See You Tomorrow (Boy Best Friend)

Chapter 6

Cruz's POV

Since the fight, the football team hates me and the cheerleaders hate winafried but we didn't really care. I got home one night and into another fight with my mom.
It was all worse when I got home.

"You never gave a shit about me! All you do is take money from me and use me as some verbal punching bag while you let your boyfriends beat the shit outta me!"

"That's not true! Who puts a roof over your head or gets you food!" She yelled

"Me! You take my money, sell my shit mom! When I got a job at 14 tell me where did my fuckin money go mom!" I yelled and that's when she started the manipulative fake crying. "You're killing me, don't you care? you're gonna give me-"

"I care as much as you cared about me growing up. I was a kid mom. I didn't get a childhood because you took that from me! You took everything away and couldn't have cared less if I drowned!"

"I tried.. I did I tried my best" She cried

"Really where were you on my 6th birthday? You were getting drunk at a bar bringing home another sleazebag. Or what about when I was 10? You left me for a week wondering what I did wrong?... it took me 15 years till I realized it wasn't my fault....it was yours"

"So what I made a couple fuckin mistakes what mother dosent make mistkes!" She yells

"But you sure as hell don't fix them! You don't even try...You let this asshole use me as his fuckin ash tray you don't remeber my birthdays you cant even remember to pick me up from school im surprised you even remember my name!" she had no response.

"I just wanted a mom who was gonna be there for me. You know how fucked up it felt when I watched the other kids get to run up to there moms after schools. I wanted that...but instead I got to walk home sun or snow wondering if your gonna be home after school or weather your gonna be drunk or not with your next boyfriend"

"You know what, you weren't exactly child of the year either! if you want to victimize yourself fine! let me help you then.. you were my biggest mistake that I wish I never had." She told me.

"You know what mom your wish may come sooner than you think" I told her walking away.

I locked my windows cause I didn't want Winnie around I just wanted to be by myself. She knocked at the window but I just yelled go away but by then she was already back at her car. Around 1 in the morning I got a call from Winnie. I thought it was her just wanting to talk so I didn't answer she called me again and I let it go again. I went to school and didn't see her and texted 'where are you' no response. I texted her again 'hey you missed it Tyler and Bryan got in a fight in the middle of class!' And nothing. After school I went home and realized there was an old gross slushie in front of my window but it was old. I decided to drive to her house but when I was not even halfway there her mom called me.

Winnies POV

School was crappy as always but something again was off about Cruz as always. I would go to check on him but the curtains were always closed now. No text no calls nothing. I even knocked on the window leaving him a slushie. I went back the next day and it was still under his window. That night I got bored and started driving down the street because of course I wanted a slushie and a few snacks. I was on my way back home when at an intersection the light turned green I double checked before I went but then all of a sudden it was lights out. I remember bits of it like the pieces of glass shattering and the car flipping and being upside down in the seat. After a bit I heard ringing in my ears and felt blood dripping down. I reached for my shattered phone and it accidentally called Cruz which I was hoping would answer but nothing. I could hear an ambulance and I started loosing consciousness again. I woke up in the hospital with my mom there.
