The truth

Simons POV

"Amanda?" I am worried enough because of the smell and the alcohol bottles, but she did not even answer my shoutings. I start looking around searching for her. I begin in the kitchen, skip the living room (obiously she wasn't there one mitnute ago, when I found the bottles) and continue in her office, but I couldn't find her. I first want to check if she is in the cellar, when I discover blood on the steps, which lead to first floor. I go upstairs and follow the blood to Amandas bathroom. I slowly open the bathroom door and tried to expect everything, what could be behind. I am afraid. As I have the door compleate open, the room is empty. That was the one thing I didn't expect. Suddenly I hear a soft voice wispering my name. I quickly go to Amandas bedroom and find her laying on the bed. "Oh my gosh, Mandy" I say and run to her bed, put her up and hold her tight. She is still wearing the dress she wore yesterday and I can finally see where all the blood is coming from. I guess she fall into the broken bottles in the night when she was drunk because her palms are dotted with cuts. The blood sticks half-dry on her hand. "Si, I can't handle this on my own anymore. I can't. Please help me!" She craves. I have never ever seen her so desperate and helpless befor. "Shh! Everything is going to be ...." I try calming her but she interrupts me "No No No! Don't say that! Nothing is going to be fine! You have no idea, what this is all about" she shouts at me and I am shocked. She never even yelled at me befor. She is not drunk, but why.... . "Then tell me Manda! I want to know what this is about! Talk to me!" I say to her with emphasis but without raising my voice. She did not answer this time. "Come on Mandy! It's okay if you don't want to talk to me right now, but we have you get ready because auditions start in 2 hours and we don't want to be late babe!" I say put her up and help her getting ready. While she was standing under the shower, I get downstairs and start to clean up the broken bottles and open the windows to get the smell of alcohol out of her house. As she walks down the stairs, I already cleaned then from the blood. "Come over darling, that I can have a look at your hands." I request her to do. She just do what I want her to, so I clean her wounds and bandage her palms. Once we are finish, we head to my car and drive to the theater. Befor we get out of the car Amanda holds me back. "Thank you Simon. I am really thankful for everthing you have ever done for me. Do you want come over tonight for dinner after the auditions. I need to tell you something." She says to me. I can see the pain in her eyes and reply: " I would love to" She gives me a little smile and we both get out of the car and make our way to the theater. The day protracted like bubble gum an I couldn't wait for the end of the day. After also the last take for Britains Got More Talent we are allowed to go home. I drop Amanda off at her house and she tells me to be there at 8 pm. I drive my way home and change into something comfotable, but also good looking. I pass one's time doing some working staff and leave just in time. When I arrive at Amandas, she open the door for me and leads me to the kitchen. This time it smells phenominal. She offers me a seat and we start to eat. We do a lot of small talk and it feels like all the past weeks did not happen. "Manda darling, you are an amzing cook. It tasted phenominal." I say to her after we finised the dessert. She blushes and I smile "You make me look like a tomato." She says. " A really cute tomato" I reply. We do the dishes together and after that we cuddle up om the couch. We enjoy each others embrace as Amanda starts talking:" Look Simon, I have been going through a really rough time the last few weeks and I am sorry that I did not talk to you. I just want to apologize and ask what I can do that you forgive me being so ugly to all of you." After a few seconds of silence i answer :" The truth daling! I want to know the truth! What is wrong? What is this about?"

She takes a deep breath:" I........"
