These Things I've Done

Everybody makes a life changing mistake. Sometimes, we look at that mistake and say,"Wow I learned something valuable from this. I'll never forget this!", and others, we're reminded every day. Every hour. Every second.

My mistake is my daughter; Hadley. I was sixteen, reckless, a rebel, and crazy 'in love'. My notebooks from school had 'Aimee+Braxx' or 'A+B' and other stupid things on them for about three months until I found out I was pregnant. He told his family and they packed up and left. I haven't heard from them since.

My family's reaction was priceless. My mom cried and my father yelled. There was nothing they could do but tell me how much of a disappointment I was. But then again, when didn't they?

I always did something wrong. I always had SOME flaw compared to my sister, who ironically was younger than me.

"Why can't you be like Ava?! She does her homework!"

"Ava's so obedient! Why don't you listen?!"

Ava, Ava, Ava. That's all it was.

My home life was pretty screwed up; I eventually developed high anxiety, I've now gotten close to no one, due to my trust issues, so I took this opportunity to move from Leeds to Mullingar where my aunt lived. It'd been a quiet three years. Hadley was a quiet baby. Nothing major.

She listened for the most part, never throwing fits in public or even at home. She wasn't offered as much as I could give her, but what's a teen mom to do? I couldn't give her the world; as much as I wanted to.

It was a shopping trip to Dublin that changed everything. And when I say everything, I mean, EVERYTHING.

Howdy! So I've started this new story,"These Things I've Done" and Aimee is played by me. I'll eventually post a picture of myself on here at some point, but I don't know when I can because I'm writing this on my iPod so ya know. But yeah! I hope you like the prologue! There will be more to come every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday (((((((((:
