Sadies POV:
"Aren't you excited? Its the first day of summer." Jammie said. She handed me my cherry slushy and after she got her lemonade, we began to walk. I sighed heavily in response to her question. Why did everyone assume you'd be happy just because its summer? Not everyone enjoyed it as much as you.A smile spread on my lips as i sipped the slushy.
"Ill admit, I am happy about this slushy." She laughed and we turned down my street; There were little kids using chalk, people on their porches taking pictures, water fights starting already. It was a peaceful street. There were white-lilac trees along the sidewalk that shaded the pavement perfectly; the sun still broke through but not in an unbearable manner, and it smelled like a mixture of warm honey/lemon with a hint of mint.
"So, what are your plans for the summer?" I thought about this question for a moment and pondered on it.
"In all honesty, my mom wanted to send me to cali for a green day concert on Thursday that i wanted to go to. After that, i'm not sure what imma do." She smiled.
"Lucky! I dont even like them, and i would still rather go to a concert...my mom wants me to go to Danny's piano recital." Her eye roll was so hard i thought she was the undertaker (from WWE?) and I laughed.
We walked back to my house and it was oddly quiet inside.
"Mom! We're gonna go swimming!" I hollered. When no reply came, we just shrugged and went up to my room. I changed into an electric orange bikini with black lining and straps, Threw my wavy black hair into a pony tail, and Jammie put on a light pink one piece that was backless, deciding to leave her hair down, and we went outside after grabbing our sun glasses and towels. I froze after stepping onto the balcony (which was where the pool was; it was "in-ground"); My mom was talking to three men who resembled green day to a T.
"What the hell?..." I muttered, confused and a bit curious.
"Hey Mrs. Potter!" Jammie yelled to my mom, getting the attention of all of them.
It was green day she was talking to.
But why?
"Sadie, we need to have a talk....about your father."
"With Green Day here?....My favorite band? What does my father have anything to do wit-..." I stopped myself and began to realize my mom was trying to tell me something, and it was settling in.
Black hair, green eyes.....she told me hed left because of business....
"Mom if this is some cruel prank or joke it is NOT fucking funny."I said, my voice trembled slightly. Not with joy, but with anger.
"Well....Its no joke. Youll be going with him tonight, actually...." My jaw dropped and i dropped my towel, not realizing it had gone into the pool water.
"A-are you s-serious?..." I had terrible anxiety, i actually had a medicinal marijuana card it was so bad. And she was going to send me with man id never met in my life who, as far as i'm concerned, abandoned me and my mom when she was 6 months pregnant.
"Mom i dont want to." I pushed it out to try and sound normal, but you could hear the strain in my voice.
Especially when it cracked in the end.
She stared at me and billie took a step towards me; in response i backed up two steps."Sadie whats the big deal? You love green day..." Jammie said. I looked at her and felt my eyes watering.
"Why would i want a father that didn't bother to try and get in contact with me?" It came out much harder than i had intended, but by then the first few tears had slipped.
"Sadie! Thats rude!" My mom hissed. I glared at her.
"Because you give a goddamn." I muttered, looking away and crossing my arms. She was a drunk. She constantly brought guys home. She was neglectful to ask how I was doing or anything to do with me really; just went about her life like she had a roommate kind of.
"This is for your bennefit." She said. I heard a car pull up and saw a guy in our drive way; black cobra convertible.
"Oh, i see. Im getting kicked out for the summer so you can get your new boy toy for longer than a few nights." I spat. The next thing i knew i felt the backside of her hand against my cheek at about 80% full force. It stung and i felt it begin to welt immediately. A few more tears slipped out and i even felt a few yelps in my breath.
"Go pack your shit." She said, walking away. I felt all of the eyes on me and my stomach began to knot; it became hard to breath all while i was shaking and the tears were streaming.
"Shit, sit down Saddie." Jammie said, grabbing my arms. She knew i was having a panic attack.
"She has anxiety?" I heard the voice of tre chime in. He was my favorite to be honest.
"Yeah..she smokes for it." I let out a small cough and gasped as my breathing calmed; i was sitting with my knees to my chest, my head down, and Jammie had begun to rub my back in slow circles. I couldn't see, but i could tell billie was still staring at me. I could feel his gaze on me like i was in trouble and he didn't know how to help.
But i didn't want his help. He was never there for me before.
why the hell begin now.
Authors Note: Ok. So i originally had this a LOT longer, it had a bit more go on between billie and Saddie, but when i went to publish it the day after i had finished the first chapter, it all got deleted and i had to start all over.
Sorry
xoxo
