The Journey Chapter 5

..Journey's POV..

Last night's events played in my head repeatedly.

"I love you, Journey, but my brother's right."

"Hayes please," I looked at him with wide eyes.

"I love you, Journey," he got up and left me on the bench.

Stunned.

And wanting to cry but nothing comes out.

I hunched over the sink, looking down at the counter.

I looked up to see this unknown figure.

She had knotty blonde hair.

The bluest but red eyes.

She was short.

Had a larger ass...everyone made fun of this figure.

Said she wore butt pads to get all the guys.

She was on the skinnier side.

That wasn't a problem.

Then I remember who this broken hearted fifteen year old was.

Her name was Journey.

Journey.

Hope.

Reid.

I slid down the door.

Pulled my knees to my chest.

I put my head in my knees.

And sobbed.

Uncontrollably.

Not caring who heard.

I heard sniffles, coming for outside the door.

Not mine.

The only one who shares the room with me.

Espinosa.

I was too embarrassed for him to see me like this.

I have to stay strong for him.

I hear pacing, faint cries and low whispers.

"I'm useless...,"

"Everyone's right. Just kill myself," his voice cracks once he said those words.

Just like I though.

He's giving up.

Just like me.

"I knew she didn't like me. I'm a freak. I love her so much. I can't control my feelings. Fuck...," I stopped breathing.

I looked down to see what covered my body.

Sweats and a sports bra.

Should I show him?

Or should I keep it a secret?

Show him.

I trust him.

I love Espinosa.

I can trust him.

I open the door slightly.

Seeing him laying on the bed snuggled in with the covers.

His pillow still wet with small puddles.

I kneel down and softly kiss his forehead.

"Hey? Can I show you something?" I say bitting my lip.
