Another love

Chapter One

Waking up to the sound of your mom kicking your dad out is not how I imagined I'd start my senior year but here we are. It's normal for my mom to throw a temper tantrum, my dad handles them pretty well but after these last few months they have been arguing about a bigger inconvenience in their lives and it's me. The thing about it is, that life has been very rough for me so it's been harder for them, or at least that's what they say, but they didn't lose the love of their life. I did.

"Joesph! Get the fuck out," my moms screams fill the house as I pull myself out of bed getting dressed and ready as fast as I could, skipping breakfast just to leave before she stopped me.

"Erin where are you going," her words slurring together

"To school, I think you should drink some water," I spat, grabbing the door handle when a glass came crashing into the wall next to me, leaving pieces of glass covering the floor.

"what the fuck is your problem," I turn to face her, she was smiling, I quickly made my escape before she threw another glass.

I walk through the halls heading to my first hour class walking in right as the bell rang. Ms. Carmichaels. I sat in my seat feeling her eyes burn right through me. Ignore her and continue to write notes. It was as if I was the most interesting thing she could focus on, as if I was a relic of some kind. Worth something to her now, too bad it was too late for that.

"Erin," her voice burning my ears, Ignore her, "Erin, you're bleeding,"

"I'm fine, Lyliah," I continued to take note.

I hurry through the halls, I push the bathroom door open. I look down. Fuck. I walk into a stall, pulling my jeans down just enough to see the wound. I grabbed some toilet paper placing it on top to stop any further bleeding. Pulling my jeans back up. I head back through the halls.

"Erin," her voice makes me freeze in my tracks. I had to stop myself from turning around and going back to her, she wasn't there. I took a step forward trying to escape what was going to happen. I walked away trying to catch my breathe and calm myself down.

"Erin?" her voice rang out to me catching me off guard, she always had that effect on me.

"You're not here bee, go away," I cover my ears with my hands trying to walk away from her.

"Erin?" her voice rang through my ears like a symphony. I closed my eyes falling to the floor. my breathing was rapid, I moved limply on the waxed floor of the hallway. this is embarrassing, not here. I tried to pull myself off the cold ground, failing and smacking my head on the ground the memories consumed my consciousness.

"Put me down," she giggled as I lifted her up and spun us around. Her yellow dress puffed up as I placed her down gently. She doesn't skip a beat and places her lips on mine, making my whole body light up, I pull her in closer. She pulls herself away from me.

"This isn't right, is it?" her smile faded

"What do you mean?" I lift her face up so we're eye to eye again.

"This isn't right," she whispers, turning her head "we're not supposed to be here," I turn my head to look at what she is. There is a smoking car in the distance, I turn to her but she vanished. I knew this all too well but I still went to find her.

"Bee?" I called out, but no answer

"Bee?" I called out again, as I walked up to the smoking car, knowing that any second it was going to be the worst. I see a limp bloody hand displayed outside of the passenger side window, I didn't even need to get closer to know who the hand belonged to. I just fell to my knees, my head hanging low. That's when I felt her besides me again, she was stroking my hair just as she used to.
