Gale Pov
"We have to do something we can't just let her die!" Trey yelled at his mother, she held her head in palms. "I lost her once I refuse to do so again." He stated pacing the floor. Victoria tried to comfort him to no avail. I couldn't help but stare at her, every time I did I found something more intriguing about her. The way her jaw was framed by that long raven hair, or how her lips would sometimes twisted into a wicked grin when she would be devious. "We can't control law Trey I'm sorry but-," "But what?" He exclaimed snapping me out of my daze state.
Tyler stood off in the background, for once he was quiet. Never even attempted to break up his families squabbling. He instead sighed and slipped outside which I couldn't resist but to follow along.
"What's on your mind?" I asked, he just looked out at the deck of their beach house. "I just don't get it." He whispered, "You know you couldn't have him forever. People do tend to grow up. No matter of manipulation, anger, jealously, scheming, or evil will change that." Tyler sighed, "How could he love her? What is it about her that I just don't see?"
"Of course you can't see it, your not in love with her. I thought you were suppose to be the smart one?" I smirked, "I've watched Trey when I left. He handled it well...he moved on. When he lost Alex." Tyler stopped for moment and just stared down. "There are things a older brother should never have to see and that's the sight of him failing his little brother. I didn't protect him, not like a real older brother should have. I never needed a whole lot of people, just Trey, I guess I just for a while couldn't accept that he didn't just need me anymore. Tell Victoria, and them I'm sorry." He said, I looked at him oddly "Where are you going?" I asked worried, he laughed "Despite all that's happened I know Trey won't want me around after all this blows over. So I'm skipping town."
I didn't really believe him but with Tyler you could never tell what was honesty and what was a lie. This time I felt like I finally understood Tyler a bit, or at least better. "Give this to Trey for me when you think he's ready." Tyler added handing me this letter that was sealed. He walked down the few steps and didn't take long for him to be soon gone after that.
I walked back in the house stuffing the letter in my coat. They were still yelling, frantic, and shouting. Trey just left to Alex's room. Victoria was on his heels until I touched her shoulder. "I think I got this one." I explained, she just gave another worried look to Trey then to me before nodding her head and letting me by.
He stood there starring out the window. "Do you think, there's a God?" He asked quietly, I opened my mouth several times unsure how to answer his question. "I'd like there to be. I'm hoping there is." I replied truthfully standing beside him. "I feel like, all my life he has personally just aimed to ruin it. Why have me meet Alexandria if I was meant to lose her? Why make me this way, make me strong enough to move cars, but not enough to protect her? Why allow me to love if all I'm going to do is loose? Why make Tyler and then me? Why? What terrible crimes have I committed to always feel like I'm being tormented?" He questioned pushing his forehead against the window.
I swallowed hard, I had no faith to give, no hope to reassure, and worst of all no answers. Words didn't seem deep enough, I just put my hand on his shoulder. He stiffened for a moment, but eventually shoved me off. "Don't touch me." He hissed, I sighed at him and watch as he walked quietly to his room without saying anything else.
Alex POV
I huddled together on the uncomfortable plastic heep of a bed. Even with my heighten eyes, the cells were shrouded in darkness. I could hear the sounds of other inmates, and their various pleas. I felt tears swell in my eyes. Was this really how I was going to die. Like some animal. Without anyone. Without Trey. Even after everything we've been through, all I did was loose him again. I clutched the blossom shaped necklace in my hands. I didnt want to miss out on living again. I haven't even seen my parents till today, or is it yesterday. I was tired, exhausted, but I only had so many hours left. Yet there was nothing to do, and why sit in torture?
As I fell asleep I could feel my dreams shift and without even having to see I felt the one person I wanted to see most.
