The Weeds

project-11 our childhoods

*Song of the chapter*half a heart -one direction

Faith's POV

We all gathered in the dumb projects, with our chairs in a circular form and listened in on everyone's past and or childhood time. I decide to get this over with, so I went first probably going to regret exploiting my life to strangers. So I'm going to sum it up and leave out some parts only truly one person knows about...

In the past/Childhood- Faith's~ 10 years ago At the beach shore "every thing was great back then". I walked on the pier, I dipped my feet in the icy coldness of the water. I glanced around to find my parents seating in beach chairs both yapping away on their phones, I sighed wishing when can they spend some time with me. I could help but feel someone else's presence with me, not like a ghost or anything. My gaze fell upon a boy who looked about my age he had icy blue bright igniting eyes, that you could probably see from a mile away. His hair darkish/ lightish brown hair. It was dark brown but with light brown taking over. He smiled also dipping his feet in the water. Putting his Nike's next to my converses. Instantly I knew we were different not because of our taste in shoes because he has dark hair I have light. I gazed back at my birth parents they didn't deserve the title "mom and dad". I gazed back at my hands suddenly finding interest in them. The boy took my hand placed in it his, I gasped but he kept it secure I liked that. I smiled back at that we were best friends ever since he knew how I felt. We walked through it together. I used to call him Rhys, we did everything together everyone in my family or his would say "look out Its Rhys and faith nothing can tear them apart, they're inseparable" I couldn't help but shed a few tears from that memory. Then of course something happened he moved away leaving me feel empty. And everything started to fall apart. He was my missing puzzle piece, He was half my heart. He helped me through the darkness, but led me back in the darkness when he left. I loved him.

"Why the fuck did I dive in, if I knew it was going to hurt me"

I heard a chair scrape against the carpet floor, and then it hit me. Rhys was here yesterday. All the missing puzzle pieces started to fill into place in my mind, it all made sense. I ran out after him, shouting his name I couldn't help but realize that that was the loudest I have ever been.

But I pushed that in the back of my mind, and focused on Rhys.

I ran up to him and caught my breath. Shivers were covering my arms, running my hands in an up and down motion creating warmth, but my arms felt much warmer. Rhys had given me his maroon colored jacket that I always loved to wear, and secretly loved the smell because his cologne was on it.

I silently thanked him. Is it the truth? he whispered like people were around. um...I, I couldn't speak so I instantly nodded. What about Logan? my eyes widen as big as saucers. how did you..? Faith I hear things but I want the truth, I can give you time to decide. But who do you like better? I couldn't make it to his eyes.

I was about to give him my answer but he held up his hand to prevent me from speaking. I was about to shout "You, You" but the truth is I honestly didn't even know the answer myself.

think about it, ok? in the mean time lets spend some time together I haven't seen you in forever.

he smiled.

I loved that smile.

Logan's POV

My mind was racing with thoughts. I couldn't help but question does she like me? Stop you hate her! She never liked you! go save Lexi!

"I love Lexi" I kept thinking, Which worked it made the faith thoughts vanish away.

I liked the sound of that.

Rhys's POV

I couldn't but smile at her, I truly missed her. Her confession scared me. Knowing that your the cause for her pain,other than her parents of course and her family shunning her.

Why couldn't I take the pain not her! it's so unfair! I can't control what my mom does, even though she died my dad didn't need to go crazy and sleep with women and do dumb actions. I couldn't help but think "ya, such a great role model".

But faith was the bright side to my dark days. She was half my heart,my missing puzzle pieces, she was the other part of me. She is the love of my life.

I couldn't help but smile at that thought, I hope she likes me more I felt butterflies swarm in my stomach, and knots of nerves.

Damn, I sound like some hormonal girl...

I could never tell her! she likes Logan anyways! so why does it matter?..

My mind- "Because you love her"

I just don't want to hurt her..again.

I couldn't help but know that I'm the cause of her suicide, her actions, I'm the cause of hurting her.
