"God, stood me up. And I don't know why..."
Aidan's Pov:
A few days had passed, it was now winter break and we wouldn't be going back until January 8th. Y/n surprisingly had kept her promise I guess you could call it and seemed to calm down. But she seemed more sad then usual.
I had offered her my room but she said no, instead she continued to sleep on the couch. I worried though, because ever since the first day of break she's barely eaten and slept.
She was falling apart and I didn't know why, I didn't want her ending up like me or anyone I've known with a bad life experience so far. Going over to her by the couch she didn't move, or look at me.
"Hey.." I started, still nothing. "Y/n talk to me, it's Aidan." I raised my voice a little to get her attention, I got it slightly with her moving her head towards me a little.
When she did her eyes were almost blood shot red, and dried tear stains on her cheeks. "Leave me alone.." she mumbled turning away again, I rolled my eyes as if a simple leave me alone would make me go away.
"You know what! Fine! Want to know what's so fucking important about me that you have to sit there, here!" She snapped tossing her phone on the floor in front of me and left the room.
"Y- great.." I looked down at the floor and picked her phone up, should I really go in to it? Maybe it has the answer as to why she was in a mood. I swiped up and unlocked it seeing she had left it on the Imessages, and a specific person.
Gen:
You ok? We haven't talked in a bit
This is Genises mother, and the reason she hasn't answered is because she took the car without permission and got in to an accident.
All because you don't know how to handle yourself, because of you our daughter might not make it. So respectfully never talk her again and get rid of this number.

"Shit, Y/n.." I got up going to room to room, "Aidan get the hell out of my room!" Yelled Madison, I rolled my eyes slamming the door going to the next. The only one I hadn't checked was mine, I saw the door to my room cracked open.
I slowly went in seeing Y/n sitting at the edge of my bed with her knees being held to her chest while she covered her face slightly with them.
I came over to her and sat near her, not next to her, or close. "It wasn't your fault.. You didn't know this would happen-" I tried comforting her, but she shook her head "I just had to come here, if I hadn't she would be ok. We could still talk but all because I cant handle a little situa-" I stopped her.
"A little? That isn't a little situation Y/n! You know that, what she did for you to be safe here away from what's been happening to you."
She smiled in almost a sarcastic way, "Everywhere I go something happens.. whether it's to me or other people, that's it. I'm a curse, I'm a fucking jinx Aidan. I feel like I'm repeating life almost everyday because shit does what it wants-" she ranted on.
I looked at her after she had gotten quiet, "You're not a jinx, you're not a curse. Understand?" She nodded slightly and opened her mouth about to say something, "You're right.. I'm niether, it's just God standing me up in life.." she started to tear up.
God stood her up
God stood me up
God stood us all up in life
At one point in our lives even if it hasn't come yet, he'll do it
I crawled over to her now next to her, giving her the most comfort I could without making her feel awkward or scared. We sat in silence, well for the most part until the others started arguing about something stupid downstairs.
I started to feel her pinky wrap around mine, I could tell she was hesitant about it. I looked down at our hands and wrapped mine around hers and looked back up at her smiling a little, "It's ok.. I promise.." I said quietly.
She nodded and slowly put her head on my shoulder, all I could do was stare at our intertwined pinky's. I didn't actually think she would let me be there for her or trust me, I can barely trust other people let alone myself.
I laid my head on hers now and to my surprise she didn't freak out, but that was good. She was getting back to herself again.
"You're the first person to care about me.." she mumbled loud enough for me to hear. I lifted my head to look at her who was still in the same position, "What about your friend?" I asked.
She nodded, "I can tell that she was pretending, she has other friends other then me. But me.. I gave up trying to be friends with anyone-" she sat up pulling her hand away from me and looking down at her hands.
"I never had friends, honestly didn't care if I had them or not." I looked at her, who looked back at me.
"How come? I mean yeah at first you seem like a dick but getting to know you, you're really nice." I never thought that someone would say that about me, I smiled.
"When people found out I was getting beat almost everyday by my uncle I wanted nothing to do with people, I tried to shut the world out." My throat started to hurt from the cry I was holding in and eyes watering.
"What about your mom or dad?" She asked, it took me a mintue to form a sentence.
"Dad I never knew and don't want to know, mom she packed her stuff one day and dissapeared 2 years ago.." I started to pick at the skin on my finger nails then stopped.
"But I'm not worrying about that, I'd rather worry about you. Ok?" I got up looking down at her. "Ok.." she said getting up as well. "If you need anything just call for me.." I smiled leaving the room and went back downstairs.
