me.

"Yes. Darling don't deny the facts." she said.

"Mum what are you saying?" I whispered in horror.

"I... Look Renée don't hurt me again, I'm sorry for what ever I did to you, I really am. Just tell me this. Is Marie ok? Is she safe?" mum said through broken sobs.

"Fine, now." I said through gritted teeth. I heard a loud beeping noise signalling the end of a call. I hoped mum was the one who disconnected the call, I really need to speak to Alice about this, she'd understand.

"Hello?" I asked uncertain.

"Renée!" Alice said down the phone.

"Alice. What you heard was a lie." I said through sobs of stress and sadness.

"You really DID hurt your mum didn't you?" she said, her voice raising with every word.

"No I-" I started in disbelief.

"What ever Renée. Stay away from me and my family. And stay away from johnny, you don't deserve him." she spat before ending the call.

I screamed in devastation. Tears poured down my hot cheeks, my black eye make up painting my cheeks grey. "You can't... You can't leave me..." I whispered. I clutched my stomach. My heart was burning from the pain and my throat swelled.

"You can't leave me."
