The Jock and The Princess

#GiveYourHeartABreak

I was speechless to say the least. I had a million words going through my head and yet nothing came out. "Princesa this is your mother Rebecca" My dad gestured towards her. " How dare you come here." I spat "That's no way to talk to your mother" My dad told me and I shook my head. " She isn't my mother, she lost that title ever since she left through that door 17 years ago" I said and walked out the door.

I sped off into the city and drove past each car that was in front of me. I felt lost and alone in the world. She's selfish, manipulative, and she only wants to survive. She doesn't love me nor can she love anyone. I remember a faint memory of her with packed bags and her yelling at my dad, that was the day I never saw her again. I pulled up to my safe haven, The Shake. This was the place where I felt as care free as I can.  I made this my place ever since me and Nathan met. This was our place, well it was our place.

I smiled as my favorite waiter was there. " Hey Princesa how are you tonight" Skip asked me and I gave a sad smile. " Could be better, but thanks Skip" I said and he just nodded. I ordered my usual and just stared out the window. Call me those sad girls in a music video, but that's what it seems to be. " Could I sit with you beautiful" I turned to see Rafael I nodded. " Now mi Princesa, what happened to you, you look like a wreck" He said and I just shook my head. " My mother came back and she expects to be fine with everything that happened before." He nodded and brought me closer to his side. " Come here" Rafael said to me as I began to sob. " I don't know why everything is so hard." I cried into his shirt. " shhhh it's okay I understand" He held me and ran his fingers through my hair. " I got you mi Princesa" He whispered and we stayed in each others arms.

" thank you for being there for me" I said to him and he smiled. " What kind of boyfriend would I be if I wouldn't be there for my girlfriend" He said and kissed my forehead. No matter how shitty I feel he's always there.

Eventually, we both headed home and I pulled up to my drive way. I opened the front door and headed inside. I walked upstairs to check on Alice to see if she's okay. I grabbed a warm towel and a warm pack. I took a seat and placed down the items near her bedside. I started to wipe her down and placed the warm pack under her. " You know I always thought you were my evil step mother, but in the end you ended up to being my fairy godmother." I laughed bitterly, I have these conversations with her to update her about my life. " Me and Nathan I guess we aren't friends anymore and that sucks, it really does suck Alice. I thought about starting football again, maybe trying out for the boys team." I laughed. Looking back at how she treated me she was just giving me a lesson. Telling me how to act properly and looking over me.

I started to tear up. " God damn it why do I always cry" I said to myself and wiped my tears with my sleeve. " Because you're a cry baby and I think you can kick any boys ass" I heard. I laughed and looked up " How much did you hear?" I asked and she smiled. " Everything Princesa" She laughed and I grabbed her hand as I laughed along with her.
