________

(Reagan's POV)

"Reagan get up! It's time for school!" Mom yelled.

I rolled over and grabbed my phone without opening my eyes.

"6:30" jeez it's early.

I grunted and sat up. I rubbed my eyes and slowly walked to the bathroom.

"Awww. There's my pretty girl." Charles laughed.

"Don't push it." I replied.

I brushed my teeth, brushed my blond hair, and put it in a French braid.

I picked out a grey American Eagle shirt and jean shorts. I slipped on my chucks and went to the kitchen to eat breakfast. I grabbed an apple and kissed my mom and dad. I grabbed my bag and left for the bus.

Today was Thursday. Only one more day till my 13 birthday. I'm so excited.

I got on the bus and sat next to my best friend , Ansley. We have been friends since kindergarten.

"Hey Reagan!" Ansley smiled.

"Hey!" I replied.

"How are your parents?"

I paused. They have really been on edge lately. Sometimes I fall asleep sobbing because they yell so much at each other. Ever since Chaz died, things have changed so much.

"Bad." I stuttered.

"Are you ok?"

"No. I'm not ok," I said, tears threatening to spill," I cry myself to sleep at night because they yell so much. Things just keep getting worse. I don't know what to do."

Ansley leaned over and hugged me.

"I'm so sorry Reagan."

"It's ok. You don't need to apologize." I hugged her back.

We got off the bus and we started another day in hell.

(Alli's POV)

I walked to the door to pick up the package that had just arrived. I ordered Reagan and iPad air for her birthday.

Charles and I had not been getting along well at all lately.

He was editing the vlog but I needed to talk to him.

I tapped his shoulder.

"Charles can I talk to you please?"

"Yeah what's up?"

"Ok. I know we haven't been getting along and we've been fighting a lot more."

"Yes I know."

"But Rea's birthday is tomorrow. So can we try to get along as best as we can tomorrow? Please?"

"Yes. Of course."

He opened his arms for a hug. I was hesitant but I gladly accepted.

I embraced my husband for the first time in a long time. It felt so good. We had been fighting so much and I forgot the real values in life. I forgot about our love. I started to cry into his chest.

"I'm so sorry Charles. For everything."

"It's ok baby. I love you so much. Don't you ever forget that."

"I love you too baby." I was sobbing.

I kissed him for a long time. We hadn't kissed in forever.
