PLOT: A/U: Returning back home is never easy... especially when you've been living a lie for the past five years.
When Paige left Pensacola she was 19 years old and pregnant- the only person who knew was her best friend Dean Ambrose, they both swore never to return to Pensacola but when a tragic family accident happens, they have no choice but to come back home and finally confront their pasts they left behind.
Pairings to be revealed as the story progresses.
Five Years Ago...
It was always sunny and hot, Pensacola was known for it's heat, the small Florida town had beaches, lots of them scattered about them, but for some reason the young girl only finds herself coming here with her boyfriend, it's their spot.
They are young and in love, it's a classic tale, you've probably heard before.
They had been together a year and tonight was the night they were going to finally give themselves to each other.
She was going to give herself mind, body and soul to her boyfriend in their signature spot where they had their other firsts- where they met, where they had their first date, where they had shared their first kiss...
Now it would be forever known as the spot where Paige lost her virginity.
This was the beginning of the end for them.
They just didn't know it yet.
Present Day...
i felt a nervous wave of energy flowing through me, the minute the pilot mentioned that we were less than half an hour away from landing at Orlando Airport, I was fine when I got on the plane even if i knew where it would eventually be landing somewhere I swore I would never come back to.
I look beside me to see my best friend for as long as i could remember Dean, his hair needed cutting it was falling in front of his eyes- I barely sees his blue eyes these day and I know being back here is going to affect him too, he left everything he knew to help me five years ago.
He was sat staring into space a blank expression on his face, it was unreadable, his lips pursed tight, his eyes glazed over, this scared me, Dean always smiled and fidgeted the opposite of what he was now.
For the past five years they, I say they that essentially means me, Dean and my little girl Elleigh have been living happily and care free in New York.
Elleigh is four years old and resembles both me and her father in so many ways and I know that must kill Dean to look at her, as Elleigh's father is the cousin of his ex-boyfriend, I know it kills Dean even if he doesn't say anything as I know he never told the love of his life why he had to leave the night they broke up and Dean came with me.
That was five years ago.
It had been five years since either of us has been or even though about Pensacola Florida and all the people and things we left behind.
Yet here we are about to return home, not through our own choice- my mother had been ill, really ill and she sadly was hospitalized and I knew I had to come home, I have to make the peace with the woman who brought me into this world even if it meant I have to confront my past even if i have spent the last five years avoiding this place like the plague.
I couldn't do this by myself, i don't really know how i did it- maybe it was Elleigh in the end that convinced Dean he needed to come along, because we needed him to be there with us, it's painful for me to know that Elleigh has never met any real family other than Dean, he's like her father figure, Uncle and friend all rolled into one.
The one thought running through my head when we got on the plane was him.
What if I saw him again?
What is his life like now?
Has he moved on?
Is he happy
As much as I tell Paige, my only real friend in this world that I don't think about Pensacola at all, it's not a lie, well not a one hundred percent like it's about fifty percent truthful, I don't think of the place anymore but mainly about him and what could have been, if me and Paige had stayed.
What would have become of all of us?
But us coming home, has nothing to do with me and my past life, this is about Paige, I'm here to help Paige (and Elleigh) get through this I remind myself.
I glance across, Elleigh occupies the middle seat between us, she's away with the fairies, fast asleep whereas Paige is wide awake, staring into space, I wonder what she's thinking about, as if I don't already know.
"We are going to be alright ok?" I say to her, she glances at me attempting a half smile at me.
"What's the worse thing that happen?" I ask out loud as well as that question echoing in my mind as the plane finally lands at our destination.
