Babysitting Skylynn Grier

Chapter Ten

IMPORTANT NOTE AT THE BOTTOM- THIS CHAPTER IS DEDICATED TO A NEW BEST FRIEND OF MINE WHO I LOVE A LOT. It's only been a week and a day and I already feel tight with her, she makes me smile and laugh. And that's really hard for someone like me. So please thank @emilycollins513 for making me happy, and please check out her story which I've become obsessed with "Never Be Alone", a Shawn Mendes fanfic.

Love you all, xoxo- enjoy

*Sarah's POV*

Why him?

Why does it have to be him?

I get so happy. I find something, someone, who makes me happy and it's always torn apart.

Always.

But it's my house. And he got into it. And all for a note to be left in my room.

My dearest Sarah,

I truly do hope that you aren't having too much fun without me.
See you soon my love.
Love~ Liam

I crumble the piece of paper up and throw it across the room in anger. I stare blankly at my wall trying to think of what I could have done to make him show back up in my life. I haven't done a single thing. Have I?

And now that Nash is in my life... I can't lose that.

And I can't lose Izzy. I can't lose either of them. They make my world spin. Nash moves out of the corner of my eye and I turn to look at him. His face is directly in front of me, his breathing is unsteady but he still cups my face and pecks my lips.

"Sarah, things will be okay," he whispers. "Things will be okay." His voice carried uncertainty and he manages to give me a weak smile. As much as I know he wants to try and reassure me, I know it's me who has to reassure him. Wrapping my arms around him and embracing him tightly I whisper light words. I want things to be okay, and hopefully they will be.

The door knob turns and Izzy walks in, plopping herself down in front of us.

"What's wrong?" She frowns and looks between Nash and I. "If you guys broke up, well, that'd be stupid." I rose an eyebrow at her and let go of Nash and picked up Izzy placing her on my lap. "Sarah, what's wrong? I want you to be happy. When you're happy I'm happy." Kissing the top of her head and holding her close to me I debate if it would be better to not tell her. She's six years old. And it's hard for me to comprehend that she's that young. News about a guy who had ruined my entire life by doing what he did, I don't know how she would react. Let alone anyone else. Nash's reaction was the first one I've actually seen. He's the only person to know. He isn't six. There's a major difference between them.

"Sarah?" Izzy waves her hands in my face bringing me out of my thoughts.

"Izzy... I don't know how I would explain it to you." I speak softly, combing her hair with my fingers. I look at Nash for some sort of idea on how to explain it. Or if I even should continue, but he keeps his eyes focused on Izzy. I sigh and move her so she's facing me, taking in a deep breath before I begin. "Izzy, you know that there are some mean people in the world right?" I ask and she nods her head.

"Well, there is was this guy who was very mean to me. And it stopped for a about a year, and I've been happier. And you make me very happy. It's been a good year. But right before you came in, I found out some bad news."
