You Put The Stars In My Sky

chapter 1

That feeling, the feeling of when you smile for a split second. In that split second you forget all of your pain. Every bad thing on your mind disappears, everything that hurt you goes away. That smile, it's the beginning of your happiness and you know its okay to smile again. All your marked scares people draw on you just vanishes.

Lauren sat there. The knife in her hand. Even though everything in her body tried to stop, she was shaking. Everything she tried wasn't enough. She was breathing shaky, stuttered and stumbled breaths. She didn't even notice the nearly black blood dripping slowly from her hands at the choked grasp of the knife.
(flash back)
"Lauren you look horrible are you okay? Does it hurt?" Clara said.

"Yeah ma I'm fine had it pretty bad in dance today that's all. Nothing hurts im fine"

"Lauren, are you su-" Lauren interrupted
"Ma stop! I want this okay you know that."
"Mija, i want you to have a real job. I want you to have the world but.. You should just live a normal life."
"Ma this is real i told you before i want this forever just stop!"
Lauren snapped out of her thoughts.
That's when it happened.
The glass shattering a loud and terrifying noise. She knew exactly what it was.
Clara screamed at the very top of her lungs and put all she had in that scream. "STOP!"
It was a scream in dead silence. The baby screaming his head off because of this loud scream in a heavy sleep. 

Lauren ran into the kitchen and grabbed a knife from the kitchen and stormed into the bathroom. She made sure every lock was locked and every window was blocked. Lauren turned the lights off. 

Damn it Lauren! If you breathe any louder he's going to find us and you'll fucking die shut up! You can't die right now you have your whole life ahead of you.
She remembered the flashback that she just had. She tried her best to pull it all together. She flashed her fastest up the stairs with the knife to her moms room.
"Ma are you okay?" Clara stared at her blankly yet horrified and handed her the baby vastly.

Ma I'm about to call the police

Clara slowly walked down stairs and Lauren ran into her sister's room
It wasn't what was happening that scared the fuck out of her, that broke her, it was the look in the baby's eyes, the fact that Clara's ex boyfriend was the one who scared his own son. She looked down at her dripping hand and looked up. Lauren gave her brother to her little sister and she ran to see if clara was okay. The truth is no one was. Everyone was broken. Crying. But it was a million times worse for Clara. Lauren couldn't find Clara so she stormed silently into her sister's room. The door slammed open. Lauren heard the sirens wailing, everyone's breathing slow down, everything. The broken glass noises stopped and everyone's breath sharpened when the door pounded open.

THEY'RE HERE!
