Lewis pov:
I walked in with Rose on my arm and I felt complete, I felt like I had everything I wanted.
I had my first boxing tournament with my mum coming along as Noah decorated the house, my dad finally decided to leave us in peace and best of all I had the girl of my dreams. She was everything I could've asked for...
-Now-
I woke up feeling my chest drip with sweat along with my hands shaking at my sides and I felt sick to my stomach like I did every time I had these types of nightmares, the ones about Rose.
After all of it happened I'd went to counselling a few times at all sorts of places and eventually I just gave up with trying because I didn't want to live without her but then things finally got better, now I'm here.
I headed downstairs seeing my mum sat at the table with a ton of pictures spread infront of her and when I stood by her side she smiled holding up a photo with a date wrote on the bottom like all the others. I looked at me, Noah and my mum all sat by the Christmas tree our arms around eachother in matching pjs smiling like those happy families even if that was the day everything happened, the day that changed me.
"You better show this to violet when she comes down for Halloween" my mum giggled picking up another photo of our cousin sat on my lap in her little ballerina outfit along with Rose kissing my cheek with her red lips and I felt a slight tightness in my chest for a moment.
"You can show her yourself, she'll love it" I took it from her and knew that the words from my mouth were just there for me to keep hoping things would be ok even if they wouldn't be.
After looking at photos for hours I came across one from the night me and Rose watched the fireworks while she was kissing me like she always did in most pictures we took, she was so beautiful but I wish she was like that on the inside too.
"Noah told me you've made a new friend" I snapped out of my thoughts and realised she wasn't actually here, she was gone.
"Jamie, her names Jamie" I nodded with a smile on my face that made me disappointed in myself because I hadn't wanted to find someone else but Jamie was different, I hadn't looked at a girl the same way since so why now. Maybe moving wasn't a good idea after all.
Missy's pov:
"I promise I'm ok now" I pulled my hair forward to cover my neck flinching a tiny bit as I knocked it slightly with even the smallest touch Making me feel sick to my stomach and I may have been hurt loads but this time my dad had passed the limit by even touching my neck after the things I went through, he said he would never do that and he did.
"Why are you pretending like this isn't a big deal?" Noah looked at me with an angry tone but he didn't mean it and I could tell because his brown eyes were worried as he inspected me, watching my every move like I was gonna break if he even blinked. Why does he care so much anyways, it's not like we are friends or anything.
"We aren't friends, we aren't even classed as anything so please stop trying to save me and let me leave" he nodded after a minute staying in his seat as I stood up and I honestly couldn't of got out of that place faster, I don't like it when people are like that. I don't like when I get noticed because I have huge bruises on me or because there's burns on my arms, I don't wanna be a burden to everyone all the time and I certainly didn't want to be "saved" by Noah.
I walked down the path watching my feet as I kicked stones and fiddled with my bracelet trying my best not to let the tears fall but I couldn't help it, I couldn't help but want to scream so loud that everything would eventually disappear. Why did it have to be my mum? Why couldn't he have left instead, maybe if that happened then me and Gorgia would have a normal life with a normal parent that doesn't hate us; hate me.
"Missy!" I turned around to see Jamie stood there panting trying to catch her breath with both her hands on her knees and first of all I thought Noah told her about my neck but what came out of her mouth was worse.
I tried to calm her down but things only escalated and I usually knew what to do but this time things weren't gonna go as we planned, I can't let that bitch ruin Jamie's life over a stupid mistake. Not that one.
