Chapter 9

 **Maddie POV**

 I shove another scoop of mint ice cream in my mouth. Tears stream down my face as I watch Jack freeze to death.

 "I'll... Never... Let go!" Rose yells.

 "But you do!" I yell.

 Ok. I'm usually not like this. But the reason is today is the anniversary of... My boyfriend, Jason’s death.

 Jason died 3 years ago when I was 16. He was hit by an 8 wheeler and fell off a bridge. A person like him doesn't deserve a death like that! His daddy is the pastor back in the Hampton’s and his momma a vet.

 He was my whole world. I know how cheesy it sounds but I don't care. He was perfect. He had tan skin and wavy blonde hair and emerald green eyes. We met when we were 12 and were best friends for 2 years. Then we both felt something more so he asked me to be his girlfriend at 14.

 He stayed with me through everything. Even when dad started getting drunk and beat me. And my mother watched. I will never forgive her for that. Watching her own daughter being  beaten to death.

 That's why when Mel asked me to move with her to Denver Colorado with her when we graduated I didn't hesitate.

 My dream is and always will be to design cloths. But I can't afford schooling. I've been saving up and entered project runway.

 Mel knows better than to call me on this day. She knows I need to be alone and be in my pool of grief. So that's what I do; watch movies all day that remind me of him.

 The doorbell rings making me go out of my thoughts. I don't move at all. I just stare as Jack's lifeless body floats away forever in the sea. The doorbell keeps ringing for 10 minutes.

 I get up angrily and throw the door open. "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT? DON'T YOU SEE IM TRYING TO CRY IN PEACE?" I yell at the person.

 I look up and see Niall

 Crap.

 "Maddie why are you crying?" he asks worried.

 I stare at him blankly. "Nothing matters any more Niall. Nothing matters. He's not here. There's no point in living!" I yell bursting into tears.

 Niall pulls me into a famous Horan hug. "No, princess,  don’t say that! You deserve to live! Everyone does!"

 "Then why didn't he live?" I ask my voice cranking.

 He looks confused but he just hugs me and soothes me. We stand there, for who knows for how long, we his arms around me and me crying into his chest.

 Eventually I calm down and Niall carries me bridle style to my couch. I tell him everything. To Jason, to my parents, to my dreams. He listens and he tells me about him too.
