Thanks so much for the encouraging words from the last chapter. I am still healing from a broken heart but I'm okay :) You all are so sweet and I appreciate the love so much! So thank you!

*I would take a deep breath before reading this chapter.*

Please don't hate me. Haha

Chapter 40

"It's probably what's best for you
I only want the best for you
And if I'm not the best then you're stuck
I tried to sever ties and I ended up with wounds to bind
Like you're pouring salt in my cuts" - Fix a heart - Demi Lovato


We all have bad days. Some are worse than others but in all everyone has a bad day every once in a while.

The saying: "It's a bad day, not a bad life" is effective in ways but I can vouch that it's not as easy to believe in the moments when your life feels like it's crashing down.

That's how today was for me.

As I lay in the fetal position in my bed, swarmed but the warmth of the covers and try to hold in the sobs that are trying to breath through. I realize that even though today was a bad day, it's hard to believe that things are going to get better soon.

In all honesty, I don't think it will be okay for a while. I'll try to act like it will be, but deep down I know that it won't be.

And the worse part is, I won't have that one person to comfort me and to tell me everything will be okay. Because that person is gone or will be gone. And that's what's causing this pain, it was too good to be true and I was stupid to believe that I would end up like a fairytale.

Now here I am: broken, sad, scared.

12 hours earlier

My alarm went off for the third time this morning but like the other two times I slammed my hand down on the snooze button.

Snuggling back in my cocoon of blankets, I drifted back off to sleep with the sound of rain hitting my windows and roof.

"Zoe Taylor! If you don't get your butt up this instant then you're grounded!" My mom yelled minutes later as she stormed into my room.

I bolted up and looked at the time which read 7:30 a.m.

Damn it! I'm going to be late for school.

I rubbed the sleep out of my eyes as my mom continued to glare at me from my door.

"I heard your alarm go off like three times and even Logan has been here to check on you. Why are you still in bed missy?" She had her hands on her hips and I noticed she was in full on mom mode.

"I'm sorry! I guess I just over slept," I said still trying to fully wake up. "I didn't sleep good last night."

"Well you better hurry up because you have 10 minutes before you are late for school!"

She slams the door as she walks out and I groan as I make myself get out of bed.

It was raining; no scratch that it was pouring. It was like the bottom had dropped out and rain was pouring furiously from the sky.

Not to mention it was a Monday after all.

Looks like it's going to be a bun on top of my head kind of day.

I threw on some leggings and an oversized T-shirt which so happens to be one of Logan's he left here.

It's not what you think. He just brought a change a clothes to change into one day and accidentally left it at my house. I washed it for him and meant to give it back but I forgot.
