The Prophecy Luna's POV

Chapter 44: i love you so much it hurts

I wake up feeling like I've been hit by a bus and I turn around seeing Toby fast asleep beside me, I scoot closer to him as he wraps his arms around me and I dig my head into his chest taking in his scent "how are you feeling" I hear him ask, I wrap my hands around his neck and lift my head so I can see him "I feel like I was hit by a bus" I whisper as my head is pounding, he chuckles "your so cute" he says kissing my forehead "what time is it?" I croak he laughs "1:45" I put my head back in his chest "agh" I moan. After laying there for awhile I sit up and grab my phone looking at all the photos people have posted from my party, I feel Toby sit up behind me, he puts his legs on either side of me and he wrapped his arms around my waist "how about I give you your second birthday present" he says smirking I look at him confused "why didn't you give it to me on my birthday?" I ask, he turns me around "because I couldn't" he says as he stands up "Skyla is awake at the moment though" he says as he walks out I grin as I realise what the 'present' is.
I go upstairs to the kitchen and grab some toast "baby want some bacon an eggs?" Toby asks as he grabs the bacon from the fridge "uhm... no thanks" I answer he smiles at me and kisses me over the counter "okay" he says walking over and grabbing a pan. I walk over to the couch and sit down grabbing a cushion hugging it.
yeah I felt like I'd been hit by a bus but I was the happiest I've been in ages but of course nothing lasts forever, it was bound to come to an end.

I was sitting on the floor staring at the wall no tears able to escape my eyes, I hadn't eaten in days I felt broken like apart of me was gone and I couldn't live with it.

5 days earlier...

I was sitting on my bed making a scrapbook of my birthday party, "baby!" I yell calling Toby in "yeah Luna" he says walking in half asleep I laugh at his cute sheepish look "what?" He asks as he comes and hugs me standing me up, I wrap my arms around his neck playing with his hair, he wraps his hands around my waist pulling me closer "your so cute" I say looking up at him he leans down an kisses my forehead "your the cute one" he says smiling at me I blush "your my princess" he whispers in my ear I giggle "then your my prince" I whisper back he smiles at me "I'm going to take Skyla to school today" he says walking out "okay love you" I yell out to him "love you too!" He yells back.
I fall asleep soon to be woken by Toby getting in bed beside me cuddling me I turn around wrapping my arms around him "can I wear your hoodie?" I ask as I look up at him "no I'm wearing it" he says in his childish voice I roll my eyes "whatever" I say turning back over but he pulls me back to him "no" I yell at him but she shushes me "just shut up and kiss me" he whispers I shake my head "I'm to tired" I moan turning away from him, he grabs me by the waist and turns me over putting his lips on mine, we passionately kiss for what feels like hours "I love you baby" he whispers as he kisses my cheek I turn around and fall asleep.
I wake up with the bright sun shining through my window "shit I slept longer then planned" I say to myself as I get up, I get out of bed looking at the time "shit Skylar late for school!" I yell as I quickly run to her room but she's not there I go back to my room and see a note saying:
"Dear Luna,
I am taking Sky to school so you can sleep, I love you, I'll see you soon baby.
Love Toby"
I smile at the note, I walk upstairs to the kitchen and make bacon an eggs cause it's Toby's favourite I set him a plate and leave it on the counter, I walk over to the couch and watch tv while eating.
After about an hour I start to worry at the fact that Toby isn't home I get my phone and dial his number "ring.......... ring........ ring.............. ring..........." I hear for awhile before I hear Skylas voice "mummy!" She's crying fear rushes over me "baby what's wrong?" I ask scared to hear the answer "th... they... got... him..." she whimpers "what? Who?" I ask scared "they.... shot.... daddy.." she crys i have a lump in my throat as I hear that "Mummy his... his not... awake... Mummy is he... d.... dead?" She asks sad between crys, I just drop the phone when I hear that i feel a single tear fall down my face as my whole world is falling around me, I quickly grab my phone "baby where are you?" I ask holding back my tears not wanting to scare her more "lion... street.." she whispers I take a deep breath "I'm coming baby, stay safe." I say running down to my fathers office "DAD TOBYS BEEN SHOT SKYLA IS IN THE CAR FOLLOW ME TO LION STREET!" I yell at his office door I hear his office go silent then after a few seconds I hear him running to the door but I'm already at the front door running to my car.
I speed to Toby an Skyla when I spot the car I run over to them Skyla runs to my arms balling her eyes out, I'm holding back my tears because I have to be strong, my father runs to Toby, I go to follow but Mia stops me "Skyla needs you." she says sad I sigh "but I need him.." I whisper she looks at the car then back at me "I know but be strong we will save him" Mia says hugging me I just break down crying on her shoulder "be strong" she whispers before running to the car. I fall to the ground "don't leave me Toby.." I whisper to myself half praying.
The drive home Skyla is asleep and I just stare out the window stay tears falling, "he will be alright" Mia says to me I just ignore her I don't want to talk to anyone as soon as I get home I put Skyla in bed then I walk to my room and stand in the middle of my room it just feels empty I take a deep breath then walk to the Wall and lean against it trying to stop the tears flooding my eyes, I slide down the wall and pull my knees up and wrap my arms around my legs digging my head into my knees drenching my pants with tears, I lift my head trying to wake up from this horrible nightmare but its reality why do the worst things come to the good people I look over at the bed and see Toby's hoodie siting there I grab it and hug it taking in his scent, I slowly stand up after about an hour and look around my room "how could they!" I scream as I push a lamp of my nightstand with it smashing as it hits the ground "is ruining families not enough!?" I scream as I push a chair over I punch the wall leaving a hole then I start trashing my room anger taking over "how could they?!" I whisper to myself as I fall to the ground, I feel like I'm drowning, I can't breath, I don't want to I feel like apart of me is gone I curl into a ball crying trying to fall asleep but I can't I feel like my hearts been ripped out and torn into 1,000 pieces, I'm broken but I have to be strong for everyone else. Why does life have to be so hard, I love him so much it hurts.
