Black Heart
Chapter 1
There are times in our lives when we want to move on, but we don't. For the reason we don't move on is because if we let go, we forget or hope that what we lose, comes back.
Just looking at that silver chain with the half heart that says friends makes 19 year old Evangeline want to curl up in a little ball and go back to the good old days. The days when she was little and was with her best friend. The times where her mom was still alive and her life was full of joy. Her live was never as good as people thought it was, her mom remarried and had 2 more children, unfortunately one of them died at the age of four. Which left Eve's mom, short for Evangeline, slightly in a state of depression. Eve only had one friend in the big city, his name was Dallas, Dallas Winston. He was actually her first "boyfriend", not counting her best friend down in Tulsa, he had cold icy blue eyes and hair that was so blonde it could be white. He also had perfect white teeth, which always confused Eve considering he smoked. Her and Dallas never really dated they just did everything together. Their relationship lasted only 5 or 6 years considering his Dad had moved them somewhere else, and she has not seen him since. Eve never thought her life would be so complicated except when she lost her best friend. She was wrong, dead wrong! On her sixteenth birthday her mom and step-dad died in a car crash with a drunk and her half-sister, Anna, was then take away and adopted by a nice couple who were living in Pittsburgh, Pa. Unfortunately since Eve was only 2 years form 18 she could not be adopted, only fostered. Eve was fostered by a nice lady named Sally who live up in Windrixville, OK, just about her home town, Tulsa! But one day before Eve's 19 birthday Sally died of natural cause leaving her all alone, just like when her mom died.
That annoying silver chain holding half a heart with a single word, best, is just enough to make 20 year old Darry Curtis cry. It's been 14 years since he last saw his best friend /some-what crush, Eve. Her mom had won custody over her since everyone found out her dad abused her. Eve had been Darry's best friend since he could remember, but her mom had made them move up to her home town, New York. Eve would be 19 now, she was exactly one year younger then him Darry remembered. Gosh he missed her, it's been a while since he actually thought about her. That necklace is really the only thing he has to remember her. "Here, you can keep this." Darry looked down at what Eve held in her hands, a chain that said best on half a heart hanging down from it. "It is to remember me by, I have the other half, mine says friends on it". A small tear fell from her brown eye streamed down Eve's cheek, "I'll always remember you", and with that she kissed him, on the mouth, turned around and left for New York. He had not realized he was crying until his younger brother came in, Sodapop, and asked what's wrong. Lying he said, "Just thinking about mom and dad that's all", stuffing the necklace in his pocket and getting up to make the gang dinner.
