"Your right" Clem sighed. "I don't deserve to " Carley's face softened she didn't expect the girl to react that way clem was the tough type who never let her self be vulnerable but under that laid a broken girl who blamed herself for everything that came to her.

"Clem...I didn't." She stuttered "I just say thing when I'm angry.." she placed her hands on Clementines shoulders. "Just tell me one thing...where the fuck is lee."
Clem gulped in fear :I should have 911 on speed dial😰

The older woman stormed past Clem into and into the living room where a now sobered lee sat signing one in a large stack of papers. When his wife entered the room he saw the hurt and anger in her eyes.

"Carley!" He gasped "what are you doing here?- " he was cut off as she again delivered a special delivery from her palm to his face. Instead of being surprised he simply shook his head and grabbed a Form. Handing it to her. "It's actually good that your here, see I've been thinking..." Lee hesitated before clearing his throat. "I want a divorce"

Those words broke Carley but she would never shed a tear in front of him.She tired her best to be relieved and she put on a fake smile tucking a lock of her brown hair behind her ear the dreadful divorce papers clutched in her sweaty palm. "..this makes things easier then" she nervously chuckled "I'll see you in 3 days I just need 3 days to think" as the petite woman stopped speaking the calmly walked out the room

"Lee.." Clem sighed "I think she still loves you I mean you guys have been married for 9 years now, your saying that didn't mean anything to you?" The teenager explained walking over and sitting on the couch next to Lee. "Of course I love her bu- " he cut himself off. "But what?"
"I have a bigger priority now..You"
He looked into the girls amber eyes with streams of tears rolling down his face. She looked back into his a small sympathetic smile on her face. "Thank you" she whispered as she laid her head on his shoulder "For what?"
"Everything"

The door bell rang once again

"I'll get it" Clementine sighed getting up open the door. "What are you doing here?" She snarled crossing her arms and leaning against the door frame. It was Louis. "...I'm sorry Clem" he stuttered clutching onto her hands

"I realised It seemed like I took you for granted and I regret even letting all the things I said come out my mouth. Because I love you"
Clementine face soften she hadn't seen him for a week now and you could say she was longing for him: to hold her, kiss her, to tell her he loved again until her heart melted...

"Louis I love you to-" she was interrupted by him placed his finger on her lips forcing her to keep her silence. "Close your eyes" he whispered with a smile. Clementine shrugged and did as she was told. After a few second Louis finally said : You can open them now. She open her golden eyes to reveal the dread head on one knee with a ring held up to her. "Louis! We can't get married we are still in school!" She gasped

He smirked "it's a promise ring...Clem I promise my self to you" she stepped of the porch and into his arms he held her with love he had missed her so much the way she laughed to that same baseball cap that was always on her head.

He pulled away from their embrace and grabbed clem left hand slipping the orange Sphalerite ring on it. The girl marvelled at its beauty even edging her fingers over each tiny diamond in the band it was perfect.

"How much was this?" She asked worriedly she knew Louis family was well off but this gold was 14 caret it must of been expensive

"How much was this?" She asked worriedly she knew Louis family was well off but this gold was 14 caret it must of been expensive.
"It doesn't matter"he chuckled "the only thing that matters is that I love and you love me"

"You still quote Barney how old are you six?" She joked
"Seven actually" he huffed. They stood there looking into each others eyes wondering what should do next. Clem rolled her eyes, stood on he tippy toes (short people problems) and gave Louis the kiss he had been longing for.

The dread head felt like he was flying when his was with her but when they kissed he had just been transported to heaven she was the one the one who could erase any bad feeling the one who could solve anything he wanted to be with her forever and one day instead  of a promise ring he wanted to put an beautiful diamond ring on this his Clementines finger. And this time he could mess this up.

She pulled away in amazement. "Oh yeah and I broke my phone" she shrugged
"I'll get you new one!"
"No"
"Yes"
"No Louis I'll just ask Lee"
"I getting you a new phone clemster"
"Don't call me that!" She said punching him playfully. "But Clem what happened? why were u gone for a whole week!"
"My parents...well parent died"
She explained "and basically,Lee is my biological father so it took a week to figure our where I was gonna stay and who with so I'll be at school tomorrow"
"I'm so sorry babe"
"I'm babe now!?" she laughed " but it's ok things happen"

Time skip to the next day at school 🏫

You can do this she told her self. The week she had been absent from school had been a repetitive cycle of crying and blaming her self her it had got so bad she was prescribed to be on antidepressants for her PTSD but she was fine. Totally fine she told her self again what even was herself the same girl who got her parents killed?

She stepped through the gates heading towards the main glass doors as she got closer she heard her name yelled from behind her.
"CLEM!!!" Brody scream in happiness jumping into clems arms let's just say Clem is really strong and can lift certain people🤗

"I-I can't breathe" Clementine wheezed as the red head held her tighter. Brody eventually got off her so now they where five of them in a circle : Louis,Clementine,Marlon,Brody and Violet.

"So...how was your time with out me?" Clem joked but she noticed that everyone looked at Louis awkwardly. "That's I conversation you and Louis should have alone" Violet states breaking the awkward silence. "Agreed,we all have our own relationships to tend to" Marlon yawed followed by Brody punching him in the shoulder.

"Speaking of relationships Vi? Where's Minnie?"
"Oh..she's with Sophie she had to help her sister with some relationship 'issues' with Mitch"
"I can't believe he did that her though!" Louis muttered
"Wait did what?" Violet asked intrigued "You know! She won't even tell Minerva!?!"

"It's not my place..."Louis gulped as Violet expression went from bitter to enraged what did he just get himself into.

I'm so sorry it's been 3 weeks and I been so stuck idk writers block everywhere 😫

This story is getting more and more random but do you think Louis should tell Vi what happened to Sophie and lose her as a friend or dont and leave them to forgive it out????🤔
