Storms Don't last Forever

Moving On

I run down the stairs hearing my mom call for me.

"Come on Sophia, we gotta get going" my mother said as she lets me pass her. She closes the door and locks it.

I turn around and took one last look of the house thinking about all those memories, all the pain everyone caused me. All the old friends that I left behind

nah more like they left

Im no longer the hurt girl that was stuck in that bedroom. Im moving on and I'm ready.

I run to the car and got in, I see my brother Anthony on his phone and my mom getting in the drivers seat. I put my headphones in and watch our house get smaller.

Anthony was my twin brother. We look nothing alike, he's tall and muscular, he was captain of the soccer team. He had tan skin just like mine with blonde hair and green eyes.

My mom had short blonde hair and green eyes she was so smart, I admire her so much.

But me, I look like I was adopted. I had long brown curly hair, tan skin, and green eyes.

The only thing I loved about myself

Through the whole way there, I was looking out the window saying goodbye to my city. Moving to back to the town where I grew up in Redwood City, California.

I dont know why it's called a city when its population was 2000 people.

Last time I was there was when I was 13. I was chubby and had braces. My brothers friends would always pick on me cause of the way I looked. But I would always shrug it off, sure it hurt my feelings but I could never bring myself to cry.

Now at 18 years old, I didn't have my braces anymore and I wasn't chubby. I mean I'm not skinny but I had my fat in the right places.... Kinda

What can I say tacos are my specialty

I've surprisingly been keeping touch with one of my best friends, well my only if you wanted to know. Luna has been my friend since we were babies, we grew up together until I had to move away. Over the years she's always the one that visited. She'd always tell me to go visit— I don't know why I didn't.

I tell her everything, her finding out that I was moving back made not only me but her happy.

Las Vegas was one hell of a journey, I met so many people but lost all. The bad memories hit me and my eyes started to water.

✿✿✿ FLASHBACK

I pull up in my Audi r8v10, hearing the rawr of this car gave me chills.

I stepped out, I was wearing a black long sleeve lace-up top with some denim shorts and black booties.

Normally I don't dress up nice for my races but this one felt special.

"Hey babe" I smiled when I saw my boyfriend Austin. He looked at me up and down like I was something to eat. Putting his big cold hands on my waist and pulled me closer to him, placing a forceful kiss which I returned.

Austin was 2 years older than I was. He was a sophomore in college and I was a senior in high school. He was hearing a plain black long sleeve with the sleeves rolled up you could see his tattoos on his arm. And denim jeans with black vans.

He walked me to the bar of the place and gave me a drink. I took the whole drink feeling the burn down my throat

Eh I'll just race next time

"Thats my girl" a voice said, I turned around to see my whole group of friends.

We were all laughing and drinking, I saw Austin get too comfortable with a girl but I couldn't bring myself to say anything.

The music was blasting, feeling the vibration on my feet.

"IM GONNA GO GET A DRINK!" I shouted over the music.

"I'll go with you"

I was walking to the bar with Austin by my side.

He asked the bartender for the drinks as I turned around to see my friends having a good time. I just laughed cause Kelly, one of my friends, was trying to dance but she couldn't dance for shit.

"Here." as Austin gave my the drink.

I quickly took the shot, it tasted weird but its alcohol so I'm not complaining.

I started walking toward my friends which felt like forever to get to but I started feeling drowsy.

I wasn't drinking that much I never get shit faced.

Its hard for me to get shit faced

I started to feel my knees get weak when Austin gripped my waist and headed me to the exit.

I wanted to open my mouth to say something but I couldn't when I realized his hand was over my mouth. How can no one see this happening. But it did look like him taking his drunk girlfriend home.

He opens the car door and threw me in. My eyes kept wanting to close. I had anxiety trying to figure out was was going on.

Hearing him get in and start the car, I felt scared and unsafe. He was hammered how can he drive.

I was trying to yell or even move to stop him from moving the car even further but I couldn't. I couldn't move, I felt lifeless.

The fucker roofied me

He was speeding through the streets, passing every red light. The streets weren't that busy but still.

" Just gonna take you home baby"

In the corner of my eye I see him turn to me and smile taking his eyes off the road.

Next thing I know was a bright light going black.
