In Another Life

Prison

Valentina P.O.V

I limp into the grey prison. Well the front of it. I had no clue what a jail would look like but now I knew. The walls were gray and the floors were white. I take a deep breath in and out.

"Is Dylan Mosley in this facility?" I ask the guard behind the desk.

"Let me check." He says and types away on his computer. I hit my finger against the counter waiting for him to tell me.

"Okay ma'am he left two days ago, it says he went into rehabilitation in Washington." The man replies making my heart drop.

"Oh-." I try to say, but a familiar voice behind me speaks up.

"Oh my gosh is that you Valentina?" I hear Dylan's dad announce making me turn my head slightly.

"It's so great to see you again." He says bringing me in for a hug.

"Yea you too." I smile and look around.

"Is Dylan okay?" I crease my eyebrows and look up at him again.

"Well he'd thought you'd be here looking for him." He laughs and points over to Dylan's car.

"He said he wants to talk with you." He says nodding his head.

"Thank you." I smile and slowly limp over to the car. I heard the door unlock and I sat carefully into the silent car.

I sat looking straight forward. I didn't think I would be embarrassed but I was. I shouldn't be it was all him.

"Sorry I stalked where you were." He announces after a few minutes of silence.

"Umm-I saw the video." He pauses and I feel him look over at me.

"Yea what a fucking joke." I laugh and shake my head back and forth.

"You love him though Val." He lightly replies with hurt in his voice.

"Well maybe I did or maybe I didn't, all I know now is that he's worse than you." I say looking over at Dylan who had purple under his eyes.

"What happened?" I crease my eyebrows and touch his cheeks. He smiled down at me and looked down at my lips.

"You know I'm going to jail right?" He sighs and looks away in front of him.

"We will get through it together." My smile fades as I see him start to cry. Never in my life would I see him do this.

"You might have hurt me so bad, really bad, but that's what you do when you love someone. You fight for them and I will fight for you." I wrap my arms around his neck and I feel him breath heavy on my neck.

"Val I can't take you with me to Washington. This is toxic and I made it that way. Any hope you had of us getting back together it can't happen." He says and pushes me back.

My heart fell and then I knew I didn't have anyone. Reality hit me again and I say back in my seat.

"I just wanted to see you before I go." He whispers and tucks a piece of my hair behind my ear.

"I'll always love you Valentina Garcia." He says.

"I will always love you to Dylan." I faintly smile and open the door.

The air was cold and my world started to go black and white. My eyes start to water as I look back at the car that was long gone out of my sight. I took a deep breath in and out. I start to run the way home. Callie had dropped me off at my house. I didn't tell her and she was probably at dinner with her stepmom.

I wipe my tears and cover my uncovered arms and walked calmly, though my emotions were everywhere.

One I stood at my front door I took a step in. I heard my parents talking and saw them eating with Luca.

"Oh my gosh we were so worried!" My mom creases her eyebrows and rubs over to me.

"I have-have to go." I shutter and look at her with my mascara running down my face.

"Why what's wrong?" She asks and my dad runs up to us.

"What happened?" He asks and envelops in a hug. I looked back at Luca who had an ashamed look on his face.

Before I could say anything my phone rang. I picked it up from the counter and answered Dylan's dad.

"He's gone Val." He cries in the phone.

"Wha-?" I lose all my breath and look into outer space.

"He was going back for you and made a turn and a fucking car hit him! He didn't-." He couldn't finish the sentence before breaking down crying.

I dropped my phone making it shatter on the hardwood floor.

"Valentina?!" My dad yells looking down at my mess.

I let my tears fall down and I run out of the house. I saw the blue and red lights five doors down. I kept running even though it hurt so much, I saw them carting Dylan on the stretcher and cover up his body.

"No Dylan!" I yell and try to run to his body but I feel Luca hold me back.

"Fuck you!" I say pushing him away.

"Your the reason he's dead!" I scream and quickly run to him.

I uncover his face that was cold and blue. I let out a gasp for air and lean my forehead against his.

"Please come back to me." I cry out and kiss his lips.

"I love you." I whisper and pushed away by Luca. He had my arms behind my back and started towards home.

"Get off me Luca." I cry out and try to get out of his hold.

He only grabbed me tighter and I screamed in pain. He was gone and he was coming to get me. We could have started all over again, had a family and got married. My future was left in the dark as I see my mom and dad crying with me.

But they didn't know the pain I felt.
