We enter Chris's room, surprisingly it's very clean.

"Wow, are you sure this is you're room? it's more cleaner than mine" He smirks.

"Dirty girl" He puts his arms around my neck and pulls me closer to him.

"Says the one that asked me if we could have sex, Two seconds after you asked me out!" I giggle, and he laughs along with me.

"I want to be really close to you babe" He kisses my forehead and I lean my head on his chest.

"Yeah, REAL close" He smirks again and then turns around, trying to locate his bed, which I eventually help him with.

"Hey beautiful, can you get me a jacket, I'm freezing" I respond and go over to his closet and open the pull - out doors and start searching. I find one lying on the ground that must have fallen off the coat hanger. I also see something else. I get closer to it, when I realise, it's a table. But this table didn't have normal things on it. This table had photos and candles and a single rose. The girl was beautiful, and the rose was dying, the candles withered from being lit for a while. Who was this girl? Was she a sister? Did he build a shine for a Dead friend?

"Babe, what are you doing in there? sowing me a new jumper?" He chuckles, and I frown.

"Chris, can I ask you a question?" I help him put the jacket on and then sit on the edge of the bed.

"Sure, what is it?"

"Well-" I move around on the bed till I'm facing him "-I was wondering who that girl, in the pictures inside you're closet was" His face instantly frowns.

"It's nobody Skylar, why were you in my closet?"

"I was getting you a jacket, most jackets are hung in a closet?" He huffs and has a irritated look on his face.

"Look, don't go in there again, it's none of you're buisness Skye" I frown at his tone.

"Fine" I get up, and swing open the door. Running downstairs I see Trevor, Ignoring Chris's pleads, I run up to him and take a deep breath in.

"Who shrine is that in Chris's closet?" His eyes widen and he stands from the couch.

"It's his ex girlfriend Trisha, she died of a gun shot in the side of her head" He answers sadly.

"Why didn't he tell me this?" He shrugs his shoulders.

"Too be fair, you've only known each other for a week" I hum in agreement.

"But this, this is huge. He has a shrine of a girlfriend" Trevor holds up his finger.

"He was going to engage to her" I push a lump in my throat down.

"H-he what?" His face is filled with realisation.

"Fuck! I didn't say that, forget it-" "Skye! why did you run away" I hear Chris scream from the stairs as he slowly makes his way down.

"Chris, why didn't you tell me that was you're fiance!" I say furiously. He glares in the distant.

"I am going to kill Trevor" His fist tighten and so do mine.

"At least he told me, when were you going to tell me that you were engaged to a girl, who never broke it off! You're still engaged Christian!" His face shows pure anger.

"SKYE! SHE FUCKING DIED! HOW COULD WE HAVE BROKEN APART HUH? WHY ARE YOU BEING A SELFISH BITCH FOR!?" I take a step back.

"Sorry for overreacting a bit when I find out my boyfriend is engaged!" Trevor puts his hand on my shoulder but I shake it off.

"You're being unbelievable, how could you be so selfish! That's all you've ever cared about is you! everyday of this week, it's been about how you feel like shit! Get the fuck over it! you're fat? yeah well I'm fucking blind! I lost my girlfriend because I didn't pay my debt, I got her killed and before we could do anything, she passed away! So don't you DARE come in here, and start yelling when I fucking loved her then!, I wanted her forever!"

"Do you still love her?" I ask him, he doesn't respond. I shake my head.

"Thanks a lot, you're just like everyone else" I run out the door, hearing it slam behind me.

I start making my way home, bumping into people by accident and ignoring their snarls and harsh remarks. I get to the Intersection and stand at the crossing, waiting for it to be free. I see a woman get into a car, she looked very familiar, then I realise, It's my mother.

"MUM!, MUM!" She turns her head in my direction and stares at me, then continues getting into the strangers car, completely ignoring me. I run over to the car once the traffic is clear, but their already off, blowing dust into my face.

I stand there huffing, tears streaming down my face. How could she just ignore me? I start walking home, forgetting about her. Suddenly it starts to rain, and I curse mentally at the dark clouds above my head. I finally see my front lawn and I sprint inside and slam the door behind me and rush to the couch and plop myself down on it, crying more harshly than before.

I calm down eventually and then my eyes become more focus and I notice a white piece of paper? I reach for it and tug it out from under the couch and I realize it's a letter.

To My darling daughter Skylar, From Daddy. What the hell? I rip it open and begin reading.

Hello honey, long time no talk. Listen I know you don't want to speak to me because of the reason I left but, I would really like to come down and grab you for a weekend so we can bond again, would you like that? I'll come down in a weeks time and we can speak then

Love you! - Dad. I frown at this and then check the date on the back.

".. This was sent four days ago?" I whisper to myself. But my father commited suicide? This can only mean one thing..

"Mother lied.."
