Don't Go Soft (Hunter Rowland)

Truly Broken

Hunters POV-
"Hey hunter?" Brandon asked entering my dark, cold room. I cautiously stuck my head out from the corner of my blanket cocoon to watch him slowly walk into my room, and I laid there in silence waiting for him to say something again. After about three minutes of silence he finally spoke again "Are you okay? Why aren't you out with Rose?" He questioned me and it hit me hard, as a single tear rolled down my cheek, wiping it quickly away I pull my head back into my cocoon, and silence falls upon us again as I refused to answer his question. About a minute later I feel him sit on the edge of my bed, as he suddenly pulled the corner of my blanket from where my face once emerged from, and I open my eyes to face my little brother. "Hunter talk to me. What happened?" He questioned me once again about the one thing I never wanted to talk about. "Rose is gone Brandon. Gone. She's not coming back. Okay?!" I snap at Brandon through clenched teeth, trying not to cry. After a second of us practically having a staring contest I laid back down, crawling back into my blanket cocoon. "Hunter, do you want to talk?" He asked me, "NO, BRANDON LEAVE ME ALONE JUST GO AWAY. GET OUT" I yell at the one person who was trying to help throwing my arm out of my blankets pointing to the door. A minuet later I felt the bed move, as he stood up and walked towards the door, I listened as he opened the door, and shut it behind him. I laid there, and I simply let the tears run down my eyes.
Roses POV-
I've been laying in my bed sobbing for the past couple hours, I don't know how long I've been here or when it started. I lost track of time a while ago, I miss him. "Rose, I need you to come down here right now sweetheart I need to talk to you" my mom yells to me from downstairs, I throw myself off my bed, standing up, simply walking over to my mirror, to hide the fact I've been crying, and I yell back trying to not let my voice break, "y-yeah, I'll be right down!" After about five minutes I turn away from my mirror as another single tear rolls down my cheek, I quickly wipe it away and turn to my door, walking over I open my door, taking a deep breath before heading down the stairs. I turn the corner to see my mom sitting on the couch, I turn my head to the left to see Melody coloring at the kitchen table, I take one last breath to hold in all my tears that want to come pouring out. I then look back to the couch and stop in front of my mom. "Rose sit down." She says looking down, avoiding all eye contact and slowly pats the spot on the couch next to her, I sit next to her and she continues, "I need you to stay calm and not get mad. Promise?" She let the words fall out her mouth before looking up to look at my face, but not my eyes. "I promise" I say back, as she begins her story..
