The Insane Souls

Chapter four

It's been a few months since I met Thorn, and we've become pretty close. He doesn't know about the accident, which I shouldn't be keeping from him, but I want this friendship to last. I've had more than just 'friendship' feelings for him for a while, but if I tell him I know it'll ruin everything. So I keep my feelings to myself. I'm walking to his house now, just to hang out. As I walk inside I kiss him on the cheek. Realizing what I had done I instantly wanted to leave.
"Oh my god, Thorn I'm sorry. I'll go.. I'm really sorry." I turned bright red as I opened the door to leave. Before I could go he grabbed my arm and turned me around.
"Sorry for what? A kiss?"
"Yeah.. I was worried you'd make fun of me for liking you."
"Make fun of? I'm just glad you feel the same." He pulled me into a gentle kiss. At first I was shocked, then I wrapped my arms around him and kissed back. Afterwards we had a Harry Potter marathon.
"So are weeee together orrrr?" He asked, blushing awkwardly.
"I'd say yes." I reply, grinning. He smiled and gave me a peck on the lips and I walked home.
"WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!?" Willow shouted at me as soon as I walked through the door.
"Thorn's house. Why do you care?"
"I CARE BECAUSE YOU'VE BEEN GONE FOR HOURS!"
"We were watching movies.. I'm sorry next time I'll text you."
"You better." She sighed and went up the stairs. "Don't forget to take your pill."
After taking the pill I went to sleep. I woke up to yelling.
Is this real? I asked myself. I can never really tell what is real. I walk downstairs and see my parents arguing. It's from the day of the accident.. they got in an argument and were taking us to stay the night at our grandparents house. My dad was driving, and was at a stop sign when a car rammed into us. The car flipped, my dad flew through the window, already dead, as he had the most impact. My mom, on the other hand hit her head on the window and was able to call an ambulance. She calmed me, holding my hand. Willow was unconscious, and my mom died, with my hand in hers. I came back to reality and decided to watch American Horror Story while waiting for the others to wake up. After they wake up and we eat breakfast, we decide to have a lazy day. We watched movies in our pyjamas, and ate popcorn. In between movies I thought of how I could tell Thorn about the accident. I don't want to ruin our relationship.. or even our friendship, but I know I have to tell him. I decide it's best to say something to him in person, so I tell myself to stop worrying.
I get up early to get ready for school and, surprisingly, no hallucinations. I nervously faced him. I'm going to by tell him, I have to.
"Hey, what's wrong?" He could tell how nervous I was.
"Well, when I was five my parents, sister, and I got in a car accident. My parents both died, which is why I'm living with my grandma. I could see the hit and run driver's face very clearly.. and I'm pretty sure it was your dad.."
