Blast from the Past pt1

A/N so basically this chapter is going to be going back to a year ago before Charlotte came to Australia and it's going to kind of explain why Charlotte had to move to Australia a little bit more it's gonna be in two parts so this is pt1  I hope you enjoy it! Also the song for these two chapters is 'Heaven by Beyoncé.'

It all started on a bridge.

Charlottes POV 1 year ago

My bare feet carry me along the cold pavement. The soft sound of rippling waves of the sea full my ears, and my numb hands collide with the cold metal of the bridge that I should never have walked on. The bridge that ruined my entire life. The bridge where I met him.

Both my hands are now gripping on the ice bound metal bars that hold me back from falling over the side and into the water that would swallow my whole pointless existence. I squeeze my eyes shut and open then again trying to clear my vision.

However all I can see is a stream of light from the night lights shining over the water. I attempt to find the time on my phone and realise it's 3am. My phone slips from my grasp and the sound of smashing rings in my ears. And I fall to the ground, the wind blowing my hair around in every direction. I push it out of my face, making no difference whatsoever.

"Char babe cmon you need to come home with me" I hear nicks voice mock me entirely as he lifts my helpless drugged up body. Me and nick have been together for a while now... It was amazing at first. Not anymore....

He sometimes.... Hurts me and calls me horrible names. He only does it when we're drunk or high. He pulls my body into a car im not familiar with which is filled with 2 other boys and a girl that I recognise. My eyes begin to focus more and I notice how scared she looks. Wait...

Why the fuck is my twin sister hanging around with these guys.

"Hey nick light us a zoot" he does as follows not before taking a few tokes himself and placing it between my lips. I inhale the substance and laugh tilting my head back. I turn my head to my sister who is beside me and offer her some but she refuses. However the guy next to her has other ideas he rips it from my grasp and forces it into her mouth. She pushes his hand away and the sound of his hand colliding with her cheeks surrounds the car. I look down not wanting to engage in the shit I have to put up with everyday as well. An overwhelming sense of guilt washes over me as I'm doing nothing to save my sister from the life ahead of her. To save this girl from becoming me.

But I do nothing.

My sister just got hurt and I do nothing.

The guy drives off at an alarming speed and blasts out some shitty music.

After 15 minutes of reckless driving we pull up to a run down almost abandoned looking house which is full of im guessing hopeless stoners like myself. We all climb out the car and I feel Victoria pull my arm.

"Char im scared I want to come home" I feel a sense of pity for her but the drugs speak other words.

"For fuck sakes why would you even come out of your too pussy to join in. You always ruin everything" I slut stumbling over a bit.

"I just... I want to be like you."

"What? No you don't Vic" I say laughing slightly afterwards.

"I do... Your the cool sister and im just the boring nerd who boys won't date because I'm a prude even my own boyfriend thinks I am" she says as if being a virgin at the age of 17 is bad. It's not, I wish I was a virgin. I would take being a virgin over being raped any day.

I should've known back then that Nick was bad. I shouldn't have stayed with him in fear. But I did and I regret more and more every day.

"Wait the guy in the car is your boyfriend??" Oh no... She's trying to be like me and he shouldn't. I wish to be anyone but me.
