Chapter 1

Elise's P.O.V

I am at home alone jamming out to my favorite music. No one is here so I put it on the loudest it could go not giving a care in the world. I have just gotten home from school and my day wasn't so good. People just don't know when to stop. 

My parents should be home soon they went to go pick up my sister from the airport because she has just gotten back from her trip so I am treasuring the time I have without her. I know as soon as she gets home fights are just going to break out and that is the last thing I want to deal with also.

Another fight I think to myself. That is the last thing that I want. I still haven't gotten over my last fight with Josh Hutcherson, my boyfriend, that happened a few days ago. Or so I think he is still MY boyfriend. i don't really know I two haven't talked since. 

He hurt me..bad. He thinks he didn't because he is to blind to notice. He tore apart my heart. I probably would have never figured out if I were not watching the television at the time. 

What he did was unforgivable. How could I ever forgive him anyways? I can't that's the thing. I can always look past what has happened but it was always be lurking in the past no matter what. That will have always happened and can never be reversed. 

People at school even know what has happened and feel no sympathy for me. People always said for me to not get involved with him but I didn't listen to him because I had to strong of feelings towards him. I loved him. Only the few people who have always been there or stuck by my side no matter what. Others, since I started dating Josh, let me because they thought that the fame would change me and they did not want to deal with it, when in reality it didn't. People I didn't even talk to tried becoming friends with me just because I was the girlfriend of the one and only, Josh Hutcherson. 

I hear the sound of a door click and scramble off your bed to turn my music off. My sister rolls in with her luggage followed by my mom and dad. I jump back onto my bed grabbing a book  to read since I don't  want to hear my sister nag me about my loud music. 

"Miss me." She beams opening up her luggage and pulling out her phone charger and plugging it in.

"Totally." I huff opening up to the page i left off on.

"I bet." She plops down on her bed and your dad brings the rest of her luggage in. My mom walks out of the room to start dinner. "A week away to long for my sister. She misses me too much." She grins to our dad. 

He walks over to me and nudges my head. I swap him away with my hands and let out a sigh. He walks out of the room and I continue reading. There's an awkward silence filling the air between my sister and I but I don't bother to say anything.

"Wheres Josh?" She questions breaking the silence.

"Does it matter?" I say with no emotion. "Its not like he care." 

"Did something happen?" I can tell by the sound of her voice that she knew what has happened.

"Like you don't already know. Don't you watch the news?" I roll my eyes and close the book putting it back onto the shelf. 

She opens her mouth to say something but closing it deciding not to push the subject further. She obviously knows what has happened but just likes to nag me. I could slap her I think but decide not too. My mom screams out that dinner is ready and I walk into the kitchen after my sister, instantly the smell of tacos smacking my face. 

I gather two tacos onto my plate and sit down across from my mother. The whole time for dinner we make small talk just about what has happened that day and my sisters trip. Your parents know better than to ask me about Josh right now because they know what happened. Well I think they do. They just saw ME crying alone in the darkness of my room the other night. They tried helping me but I just pushed them away not wanting anyone's help because i think I can deal with the pain myself. 

Its my night for dishes so I wash everyone's plates and cups. I begin putting them away and my phone goes off in my back pocket. I pull the phone out and see Josh<3 across the screen indicating that he is calling me. I lock my phone and ignore the call placing it on the counter next the the clean dishes I just did. 

Just as I statred putting more dishes away my phone went off again, he was calling me. This time I decided to just let it ring and leave it there. I put away the rest of the dishes and the ringing sound of my phone fades. I smile that there is not voice mail because I know I can't bare to hear his voice right now. 

My mom, sister, and dad are in the living room watching a movie and I am really are not in the mood to see. I change into a pair of pajamas and put my hair up in a messy bun. Jumping onto bed I pull out my phone and scroll through my Instagram liking every photo I basically see. Instagram fades and I have a incoming call. Its Josh again. i decide not to ignore it this time and I pick up. 

"Hello." I whisper pressing the phone against my ear. My lips a pierced into and straight line waiting for his response. Even though I do not want to talk to him I have to hear what he has to say about this. 

"Elise.." He manages to finally say.

He is crying.
