This isn't your average story. it's a story of love, passion, heartache, death and friendship I'm not going to lie to you this is a warning now: If you are one of the weak at heart this might test your strengths. The choice is yours now to either continue or not but the story begins now.
HEARTBREAK Pt. I
It all started with heartbreak. Yeah, they say that just because it's the first doesn't mean it will last, but still I always thought that I had a fairytale love straight from the storybooks. He was my gorgeous prince and I was his warrior princess. I loved him far more than most find capable, it was irrevocable raw passion always beating right below the surface with us but he respected my boundaries and never pushed me. I always thought he felt the same way for me I guess fate just had to prove me wrong.
It was that time again; the end of the school year and for a lot of couples the end for them. A lot of girls suffered from what I like to call GWS or "Grease-Wannabe-Syndrome" they were hoping to find some summer lovin' with a bad boy like Danny with a soft side. The guys suffered from OBWD "Obsessive Bay Watch Disorder" ready to find their 'hot summer beach babe'. I on the other hand was just trying to make sure I had everything packed for my trip to Hell in disguise. I was going to stay with my dad in his condo in Madrid, Spain. Ugh, I know right but, I'm still not sure how I got so lucky with my boyfriend, Dimitri. He had come up with a brilliant plan, to meet me in Madrid and spend the rest of the summer with me after his family's annual trip to Baia, so that I wouldn't want to completely kill myself after being in that man's presence so long.
Here's the deal with daddy dearest. So he and my mom had been so 'in love' all through high school. Dad was a bad boy, mom was a sweet innocent little Irish girl with a fiery passion hidden inside. Okay perfect couple right? HA! You wish it only started off alright. Mom told him she was pregnant with me and he proposed instantly. Mom was four months when they got married. Okay so they were happy and everything for the first month! Then the fighting came. They did not get along at all living together. Finally he screwed up cheating on mom and well they got divorced mom got custody of me and dad, well he might as well have disappeared into thin air, seeing as he barely even attempted to be in my life until last year. Aside from the birthday gifts, and occasional Christmas card it was safe to say we had little contact and for that, I loathed the man. It was one thing to leave my mom but you didn't have to leave me too. If it wasn't for mom promising that he would probably be busy working most of the time and her agreeing with Liss on it being a 'good idea and great time for us to reconnect' I wouldn't be going on this stupid trip.
Then Dimitri's little plan had only inclined me to go more. Who wouldn't want a little romance time with their boyfriend. We might even be able to have a little 'fun'. Fun that we had only had a few times. It had been last winter our group had went on a ski trip. We had all been in cabins Dimitri had been bunked with Christian and I had been with Liss. Well one night Liss and Christian had beat me back to our room so I just decided to go and stay with Dimitri since he had an extra bed. Well when I got there one thing led to another and I lost my virginity to him. Even though everyone else had thought it had been years ago. I guess we hadn't done it much after because a few days later Mason and Mia decided they would stay a while longer and just leave a few days after everyone so they could have some 'alone time' together. On their way back home the roads were slick and it was dark and he was drunk. He didn't mean to he was just trying to avoid a deer. But…the car swerved and he drove straight through the rails into a tree. He died instantly. Mia was only awake long enough to think he passed out. Then she blacked out. The next day a trucker found them Mia was gripping on to his body begging him to wake up but his body was ice cold. They got her to a hospital but she feel into a coma not long after they arrived there. She finally pulled back through in early March a whole month later. It was the worst Christmas vacation ever. And none of us had ever been the same.
After that Mia had moved to Pennsylvania with her dad, but had been forced to come back when her mom got sick last fall. She had reoccurring breast cancer and had been diagnosed as Stage III. The doctors have been trying as hard as they can but they are doubting that she will make it. When everyone found out it had really shaken up our group, we were like a little family, and we all loved her like a second mom. For us girls, she had been our soccer coach when we were little and then went on to be our favorite teacher in high school (she taught Home Ec). Everybody's been doing there part going by and spending time with Mia and her mother, especially Eddie. He's really been there for Mia lately and she really needs that. We all think that those two are going to get together before the summer ends.
Most of the breakups that were occurring could be seen from a mile away, but there was one that no one saw coming, not even me. Lissa and Christian. They had been going strong going on four years, but last week she decided she wanted more 'experience' to make sure they were right for each other. I, of course, promptly called her an idiot and took up Christian's defense. Hey, even
if we do fight all the time he's still like a brother to me, one that I want to kill sometimes, but a brother nonetheless. So needless to say; Lissa and I were in the middle of a silent World War III at the moment. Usually I would give in, but this time she had went to far. Who breaks up with the guy that loves them more than anything for 'more experience'?
I had tried talking to Christian after everything but all he said was. "Don't be sorry for me. I'm sorry for you because they only set us up Rose. He'll break your heart top just like she broke mine. They find it fun it's a sport they're only using us as decoys until whoever they really love comes back." I quickly left after that because really he had no clue what he was talking about. Dimitri loved me just like I loved him. Christian had no clue what he was talking about it was only the heartbreak talking. Right? Then why was there a steady sinking feeling in my gut.
