Mirrors - Wes Stromberg Story [HTB Sequel]

Chapter 21: Flashbacks & Memories

Melanie's POV

Here I was. Pregnant, and with Wesley. Amazing job and all. If you would have told me that my life was going to end up like this I would have laughed in your face.

*Flashback*

"You'll never amount to anything. Your worthless. All this trouble your getting into is going to be your downfall." she screamed

"Says, the one that's addicted to drugs." I scoffed before a hand hit me smooth in the face.*

*End of Flashback*

My mom never talked to me. Just hit. She was my main reason and I think deep down, the only reason I got in trouble was to get her attention but in the end, the drugs won instead of me.

*Flashback*

"I cant believe we're living in California." I said to Kaylannie.

"I know. I never thought we'd get here." she said happily.

*End of flashback*

California was my dream spot. Where I thought I'd make everything come true. Where I thought I would get away from all my old ways. Where I'd make a living and that's exactly what I was doing and I ended up finding love in the process. Especially going to a party that I didn't even plan on going to.

*Flashback*

I don't know why y'all are dragging me to this party." I wined to my friends Iman, Kaylannie & Kaci.

"Because Mel, you need to get out the house. Your always cooped up in your room on your Twitter or at work. Your off this weekend so were gonna make you have fun." Kaci told me

*Couple of weeks later*

Wes put me down!" I yelled through my laughter as Wes ran around the beach holding me.

"Nope! Not until you say it." he said

"Noooooo" I replied

"Well then I'm going to throw you in the water." he stated making his way to the ocean

"Fine! Fine!" I said smirking

"Wes is the best, I'm a dork and I snort" I said under my breath.

"What was that? I couldn't hear you. You want to go swimming."

"No, I said it. I said WES IS THE BEST, IM A DORK AND I SNORT." I yelled and he burst out laughing then putting me down

.

*End of Flashback*

I smiled as everything came back to me. Wesley and I have been through so much together and we were still holding on. He was the guy that I actually let in that I learned to love. The guy that I lost my virginity to. The guy that put me through hell sometimes but was the first to always make up for it. The first guy that actually loved me. The guy who supported me through my rehab days even when he should have been focused on tour.

A hand tapping me brought me out my thoughts.

"Baby. How do you feel about this house?" Wesley asked.

"Honestly?" I asked as him and the lady showing us around looked worrying at me. "I love it. The backyard, the front yard. It's spacious and in an amazing neighborhood." I stated

"So, is that a yes Mr. and Mrs. Stromberg?" the lady who introduced herself as Anne asked us smiling sweetly.

"Yes. We'll take it." Wesley exclaimed.

"Perfect! Let's go sign some papers and then the house is yours. After 30 minutes of looking through everything we finally signed our name. "You can move in as soon as possible." she said handing us a key and walking out the house leaving us to soak everything in.
