🕶Bryce's POV🕶

Love- ləv/Submit- noun
a person or thing that one loves
"She was his one true love."

One true love?

Once I was a child, my mother used to tuck me in I asked her how she felt about dad. She said he was her one true love, and the only one for him. I told her that I would never fall in love. Her face fell but there was still this sparkle in her eyes as she told me this, "everyone has there on match. What about your match? If they don't find you, what will happen? Do you want that girl out there to me lonely for the rest of there lives wondering if true love is really a thing?" So from then on, wherever I went I looked for love. For the best in which people had in them selfs. I marked my words that I told my mom that night.

That was until her heart wore out after all her fighting with her brain tumor. She lost her memory after the surgery to get it out. After her surgery I was the first one they let into the room. I was four then. She remembered me. Only me, not my father. And when she dies that night, her last words were for me. They weren't for my father.

My father blamed me. I don't know what I did wrong that day. However whatever it was it just have been really important, if it meant abuse. My father abused me for years until Jace found out when I was in third grade. I don't remember how I made it through my life that long, coming home everyday to the same thing.

He hung the belt in my closet so he wouldn't have to waste time looking for it. He thought that I wasn't even important enough for him to take off his own belt that he was wearing.

The police arrested him for a full ten years, until Jace's family took me in. Even with there own family problems and the divorce. Jace's mom left and Mr. Collins got remarried to Kimber's mom.

That's how me and Kimber became friends. Whenever his dad picked us up from school Kimber would come to me and talk to me about her day. Which of course involved Ashley. I could never remember Kimber's name, I called her Ashley's friend. After all, they were sitting together at lunch when I first met Ashley. But that was before I started to like with them.

My dad got let out of prison a few months ago, and ever since I've been living in the room in the mansion that Trace bought. Which is where I am right now. I hear a knock on the door, "come in!" The door swings open and I lift my head of my bed and look over at Jace who's red eyed and and Keith who's trailing behind him.

Jace lifts a cardboard box, and puts it on the my bed. "We found this on Trace's .desk."

"And?" He pulls out a few sheets of notebook paper and hand them to me.

To Kimber,

When I heard you were dead

I couldn't even cry

Too darn shocked

Quests that I didn't expect someone as strong as you

To just

Leave
