If It Never Happened ⚣

Chapter 16- January 15th 2017

Kyle P.O.V

When I woke up, I didn't expect to have my cheeks stained with old tears that I had shed before falling asleep. I didn't open my eyes right away, wanting to pretend that what happened the previous day hadn't actually happened, but I knew it had. I was glad that tears were no longer falling out of my eyes.

I could feel Karin rubbing my hair off of my forehead in a comforting manner and it was really helping. I honestly was glad that Karin was here, I would be a mess without her here, her and Nika.

Karin knew what was going on in True's life. She knew him better than a lot of people, she knew that he was hurting, that he was breaking, that he wasn't okay. I knew that too, but I don't think I knew to the full extent what was going on in his life, and I honestly don't.

Both me and Karin knew how strong True really was. I knew he was strong, but even the strongest fall and True fell hard.

And broke harder.

Karin knew that if True continued to get hurt like he has been over and over again with no stop that he was going to break, and he broke.

No one could take what True had, that made him even stronger, considering his age and how long he took all the pain and suffering, those things, those things made him stronger than all of us but because of all he's took, it's made him really fragile, made it even easier to make him break, the smallest things seemed to mess with him but that was to be expected.

I didn't need to be thinking about this, so I tried to take my mind off of True, though I really didn't want too, I didn't want to burst into tears again.

When I did manage to get my mind off of True they instantly jumped to Luke. I tighten my fists as anger coursed through my body at the single thought of my boyfriend.

Luke had known ahead of time that my best friend had attempted to kill himself, but he didn't tell me! He let me find out with the people who hated me! With the people who hated us, Claire, True, and Me. They wanted us all dead, they wouldn't care if we died, in fact, they've been begging for it for years!

They wished us dead multiple times! They don't care if we live or die, because they are all assholes and bullies.

It was moments like this I was glad I had left my phone at Luke's house because he could have tracked my phone. At first, I didn't even know my phone had a tracker on it, and it wasn't even me who found out the phone had a tracker on it. It was True who found the tracker. I wouldn't have noticed without True telling me it was even there and True currently checks my phone once a week, saying he wants to protect me, I'm older, I should be protecting him and I failed at that.

I don't want to even talk to Luke right now, he's such a prick! You don't NOT tell your boyfriend his best friend attempted suicide! I would have preferred it to come from Luke that the school officials. But obviously Luke didn't care enough to tell me about my best friends attempt in death. He pissed me off, and I'd avoid me if I were him. But I don't think he's smart enough to do that.

Thank god he doesn't know where Karin lives, I never told him and any government system knows either because they don't even know were related. Karin even has a different last name. Draves is her. Mine's Emerson, so theirs no connection there and as far as the government knew I was still living with mom, but who knows if she's even alive anymore, it wouldn't hurt me if she wasn't. Karin wasn't even legally my guardian.

It was also for my families safety. If someone went looking for my family, though they'd probably only do that because I was dating the mafia prince, they still wouldn't be able to find my family, they were protected behind walls and walls of false information.
