Twin Rivalry// Merrell Twins

Chapter 18

It was a stormy afternoon, Vanessa and Veronica were getting rid of stuff. They wanted to disappear their grief but they realise they can't. 'Nessa do you remember when dad told us about the story when mom was pregnant with us?' 'Yeah. Dad told us that story every time when theres a storm.' Veronica smiles. 'I just can't believe what happened even yesterday.' Veronica frowns. 'Me too, Roni.' *Thunder* 'Its cold lets put up the fireplace.' 'Okay, Roni.'

Vanessa's POV

I was in the living room, reading a book when I hear a doorbell I quickly rush , thought it was Chris , it wasn't. 'Hello Officer Tom, how are you?' 'I'm doing great. Thank you. Can I come in?' 'Sure. What is it?' 'Your mom and dad had some ripped photos behind their car.' They gave me some old pictures of my parents. I was scared. 'What are they?' 'Not sure. We thought that you would know.' 'I'm sorry but I don't know.' I didn't want to say anything. 'I guess I'll leave now.' 'Officer Tom, can I have the photos.' 'Sure. Good day.' I smile. I went to my room and tried to rearrange the photos. Then, I heard footsteps approaching.'Hey who came by today?' No response. 'Are you alright?' 'No.' 'Nes, he didn't left you. He loves you.'  'If he loved me , he could've ripped that ticket and stayed.' 'He didn't have a choice. Neither did ......' 'Crawford?' 'Yeah.' *Nessa sniffs* 'Nessa what are you doing?' 'Nothing.' 'Nessa? Nessa! What is this?' 'Nothing! Now would you leave now! You're making things worse!' I push her out and slammed the door in her face. Then, I locked the door. I felt so bad. But I continued. She shouts. 'Its 7.30! We could still stop them.' I thought about it and looked at the clock. She was right. I had a choice.

Veronica's POV

I can't stop thinking about Crawford we are not even a couple but I have a feeling and I have to let out that feeling. I miss him. I have to stop him! Should I? If I stop him, is he the one? Nessa opens the door.'Roni we have to stop them.' I smile and then she smiles. 'Okay then.' We rush to the airport but couldn't find a parking. 'Ugh! Oh theres one right there!'

Chris's POV

As I waited for my flight to Texas with my brother , Crawford and my dad. I thought she would be here. To stop me. But. No. I didn't see her. How I am heartbroken to leave the girl that I love. And I thought ..... . 'Chris!!!!! Chris!!!!! Don't *breaths heavily* leave *breaths heavily* me.' 'Nessa?' 'Chris!' She hugs me like she hasn't seen me for hundred years. Me too. I missed her. And I hugged her so tight. 'I thought you left me.' She says as she still hugs me. 'I would never leave you. Well except at Kansas. I'm sorry.' She laughs. Oh how I love how she laughs. 'I love you. 'I love you too.' 'Crawford! Craw.....ford!' 'Veronica! What are you doing here?' 'I came *breaths heavily* to stop you. And I brought you Mcdonalds.' 'Thank you?' They hugged. And I'm still curious what are they. Then, our dad stands there when we hug the Merrell twins. 'Flight NH102 is now boarding. 'Crawford, Chris.' He gives us a serious look. 'Its time to go.' Our dad said it to us and left with our bags. He gets his ticket checked and as he took a step on the plane, he goes back to us. 'You guys can stay.' He goes to Veronica and Vanessa and says; Take care of my boys. He left. Just like that.
