Everyone says teenage years are the best years of your life. To some its true to others being a teen is a pain in the ass. But they get through it by little things like friends and music. That's were my story starts. I started my teenage years with loads of friends Hell I even had a loving boyfriend until it was all taken away. It all happened in one night.

Flashback

I was going over to my friends house to get away from my screwed up family when I got stopped on the way by my boyfriend Ben driving up in his car. " Hey sweetie, what are you doing out this late?" he asked stopping the car.

" Going over to Kelsey's house to escape my fucked up family" I replied looking into his dark brown eyes.

" Well get in. I'll give you a ride, I don't want you getting kidnapped or anything" Ben said as he opened the passenger side door.

I hesitantly climbed into his car and closed the door. We drove in silence all the way to her house. Once the car stopped I gave Ben a kiss on the cheek and got out of the car. I waited till his car was out of sight then went up to Kelsey's house and knocked on the front door. The door swung open seconds later.

" What are you doing over her so late?" Kelly, Kelsey's sister asked in a sassy attitude.

" To hang out with Kelsey, why else would I be here?" I asked giving her a 'duh' look.

Kelly rolled her eyes and started to walk toward the living room leaving the door wide open. I shook my head and entered the house. I went strait to Kelsey's room and found her on her bed listening to music. I went into her room and sat next to her on her bed.

" Hey girly what's going on?" she asked turning her sound system down.

" Nothing besides the fact that my fucked up family are at it again. I wish that they could just be normal and caring but that's to much to ask for isn't it" I said laying down on her bed.

She sighed and laid down next to me " What do you expect from people like that. They will forever be fucked up and uncaring, that's why you have me and Ben. So stop worrying about your fucked up family and lets have some fun!" she finished jumping off her bed pulling me with her and running toward her living room.

After letting her pull me all the way to her living room I sat in the chair exhausted. "Good Lord Charlie! Your so out of shape!" Kelsey said rolling her eyes.

"Sorry! Its not my fault! You know I hate working out and being active!" I said glaring.

Smirking she said " Are you SURE you don't like being active? Cause I swear you like to when your with Ben"

"Oh shut up that's not what I mean when I say active and you know it! And yes I like being active in that way, just not to get into shape cause I'm to lazy" I said crossing my arms.

The night went on without a hitch. We talked and laughed like hyena's. it wasn't until her mom came in the room when my life fell apart.

" Charlie, I have some bad news to tell you" she said sitting next to me on the sofa.

"…" I was so scared about what she had to say that I was speechless.

" Sweetie, I just got a call from the police. Your parents were found dead tonight. They don't know what caused there death but they said that were to watch over you until they know were your to go. I'm sorry baby" she said patting my knee and then walking off to her room.

I looked numbly at the floor. Sure I didn't have a good relationship with my parents but I still loved them and for fucks sake they were my parents. I felt Kelsey come next to me and wrap her arms around me. I slowly returned her hug and sat there with tears slowly poring down my face. So many thoughts were running through my mind. Like were I was going to go, who I was going to live with, what school I was going to go to, did I have to leave my friends and Ben behind? I don't know but hopefully I'll know soon. I hate not knowing what is going to happen in my life.
