Abbie
To say I was nervous would be a understatement, Im fucking terrified. After reading that message today, every ounce of sympathy I had for my mother has vanished. 5 months. 5 months where she didn't give a single fuck how I was doing, or where I was. As soon as I see a small hint of happiness seeping in she grabs it and ruins it. I am drowning again, and Seb is keeping me over the water. He's here, next to me. I'm not alone in this anymore, and that's a feeling i'm not used too but I know it's one that I don't want to live without ever again. I walk up to my door, knocking with the hand that isn't holding Sebs. He's next to me, and he looks scary. Rage fills the eyes that usually look at me with absolute softness, yet his hand remains firmly on mine. The door opens and it's my mother. I breathe in as i look at her face, she hates me. I can see it clearly now, my mother despises me. She looks at me up and down, and than looks towards Seb. She laughs and opens the door for us to come in. As we walk in he leans down and whispers in my ear,
"Your the strongest one, sunflower. Don't let them get to you" and than he places a kiss on my cheek. His words bring something out in me, a streak I didn't know existed until I followed my mother into the kitchen. And I said everything.
"Why would you send me that?" I say, as she turns around fast.
"Everything I said was true" She replies, my father walking into the kitchen. He looks at Seb for a second, confused and then shrugs his shoulders and stands next to my mom.
"Do you think your the only ones grieving? Do you actually think that none of this has hurt me?" I raise my voice, causing her to step back.
"How do you think I feel!" She shouts, loud. My eyes swell with tears and I blink them away.
"I have to see her face in you everyday, the miserable twin. She was the happy one, the one everyone loved. YOU lived in her shadow and then you fucking killed her" Seb grabs my shoulders at her words and my hand reaches my mouth.
"Elaine-" My father says grabbing her arm,
"Don't touch me, Micheal. I'm saying what everyone is thinking. If you knew better you would stay away, Sebastian" She points at Seb and he immediately tucks me behind him, as he moves infront of me. How does she know his name?
"How do you know my name?" He says, and she laughs.
"Everyone knows about your dead drug addict mother, now your slumming around with my daughter. Have you taken after your mother?" Oh my god. Anger fills me at her words. I move from behind Seb as he stands still in shock at what she said.
"How fucking dare you!" I shout.
"He has taken more care of me in the last days that I've known him than you have my whole life, don't you dare speak about him like that. God what is wrong with you?" My words must have hit her somewhere as she's quiet for a second. Sebs hand grabs mine and squeezes it, I look up to him and he mouths. thank you. I nod.
"Your daughter is amazing," He says, both my parents now looking at him.
"She's beautiful, strong. The kindest person i've ever met, shes selfless and she's likeable. I haven't met one person that dislikes her. My mother was a drug addict, but she loved me in her own way. She would never speak to me the way you speak to your daughter sober, And she would stick up for me unlike you do, Micheal. Im going to say this once and I mean it, Speak about my mother or Abbie like that again and I will have no problem beating your husband black and fucking blue, and for you Elaine, I will never hurt a woman but trust me when I say god wont be able to save you" His words are thick, and scare both my mother and father. He turns to me and says,
"Pack a bag. Your with me from now on." What?
"Seb,"
"Just bring stuff you need, i'll buy you new clothes and books. Is that okay?" His soft tone confuses my parents as he talks to me and I nod. Running up stairs i grab a bag and place in everything I believe i need. I can't believe this is happening, I fill the bag with useless things as I realise I own nothing of any value to me apart from the necklace I wear and as i'm walking out i see her room. I stand there for a while, looking at it. She wouldn't believe how things are now, she'd hate it. I also wonder if this is the last time i'll see her bedroom, this is the last bit of life i have from her and it's in a house surrounded by phycopaths. I walk downstairs, seb and my parents arguing becomes muffled the further I walk down. My head hurts, it's pounding. I drop my bag and place a hand to my head,
"Seb" I say and the arguing stops. That's when the darkness engulfs me and i know this isn't going to stop anytime soon.
"You know how mom is, dad prefers you though" Addy says her hair flowing from the window being open.
"I guess but he's not obvious about it, mom makes it very clear how she feels about you " I reply, my eyes on the road. They are vert busy today, i think a festival is happening or something
"Well," She says grabbing my hand,
"We love eachother the same so, who gives a shit about them right?" I turn my head away for a second and look at her.
"Right" I reply, I turn back and see a car headed towards adeline's side of the car through the corner of my eye.
"SHIT," I shout, attempting to swerve. Bang. The car flips over 360 degrees, I move around in the car. A sharp object slicing through my back as I turn to see Adeline. Her head won't stop bleeding,
"Abs?" She strangled out.
