Winning: A Team Crafted Fanfic

Chapter 20

Kayla's Pov.

Today was graduation day. I was so excited to get out of this hell hole they call school. Synonyms to describe school included jail, hell, bitch city, suicidal enclosure, and drama center.

The graduation would be taking place at 2 pm, so I had time. I put on my dress, having a beautiful, icy blue color. There was a small see-through sash that was tied at my waist and fell separate in the air behind me. I took my only pair of diamond earrings and put them on. My mom had gotten them for me when I was only about 6 years old.

~Flashback~

"Mommy what's that box for?"

"It's your birthday present sweetie, why don't you open it?"

I took the small wrapped gift from my mother's hands and slowly tore away the wrapping paper. Inside I found a small box with a removable lid. I slid off the top and looked at it for a moment.

"Mommy what is it?"

"They are earrings sweetheart. I thought they would look beautiful on you," my mother said as she brushed my hair away from my ears.

I set the small box on the ground beside me and leaned against my mother, giving her a hug.

"I love you mommy."

"I love you too sweetheart."

~Flashback over~

A small tear escaped my eye as I realized I was starting to cry. I quickly wiped it away and took a deep breath. "Stay strong Kayla," I told myself.

Next I pulled out a necklace. On the chain was a locket shaped like a heart. I pressed the tiny button on the side, hearing the small 'click' noise, and watched as a picture of my mother and father appeared inside. Another tear escaped my eye.

~Flashback~

"Here's your present Kayla," my father called over. I looked over to where he was pointing and saw a present with my name on it. It was perched on top of another present at the base of the Christmas tree.

I ran over to the tree and pulled out my present. I ran my fingers over the holly decorated paper and unwrapped it. I tossed the wrapping paper behind me and took the lid off of the box. It looked identical to the one I received for my birthday.

Inside the box there was a small necklace. It was a heart shaped locket. I searched the small locket for a button, finding it on the side. I pushed the button and felt satisfied as I heard a 'click'. Inside the locket were 2 pictures, one of my mother and one of my father.

I wore a large smile on my face as my parents both said, "We love you sweetheart."

~Flashback over~

I slowly closed the locket and placed it around my neck. The small heart laid safely against my chest, close to my heart.
