Chapter-15: The Aftermath

*Damon's POV*

I woke up bright and early. I decided that while I'm here in Florida, I am going to spend as much time with my mom and my friends. The others can do whatever they want, considering I see them every day in New York. I went downstairs an found my mom making breakfast. "Hey mom! Want some help?" I asked. She smiled. "No honey, I got it, you just sit down and enjoy yourself. Thank you though." I sighed. My mom was always the best. I offered my help but I'm her baby so she always says no. She is a very independent woman.

"Damon, what happened with Jayde last night?" My mom asked. I sighed. I know what happen, but it's not really my place to tell my mom Jayde's background story. I bit my lip. Jayde is going to have one hell of a hang over when she wakes up.

"She went out drinking. Jeydon kind of pushed her to do so, but other stuff has been on her mind. She came home drunk. I know why she did it, but it's not really my place to tell you. I know if you ask her though, she will open up too you. She loves you. I'm sorry mom, she confided in me, and I don't want to break her trust. Her and Mya mean the world to me. They have helped me with my anxiety and depression. They have also helped me make new friends. So you have to ask her," I said with as much emotion as possible. Those girls and even the guys mean a lot to me.

"I understand honey, I am so proud of you. You have grown to be a very well educated and respectful young man. And I will talk to Jayde myself," she replied with tears in her eyes. My speech had got to her. I feel bad for making her cry but they weren't tears of sorrow or sadness, they were tears of joy, tears of happiness and most importantly, tears of love. That's what puts a smile on my face, my mom's happiness.

*Jayde's POV*

I woke up with the sunlight shining in my eyes and a pounding headache. I groaned. Hangovers suck. All I remember from last night is coming home and everyone stopped what they were talking about as soon as I walked through the door. So I just looked at them and came into my bedroom slamming the door behind me.

I went to get up and go down stairs but I immediately regretted it as soon as I stood up. I got dizzy and my head felt like it weighed a million pounds. I tried to ignore the pounding in my head as I made my way to the kitchen to get the Advil. I made my way to the kitchen and my nose was filled with the scent of bacon and sausage. Mmm. As if on cue my stomach started growling. "Good morning Hun," Damon said quite loudly if I do say. I groaned in response. "Too loud," I said. He just chuckle quietly. Asshole.

I grabbed the Advil and took two 500's. I swallowed them and then took a swig of water. I grabbed about a half of pound of bacon and a couple sausage links. I sat across from Damon meeting his eyes once. I knew that if I made direct eye contact with him, he would see the pain and hurt in my eyes. His mom just sat down and drank her coffee.

After I finished my breakfast, I put my plate in the sink and mumbled a thank you. I needed to get out of here. I needed to clear my head. All the memories and nightmares came flooding back.

~flashback~

I was three years old and living with my mom. She had a boyfriend named Chris. They were always arguing and yelling at each other. One night they were both drunk, they started fighting and things got physical. I watched as Chris threw my mom into a toilet. Tears streaming down my innocent face as I watched my mom get hurt. I couldn't do anything, I was helpless. My grandma and dad came and got me because my mom's neck hurt really bad. Every night for a week, I woke up in the middle of the night screaming and crying from the terrible nightmare that I had witnessed.

~end of flashback~

My dad ended up getting full custody of me because my mom was an alcoholic. She did her time in jail and she was clean for about 6 years. Everything was fine, I was visiting her an everything until she started drinking again. I stopped going over there and then we boyfriend Mike that she ha since I was 4 years old, his dad passed away and e started doing drugs.

Come to find out after his father passed they were doing cocaine and heroin with my little sister around. They got arrested and I tried to be there for them but they just blamed me. To this day I don't know where they are. My sister is in Vegas with Mike's mom considering her and I have different fathers. I really-

"JAYDE!" Someone yelled, snapping me out of my thoughts. I came back to reality, realizing it was Damon's mom. "Honey, what's wrong? You have tears streaming down your face and I've been trying to get your attention for the last 10 minutes," she said, her voice filled with concern.

"Nothing, just thinking about the good times, happy tears. That's all," I said putting on a fake smile.

They believed it. If only they could see me breaking down inside.
