Two halves reunited

Chapter 1: The Beginning

Alexa's Point of view

"Get out of my face NOW!" He yelled, "You worthless piece of trash. Your sister should have been an only child.  You're so pathetic. You think I love you, as if. You're not worth your mother's life. "He hit me in the face, kicked me in the stomach, chucked the beer bottles at me, but never my sister.... He raped me, stabbed me, and tried to kill me......

Then I woke up.

It had been three years since the day Abby, and I got out of that living hell. Since then, our lives are so much different. After we got away from him, Abby felt bad because he never attacked her, only attacked me and that she only ever watched. I told her that I was protecting her (which was a lie). She knew I was lying, and we argued. It got so bad that she tried to leave. She had thought that she'd ruined my life, thought i was better off without her.i told her that she was still my sister and that i loved her but we were never the same. I was never really connected to her. She went from my twin sister to a roommate...

Abby's point of view:

I got up when I heard a scream. It sounded like it came from my sisters' room. I got up and looked in her room, she was sitting up on the headboard crying... She must have seen him in her nightmare. I could feel her pain. I felt so bad i couldn't face her, so I called her best friend Madison.

She started to hang out with Madison more after our fight two years ago. We don't talk about it because if we do, we'll start fighting. If we were to fight again, I think I would leave for real this time. The first time we fought I tried to leave but she wouldn't let me. I felt like everything was my fault and that I should be out of her life. She told me she needed me and that she couldn't lose me too, so I stayed.

When stuff like this happens, I feel so guilty. That's when Maddie comes in because if I ask alexa what's wrong, she'll say nothing to prevent me from feeling bad...even though i already do... After I hung up the phone with Maddie, I go downstairs to make us all breakfast. A few minutes later I hear the doorbell ring and I get the door. "Hey, Mads, she's in her room. "I say. "Hey Abby, thank you for calling me "she responded. "No problem! "She walked into the house and headed for my sisters' room.

They're so alike, sometimes I think they're dating behind my back or something. Well, that's what I'm doing with Jayden my boyfriend, Maddie's older brother. Neither Maddie nor my sister knows we're dating or at least i think...we've been sneaky for the most part. We've been together for a year and a half.you may be wondering why were keeping our relationship a secret and the answer is if im super happy when alexas still dealing with the horror and pain it will seem like im moving on without her...well that was the excuse for the first few months now its been a year and i half and if i tell her now it might break our relationship more... at least I have a date with Jayden today to relieve my mind.

On my way out, I look into my sisters' room and see her cuddled up next to Maddie asleep. Maddie looked at me and smiled blushing "she told me her dream, so I comforted her until she fell asleep "she explained. "Do you have something you need to do today? "I asked "No, I can stay until you get back "she answered. "Thank you so much, call me if you need anything. I will be back in 2 hours. "No problem, I'm happy too. "I smiled and headed out the door, forgetting all about breakfast. I sigh and get in my car and go to H&H to meet up with Jayden...

Madison's point of view (Back when Abby called Maddie):

I got my keys and drove to their house as soon as I hung up with Abby. When I got there, I rang the doorbell.  Abby opened it and told me that Alexa was in her room. I thanked her and went into Alexa's room. I knocked on it softly. "Hey, it's Maddie, "I said. "Come in," she said in a quiet voice. I walked in and saw her huddled up with a pillow leading on the headboard. I sat down on the bed and looked at her. Her eyes were red and puffy, her cheeks were tear-stained, she looked so sad. I moved next to her and cuddled with her "tell me what happened "I said.

"well..." then she explained to me what happened in the dream. She started crying so I hugged her tighter. "hey how about we talk about something else...like how i think jayden is dating someone..." i said. "well i've also seen abby go meet up with someone a few times she says that shes meeting a friend but i'm pretty sure there not just a friend ..." she replied. "is that right.." we talked for a little bit..eventually she fell asleep in my arms. I always had a crush on Alexa she was just so strong and kind. She's so protective over the things she loves. She went through a lot just for her sister. I have trusted her with all my secrets, and she's done the same. I want to protect her with all my might.

So, I brought her and her sister into the H&H: a government organization that helps protect the world. I could tell I did the right thing because the Twins look so much happier. I know her past still haunts her, and every time it does, I'm always there. Abby and I get along, but I think she wishes that Alexa was as close to her as she is with me.

Alexa has told me about their fight and the awkward conversations that came after... she always complains on how she wishes she could be closer to abby and that abby would want the same...she really does love her sister so much that it pains me whenever those awkward convos sneak in. i look down at the beautiful girl in my arms when abby comes to the door and informs me she's leaving after she leaves that when it all went up in flames...
