Forgotten

Memories Forever - Chaper 5

Elles point view

We have been driving for about an hour and i keep thinking about what leyton said. He said he loves me, we have been dating for 7 years and we have never said that to each other, we're only 16, am i too young to know what love is? Am i in love with him? of course i am! so why didnt i say it back? I push what leyton said to the back of my mind, im too tired to think, I need sleep, i lie down and grab my central perk pillow that i brought in the car with me, i put on my clickbait jumper (beacuse im freezing )and throw my central perk blanket over me, i get comfy and feel myself drift off into a deep sleep.

"how long have have we been driving?" i ask my dad when i wake up, rubbing my eyes so they adjust.

"aww your awake, good we will be stopping in about 2 minutes at services so we can go to the toilet and get something to eat, and to answer you question we have been driving for about 2 and a half hours.

Great ive been asleep for about an hour and half, am guessing the Leyton thing didn't go to the back of my mind.

I lean against the window, staring out onto fields that rush past me. I grab my phone and select my favourite playlist and I shuffle it, happier by Ed Sheeran comes on first. I turn off my phone and rest my head on the window looking out, memory after memory pops into my head and I can't help laughing thinking at some.

27 April 2018- *the key for names will be at the bottom of the chapter*

L - babe, Elle please be carful down there, them stairs look like there about to cave in.

E - sweetie we've been to the abandoned house a million times and not once have I hurt myself.

L - Teodor can you watch her please so she doesn't fall.

T - okay but why don't you just come down it's not even that bad Down here.

L - no it's too dark.

E - we're coming back up now anyway you big baby. Hahahah

W - guys come look at what Houston's doing, oh my god be careful don't fall cause if you do it will be a trip to the hospital!

H - I won't fall but I'm coming down now anyway.

E - please be careful there's wood boards there with pins in them so don't stand...

H - OWWWWWWW!!!

E - or just stand on them!!! Oh god how do we get this out!

L - you idiot, Elle just told you there was pins there, listen next time you dweeb!

L - let me pull it out

H - oww owwww OWWWWW

L - it's out now, just make sure your not bleeding

H - ermmm no am not we're all good guys

All- IDIOT HAHAHAHA

I remember that day like it was yesterday that abandoned mansion was out favourite place to go, that's were me and Leyton had our first kiss, I remember that as clear as day,we was in this pool room and everyone was walking out and I turned to follow them, but Leyton grab me and pushed me up against the wall , best day of my life!

I also remember Houston having his first kiss with a girl he had a crush on once, I felt so bad cause he likes her and she didn't feel the same back, but we have an idea that he's gay and we just wish he would tell us we will love him no matter what, that's what family is for.

I grab my water out of my bag, as soon as I look at the label on the bottle I realise it's the same make as the school water, the water fights we have had with these water bottles with never get old.

My second song I was listening to ( Ross & Rachel version of happier) finished and the intro started to the third song, mr brightside by the killers. God this song brings back to many memories, when we was out and about in parks and stuff, it was always this song and sweet Caroline by Neil diamond we would sing at the top of our lungs each and every single one of us, we knew every word.

God do I miss those guys, their my family and I've left them, they know everything about me, they know what I'd been through and how much it had destroyed me, they was there when I was in the hospital, each one of them trying not to show me they was crying and scared that I wasn't going to come out the hospital alive. They have done so much for me they have been there even though Im a crazy flipping lunatic, Leyton always called me his crazy lunatic, and that's what I am. But now we will make this work because we are a family, a strong one, I can't wait for them to come down and see me, we are going to have so much fun together when they come and visit!

I wish we didn't have to move, but we can make more memories together down in Brighton...

They are and will always be my family, I love each and every single one of them!
