Need Love

Chapter 24

As we got into his car, we sat there stalking in the parking lot talking about god knows what.

"Wow, its 12;00. We should go. Get you home safe." He said looking away from his watch.

"I-I don't have a home." I said tears coming upon.

It was true. I had no home. No place to call home.

"You can always stay at my place." He said.

"Oh, no no. I'm sure I'd bother you." I whispered looking at my hands.

"Haha, my house is quiet." He chuckled.

"Why?"

"Well, its not really actually. My parents argue a lot. My sister cries because of it. She has no one to play with but me, you know? Or her imaginary friends, or her Barbie Dolls. Its hell."

"Wow. Trust me your life is waaaayyy better than mine."

"Why you say that?" He asked concerned.

I shake my head. Why should I tell him. all he'll do is baby me. Or worse kick me out of his car, never talk to me again. I can't tell him. I can't ever tell anyone.

My heart pounded against my chest. I couldn't tell him. NO! I cannot.

Images of my mother past through my eyes. The car, the hospital. My father. Everything.

"Hey, hey." David coos. As he wipes my tears, I didn't even know that were falling.

He faced me.

"If you're going through something or anything, you know I'm here for you. Right?

"Get away from me." I yell as I open the car door and walk down the sidewalk. It was dark outside. So cold, I shivered. Tears rolled down my cheeks as I remembered. Remembered everything in the past. Luke. Everyone.

I felt headlights shine on me. I didn't dare to look back.

The car drove beside me.

"Julia, get in the car." David said.

"The fuck. No!" I yelled.

"C'mon Jules. Please, I'm sorry if i upset you." He apologized.

I ignored him, and kept walking. Even though I didn't know where I was or where i was going. See I didn't get out much.

"I'll follow you all around. All night, whatever it takes for you to get in this car."

"WHY!?" I scream looking at him.

"Why?" He questions.

"WHY DO YOU WANT ME TO COME WITH YOU. WHY CAN'T YOU LEAVE ME THE HELL ALONE!"

"Because," He looks into her eyes. "I care about you."

She laughs as if what he said was some type of joke.

"You know nothing about me. You don't care for me." I spat.

My face was wet. My eyes felt droopy. I just wanted to go back with Joseph. I wanted to be in his arms. Safely. I wanted to be with him. Maybe under the stars.

"I don't need to know your story to care for you. Please Julia. Please."

I sighed. Such a heavy sigh, yet shaky. I gave up. I went to the passenger side and opened the door.

"Please, I'm sorry Julia. Please forgive me for whatever I did."

I ignored him. I just stared straight ahead. Tears streamed down. We rode and I fell asleep.

********************************

I woke up in the morning. I totally blanked out for a second until I realized everything that happened the night before.

I didn't give David an address.....

I instantly awoke. The surroundings where different. The bed was white and the room was big.

A random little girl ran into the room and jumped on the bed.

She had light brown wavy hair that went to the middle of her back. She wore hello kitty pajamas and she had freckles on her nose. Just like David. They looked so alike, but I had to say she was so adorable.

"Are you my brother's Juliet?" She said with a bright smile, and her beautiful small squeaky voice.

"Haha, What?"

Take it I'm at Davids house.

"My brother, he's your Romeo?" She said.

She thought I was her brothers girlfriend.

"Oh my, no! We are just— Friends." I said giggling.

"Oh. Can you come play with me?" She said bouncing on the bed.

"Umm." I thought, smiling at the beautiful young girl.

"Pretty plleasseee." She dragged.

"Okay, Yes." I laughed.

"YES!" She grabbed my hand in her small ones.

We ran into her room across from I'm guessing the guess room, maybe?

As we entered her room, it was girly. Filled with ink and glitter all over her walls. Barbies on the floor.

"Lets play with my barbies. Lets have a picnic with all the barbies." She said i n excitement.

"Okay. I said as we dressed and did the barbies hairs.

After what felt like a long time in the game we repeated again and again, I grew tired.

"So what's your name beautiful?" I asked looking into her light brown eyes.

"Amber." She smiled.

"Aw, Amber how old are you?" I asked.

"I'm 6!" She yelled happily. I could tell she had a lisp.

"Aw, aren't you the cutest." I said as we continued playing.

"Amber, baby." Someone said that came into her room.

It was a women. I assumed to be their mother. She had light brown hair that was to the middle of her back. She had worn a lot of jewelry. I'm guessing Davids family is rich.

She looked at me.

"So, your the lovely girl I'm hearing about." She said as she walked over to me getting closer.

"Someone talks about me?" I smiled extending my hand out.

"Julia."

"I'm David's mother, Karen." She smiled back.

David then came through the door.

"Good morning, you guys. I take it you've met my mom." He said looking at me.

"Yes. She has. Don't be embarrassed." His mother said as she walked out laughing.

David just looked at me.

"Don't mind her." He said.

All I could do was laugh. His family was adorable and funny.

"Davy, You Juliet is so nice. I love her. She played with me!" Amber said.

"Oh, Davy?" I laughed at the nickname.

"Don't." He said as he raised his hand up.

All I did was laugh. I was really enjoying this.
