You're Not Alone // r.s.l

1~Wait Up

Addisyn’s P.O.V

I just kept running.  I wasn’t sure where yet, but I was running.  I couldn’t see anything around me.  Maybe it was the white lights that were blinding me or that my eyes were filled with tears. 

Of course, with me being a klutz, I tripped over my own feet and face planted.  I tried to get up, but I just couldn’t find the strength, so I just laid there, quietly sobbing.  The thing was I had no idea why I was crying, I just was.  I didn’t even know where I was.  It was all so unreal, yet it felt like it was actually happening.  I didn’t know what to make of it.  I was getting frustrated and I was so confused, I couldn’t take it.  I slammed my fist on the ground and screamed “Fuck!” through my tears.  They wouldn’t stop and I don’t know why.

“Addisyn…” I heard a soft voice say.  My tears suddenly stopped as I recognized the voice.  I lifted my head and there was a hand in my face looking for my grasp.  I looked at the owner of the hand.  Her thin brown hair was down just like she always hated it and her normally brown eyes were black with sadness.  I stared at her in disbelief. 

“Mom?” I finally managed to get out.  I took her hand as she helped me up on my feet.  I was still holding her hand when I noticed a tear roll down her tanned cheek. 

“Addisyn why did you leave me?” she asked. 

I started to feel my own tears fill my eyes once more as she spoke.  “Mom I didn’t leave you!  I would never!” I shouted fighting the tears.  Her eyes seemed to be looking at nothing, but I knew she was talking to me. 

“Why Addisyn?” she asked again backing away.  I held her hand firmly, not wanting to let go of her again. 

“Mom don’t leave me!  I need you!” I screamed while the tears finally fell.  Her hand then slipped from my grasp as she continued to back away. 

“I love you…” were her last words before she disappeared.  I fell to my knees and just stayed there crying, all alone.

I shot up out of bed with a scream and a thud when I landed on the hardwood floor.  I looked at the clock: 2:44 A.M. 

“Great,” I muttered as I hoisted myself up.  It was pretty difficult since I hadn’t eaten in a couple days.  Like I would snack and stuff but that was it.  Don’t get the wrong idea though; I wasn’t starving myself or anything.  I just haven’t been hungry is all.  I stumbled over to my closet and grabbed my sweatshirt.  I knew I wouldn’t be able to sleep so I decided to go for a walk.  I had to get that dream out of my head.

I knew exactly where I was going when I walked out the door.  My dad’s a pretty heavy sleeper so I snuck out with ease.  I was way too tired to run so I took the ten minute walk.

I arrived at the pond and climbed the big oak tree.  I sat on my usual limb and leaned against the trunk, burying my face in my hands and silently sobbing.  I was reflecting on my life.  A lot has happened in the last few years.  My mom was murdered, I moved across the country with my dad in case the murderer was looking for us too, I left the only city I’ve ever lived in along with my friends and more importantly my best friend and I’m actually depressed.  But there’s no way in hell I was going to let that show.  As far as everyone knew I was this happy go-lucky girl that was always smiling.  I just wish people could see how I really was. 

My sobs started to get louder so I buried my head into my knees to try to muffle my dying whale noises.

“Um excuse me?” a voice said and I froze.
