Fall For Him, Not Her.

Chapter Sixteen.

The room remained still, and silent.
The tears were streaming down my cheeks, there were eyes all on me and Zeke.
He looked unsure what to do.
What had me confused, was why dad looked like he wanted to laugh.
His fucking daughter died, what was so humorous about this?
Alison even looked like, she wanted to crack this smile on her face.
I'm sorry, did I fucking miss something.
I looked to Zeke, who just looked as confused as I did.

"Why the hell are you guys grinning like that?" I hissed, tears falling.
Dad walked up to me, his hands resting on both of my shoulders.
He smiled softly.
"What did you think, I mouthed to you when you walked in?" He asked.
I glared.
"You said, she didn't make it." My bottom lip was trembling, my whole body was stiffer than anything.
I didn't understand, why he was smiling.

"Go to room, 105." Alison told me, walking up to me.
"I don't want to go to anymore rooms! Tell me whats so great, that you have to smile." I hissed.
Alison crossed her arms now.
"Just, do it." She sighed now.
I looked to dad who nodded.
I frowned, taking Zeke's hand.

"Ah, just you." The doctor said now, his arms crossed.
I glared. "What? Why?" I snapped.

Zeke's hand fell from mine.
"Just go, it's fine." He smiled softly at me.
I wiped my eyes, before following after the doctor to room 105.
I felt sick, I didn't want to walk through the door.
My body was telling me to turn now, or I'd only regret it.

*Flashback, 9 years ago.*

A child, no older than eight, sat on the grass; crying hysterical.
Hot tears, rolling down her round cheeks, as she wiped her eyes; at the same time trying to hide them.
"What are you crying about?" Her sister, nine years of age, asked.
A judging expression, on her face.
The younger sniffled.
"Mommy said, you were going to leave if you kept seeing that important guy who showed up today." She cried.
Emma frowned, kneeling in front of Winnie.
"Stop crying, dummy. I'm not going anywhere, I'm only nine and a half." She grinned.
Winnie only began to cry harder now.
"So, y-you are going to leave me." She cried.

Emma sighed, bringing her sister into a hug.
"No, I told mom I was staying here, and when the two of us get older. We will go see that important guy, you're my little sister. Which means, your stuck with me." She stuck her tongue out at the other.
Winnie wiped her eyes, sniffling before grinning.
"You really mean it?" She asked.
Emma nodded, smiling.
"Yup! Sisters for ever, we gotta take Tami with us.. pretty sure, she'd hate me if I just took you." She stated.
Winnie nodded, smiling brightly.
"Okay!"

*End of flashback.*

"Sisters for ever.. heh." I walked into the room, this curtain covering the other side of the room, just like Tami's.
my brows only furrowed, in pain as tears escaped, from what I was witnessing.

Emma, was laying in a bed, barely awake but her eyes were on me.
"Hey.." She greeted me.
No fucking way.
I covered my mouth, trying to contain the sobs.
"I thought you were d-dead..! Daddy said-"

"She made it through." Dad now interrupted, walking into the room.
I looked to him, more tears falling.
"I made a huge mess, in the waiting room.. LEARN TO MOUTH WORDS BETTER, YOU JERK!" I hissed, playfully punching him in the chest.
I unlocked the locket, turning into Winnie before I ran to Emma's side.
Gently, wrapping my arms around her.

"What are you crying about?" Emma teased, smiling weakly at me.
I glared softly, tears and a runny nose.
"You're not allowed to drive, ever again!" I hissed at her.
Emma grinned with a nod.
"I don't feel like driving... my head is still fuzzy, how is Tami?" She asked us.
I looked at her.
"She's doing better.. how are we supposed to meet that important guy, if your off trying to get yourself killed." I teased.
Emma cracked a smirk.
"You make a good point." She grinned.

"Alright, lets let your sister rest.. and possibly go get more food.. I'll pay your boyfriend back, later." Dad told me.
I nodded, letting my hand fall from Emma's.
I looked to her, tears in my eyes as I smiled.
"I'm glad your okay." I said.
Emma grinned.
"It takes more than a wreck, to keep me down, see you soon." She said.

Later that night, at the house.
I was forced, to sit in the living room with dad, Alison was here and Zeke was upstairs.
He wanted to stay the night, after the day we've had.
I looked at my lap, I went back to being Drew, only because I was comfortable as a guy more than I was a girl.

Alison wasn't making any kind of rude remarks, which was nice.

"I guess, we've had enough scares for one day." Dad said, breaking the silence.
I looked to him with a nod.
Alison looked to me.
"You don't look too thrilled, your dad invited me back over here." She stated.
I shrugged.
"Usually, when your in the same room as me, your bashing on my life style; along with calling me god awful names.. So I'm not exactly, happy, to know you came over." I responded, truthfully.
I wouldn't lie to her, she's broken my fucking heart.
She disowned me, calling me a abomination.
I was her broken child.

Alison looked at me, this pained expression on her face.
"Your father and I have been talking, since the day you three abandoned m-"
"Abandoned you!?" I screamed, tears in my eyes now.
"You took one look at me, at Drew! And the first words that left your mouth, were 'get out.' You abandoned me! Your broken child!" I snapped.
Dad remained silent, he knew this wasn't his fight.
He knew I'd explode.

I glared at her.
"You despised me, for being fucking happy! You hated the idea, of me becoming someone I wasn't! I will not apologize for this! I won't say sorry, for being in the body I wanted to be born in! You hurt me, so fucking much mom! The moment, I needed you most, the moment I wanted your approval of this. You slammed the door in my damn face, and turn the other away! I'm dead to you, and I--" My whole body was shaking, the tears were unstoppable.
I wanted to scream.
I fell to my knees, to only flinch feeling arms wrapping around me.

I lifted my head, to only find Alison there, holding onto me as tears fell from her eyes now, glaring harshly at me.
"I am a horrible person, as a woman and as a mother.. I should of supported you, like your father did the moment you came out.. I was scared, I was losing my baby girl.. to only gain a son.. I should of loved you, instead of turning into a heartless bitch.. I know, it'll take time for you to forgive me, you may never forgive me.. but you are my child, and if this is the life you want.. to be both, a boy and girl.. I won't stop you, I just want my child back." She cried now.

My brows were furrowing, I glared at her.
"Your right, it will take time for me to forgive you.. but just so you know, even after you disowned me. I never disowned you as my mom." I told her, tears slipping.
Dad was frowning softly.
I looked at her now.
"You also need to accept and forgive my obnoxious boyfriend, he was out of line earlier today." I quickly said.

Mom looked at me, before smiling weakly.
"Me and him already had our little talk, all is forgiven between us.. I just want my family back, if your willing." She said.

Tears slipped, I nodded wrapping my arms around her.
"Yeah.. I'm willing, I've missed you." I confessed.
Mom smiled into the hug.
"I missed you too."

The sound of a creaking floor, interrupted us.
All eyes fell on Zeke now.
He blinked several times.
"Is this a bad time, or should I go back to the room?" He asked.
I cracked a grin now, shaking my head.

I lied in bed, with Zeke, our hands intertwined, I glanced to him.
"Me you, the guys and Tami plus Emma need to go somewhere for spring break." I told him.
Zeke arched a brow.
"Oh? Where would you like to go?" He asked.
I shrugged, the hold on his hand tightened.
"Anywhere." I confessed.
Zeke grinned.
"Road trip?" He asked.
I grinned back now.
"Road trip." I agreed.





BECAUSE WE ALL LOVE PLOT TWISTS AND LOVE AND FORGIVENESS.
I seriously, couldn't kill off Emma.
So, I decided.
Here's to being Satan, the girls are alive and well and now Drew and his friends are thinking about a road trip?
Hm..
Will this be a cute little trip, or will it end in chaos and more heart break?
Until then.
