I ran back to the car and shoved all of my bags in the back seat, sitting down with my head in my hands.
"Do you need a minute or do you want me to go?" Tom said, putting his hand on my back.
"Go" I muttered. I don't know why I was so upset, I used to dream about leaving that house so why would I get upset about it now? I thought about the picture, I couldn't get it out of my head. I reached in the back and grabbed the bag it was in. I opened it up and stared at the photos again. Lewis was on there, I missed him so much. There were so many good times I shared with him and now there's nothing, except this picture and his grave. And my stepbrother, I felt so bad for leaving him behind but he was okay, he was happy.
Before I knew it we were back at the house and Tom was helping me with the bags. I walked straight upstairs with them, ignoring the others who were waiting downstairs.
"How did it go? What happened?" I heard Reece ask Tom, the creaking of floorboards signalling someone coming upstairs.
"I don't know mate but I'd give her a bit of space if I were you. I think she wants to sort her stuff out alone" Tom replied. The floorboards stopped creaking meaning someone was at the top of the stairs.
"I'm not letting her out of my sight, not after last night" Reece said, before walking into the room. I put the picture frame on the bed, stood up and walked over to him. I hugged him tightly without saying a word.
"How did it go?" He asked, resting his chin on the top of my head.
"He just told me to get out basically so I grabbed my stuff and left. I found that on my bedside table too" I said, gesturing to the pictures. There was still room for one more picture and I wanted it to be of Reece and the rest of the boys. Reece sat down and looked at it.
"Your mum is beautiful, just like you" he said stroking my face. "Now let's go cheer you up, I think we're all starving and we'll look at this later." He took my hand and kissed my cheek, leading me back downstairs and towards the car.
It was like a cross between a family carrier and a mini bus and seated 10 people which was good. All of the boys were really noisy as I directed Tom to the closest Nandos. It was nice, just to take my mind off everything and have a laugh with the lads. I felt almost happy, but there was still something missing and I have no idea what that is. For now though I just wanted to forget everything that has happened.
A/N
Sorry for not updating for a few days but I've gone back to school and I'm really busy so I haven't had time. Here's two chapters that I hope are okay. I'm trying to pass a bit of time because I have quite a big plot coming up in a few chapters.
