Forever Alone

Chapter 8 The Worst Easter Ever

Today was Easter. So Bella had no school today. Bella was going to be able to just relax and not worry about Calum and Luke.

Bella and Michael's parents have been fighting ever since they got to the new house. There's never a second they are not screaming back and forth with each other about something stupid. What would happen if they got a divorce? What would happen to her and Mikey?

Whatever that wasn't going to happen. Or at least Bella prayed it wouldn't.

Her bright blue eyes struggled to open. She was blinded by the bright light. Michael must have already woken up. She looked at her phone and realized that it was only 8:00. He never wakes up this early when they don't have school.

Bella slowly got herself out of Mikey's bed and realized he wasn't in his bedroom.

She decided to check downstairs. She was so fucking tired and tripped on each step. When she finally reached the living room she saw no Michael.

She explored the whole house and Michael was nowhere. He must have went out.

After about 20 minutes Michael arrived back at the house. The old blue car pulled into the hideous driveway. Bella flew out of the house in a t-shirt and shorts.

Michael leaned in and kissed her. He squeezed her as hard as he could. Every time he hugged her tight she felt that all her broken pieces were sticking back together.

When he finally pulled his lips away and loosened his grip on her waist, he pulled a tiny box out of a bag.

"Happy Easter!" He smiled and popped open the box with his finger. A necklace lay in the box. It was absolutely beautiful. It was a silver heart with tiny gems going around it. She fell in love with it the second she saw it just like she fell in love with Michael.

"It's fucking beautiful babe!" Bella cried and gave Michael a long hug. This was going to be the best day ever.

Michael and Bella let go of each other and went back into the house. Bella slipped on her necklace and prayed that no one would see it later.

What they didn't know is that Calum witnessed everything. Bella and Michael kissing and the necklace. Bella was lucky she didn't have school today because when she comes back everyone will know.

Every holiday the family came to their house. Bella hates her family at times. Every time they glared at her she felt they were judging her. The guy she hates the most in her family was her younger cousin Ashton.

Ashton is 10 years old. He tells on Bella every chance he gets. He's one of those annoying kids who can't keep a secret for their life. If he hears or sees something he needs to tell everybody. He also tells his parents everything. Ashton was the child every parent wants and every kid hates.

Bella was not looking forward to seeing Ashton. She knew that he would make her Easter suck. Bella tried to be positive but she already knew from experience. She just needed to be careful.

She cleaned up her house and made food for the family. They were going to arrive any minute.

"Hello!" Bella greeted all her family members. When everyone finally arrived she went back in the kitchen to finish up dinner. They were going to have ham, turkey, and a bunch of stuff that the rest of the family brought.

"Hey babe. It smells great in here." Michael whispered in Bella's ear. She smiled. Bella was done making food and everyone was talking so she decided to go spend some time with Mikey.

They walked upstairs while scanning the living room to make sure no one was watching then.

What they didn't know is that Ashton was right behind them.

Ashton followed them upstairs and stayed at the door when they went in Michael's room.

Through a small crack in the door Ashton could see everything they did.

Michael and Bella sat down on the bed and stared into each others eyes. Michael leaned in for a kiss but before their lips even touched Ashton screamed from outside the door.

Bella and Mikey turned towards the door and saw Ashton's brownish eyes staring through the tiny hole. Before they could try to persuade him not to tell anybody he was gone.

"Holy shit. Ashton is going to tell everybody downstairs." Bella panicked. Bella and Michael ran downstairs but they were to late.

"Why are Bella and Michael kissing upstairs in Michael's room!" Ashton questioned their parents.

Bella's Mom freaked out. "Get your nasty child away from Bella!" Her mom screamed at Michael's father. They both grabbed their children and dragged them upstairs. They all sat down in the parents room.

"What the fuck is happening behind our backs!" Michael's father screamed. Bella's mom sat their and didn't say a word. She just looked at Bella and Michael. She rolled her eyes in disgust when she looked at Michael.

"Dad nothing is going on everything is fine." Michael tried to argue with his Dad.

"How dare you lie to me everything is not fucking fine! I can't handle this anymore! You guys can not be together we are getting a divorce and you guys will never see each other again!" Michael's Dad screamed as Bella's Mom began to cry.

Bella's eyes filled with tears as she tried to grasp the fact that she will not be able to see Michael again. She couldn't believe this. Michael eyes filled up with tears to as his heart broke into small pieces. Ashton just ruined their lives.

What a happy fucking Easter! As tears escaped Bella's eyes and rolled down her face she grabbed her necklace and held it tight.

She wanted to just cuddle up in Michael's muscular arms but she already knew that was never going to happen again.
