" legend I don't think that's a good idea " I state worried looking up at the tall tree.

I watched as legend climbed the tree, gasping putting a hand over my mouth as his foot missed a branch.

" legend, please get down "  my vision started to get blurry as tears started to form in my eyes.

Getting his foot back up he starts his journey back up to the tree.

" I'm fine Millie, I can do it " he shouted looking down below. His green eyes showed determination and no matter what I say he would still do it.

That was legend. Stubborn.

" just be careful " I shouted

My heart squeezed every time he got higher up in the tree, the leaves hiding his small figure made me panic slightly.

" legend " I shouted

" I'm oka-" his voice got cut off as I heard branches snapping.

" omg legend ! " I scream, his body landed with a loud thud in the grass.

He groaned on the ground rolling back and forth holding his jaw. Tears streamed down my face, as I helped him sit up. Blooded splattered was on his hands and jawline.

" legend, are you okay " I cried, my cries turned into sniffles as he started laughing, his thumb wiped away my tears as a shiver ran up my spine.

Pushing his hand back I bunched him in the shoulder making him land on his back.

" not funny " angrily getting up, I start to march back to the house down the street.

" Millie, wait I'm okay I'm sorry " tackling me into a hug I let out a sigh and wrap my arms around my bestfriend.

Pulling back my eyes scan his face zeroing in on the little scar in his jaw. Pursuing my lips I grab his hand to continue the walk towards the house.

" promise, not to tell Mrs. Marry "

I stared at myself in the mirror of the girls bathroom. My chest rising and falling, with every breathe I take. Panic was written all over my face, so many questions came and left that I couldn't think straight. But the most important was why did he come back ?

It's been seven years since he left, why is he back now ?

My mind is just playing tricks on me, that's not legend. Turning on the water and filling the cup of my hands I splash water in my face. Grabbing paper towels I wipe the excess water off my face looking back in the mirror.

His eyes flashed in my head, looking straight at me. Those big pale green eyes that held so many secrets, but no key to unlock them.

I can still hear him calling my name as I ran down the hallway.

Shaking my head to get the image out, I let out a breathe looking in the mirror one more time before I left the girl restroom. The halls were empty as I made me way to my locker.

I was waiting for the moment were legend would jump out of anywhere. My mind wouldn't be able to handle it.

I couldn't handle it. That's why I ran.

Seeing him made memories rush back into my mind that was slowly fading away. It brought back unforgettable memories, lies and trust. It brought back the one person I was trying so hard to forget.

Him.

Now that he's back I can't handle this emotional weight that's weighing me down.

Slamming my locker I lean my head against the cool metal. Banging my forehead against it trying to let out the frustration that was seeping through my pores.

I hate it, I hate him so much for coming back into me life. After trying so hard only for me to end up back where I'm at now. He took the little trust I've ever had and the rest of my heart the day he left me.

I want to scream and cry out my frustrations, I want to yell and say it isn't fair. But just like everything else i know life isn't fair at all. It's like I always get the short end of the stick.

Fighting back my tears and dusting off the imaginary dust on my clothes, grabbing my binders I hold them close to my chest before walking to class. I'm already 10 mins late into the lesson, lucky Mrs.shivers isn't mean.

Everyone's head snapped up as soon as I walked in. I rolled my eyes at the whispering and constant glances. I've been use to this for many years and yet it has never gotten to me. The only person to truly make me cry was legend and josh. Just seeing legend makes me wanna cry out my problems and frustrations. And josh.. is just an asshole.

" Millie take a seat " sending me a disappointed glance she continues to gone on with her lesson while I take my seat in the back of the class.

I feel jack's heated gaze in the side of my face as I sit down, I don't bother to look he's not worth looking at just like I'm not worth caring about. I tune out the girls whispering about me knowing that everyone probably already heard the news.

I wonder how long it will take for everyone to find out that legend was just like me. That he as well doesn't have any parents, thrown into a foster care with no one to love him. I wonder how they will treat him.

They will probably fake like they cared and caress him for going through that alone.

But he has parents now, people to love and care for him. Parents who took the risk of taking a little boy into there home and giving him his own room, clothes and toys. To give him the love every child craves for.

Cause I'm the end we all crave for someone to love us unconditionally.
