[ Misunderstood: Ch. 5 ]
He smiled back, sending my heart into a beating frenzy. That dang smile.
I turned my eyes back to the ocean, trying to continue my story. "I fell deeper and deeper into my attention craving stupor and it got to the point where the teachers were thinking about removing me from the school. I was 15 at the time, and it just got worse from there.
I got a boyfriend the same year, and he was just bad news, but I didn't care... he made me feel loved... like he was always there for me.. but he wasn't and I guess my need for attention got in the way of my common sense.."
Jack's brows were furrowed, but he said nothing.
"Me and my boyfriend were hell on wheels. We got drunk, we got high, we stole.. my parents finally ended the relationship on their own. I was devastated because the people who gave me nothing took away the one person that gave me something... something to live for... that light down at the end of a seemingly never ending tunnel."
"So at the end of sophomore year, when I was sixteen, I moved in with my brother. I stopped drinking, doing drugs, and stealing when I moved.
He's 22 but he has a job that forces him to travel a lot, so I pretty much have the apartment to myself. I've been alone ever since... I'm 17 now." I looked down the cliff, feeling slightly misty eyed.
I felt him pull me into his chest, and I buried my face into it. Then a realization hit me... he was the first person I had ever opened up to. Wasn't it too soon?
OMG THAT'S THE SHORTEST THING I'VE EVER WRITTEN! Anyway, thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed! 💕
