Fatal Lies [#wattys2018]

Ch.27||After the rain

6 months later..

I stood at the cliff facing the ocean and let the rain beat down on my face.
The roses I held in my hands where wet from the rain.
I remembered the last time we where here, she didn't want to skip school,even made me cross my heart. No one made me feel the way that she did.
She was an angel, just like her name, I missed her everyday since she left. Its been six months now, and I still don't know what to do with my life. Usually I would hang out with the boys and that meant their girlfriends too, but today I didn't want to be reminded of her, yet here I was .Standing at the exact spot we nearly kissed, when she told me she would jump off the cliff if I was falling.
I came here before I went to her because, this was the last time I would come here and the last time I would visit her.
I got back in the car,shaking the rain from the roses.

It took me some minutes to arrive there. I walked up to her and placed the roses on the fancy curvings that read;
Here lies the body of Angelica Rose Crestwood Nixon,
Gone too soon, a friend, sister,daughter.
Born 15th September 1996
Left to be with the Angels
4th June 2004.
I sat down beside her grave and plucked a few weed from beside it.
"I miss you, you know.I know you're probably liking it up there but I wish you were here with me.
Is it selfish of me to wish you hadn't left?
The boys are doing fine, I know you would ask about them,Charlotte and Brandon got back together, Alexys and Nick are on good terms but just don't want to give it another go"
I laughed remembering how happy Charlotte was when she and Brandon got back.
"Jenelle is doing fine, you know.. she cleaned out a room to put your stuff there and your dad only leaves the house one a month.. Your mom,I guess she already told you She's leaving town.
I bought this cause I thought you might like it,considering your middle name is Rose.
I'm leaving town after this, I can't bear the pain anymore, but I'll be back I promise".
After that I stood up and walked back to the car.
This was going to be hard but I was determined to to it.
Once last look at her grave and off I sped towards the city, leaving Fairhaven behind. Forever.
