Leaving Me

Chapter 31

They are beautiful!

Franky's POV (Finally)

I just got off the phone with Ellena and turns out we are going to the mall. She is making me because apparently I haven't stopped sulking about Luke.

I can't help it I haven't seen in him in a really long time. I try and keep up with the time changes but I have school.

I get out of bed for maybe the third time this whole week to take a shower.

When I get to the bathroom I'm horrified by the sight of me in the mirror.

The bags under my eyes are huge and dark. I look like shit.

I just need to take a shower and maybe that will help.

.............

I get out of the shower and look in the mirror to see any improvement. Nope.

Sighing deeply I walk out of the bathroom.

I open the door to my room and a smell of over used perfume and sweat fills my nostrils.

Good lord am I disgusting. I'm not surprised though I've barely left my room and I think I lost a few pounds in tears.

It sickens me how much I've been crying over Luke. I'm trying to be happy for what he doing but I can't take this long distant shit, its not easy.

I look around my messy room to spot my brush. Ah there it is, under a pile of dirty laundry.

I pick up my brush and rake through my tangling wet hair.

I open up my dresser and get out sweatpants, a band shirt, and my undergarments.

I get dressed and now I have to text Ellena that I'm ready.

I walk down the old steps that lead to the front door. I grab my purse off of the hook and slip on flops flops, not having the energy to to tie my shoes.

I open the door and my eyes fill my pain from not seeing the sun in about two weeks. "Owe shit!" I wince in pain.

"Are you okay honey?" I hear my dad yell from the kitchen.

I then turn around and nod at him from where he is sitting.

Just as I am about to say something to my dad I hear a car pull into the drive way.

"I'm leaving! Bye dad!"

"Bye honey! I'm glad your getting out of the house!" My dad yells excitedly from the kitchen.

I give him a thumbs up and a fake smile and head out the door.

"Hey Ell" I say to Ellena as I get into the passenger side of her car.

"Uh hey hobo." She responds clearly talking about my appearance.

"Shut up we are just going to the mall. Plus you made me go anyways, I didn't even want to go." I retort back to her with a little more attitude then I meant.

"Hey hey I'm just joking Franky!" She puts her hands up in surrender.

She starts the car and pulls back out of my drive way. 

"Hey look I'm sorry I snapped at you Ell, I just miss Luke a lot. I don't want him gone any longer."

She looked over at me with a sympathetic look. "Can I be straight with you Franky?" She said to to me staring at the road again.

"Yeah I suppose."

"I miss Calum so much Franky but I haven't been moping around in my room and crying my eyes out. I'm not saying that to be rude of any sort I'm just concerned why you are acting this way. I've excepted that they are going to be gone for awhile, why can't you? They are living out there dreams now its time for you to realize that and be happy again."
