Worth Dying For

Home Sweet Home

Melissas POV:

I walked up the steps and onto the porch of the two story home.

"Do you know where they key is?" The lady asked me. I slowly shook my head and wrapped my arms around my shivering body. The lady looked down in disappointment and got the key from under the chair. The big door swung open and I stepped inside and let the warm air onto my cheeks.

"Do you know where your room is?" The man asked eagerly.

Not wanting the same expression I got from the woman I tried to guess. "Upstairs." I said hoping to get it right.

"Yes." He smiled and gave me my bag. "Now can you put this in your room?" He asked. I nodded sheepishly and started walking up the stairs. When I got upstairs I decided to try all of the doors. When I got to the first door I found a bathroom. When I got to the next I found a big bed. I bit my lip but stepped inside. I sat on the bed and waited for the people to come up to see if I got it right.

The man and woman came up the stairs and looked into the room across the hallway. They slowly turned to find me on the bed.

"This is your room over here." The woman soothed. I nodded slightly and walked across the hall with my bag. "Sleep tight." The woman smiled sadly and walked into the room across the hall. I sadly laid on my bed with all of my clothes on and went into a peaceful sleep.

*************************************The next Morning*************************************

I woke up and saw my room was still dark. Since the doctors said I should get back to school soon so I don't get held back my Senior year, I decided to get up. Slowly I walked over to my dresser and found everything I needed to take a shower. After the shower I got dressed and started to walk downstairs.

Suddenly I stopped when I heard the man and womans voice. "Shes not gonna graduate, Jeff." I heard the woman say.

"Marcey baby don't cry. She'll do fine." Jeff said.

"Oh. Maybe. Should we tell her the, secret?" Marcey asked doubtfully.

"No. We cant. We always wanted this." Jeff said.

"I hope we're doing the right thing here." Marcey said back. Before either could say anything else, I walked down the stairs loudly.

"Oh. Goodmorning sweetie! Want some breakfast before school?" Marcey asked suddenly sounding chipper.

"No thanks uhm, Marcey." I mumbled.

"Sweetheart, Its not polite to call your mom by her first name." Jeff said from behind the newspaper.

"Sorry guys. Im gonna go to school now. Bye." I said and rushed out the door.

"Melissa!" Jeff yelled from the porch. I turned suddenly and saw him holding up my back-pack. I blushed and vaguely remembered a moment like this. I walked up to him and took the bag from his hands. "And theres Niall. Have a good day honey." Jeff said before letting me go to the teenage boys car.

"Goodmorning, sunshine." The boy smiled and pecked my lips. I pulled back quickly.

"What are you doing?" I asked.

"We're dating." He said lowly and I saw the pain in his eyes.

"Im sorry. Whats your name?" I asked.

He took my hand in his and started driving. "Niall." He said.

Niall. I like that name. I remember it for some reason. Then it hit me. Its not a good reason.

"Niall. How long have we been dating?" I asked cautiously.

"A month and 3 days." He said without taking his eyes off of the road.

"Were you with me when I got hurt?" I asked.

He stopped abruptly and stared at me with tears in his eyes. "You know. Don't you?" He almost cried.

"I just. Someone was with me. It wasn't necessarily an accident when I got hurt." I felt pain rushing back as I tried to remember things that weren't there anymore.

"I. We, just want you to have the perfect life, Melissa." Niall started saying and cupped my face. "We're all afraid that if you knew everything you wouldn't want to stay anymore." He finished and turned his car off.

"You're all my friends and family. Boyfriend. I love you all. I don't remember you, but I must love you." I said slowly.

"Yeah." I Niall smiled and turned his car back on.

"Are we gonna be late?" I asked.

"Nah sweetheart. We're fine." Niall whispered and gripped the wheel.

Sooner than I expected, we were pulling into the school parking lot and Niall got out first and ran around the car to open my door.

"Thank you." I smiled politely.

"Hey Melissa!" A girl with a squeaky voice called out.

"Hello." I smiled and grabbed my back pack.

"How are you!" She gave me a bone crushing hug.

"I'm great. How are you?" I asked pulling away.

"I'm okay. I get to take you to classes today! Till you know your way around. Now your first class is Chem. And hurry we're gonna be late!" She exclaimed and hooked her arm in mine.

"What's your name?" I asked as we were hopping up the stairs.

"Holly! I'm the head cheerleader, head mathlete, water girl, and tour guide." She said in her bubbly tone.

"Oh alright. Are we friends?" I asked.

"We weren't, but now we are!" She beamed.

"Oh. Alright." I laughed as she pushed me towards a bathroom.

"Are you still with Niall?" Her tone went flat.

"Y-yes." I couldn't think of what was happening.

"You could be dead because of him. Melissa, he's bad news." Holly said with tears starting to grow in her eyes.

"What's going on? He loves me. I love him." I said. "I'm in a happy family." I said again trying to make sense if the situation I was in.

"Your family didn't tell you. Did they?" She asked getting tense and narrowing her eyes at me.

"What do you mean?" I asked getting hot cheeks quickly.

"First ask Niall about that day you got hurt. Then ask about a little girl named Emily." She said with a smirk on her face.

All of a sudden anger bubbled up inside of me. Anger was replaced by pain and I turned and punched the wall behind me. Emily. Emily. Emily. Who is that? When all of the anger was gone I felt tears streaming down my face quickly.

"Melissa. I went too far with her. You probably remember her." Holly said.

"Get out." I said.

"Melissa." She whispered.

"I said get out!" I screamed and lunged at her quickly.

Emily... Who is that? Why does it hurt so much when I hear her name?

So I'm gonna be writing a Halloween story guys!! Should it be a fanfic or no? Opinions please!!:)
