Holdontome Stories

A haunting and deeply emotional story about love, loss, and the invisible wounds people carry. Hold On to Me explores grief, memory, and the fragile ways we try to survive heartbreak.

-This isn't going to be the typical story about how a new girl falls in love with the bad boy and gains confidence and friends throughout the story and defeats the mean girl, of the school. Though I might do that in the future, this isn't one of those stories. Val Rossi and Jonah Freeman. The power couple of the school. Everyone knew they were together even if they didn't go to school. They've been together for almost 4 years now. They've been through the ups and downs of it all. Jonah, the captain of the football team, bad boy, popular guy with all the looks. Val, quiet, has an attitude and is the most popular girl in the school too. Everything has been going well until the first day of senior year. New people get introduced and in the way. Trust gets broken. People spread rumors. And people get hurt. He turns to me with a tired, frustrated face," What are we going to do, Val?" " Just, hold on to each me," I say and lean against him.

"It's 3 AM and all I want is, your lips on mine... It's the same time as yesterday, at 7 PM, or last Thursday, at noon. It's the same as every hour, every minute, every second, since I've met you." >>Egobang<<

My life has been an intense journey from a little girl who was beaten down and abused into believing that she was worthless, to a woman at 43 years of age who is still desperately searching for who she truly is. I found her though. I did. And she writes like me, from inside of me. She is me. This girl that I've been in love with since time first existed, is indeed me. The way that she walks. With her hands... and how she talks? The hearts that she's captured, the souls that she has inspired. I'm now trying to be her. I've never felt that I was good enough to actually be myself!!! I always knew how pure and clear and free I was inside. But people told me otherwise, in a very cruel way. No one ever spared my feelings or thought to speak to me with kindness or love. My parents were very serious and strict people. They believed that there was only 1 way to act and inside I knew that I did NOT fit in the parameters of the behavior expected of me. And every single time I made my Step Daddy sigh or frown it felt like I knife in my heart. I was a let down. Always too loud. Always moving too much. Always too fat and always too ugly. Always too much. Unless I sat quietly. But I've always been a firecracker and all of that containment really made me want to blow off! All of what was inside of me, swirling and dividing in me. Burying the side of me that I loved the most! I was a bastard and a blasphemy. Harsh words for a girl of 3. They said them when they baptized me.
