The Broken ~ Grayson Dolan / Dolan twins

Chapter Fourteen

"I forgive a lot, but I never forget what's said and done..."
~~~

Jess's POV:

As soon as those words slipped out of my mouth Grayson jumped up and hurriedly ran to a different room and came back with some paper and pens.

"Let's go up to the roof, I always think clearer there." He gave out his hand for me to grab onto and we walked up to the higher floor.

It was an open roof which meant that he could stargaze whenever he wanted to or just stare at the clouds with meaningless thoughts running through his head.

He brought out a few blankets before we laid down.

"So what do you think of the sky?" He asked as I turned onto my side so that I could see his facial expressions.

"The sky is basically infinity, the stars float around it as if it orbited the pattern of the waves while the clouds just stand still as the world orbits arounds them." Grayson gave me a confused look as I continued on talking.

"What I meant was that when do we ever not see the sky, people hide it by staying indoors to get rid of the thought knowing that they would have to get up to relive another day while watching the sky change colour from light to dark. It's an orchestrated madness full of messed up parts." We both laid in silence for a few minutes as the words sunk into our brain.

"But what about the stars, don't they give you any meaning?" He silently whispered as we watched the sunset slowly.

"The stars are what construct the night. The bright flashing lights mixed in with the constellations just make it a unique piece of art that no one can replace." I took in a deep breath before turning to face him again and watched his face intently.

His eyes were glowing from the mellow colours of the sky with his hazel eyes becoming lighter in colour. He wasn't sad, he was smiling. It was like he was finally at peace.

But unfortunately that's not how life works.

Out of nowhere a lightning bolt appeared and the sky went black with rain pouring down on us heavily indicating that we should leave.

However, that didn't happen.

Grayson got up from his seat and bowed down in front of me with a smirk on his face.

"May I have this dance broken girl?" I giggled before getting up.

"You shall broken boy." We stared into each other's eyes before connecting our hands and danced to the pattern of the rain while occasionally bumping our feet.

"I never expected to see this side of you Grayson, why me? Why not anyone else, I'm broken yet you seem alright without me..." I looked down trying to avoid the conversation before Grayson pulled my chin up to face him.

"This is the first time I've been sort of at peace ever since my mums incident. I didn't choose to become happy in front of you, Jess you're the reason why I feel comfortable with myself. It's because of you..." Those last words kept on repeating in my head as I stared at him in silence wondering what I did to deserve someone like him.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong? Let's just go inside..." He looked nervous before trying to hurriedly leave but I turned him around so he could face me.

"I'm not mad at you Grayson, I'm just shocked that someone like you trusts me, your life is even more messed up than mine, I just can't get this out of my head. What did I do to deserve a friend like you." I looked him in the eyes and smiled before hugging him tightly not only surprising him but myself too.

"Let's go inside." We both walked inside with towels over our bodies as we watched a movie before falling off to sleep.

At around three in the morning I got a text message from my mum that there was an emergency and that I had to go back home.

I quickly picked up all of my things and left Grayson a note before leaving the forest and walking back home.

After thirty minutes I arrived back at home and entered my room to find my entire desk filled with sheets and my cupboards open with my clothes thrown out of the the draws. I looked across the room until I came across the notes on the desk.

They were the letters I would send to Grayson and most importantly my suicide note.

My mum slammed my door before entering the room startling me but I could see it in her face that that wasn't the main issue.

"A suicide note, are you out of your damn mind JESSLYN!" She screamed out my name in disgust and horror. I wouldn't blame her though, who would want to be stuck with me for life.

"It's not any of your business Tami, you're not my mum and you never will be. Why do you even care so much!?  You haven't even adopted me so you could get rid of me when I turn eighteen which is in less than a month!" She looked down at the ground before bringing a piece of paper from behind her back.

"I called you back so we could finally sign the adoption papers, you don't know how hard it was to adopt someone who's nearly at the age of eighteen. We love you as much as our own kids and your father and I have discussed something which will help you to get rid of these dumb thoughts in your head." I rolled my eyes and laughed sarcastically before grabbing the piece of paper and ripping it apart.

"You and my supposed 'father' don't deserve to dictate my life at all. As I said I'll be out of your hair when I'm eighteen so I don't want to do anything you've signed me up for." This time she smirked and glared at me.

"Well I guess it's a bit too late for that, on Saturday you are being sent to a help centre for your ill mannered thoughts and we will see you on your birthday which is the day you can leave." I stared at her in shock and in anger knowing that she really did hate me for all of these months.

"I HATE YOU!" She laughed.

"We all hated you sweetie, we just had to foster you because they didn't want you to kill yourself in the adoption centre. Now go get some rest and be a good little girl." She turned off the lights before slamming the door again leaving me alone in the dark.

Right then at that moment I broke down.

And there was nothing I could do about this...
