My Life in Snapshots: Kacey's Story

Chapter 26

This is a really short chapter, so I will probably post a nother story later. Hope you like it!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I sprung out from my bed and ran out the door. To my surprise there was Logan standing by the kitchen looking out the window. He heard my footsteps so he turned around but I just attacked him in a huge hug.

He held me tight and never let go. 

“I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry.” he repeated as I could hear him crying. He was really hurt by what he did.

I didn’t say anything but cry with him as I stayed close to him not letting my arms unlock each other.

Looking up at his face he wiped my tears away as I wiped his away. This moment was special, he wasn’t afraid to cry in front of me, it was the moment where we started to patch the hole that was in our relationship.

“I don’t blame you if you don’t forgive me yet, I’m just glad you are here in my arms.” he said.

“I was really hurt by what you did, what you said. I thought you would never be back to the Logan I fell in love with.”

“I was just going through a tough time, and I didn’t want to admit it because I didn’t want to show a sign of weakness in me.”

“Lets just say we will work through this together, you are not off the hook yet.” I smiled.

“That’s okay, I just wanted you to talk to me.”

Just then Alexia and Taryn walked through the door and Alexia started to freak out at the sight of Logan. 

“Get away from her now!” she said pushing him.

“Alexia its alright, we are alright.”

“Do you not understand what he did to you?” she yelled.

“What did he do?” Taryn asked.

“Taryn just go watch TV.” I said to her as I looked back at Alexia. “Alexia, it was an accident, he didn’t mean to.”

“Yeah, didn’t mean to push you, didn’t mean to leave a bruise on your arm!”

“Shh.” I whispered.

“Its okay, I don’t mind that you are angry at me, and I expect that it may take a long time for you to trust me again.” he said to her.

She just gave him the evil eye and walked away, sitting next to Taryn on the couch. I looked back at him and stared.

“You should probably get home.” I said gulping.

“Yeah.” he said leaning in for a kiss but I moved and just gave him a hug. He then finally left.

I knew I wasn’t ready to do anything serious, like kiss. I honestly didn’t know what to do anymore. I was glad that I was back with Logan, that he was back, but knowing what happened still haunts me, and still hurts. Since Alexia knows what happens its going to be hard being around her. Well around both Taryn and Alexia knowing I basically gave up on them.

This was the time I wished my parents were here so I wouldn’t have to deal with the fact I was the adult here who had to take care of my sisters.

Being behind in school work I knew I wasn’t going to finish in time to graduate. Graduation was only two weeks away. I was still suspended and I have work beyond work to finish and I knew absolutely nothing.

That’s when I got an unexpected call.

“Hello?” I asked not knowing the number that showed up on my cell phone screen.

“Kacey, is this you?” the voice said.

“Yes, may I ask who’s calling?”

“Its Mrs. Keller.” she said. Why would she call me? More importantly, how did she get my number? “Sorry, this may sound weird that you’re history teacher is calling you. But I do know that you want to graduate and you have been absent from school. That’s why I want to tutor you so you are able to graduate with the rest of your class.”

“Really? You want to help me?”

“Of course I do! You are one of my best students. I hate to see you fail your senior year.”

“Well thank you so much. I appreciate it. When do we start?”

“We can start tomorrow after I leave from school. I will bring all your work from your classes.”

“Thank you so much Mrs. Keller.” I said before I hung up. 

I was speechless. I was excited. I couldn’t stop smiling. I finally have a chance to continue high school, to finally graduate, finally finish something.
