I call Felix because for some reason he's the only one I want to comfort me right now.
'Ring' 'ring'
"Hello?" He says
"H-hey" I stutter still trying not to cry
"What's wrong?" He says quickly
"Can you come and get me I'm downtown?" I say
"Yes I'll be there in 5 minutes" he says and I can tell he's already walking down his stairs
I sit down on the side walk and wait for him, I see him pull up and he gets out of the car and rushes over to me. I stand up and hug him tight and start sobbing the kind of sobbing that you never think your going to stop. He just holds me and let's me cry and I don't know how long I've been standing here but finally I pull away and we get in his car. I don't say anything and neither does he the entire ride to my house.
"Hazel" he looks at me as he parks in his driveway
"My mom called me and invited me to dinner with her and her new boyfriend and his daughter and I really missed my mom so I said yes and tried my best to dress up and be who she wanted me to be like her boyfriends daughter but as much as I try I always will be a dissapiontment" I cry
"I'm sorry I didn't know all that but haz its her lost" he say holding my hand
"I am a dissapiontment I ruin everything" I say
"That's not true" he tells me
"I pushed you all away. When my dad died freshman year I lost a huge part of myself and I felt empty and my mom didn't help as soon as he died she despised me all of a sudden she would give me dirty look and say mean things like it should of been me and that she wished I would just leave her alone. She moved out when I was 16 and I see her once a year and get three phone calls a year" I say refusing to look at him
"Why didn't you tell me or any of us?" He says getting a little choked up
"Because I thought you all deserved better and that maybe if i was alone I wouldn't disappoint anyone and I wouldn't get hurt" I finally look at him
He grabs my face gently "you are the nicest, caring, funniest girl I've ever meet you may try to act all tough but you care about other people more than yourself and you deserve better"
I start crying again and he holds me "you want me to spend the night?" He asks me
"Can we stay at your house I don't want to go home" I say as I try to stop crying
"Yes of course" he says
