Misunderstood ✅

005

I sat on the log looking into the fire as the others huddled near a tree close to one of the tents , something about what happened on the tree felt uneasy and the way that Madison and Nathan acted didn't make it any better. I placed my head on my hands and my elbows on my knees I really need to stop thinking some much because now it's starting to hurt my head.

"Nevaeh" Dr.Rose said softly running her hand on my head as she sat down

"Doctor" I said lifting my head up so I could face her

"How are you doing ?" She said titling her head I hated it when Doctors do that it just drives me insane

How was I doing ? Well my brothers dead and people are blaming me for his death , Every night I have nightmares about the accident oh and I'm in a mental institution "I'm okay" I nodded my head

"Hmmmmm" she said

"I know about the accident" she said in a comforting voice placing her hand on the small on my back

I shifted uneasily I could feel my blood starting to rise "You don't know anything about the accident !" I said standing up

"Your Aunt-"

"Wasn't there , nobody was there" My voice raised "I screamed for help and nobody was there" It was quiet everyone's eyes were on me a tear wanted to escape from my eyelids I furiously shook my head keeping my composure I haven't cried in over 10 years so why should I start now I can't believe my aunt would do that it's not her business in fact it's not anyone's business

"Excuse me" I said walking away from the fire and past the tree where Madison stood with her friends and headed into the woods I could feel deep gazes at the back of my head but I just continued on

With my head down and my hands in my pockets I walked and walked not aware of my surroundings I walked and walked for what felt like ages , this is why I prefer to be alone because nobody will ask me about my brother or about my life and what made me like this I cannot believe that my Aunt told Dr.Rose it wasn't her place to do so nor is it anybody else's I couldn't explain what and how I was feeling and why ?.

I stopped in the middle of the forest and looked up , this place looked familiar I just don't know how, I found myself sitting on the rock with my knees to my chest and my head on top of my knees

"Nevaeh" Leo's voice echoed through the woods

"Leonardo I swear if you say something" I furiously said to Leo on the verge of loosing my mind

"I wasn't going to say anything" He said raising his hands up coming closer and sitting on the rock next to me I let out a sigh and placed my head back on my knees at that moment I put up my walls and shut off the world , nothing was in view it was just me the darkness and my thoughts

Leonardo's P.O.V
I watched her purple hair dance in the wind it moved so silky and swift , her back was curved and her body was in fetal the fetal position she looked fragile and broken . She lifted her head slowly and pushed her hair out of her face she looked out into the horizon with a blank expression I wonder what she was thinking about and why. I decided to move my gaze away from her and fixed it on the tattoo on my arm. I remember when I got this tattoo I was so angry that day but then again when am I not.

"Why are you still here ?" She questioned I looked up to see her curious facial expression

"I couldn't leave you here" I simply said and shrugged my shoulders , I was both lying and telling the truth.

"It's not like I asked you to stay"

"You didn't have to"

"Why are you such an asshole ?" She said I could feel the intensity in her voice the way she held back all the anger and frustration . My blood was boiling not from the fact that she just swore me but from the fact that I didn't have it in me at that particular time to respond to her rude remark instead I just pushed down my anger and breathed

"Well when people paint you out to be someone you end up becoming that person"

"So just because they paint you out to be someone doesn't mean you have to live up to their expectations"

I chuckled a low chuckle and looked out into the horizon she's so gullible so oblivious to this world to this cruel evil world , "And yet here you are living up to their expectations"

"Excuse me you don't even know me"

"Don't do that excuse me bullshit anyone with two eyes can see your act is fake" There it was her breaking point the one that I've been longing to see her eyes filled with an emotion that I couldn't completely understand

"You're one to talk"She said jumping off the rock and storming off into the woods

I followed her and once I got near her I grabbed her arm and pulled her to face me ,"What are you trying to say"

"Im trying to say that you're so mean" She jerked away from me and pushed against my chest "You're so angry at yourself so angry at the world and you don't even realize that your hurting everyone around you" She said walking up and down "And the funny thing is that at the end of the day the person who will be the most hurt is yourself" With that said she walked away and disappeared in the woods

The closest thing near me was a rock with one swift movement I threw it at a tree , the force of my throw must've been large as a large piece of bark fell to floor . I was so angry she had no right to talk to me like that to analyze me she didn't know me . The more I though about Nevaeh the more angrier I got and the more things I threw.
