Why Don't We Give It A Try? || Blake Gray

Chapter 18

Hailey Cassander

After those words left my mouth, he walked out of the room. It wasn't true, I love Blake and I still do. I did it so I can save my family's life.

Flashback

"You disgusting whore, what did my son ever did to you??" The woman asked while pushing me against the wall.

"He broke my heart and found a new girl okay? I hate him. He hates me too so it a fair game" I answered.

"If you do not make my son fall in love with you again, consider your family dead" she threaten and walks out the door.

Then a few minutes later, her son came into the room. He wasn't able to witness the scene. So this was my chance. It's either my family dies or I'll make him love me.

"Hailey, I'm so sorry for my mom. She's currently drunk so I suggest to you to go away and avoid her"

"I love you Jack.."

End of flashback

"I'm sorry" I muttered, but I knew he wouldn't hear it.

-----

It's been a while since I've told Blake about my nightmare. He told me today was his flight back to California.

So I decided to go with him to the airport. I thought it would be the last time we'll see each other. But no, there are still a lifetime for me to make an effort to see him.

"I guess this is goodbye?"he asked, not bothering to look at me in the eye.

"it's not" I said.

After hesitating, he hugged me and I hugged back. I probably forgot to tell you he gives the best hugs.

"Passengers, bound for Oakland, California Aiport, please proceed to the main gate" the girl in the speakers announced, making us pull away from our hug.

"This isn't goodbye" I said as he smiled faintly. He dragged his luggage bags and started walking towards main gate.

Tears streamed down on my cheeks.

It's all my fault. I was just scared of dying. But I guess this hurts more than dying.

Blake Gray

"Tickets sir" I gave the lady my ticket and she returned a paper for my seat number.

I went in the plane, searching for my seat. Finally, I spotted my seat next to a guy. I placed my handcarry below the seat infront of me.

The whole ride, I was sleeping. Having nightmares and all.

"You must love Jasmine back" a guy said dragging me and Jasmine towards a cell.

Then we heard an evil laugh.

I looked at Jasmine, hopeless. I couldn't love her anymore. But what if that's the way I can get out of here?

"I-i love you Blake" the she grabbed a blade and killed herself.

"Sir?" The flight attendant said as I opened my eyes. I looked around the empty room.

"W-where's everyone?" I asked.

"They left few minutes ago. Sir, you might wanna leave because we still have another flight to catch up to" the girl said.

I stood up, grabbed my bags and headed outside.

Finally, I was back to California. I was greeted by my mom at the entrance gate.

"I've missed you so much" she said and hugged me tightly.

"I missed you too mom" I said while hugging back.

Then we went to our car and headed home. I went straight to my room. Laying silently on my bed.

I could still remember the nightmare, strange. But it was sort of like Hailey's nightmare.

What if it's just a test. To know if we still loved that person. Hailey did fall for it. Now, she loves him but he does not love her.

What a mystery.

Not a minute later, my phone rang.

"Hey" I greeted.

"Yo what's up, it's Sierra" she said from the other line.

"Hey, what's up? Why'd you call by the way?" I asked.

"I just wanted to ask how it went with you and Hailey" she said.

"Turns out, she loved Jack" I said, faintly.

"Aw, you came to all of that trouble just to see her then she tells you she loves Jack" she explained, with anger in her voice.

"Yeah, something like that" I said.

"Hey, it's okay. There's many fishes in the sea" she said, trying to comfort me.

"Damn it, she was my sea" I said, receiving a laugh from Sierra.

"Okay okay, I know that. Anyways, gotta talk to you next time. Mom's calling me, bye" then there goes the call being ended.

I placed my phone on my nightstand.

"I-i think I still love him"

I don't even know anymore. Is this what I get for pretending I love Jasmine? Probably.

I guess I can't move on that fast this time.

So much for those heartbreaks I've been dealing these days.

"Blake, you have a visitor" mom yelled making me out of my reverie.

I trudge downstairs only to be greeted by Penelope but Hailey told me I can call her Penny.

"Hey Penny" I greeted.

"Hey, I wanted to tell you something" she said.

"Oh sure, take a seat" I said, while sitting down. She did the same thing.

"It's about Hailey" she said.

"Yeah, what about her?" I asked.

"She met an accident, a big one. I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to remember anything or anyone" she said.

"What?!" I asked, almost jumping out of my seat.

"H-how?" I asked.

"After she went to the airport, the taxi she was in had a crazy drunk driver." She explained.

"Who's gonna take care of her?" I asked, getting more and more worried.

"Jack and Trevor" she answered, her head looking down.

Oh no, I don't trust those guys.
