16 - In This Shirt

I believe that at some point every wrong you did comes back and hits you right in the face when you least except it.

At least that's how it was at this very moment for me.

She was gone, just the way I was gone once.

The different is I somewhat know we're she has gone and the only thing left to do now is go and search for her. I just didn't know if I could leave again, my kids know me and are waiting for me to be there for them from now on.

If i leave now I don't know when I'd come back and I wouldn't want them to have to live without their father again.

To Carter:

Hey can we meet up at the old hangout please?

5 minutes passed and she replied

From Carter:

Sure on my way in 10 see you soon!

I got up folding the letter and putting it on my pocket as I walked to the door to my car. Driving right now with a clouded mind reminds me of the moments i left, it was all painful and heartbreaking.

I reached the little garden memories flashing from the other night with Peyton, I missed her so much right now.

I sat on the ground taking out the note again re reading everything knowing it would keep breaking my heart.

I felt another presence near me I look up to see Carter walking to me. She sat next to me and stared at me.

"What's wrong bry?"

I looked down at the note then at her while I held the paper in-front of her so she could take it and she did.

I watched her read it and see how much her expression changed with each word she read.

She sighed and then looked back at me "I'm so sorry"

She wrapped her arms around me and i let out a sob outa nowhere, I cried in her arms "she was always scared Carter, he messed her up and I should of seen this coming"

She let go and looked at me "we can never really see things coming sometimes bry, they just happen and we can either fight for them or let them be the way they want them to be"

"He's gonna hurt her, I promised I'd never let him hurt her ever again" I looked down then back up at her " but I have my babies here, and I can't leave them now"

"What if we just go with you?"

I look at her "you'd do that?"

"We haven't taken a road trip in awhile so why not" she says "anything for my best friends happiness" she says and looks away.

I stand up then holding my hand out for her to stand up as well. When she does I hug her and spin her around "Thank you so much" I cry.
