No Happy Endings [ON HOLD]

No Happy Endings

I could feel the stinging of my face as I slowly regained consciousness. I could barely see through my swollen eyes.I reached up softly touching my face wincing at the pain. As I tried to get off the floor, I felt my arms and legs struggling not to give out beneath me.Realizing that there was no way I could stand much less walk, I crawled feeling around trying to find my phone. I felt a rectangular object, guessing it was my phone I slowly began feeling for the buttons trying to dial a number hoping i get the it right since all I could see was the brightness of the light trying to get through my eyelids . I listened to the phone ring praying that he answered since I had no one else. "Hello?" I could hear his deep voice. "Chris! I need you please come get me and Hurry I dont know If he'll be back or when!" I begged hoarsely. I heard a beep and looked as the screen on my phone went black. How did my life ever get so screwed up, How did i end up here like this?

It was never supposed to be like this. I was supposed to grow up to be a doctor. I was supposed to meet a nice guy, get married, and have 4 kids. Life was supposed to be fairy tale, but I learned the hard way that there is no happy endings. I guess this all started about a year ago. Thats the day i met him.

*flashback*

"Come on mom! Please just let me borrow 50 dollars please I'll pay you back." I begged her on my knees holding on to her legs. She pushed me away, anger in her eyes. "How dare you come to my house and ask me for money! I WILL NOT PAY FOR YOUR NASTY ADDICTIONS! LOOK AT YOU! YOURE ALL STRUNG OUT TRYING TO FIND ANYWAY TO GET YOUR NEXT FIX!" She lowered her voice and I could hear the iceyness that always scared me as a child." Why don't you ask how your daughter is instead. What am I supposed to tell her everytime she asks me why her mommy doesnt come see her? Why her mommy doesnt love her or want her? All you think of is yourself! Your 20 years old with a 4 year old daughter! Get help, grow up ,and take care of YOUR responsibilities!Now leave and do not ever step on my property again until your are clean or I WILL call the cops!" And with that she slammed the door in my face. How could my mother turn her daughter away like that ? I need to get money somehow, i need more. I didnt want to come down from my high. It was always hard coming down . Especially because once I came down, reality hit and it wasnt pretty. I didnt want to think about how i had a baby at 16 and lost everything! Or how my family turned me away! I dont hate my baby girl, I just cant be a mother right now. Shes better off with my mom, someone who could support her and give her the life that i could never give her. I love my baby! Im not being selfish, Im doing whats best for her! Why couldnt anyone see that?

I walked mindlessly to the club that my best friend Chris's dad owned. I knew that i would be let in the door since I've known Chris and his family since i was 8 years old. As soon as i got in I scanned the club for somebody who would give me a hit. Instead I saw Chris sitting at a table. I made my way to the table I couldnt help but to check Chris out. He was really hot, your typical all American boy. Medium long hair, gorgeous blue eyes that I could get lost in, a smile that could brighten up the world. He was wearing a black button down shirt and blue jeans . I'll admit ive always had a crush on Chris, but after i went "spiraling down the path to destruction" Im sure he sees me more as his charity case friend than a potential girlfriend. He has tried to help me get back on track but eventually i lose control. I got to the table and scoot into the booth and gave Chris a hug. I noticed someone was at the table with him and wow was all i had to say . This guy was so hot. Short brown hair, brown eye, tall, kissable lips. Blue button up shirt with blue jeans. "Hello?? Emery did you hear me??" I snapped out of my little fantasy.."huh? What you say Chris?" I tore my eyes from the hot guy to look at Chris smirking." I said meet Tyler. He's our new employee. Im just filling him in on the basics." Tyler smiled at me and reached out his hand to shake mine eye."Its nice to meet you". Neither of us broke eye contact , we just looked into eachothers eyes. "ahem, i guess we're done here. You start tomorrow Ty. Dont be late." Tyler released my hand to shake Chris hand."Thanks, Ill see you tomorrow." He told Chris and left. " Close you mouth, your drooling" Chris said looking a bit annoyed, He was so over protective sometimes. "whatever Chris he wasnt that hot anyways. Ima go dance, get back to work "I told him as I stuck my tongue out at him. I needed to find someone for the high. I walked to the bar to order a shot, if i wasnt going to get my high, then i might as well get drunk. "Give me something strong Nick" I told the bartender. "You know what i forgot to get your number" I turned to see Tyler smiling back at me. "And what makes you think that youre getting it?"I asked him smirking. "Well because what  if i need help or something?" I smiled " then ask chris" I told him grabbing my drink and walking away. I knew he was following me as i made my way to a table. " Oh is he your boyfriend or something?" He asked kind of disappointed. "No hes my best friend"    "oh well can i have your number?"   "well i guess. I mean how can i deny you help?" i told him sarcastically. He pulled out his phone and i punched in my number. "thanks i might need some help later on so ill text you. Bye pretty girl" I smiled as he left.
