     I was finally able to get a hold of myself and wipe my tears off. I was pissed at Jess for stabbing me in the back. Yet, I was disappointed in myself for acting childish.

     To be honest, I was mad and couldn't control my anger towards her so it just came out.

      I tried to get a hold of Mitch to explain myself for once. I know Jess only told Leanne and Scarlet so I wasn't that mad a vigorous with her. I just knew they would tell him. I called Matt for the third time deciding to hang up and not sound desperate. But that's the thing, She is desperate!

     I want to talk to him and apologize to the poor guy. A rumbling was heard on my phone and my eyes dart to it. "Hello?" She questions.

     "Hey." I heard the boy respond and I sigh in relief. "Thought you died" She mumbled quietly trying to not start an argument right away. There was no response and she decided to continue either way. 

     "What did you hear?" I ask hoping that he doesn't know and it's all a trap. "Shit" He says not being a bit hesitant. I close my eyes fighting the tears that were gathering around the rim f my eyes. "Yeah" I whispered through the phone. I feel as if I shouldn't talk until he yells at me so I don't and so does he.

     We stay quiet on the phone for a while. Neither one of us daring to speak. I felt the tension even though we weren't close by and it hurt. "Tell me an excuse or say it's a lie." He whispered and I couldn't help but smile at the fact that he doesn't believe them fully but she frowns because she has to break the news. "Where are you?" I ask silently.

     "Home."

     "Can you send me an address? I'd rather talk to you in person"

     "So it is?" The softness in his voice was no longer there and she pinched he arm to distract her. "Matt, I don't want to argue on the phone-" I was cut off by a beep and my phone lit up telling me he hung up. My tears were freely falling and I didn't care anymore. "damn it Rose!" I yelled at out loud.

     "You're a failure! So STUPID! You don't have any friends! You're ALL ALONE!" I cried. The worst thing about all of this is that I has to lie to my family and say that it's all going swell because I don't want them to worry.  I have no shoulder to cry on and it hurt. She wiped off the tears and drove home rolling down the window hoping the air would slowly take the redness away from her eyes after crying.

     I arrived home and checked my appearance before I entered the loud house. I saw my family sitting at the table giving me a smile and I just smiled back sitting next to my dad. "Sorry I'm late"

"Oh no dear, we were just so hungry and figured you were on your way" My grandma said sending me a sympathetic smile. This was the problem, everyone was smiling and laughing and I wasn't in the mood to do either. I just broke a guys heart and it was wrong for me to laugh it off.

Everyone got into a conversation mainly about how One Direction is doing a reunion tour with every member and how it sold out instantly. I concentrated on my fork stabbing a piece of meat I had on the plate. "Rose!" My mom said loud and I looked up and saw that my cup has been tipped over and on to my mother's white blouse.

    My eyes widened and I kept apologizing while cleaning up the mess. "I just bought this yesterday and you can't even get out of a day dream of this boy of yours who won't like you back. Damn it Rose!" I just stood there silently cleaning up the mess because what she said was true. "Julie, that is no way to talk to your daughter just for a blouse you can buy at the store" Anne said getting up and getting the cloth from my hand and finished the spill and put the cloth in the sink.

      I looked around and saw my dad looking down at his plate not saying a word and my uncle Harry looking at my mom in disbelief. "No, it's okay." I say smiling and sit back down motioning for them to do the same. My grandma just stood there for a while until she sat down and my mom looked annoyed. She sat down and grabbed my hand from under the table. It hurt because she always does this when she has to say sorry. It's like she always want's to be right and never want's to admit what she did was wrong.

     We finished eating and chatting about small things ignoring the show that happened.

     My uncle and grandma decided to stay the night since it was too late to drive and hour back home. We all went to bed including my uncle and grandma since they stay in the guest rooms we have. I just sat on my bed eyes staring at the door that was slightly open. The door opened a bit more showing my uncles hair. I smiled a bit patting the bed signaling for him to sit down. I didn't have the best relationship with my parents since they are packed with work and th3eir jobs, but she did have a fair one. When I was young and there wasn't a babysitter  (which was often) my mom would drop me off and uncle Harry's place and he would help me with my homework and talk to me about my day.

     He was always like my second father because her dad was a very good one too. "You didn't look too good today" He said sitting down. "I'm fine." I smiled. "Just really tiered." We discussed the thing that happened with my mom, both agreeing that she was really upset and bummed about her new shirt and said things she didn't mean.

  He hugged me and kissed me goodnight before he turned off my lights and shut the door. Not long after the door opened again showing my mom with her hair down and in pajamas. "Hey," She said sitting on my bed. I guess Harry told her that I was kind of shocked about her outburst and she came to talk about it.  "What I did was wrong and stupid and I'm super sorry." She whispered. I could see a frown on her face a bit and I sat up and turned my lamp on.

     "I forgive you" I say. I've done much worse. She smiled and kissed my cheek pushing me softly so she could lay next to me. "I've been down on it lately" She whispered in my ear with her hands held around me.  "Your not the only one" I say back. I needed a shoulder right now and I'm glad it's my own mother's. "Are you okay" She asks and I huge her tightly and tell her, "He found out"

My mothers grip on me tightened as well letting me cry on her shirt as she whispered "It'll get better" or "He'll forgive you" It was nice to hear those things even though she knew they were never going to come true.  And she admits, even though it was a sad moment she never felt so close to her mother before.




HEY GUYS! So I got a few Dm's asking if it's almost over and my answer is NO! I don't know if you guys remember in the first few chapters where Julie and Harry got in an argument where she almost had an abortion with Rose but yeah. There is more to come! And My internet was gone for three days so it was hell. ALso, I'm reading this good book it's 5sos (malum and lashton) and It is the best ever!!! I read it every freaking night! Like why?
