Missing Peices (Raura)-editing

New Findings- Chapter 7

Rocky's POV-

We arrive at the venue about three minutes after I used my natural intellagence to figure out the exact location of it. We pull up to this stone brick, mid-evil looking buliding. It has little flags hanging off the sides of the walls and looks like a faint stone shaped crown. We all pile out of the van and head inside. This place looks more like a castle by the second! There are torches that line the wall of the back entrance hall and pictures of famous people who played here, posted in wooden frames. Theres a red carpet running down the hall. We make our way down the hall way. I wonder why would leave something here out of all places? Weird but that Ross for Ya.

We eventually make it to the end of the hall where it splits off into different directions. One way goes to the dressing rooms and another goes back stadge and into the meet greet area. Another leads to the real stadge and another just goes back outside. We all make it to the middle and I see Rydel pull up a chair and stand up on it.

"Attention people!!!" She screams and we all go silent and face her," okay I have an idea on how to look for the next clue. We all know that he loved music and there are insturments everywhere so I'm thinking maybe he hid something in the imsturments. I want mom and dad and Ryland to go back through the halls and look through the display cases and me and Riker and Rocky will go and look else where like ok stadge and stuff okay?"

We all nod and go out separate ways. I'm walking around backstadge and find a painio in the corner of the room. It's the same painio Ross was playing before the show and I literally had to drag him off of the bench and pull him on stadge. I had to bribe him with a gutair that I held in my hand and he chased in on stadge like dog running after a ball. It wa a pretty funny. Boy my brother loved music. I smile at the thought. I wonder if he still does?

I move closer to the panio and sit in the bench of it. Yes I do play panio just not at shows and stuff cause that's Dellys job. I place my fingers on the keys and start playing one of our old songs. I hit one of the keys and notice it doesn't work like something is blocking it. So I lift up the lid and look down at the inside and see a small package under one of them. It's a small box wrapped in yellow tissue paper and tied with a ribbon. I pick it up and see that's it for me. I decide to open it cause hey free presents!!!!! I open it to find a white box and open it up to find an R5 Gutair pick, but this one is different it ha da picture of us on it like it was custom made or something. And on the back in gold letters it's says "Family is worth fighting for" i tear up a little bit, because I know who this is from and the fact that in the picture we are smiling, together. I remeber those days. I pick it up to find its a necklace like the ones we used it have. The silver is cold against my skin. I let it hang around my neck. I find a folded piece of paper underneath the cotton in the box and it's a note from Ross that says

"Hey Rocky,

I knew you how much you like to try new things or to change it up sometimes. So j left tis for you. Please keep the pick it's all yours. ;-) if you're wondering why I left it here of all places it's because its the last place I smiled. The moments maybe be over but the memories will never fade. But when it comes to love both can last a life time.

P.S: that was your clue 😉 gooduck at see you at the end

I feel so blessed to get a clue from him. I mean I know I will have to do a little show and tell to everyone with this but it's still nice, knowing he was thinking about me. "HEY I FOUND IT!" I shout and everybody comes running toward me at once.

Before they could ask questions I get it and tell "Paris here we come!!!"

Venessa's POV-

Today is just another day. Another 24 hours that I'll spend missing my little sister. I can't believe she just left like that but I guess I get it. To my parents I was the queen and she was a towns folk. It's like I'm living another Cinderlla story where, she is stuck doing the dirty work and getting torched and I'm just the evil step sister watching and pushing her away because I thought I was better. When in reality I wasn't any different from her. Our parents should of treated us the same. It's not fair to like someone more than another person especially when they are your daughters. I could of stood up for her but I didnt. I regret that. Everyday wishing I could of done differently. Turn back the clock and fix what was broke, but I can't.

I haven't been I her room since because I'm afraid of what's in there.

To tell you the truth I wasn't that I didnt like her or anything it was the fact that I was jealous of her. She didn't have people following her around everywhere she went. She didnt have to be pressured to do things because of everybody around her. She didn't have to go against her family or sister for anything. She didn't have to hate. Her life wasn't fake. It was real. Her emotions and everything she said was real. No fake words or meaningless expressions. Just everything was natural and complete, almost. The biggest thing is though is she got to make her own choices in life. What she wanted and her path was hers to choose. I was forced to do things and to say stuff I had no say in anything I did. She got to learn everything wa Adobe for me which to be real I hated.

I think today will be the day I go into Laura's room. I walk across the hall and touch the metal knob on the door. It cold against my warm fingers and I slowly turn the knob and push open the door. In small cracks so that I had more time to do brace my self. Loosing patients I push it all the all the way open. The room looks like something out of a movie. It's all organized and neat. Everything that's left has its place and is straight and up right. There is a this late rod dust covering the furniture in the room, probably from the lack of cleaning. I see her bed side table to see a crystal clear case with a red rose sitting in it. Placed carefully on the surface. I notice there is a card leavkng agianst the vase. It says Venessa on it. I think its strange because I see the rose is fresh. I think she has been here. Which brings teas to my eyes.

I pick up the envlope with the card and tear it open to find a note written inside.

Dear Venessa,

I just wanted to tell you that I'm okay and in a better place. I know you didn't try to be mom and dad to hate me but you took advantage of it. I remember an olf quote that says "sisters by change, freinds by choice," I gave you change after chanxe and you never did take them. I wish we could of been closer because your not always going to have a sister. I got lucky though.

I couldn't stand by and watch you become the "queen" amy longer. I figured you Wher ebough for mom and dad and that I wa a mistake waiting to happen. I mean if why stick around people that don't know you? Or don't love you. It's pointless in my opinion. I did dirty work while you sat on the couch bs got your feet rubbed. You don't know how much that hurt me inside. My heart broke into a million pieces everytime. I felt so left out and unloved that it destroyed me. I was lost and lonely. It was awful enough to try and be live dnt people who don't. I Know you can't please everybody bur somehow I couldn't please you. I would get bullied at school too ,but I got used to that after a while. All I knew it that I coild t stay. I had to start Over so I ran awat. I mean imagine it? Being hate dnt your family.

I hope you come back for me one day and I love V.

-Laura
