I hate this damn town. (Night in the woods fanfict)

Chapter 2 responsibilities

Bea POV: 

Ugh. I can't believe SHE'S unhappy. They don't even know what struggles actually mean. This is stupid. Ok ok I need to cam down. It's quiet maybe everyone went home. Let's hope so. I get out of the closet get my bag and empty my locker witch is mostly just photos of me and Mae, some stuff we did in arts and craft and a friendship bracelet. I don't throw them away altho I wish I did. I can't just throw years of friendship away. I must talk to her, but for now il just wait till the graduation party. 

Since school is officially over I can dress however I want and since it's a special occasion I take my long black dress, some fishnets, a pair of Demonias and head downstairs. The first thing I see are some bills on the table. I take a look at them and see that we would loose our house if we didn't pay them soon. Oh god. I feel sick. Where is dad? Of course he was in his room. He said he knows about them but he feels so bad, he can't get out of bed. I obviously get angry. We could loose our house. But I know that regardless of what I say he will not do anything about them. So I did the most responsible thing an 18 year old could do and I took over the family business. 

And that's how I lost the one and only chance to talk to Mae and sort things out.

Summer officially started. Everyone was going to parties, getting drunk, going out and I was at my desk waiting for a client all day. Now, I'm at my desk all day why can't I send her an e-mail? It's because I'm scared. I'm scared that I may be bothering her, or interrupting her or I don't know?? Something?? I mean she's going to collage they must prepare tons of summer work or whatever. Why would she want to talk to me anyway.

3rd person POV:

It's been a couple of weeks and none of them said anything both of them convinced that the other was busy or just not in the mood. Bea was exhausted and could not catch a break, meanwhile Mae was stressing about collage and her summer work. Nothing was looking up just going down like in a hole without a bottom.

Bea was constantly thinking of Mae. One day when her and her father were eating breakfast, Bea seemed off. "Whats wrong honey? Got something on your mind?" "Oh you know just running the family business and paying off the bills." " I-I'm sorry Bea.." "... and Mae" "Mae Borowski?" "Who else?" "..Do you think she may be a distraction..?" Then it clicked. Mae wasn't coming back. If they wanted to she would've done it by now. He was right. For once in his life, that old bastard was right. "Excuse me I need to do something" Bea got up from the table ran o her room and got the pictures, bracelet and everything that was related to Mae, took her cigarette lighter and went in the woods. There she placed her and Mae's stuff and set them on fire. Wow how dramatic she thought to herself watching her memories burning. She shed many tears but she stopped thinking, about it and eventually moved on working and paying the bills.

Mae POV:

After seeing Bea disappear and everyone fading from the cafeteria intent to the bathroom to wipe of my tears. Tonight was the graduation party..yay..I got my backpack from my locker and emptied it. Shoving things in my backpack was easy until I found something made out of fabric. It was Bea's shirt! A black T-shirt with Arctic Monkeys written in white in the front...it smelled like her.. I wanted to give it to her today because she left it at my house after our last sleepover but I guess I forgot and now it was too late. Ok I guess I'll keep it. God I messed up..but it was fine! Fine fine fine I'll talk to her at the party. BIG DEAL. We've ha fights before..not this serious but still. 

As I arrive in my usual large jeans, t shirt and flannel I expect to see Bea in her long black dress and boots but she's not here. A slow dance starts to play and Gregg has found himself some tall nerd with an amazing ass. How did he pull that guy? I barely had my first kiss a few years ago. Eh It doesn't matter. My dude's happy and thats really good! 

Later Gregg introduced me to the tall nerd, his name is Angus and him and Gregg are complete opposites and somehow going out. My God these bitches gay. Good for them. Good for them. I mean who am I to judge I'm pansexual myself. But my only thought is Bea. Where is she? We made plans to com here y'know? She can't just drop me here without even solving our issue! 

I've been there for 4 hours so I decide to leave. Gregg's safe with Angus, I trust them. But Bea didn't come with I guess it disappointed me.

A few weeks later.

I'm leaving for collage soon and I've done half of the summer work. I decided to take a walk through the woods to clear my mind, listen to some music. As I approach a segment with is closer to Bea's house I find myself running towards it. I wanted to apologise or at least see her. But as I'm running I see a light with turns out to be... A FIRE! WHAT THE HELL?! As I look closer I find that...it's Bea's stuff! Stuff...I gave her or that we made together. I feel myself welling up. Those years meant nothing to her? Why does this hurt so much? I lost friends before, even greater ones, but there's something about Bea witch makes her special. I guess that's the end. I'll finish my summer work, pack my stuff and move on with my life with or without Bea...
