starting over

chapter 33 ~ end

~one year later~

"hey ans it's been a whole year now, i still miss you like fuck but i know your really safe now away from them i just wish you were here so I could hear you laugh or smile or even scold me for being a perv" I chuckle at that remembering everytime she did just that.
I stand and talk to her for a while longer telling her about the two charities i made in honour of her one for support in emotional abuse and one for support in depression, selfharm and suicide attempts and affects on other people involved i didnt expect it to get too big but it really did, her story hit the world hard and the charities got lots of donations and stuff i was interviewed a few times and got to finally meet her friends from ireland that came here for her funeral they were amazing they really loved her and it broke me even more when they all broke down and hugged eachother when i said my eulogy they all said there's together telling a few funny stories about her that made me miss her even more her other family was banned from the funeral but it was still packed even my family showed up to support me and we're now on good terms I've fully forgiven them amd see them every weekend but during the week i do work for the charity which is one of the biggest in the world right now.
"jude?" I hear a man ask me i turn to see a man about my age standing at the end if the path he was my height and had blonde messy hair with deep blue eyes.
"yeah? Can I help you?" i didnt recognise him from anywhere but i had met alot of new people in the past year.
"sorry you probably think I'm some sort of stalker but i knew her, Annie, i couldnt make it to the funeral and felt bad so I thought I'd visit her on her anniversary"
"how did you know her?"
"in ireland we went to school together, we dated for a while but then she moved away, I'm James by the way"
"oh, well nice to meet you"
"is it true about her parents?" he asked me i look into his eyes and notice he looks sad while looking at the ground.
"yeah, do you want some time alone here?"
"if you don't mind or i cant until your gone"
"no its ok I've gotta get going anyway"
"ok well see ya later jude"
"you too James" I smile at him as i walk away and when i reach my car i look back and see tears rolling down his cheeks as he mutters some words i cant hear to her, it wasn't fair that she was gone but i knew it was best to do something to raise awareness about her story and everything she went through, sighing i climb into my car and drive away hoping that I'll see her someday again.

A/N
I know it's short and it isn't the perfect ending but it's how it ended and i know it's really unexpected too but remember fairytales don't happen in real life and this is what really happens to some people so please just remember this when your expecting everything to go well and for you to marry your princess/prince charming because the chances of that happening are slim because they don't always like you back or they want someone else or you don't realise how good they are for you.
