Chapter 13

*BANG BANG BANG* The door is slammed on with fists.

I've never had such a good sleep in my life until it was ruined. Waking up, I expected to feel Skyler holding me, but instead, I felt no presence near me. He could've gone out to run errands. I thought to myself while slowly opening my eyes to adjust to the sunlight.

I sat up quickly in an obnoxious panic when I realized that everything of Skyler's was gone. My suitcase is fully packed and the bathroom is completely empty. I look over to his bed to see it made perfectly. There was no sign he was here whatsoever as if he was a ghost.

The banging continues and I hope that it's him as I make my way to the door. I'm disappointed quickly.

"Quinn! We have to go now! It's an emergency leave!"

"We don't leave till 4 pm. And please tell me you've seen Skyler."

"No! That one gang member kid from our school and a man were both found dead on the sand! They're making us leave early, do you have your stuff packed?" He peeps his head into my room and sees the same scene I saw when I first woke up. "What the hell? He just up and left us?"

"Me." I corrected him, putting my hands on my face and dragging them down as the realization of it all created a pit in my stomach. "He up and left me."

"That son of a bitch. At least you didn't let him have his way with you." I look up at him with teary eyes and he reads the room quickly. He pulls me in and embraces me tightly as more tears flow and dampen his shirt. "It'll be okay, hermanito. It'll hurt for a while, but you will rise again"

His voice was as soft as a whisper. I felt played. "I'm so fucking stupid. He never changed, he was playing the long game. And I fucking trusted him!"

"We don't know what his motives were. You can't blame yourself or anyone until you find real reasons. Let me tell you something." He sits on my bed and takes my hands into his. I've never seen him be so serious before. "Your heart is not broken, okay? From a man speaking on another man, the look in his eyes every time he looked at you screamed love. I won't lie to you HarleQuinn. He showed no sign of malicious intent when I spoke with him. What do you know about him? Not shit really. So you can't rule out the possibility that he may be dealing with issues of anything of the sort. If you are meant to be, you will fucking be okay?"

He wipes my tears from my eyes which threaten to keep falling. "Okay." I sniffle.

"I will give you a few minutes to collect yourself, then we will get on the bus to the airport together. I won't say anything to the others because it isn't their business."

He gently closes the door behind him leaving me to finish wailing and hyperventilating. I search deeper in my luggage for the box with my amulet and it seems to be hidden under my clothes. I open it and there's a note. Sitting directly on top of my necklace.

It reads: My gorgeous baby, I love you. I know you have a lot of questions, but they will all be answered in due time. I promised to be yours forever, and I'm not breaking that promise. I never asked you to be my girlfriend because it's not the best time for you. My wish is for you to live your life and have fun with it. I know you'll go out with other guys when you're in college, hell, maybe even girls too. But I will never hold anything like that against you because of the state I have left you in. Please know that my heart aches too and I miss you more than ever and will for a very long while. I'm breaking rules doing this but you're my love and I owe this to you: I'm not 18. I'm turning 20 in two months but I graduated High School 3 years ago. And you asked me my birth name, it's Andrés A. Muñoz. Mattías knows who I am but I trust you will keep this to yourself, if not, then it's on me. I love you forever, mi ángel.
