Once Upon a Fairy Tale (A Kendall Schmidt Fanfic)

Chapter 7.... You'll soon be memories.....

We've been in this car for three days. Silence has been my bitter sweet remorse from the tragedy in my heart. After the first day I manage to be shuffled to the back seat where I can hide my pain. If Isaac sees me cry, he'd show anger towards me and there's no telling what he'll do. Headphones have been my best friend even though most of the songs kill me with the single thought of, Kendall normally listens to them too. It took most of my strength I had left not to listen to my favorite playlist. It was the playlist Kendall created for me. I close my eyes and try not to think about it.

The car suddenly stops and it worries me. I turn off my music and look up at the night sky. I see we're stopped at a gas station.

"I'll be right back" I hear Isaac mumble under his breath. I nod my head even if he can't see. It's just an instant response to answer him. He shuts the door and locks it. He doesn't trust me, he never has. I pull my phone out of my bag I had hid under the seat when we were packing. I was supposed to leave it there, but I couldn't. I do have a family back home and I'm not going to lose contact with them. Well not yet....

It takes a minute for my phone to turn on and show everything I have missed. 89 new texts, 72 new voicemail and 109 missed calls. I don't have time to look through all, but most were from Kendall. I see the last message though.

From: Spiderman(d:

I get it... You didn't feel the same way. I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't have done it, especially since it meant loosing you, but I just let it go. I do regret losing you but I don't regret saying I love you because I do whether you love me back or not. The thing is Lauren, I know you and this isn't you. I have never known you to run away. Even when you found out Isaac is a killer who escaped and his next possible suspect is you, you stayed here. You didn't run. Maybe it was me though. I don't know really what I'm saying but now I guess I'm coming to the conclusion you wanted. I'll leave you alone, but Lauren I can tell you right now, I will never forget about you...

Again with the heart dropping effect, the tears I was holding in fell down my face. Through the blurriness I see a Twitter interaction pop up.

@Heffrondrive :If only she would tell me she's okay or show a sign of herself being normal... I guess I would do the painful choice of letting her go.

I saw Isaac at the register so my time was running out. I wiped the tears away from my face and posted a new tweet.

@tylerk1596: Fun day! I love traveling!(:

I wasn't lying. I was traveling. I didn't say who I was traveling with though. Instantly there was a new tweet from Kendall.

@Heffrondrive: Well I guess it's time to make my promise and do the painful choice. Hope she knows I did love her.

There... Okay the word did. He's moving on. Okay... Lauren you need to, too.

I shut my phone back off and shove it back under the seat just in time. Isaac opens the door and gets in.

"Here" he says as he hands me a bag.

"I got you something's that should hold you over till we get home." I take the bag and smile.

"Thanks" he nods and starts the car. As he backs out I look back out to the night sky. I roll the window down to feel the night air on my face. My life hasn't turned out how I wanted it too but for now I have to live it like I'm dying.

At 80 miles an hour your eyes don't really catch much on the side of the road, but a store caught mine. It was the store Kendall bought our friendship bracelets at. They weren't fancy. Just a simple rope that said "friends till my memorie's gone, even then our friendship will live on". It might not have been much to someone but to me it was. These memories I keep thinking of are coming back to life, but I don't mind, yet the one thing I wish I could forget, the memory I wanna forget, is goodbye....
