So it began✔️

Protologue:

"You're coming back home, it's not up for discussion. " My dad says with no expression on his face as we stood outside the hospital door in front of the doctor that had just told me of my mother's passing. What my father failed to notice or care about is that that place would never be my home not anymore.

"I don't want to go back there. This is my home Tommy, Ava, and Jason are my home," I screamed back and his face turned hard. Tommy was my baby stepbrother and Jason was my stepdad lets just say my father isn't too fond of either of them.

"Your 17 fucking years old. I am your father, your mother is dead. What I say fucking goes, got it." He said in a stern voice leaving no room for arguing.

"Fuck you!" I spit back at him. "I fucking despise you."

"Yeah well, I told your mother to get an abortion. Go to Jason's house and pack your bags and be on the first flight back home no later than Thursday." He says before walking out of the hospital. As soon as he was out of site Jason put his hands on my shoulder.

"Maybe it won't be as bad as you think, besides we will visit you as much as possible." He said with a determined look in his eyes and I nodded. I couldn't go back there, there were too many memories, memories I wanted, no needed to forget.

"Amber there is something I want to tell you," I said nervously chipping off my nail polish trying to get up the nerves to tell my best friend my secret.

"What's going on Carson?" She asked in a chipper mood.

"I.. I think, um no I know I like Blake." I finally said and her smile instantly dropped.

"Blake Bradly?" She asked and I shook my head. "Because I know you're not telling me you have a crush on Blake Smith, my brother!" She said dangerously low. I took a simple step back.

"Amber, I.. I just- he's so nice and kind. He's always there for me and.." She cut me off.

"No I don't think you understand you need to stay the hell away from my brother." she spits and I stared at her in shock no way this was my best friend talking to me like this.

"Amber?"

"Get the fuck out of my house better yet move in with your mother because if you ever come back here everyone and I mean everyone will know what happened last year." She said and I flinched. We were 14 years old and we had been friends for 7 years and here I was being blackmailed by my best friend for crushing on her brother. I dashed out of the house with tears in my eyes but not before bumping into the one and only Blake smith.

"Car, are you alright?" He asks looking me in the eyes. I blinked back the tears

"I'm fine, Bye Blake I'll miss you," I said softly and he looked at me confused

"Are you going somewhere?" He asked with a worried expression and I just sent him a sad smile.

"I'm going to move to New York with my mom," I said, Blake and I didn't talk much but we were still pretty close. If that makes any sense, I mean of course we weren't too close. He was a senior in high school and I was a 9th grader but...

"Oh, um did you tell Amber?" He was clearly still confused.

"Were not really friends anymore, Blake bye?" I said dashing out of his arms and into my house past my dad and into my room to call my mom 3 days later I was on the first flight to New York not saying goodbye to anyone. My father didn't care he had his girlfriend and second daughter to keep him entertained.
