Secrets Can Be Fun

(2) Later that night

Please comment and vote, it will make my day! Love you!  

Aves drifted off to sleep in my arms at around 10pm. (This was way past her bedtime but there was no mum and dad was in his room. He completely forgot about us but I understand. He did just find out that the woman he was in love with was cheating on him with one of his school mates. I can't imagine how hard this is for him.) I turned off the TV, changed into my pyjamas and got straight back in bed. As I was trying to fall asleep, i tried so hard to fight back all this negativity because if I couldn't then I would be reminded of Jack. I failed and a sob slipped out. Jack was my boyfriend. We had been dating for a year and well... rumors appeared about how he didn't actually like me but I was blinded by all the love that I was giving him. For his own entertainment he said they were true. He said that "we" were never a thing. He said...he said that he never loved me, that nobody will ever love or care about me. I was left heartbroken, lovesick and hurt. I had put all my love and faith into one person and that was my mistake. A tear left my eye, I just couldn't help it. 

When I was ever upset, he would put his arm around me and tell me that everything was going to be ok. He would wipe my tears while gazing into my eyes and then plant a kiss on my forehead. But now, I was haunted by the last words he said to me, they echoed in my head and this made me sniffle as more tears flooded out of my eyes. I felt Ava move beside me. Then she got up, and said "Don't cry Chlo- I know something's happened between mummy and daddy. But don't worry because whatever it is, we'll face it together." She then looped her arm around mine and went straight back to sleep. Ava was right. I'm not alone. I shouldn't let this effect me like this, I can get through this. And with that, I fell asleep with a more positive set of mind.
