Making a Difference (sequel to PDA)

Ch.44: Making of a Summer

~Grace~ 

Everything was now amazing in my life. Justin was still part of my life but I would never call him dad because I already had two dads to begin with. Lilith headed off to New York the instant school was over and I was happy for her and everything. Albany and Andy left to go to the west coast I guess. Chris was already gone and dealing with his training camp for Liverpool. My dad went back to New York to do another production. I got to see him perform for the first time. I was proud of him truly. I was in my room just practicing dancing, I was packing up a suitcase because for the summer, I was heading to London to partake in a famous ballet company. My dad was going to come visit me and my father in London and I was actually excited to be performing actually. I heard a knock and I felt him wrap his arms around me. "Have I told you that I am so lucky to have you in my life" He kissed my cheek and swayed with me. I turned towards him with a smile on my face. "I'm glad I have you too Robbie" I told him and he played some music and we just danced around my room. I heard a knock on my door and there stood my father and Robbie's mom. She was smiling at me. I was now wearing short sleeves, I wasn't worried about my scars in the slightest. "Robbie, we have to go to LA" His mom said and he nodded his head before turning towards me. "You go out there and make me proud" Robbie grabbed my hands. Robbie was off to LA to pursue a career with a different dance prestige group. "I will and you do the same for me" I told him and Robbie kissed my cheek. "I'll see you late Gracie" Robbie said bye to me and I watched as my very first boyfriend leave me to across the world. I sighed while fiddling with my hands. I looked around my room, it was practically empty. "Ready to go to London" my father asked me and I just nodded yes at him. I loaded up the car with everything and I took one look at my house that would be empty for months to come. I sighed while tapping on the window seal and that's when I told my father to stop the car. I knocked on Uncle Liam's house and he opened it while holding onto Sawyer. He just stared at me. I hugged him tight and smiled at him. "Thank you" I whispered to him and Uncle Liam gave me a small smile and nodded his head. I went back into the car. "Ready now" My father asked me. "They are two more stops" I told him and my father drove me to another house. I rung the doorbell and Aunt Cora opened the door. I had been avoiding Uncle Harry ever since he slapped me across my face. I had a mark that would never go away. "Grace" Aunt Cora greeted me. "I need to say goodbye to Uncle Harry" I told Aunt Cora and she got her husband quickly. The rain started pouring down but I didn't mind getting wet. Uncle Harry took one look at my face and touched it. I hugged him tight. He hugged me back tight. He smelt like vanilla and comfort. "I want to say thank you for everything you did for me. I'm going to make it and you were the one person who helped my parents work out" I ranted to Uncle Harry and Uncle Harry pushed his hair out of his face. "Thank you but I'm sorry for what I did to you" Uncle Harry apologized to me and i just shook my head. "I forgive you a long time ago" I told him and hugged him tight. "I should go. I have one more stop to go before I leave for London" I said to him and I watched my uncle and aunt closed the door and I sat in the passenger seat. We stopped at tombstone. I walked up to the gravesite of someone that I was close to. 

The stone was still one of the best stones that I had a chance to see. I sat down on a wet grass and I sighed to myself. "I'm pursing my dreams Levi. i just wished you could do the same thing. It's a shame that you missed your 17th birthday. I always just thought you would always be there with me. I never thought you would die and leave Lilith and Chris by themselves without their brother. It wasn't your fault but man, you made a difference to everyone that you had a chance to talk to. Your father fell apart and but your parents are strong and no one will ever forget you or who you are" I told him while patting the grave of Mr. Levi Styles. I dropped a rose on the stone and I smiled to myself while i huddled into my jacket to get back inside of my father's car. We parked the car and I hopped onto the plane without my father. I waved bye at my father while I was entering the terminal. For the first time, I was happy and I was actually doing something without depending on someone. Let's just say when I first came back home, I was this girl who was ashamed to be herself, a girl who used to wear black but now I can honestly say that I love colors and I wasn't ever going to be that shy 14 year old girl. I'm going to fight for what I want in life and if that means making sacrifices then so be it. I sat by the window seat and I watched and felt the plane take off in the air. I laid my head and I closed my eyes as I was about to reach for the sky and clouds.
