After our adventures out, I leave to go to my photo shoot, well hope and I because we're both on the same team, each team had a set day for them and todays ours. When we arrive,my outfit is overalls with a baby pink crop top and a really nice tan colour hat, it isn't floppy. With a black choker with a love heart, I never wear chokers but with this look it doesn't look bad. And I just have black chunkie platform booties on and my hair is just curled because I have a hat on. Hope is wearing a periwinkle skater skirt and black crop jumper with black knee high boots. Her hair up into two space buns, baby hairs to frame her face.
"Dam girl you look good" I say as she walks out of the changing room.
"Not to bad yourself"
"This is what I would wear on a normal day"
"Same" she walks over to everyone else
I hear my phone ring, I answer it and it's Eli, he went home to see how things are going.
"Mum left, she said she needed time away, she went back to Long Island for awhile"
"I'm sorry " I'm sorry is all I could manage to say.
"Dad isn't here either " he was making it harder to find the right words to say , to make him feel better as he stacked the information on top of one another.
"Do you want me to come home?, I was going to either way."
"It's okay, your parents are fine by the way, I went in to see them" his voice disappointed and broken, knowning he had cried but was trying to sound as he usually does.
"Thanks, I'm really sorry I have to go"they call me over cause it's my turn. I have fun with the shoot, messing around, laughing. But there was a lot weighing on my mind, making me wonder the smile was hiding how i was truly feeling. No one could know what was hiding behind the happy smile. Because what they'll see, can never been unseen, unheard, you couldn't get the screams to stop ringing inside your head. It's the haunting hour, we're screams will be heard, inner demons to be released, you don't need Halloween for things to get weird and freighting trust me, I live this day constantly. The terrifying images that I picture, horrible thoughts that come to mind, if I take a moment to stop. Everything gets louder and I have to keep going for things to quite down just for a moment. I leave right away when I'm all done, I just want to sleep. It's getting late, but as I walk down the now quite hall, a tall, skinny figure stands tall waiting but for what I'm not sure. As I walk past they call my name, but in the dark lighting I can't tell who it is, intill they grab my arm softly. Looking in the soft blue eyes that belonged to Corbyn.
"You scared me"
"Sorry, is Eli here?"
"He went home, to see you and Christina."
"She left late in the afternoon, no proper goodbye, just a note. I got in the car as fast as I could and drove here, traffic took me longer then it should have."
"Eli took the train. It's quicker, he called me and told me there was no one there, how she left. She'll come back Bean."
"I know B " his eyes are like the window ps to the soul, they give away so much but yet at the same time. Withhold information, I've never seen the smiley Corbyn Besson in all 15 years I've known him to ever be upset. To never have a smile plastered on his face, I always saw him as the happy man who was Eli's father, a part of my family and who helped me through so much. But yet I feel so helpless, not knowing what to say or do. How do you tell an adult to cheer up, when there being told this by a child. Corbyn calls his son , letting him know that he'll be home shortly. Bean lift, not wanting to sleep he just wanted to wrap his now broken child in his arms. In the haunting hour.
Bella and jack wrapped in each others arms as Blue, peacefully sleeps besides them. The rain falling heavily, in the dark night sky, head full of dreams and nightmares. As Bailey lays wide awake unable to sleep because of the day she experienced, the information she had taken in and the thought of Eli. Alone in his house, knowing his mum left and his dad isn't there to be there when his needed, Bailey knowing Eli his probably sitting in his sisters room. Looking at the massive wall full of photos, of them on hoilday, her smiling with her friends. Just being herself. The haunting hour is upon them, they just don't know it yet.
Hey guys hope you like the chapter, may be another one later. It's my birthday today but I'm still gonna try to double upset for you guys love you all. -paige ❤️
