I'm back, lol. I know I said I had writers block like a few hours ago but I'm all good now, wrote some songs :)

I ran out of Aunt Kara's Cottage and down to the beach, crying. I sat on the rocks and watched the waves attempt to steal my thoughts.

"California?!?! How could they?!?!" I screamed mentally "STUPID STEP DAD!"

I rushed off the rocks and grabbed a pebble, hurling it to the waves that crashed. I ran back to my car, drove to the house and saw Abi crying in mum's arms, attempting to jump out of them, but failing. I wanted to grab her and run. So, in my stupid head, my brain pulled my hand towards the keys and yanked them out, then I stood up, outside the car. I ran to Abi and Mum.

"HALEY!" Abi shouted.

"Haley?" Mum repeated, confused.

"ABI!" I exclaimed, hugging her in Mum's arms.

I yanked Abi from mum's arms, sighing.

"She can be in my care, not yours!" I shouted.

My step dad came out and glared at me. I showed him my middle finger and laughed. Abi grabbed some things and hopped in my car. My mum ran to the window.

"You can't do this!" she wailed.

"Oh yeah" I sighed "Just watch me"

The car thrust forward and Abi and I were thrown back in our seats. We both screamed for air, for a second and as the car came to a more average speed, I smiled.

"Abs, you ok?" I asked.

She nodded, her blonde pigtails flinging back and forth and her green eyes blinking.

"We're going to Aunt Kara's ok? You know her, yeah?!"

Again, she nodded with this and pulled her bag out. It was covered in hearts and little key chains. My heart was almost broken that she wouldn't have a sane mother that would help her when she grew up. I mean, who would help her forget the mean girls at school when she was 13, or who would pat her back when she puked from getting drunk? My insane mother sure wouldn't when she was with my stupid step dad.

We arrived at Aunt Kara's cottage and pulled up. Abi's eyes werewonder struckby the magical like place that she'd read about in her books. Shesquealed with excitement and laughed. Aunt Kara wondered out to us with amazement dancing in her eyes.

"ABI!" She yelled, running towards us.

Abi, baffled about who was calling her name, spun and saw Aunt Kara.

"AUNTIE KARARA!" She yelped running to Aunt Kara.

As my aunt and sister hugged each other, my phone let out a beep. I peered at it to see TJ's name on it.

It read;

im sorry for you know today. I'm in hospital...um, yeah...I panicked and here I am, a broken arm and broken rib. anyway, somethings been on my mind lately. can you come by the hospital soon? xxxxx TJ

I stared, blankly at the text for a moment and but Aunt Kara's voice shouting my name brought me back to reality.

"I have to go somewhere!" I yelled at her, running out the door.

My car started as soon as the keys were shoved into ignititon. I reved the engine, once, before pulling out of the driveway and launching towards the hospital.

Once at the hospital, all my nerves pulled me out of the car, teriffied of what the hell was going to happen and why I'd even come. Oh Yeah, that's right, TJ is my best friend..kinda.

"Um, TJ Stephens...Is he here?" I questioned the lady dressed in white behind the desk.

She looked up from her glasses. An evil glare was my only sympothy from her.

"Who?" 

"Um, Tom-Jack Stephens"

"Relation?" She replied, smirking.

I knew how this went. You had to be related to see someone ill, so, in all instincts of a human, I lied.

"Fiancé" I gulped.

She eyed me for a second longer, before descending off for a file and then escaping her desk and walking me to TJ's room. Once she swung the door open, I felt like a gasp was going to take away all of the air inside my lungs.

He was bruised, cut, in pain, and wincing as the nurses moved him around. Once they saw Blondie and I standing in the door, they pulled away and dispersed. I walzted over to TJ, sucking in a breath. He smiled in pain, but none the less, he smiled. I laughed, through the tears with this guy, so why couldn't I say one word when he needed me most?

"Hey" He murmured.

"I'm sorry" I blurted out. "About everything. All of it. The shit I've done, the pain I've caused you. You have no idea.."

I sat down as he looked at me.

"That guy, I couldn't care less about him..He's just some douche..You're my best friend and I-"

"Haley"

"No. No, I'm all wrong. Mentally fucked up-"

"Haley.."

"My mom is just the reason, though. She's moved to-"

His lips were so close to mine. I wanted to kiss him. But he had a girlfriend...Damn her.

Why? Why did  I want to feel his lips just once more, dammit. Why am I so fussy, and needy? Why am I nothing near perfect? Why am I un normal and stupid and wreckless? 

"I gotta go, TJ" I nodded, before hopping up and escaping.

TJ's P.O.V

Why Haley? Why leave me? I need you. I miss you. I want you to stay, dammit. I love you for damn heck's sake! Why don't you get it?

"Haley!" I called.

She poked her head in, smiling, slightly. "Yeah?"

"I..i'll see you in school tomorrow"

"See ya then!"

She rushed off. 

Dammit.
