It's been forever and a day. I know but here is my first chapter of the new year. I guess I figured since my birthday is soon, I'd update as a birthday present to myself. I hope I have gotten better at this writing because I have been away for so long. And yes I am still an active member of fanfiction. I read Pokemon stories all the time. And I have watched Fruit Baskets (amazing). Lolz. I've been up to a lot. I'm like tripling up on stuff. I guess it's natural that I am because it is my last year of high school. Imma miss my teachers. Anyways... Here we go!

UnBroken
Chapter 1: Emotions
Brendan had just watched his May kiss him. That new guy from LaRousse. 'She just had to fall for him,' he thought. He couldn't bring his eyes to look away. Brendan watched them until the very moment they pulled apart. Angrily he stomped the opposite way and punched the closest wall. Ignoring the pain in his right hand, he marched his way down the hall faster. He pulled up his sleeves and watched the people pass him by. They were eyeing him but he didn't care.
Brendan eyed Sabrina, in her short black skirt that hugged her thighs and her low halter top, he pulled her arm away from who ever she was talking to. It didn't matter who it was to him. He kissed her hard and she kissed him back just as rough. 'This would certainly get her back,' he thought himself.
She squeezed herself closer to him and he pulled her closer to him. People in the hallways watched them. They whispered among each other. Brendan heard all their little comments and questions. He amazed himself at the complexity of the plan he was creating in his mind as the time passed between breaths, but then mid-kiss he pulled away from her and walked off as if he had never kissed her. She looked in the direction he went and sighed. Everyone was still looking at her.

"Norman! They just pulled into the driveway!" Caroline, May's mother shouted from the couch finishing her last minute snacks for May and her new boyfriend. Norman sluggishly walked down the stairs into the kitchen and sat at the table.
"Don't sit down, you little goose."
"What do you want me to do, Caroline?" Norman sighed.
"Anything but sit down there." Caroline whined as she placed some items in the fridge, "I just cleaned off the table."
"Why are you making a big fuss about this guy?" Norman said refusing to move, "You haven't even met this guy."
"Yes, I have."
"How did you meet the guy and I didn't?"
"Norman remember I told you that he came by last week to drop off May's books when she stayed home."
"No I do not recall."
"Well then, Norman, it's your fault for not listening to me when I speak," Caroline half shouted at him as she wiped off the counter. Norman stood apologetically trying to kiss his wife.
"I'm sorry, dear." She didn't let him and all Caroline did was stick her tongue out at him. Norman smirked and poked her sides. Caroline flinched and laughed.
"Norman, stop. You know I'm terribly ticklish." Caroline found it hard to restrain a laugh as he continued tickling her. Caroline flinched inside his arms as Norman chuckled at her vulnerability. "Norman, they'll be coming in soon. Ha haha."
"Let me kiss you."
"Ok. Okay. Okay." Norman finally stopped tickling her and she peck him on the lips. "Happy?"
Norman just smirked.

Sitting in Drew's car, May tapped her leg and leaned her head against the backrest. She couldn't stay still for a moment. Drew was meeting her parents and all she could think of was all the times she had tries to bring a boy home. Her father practically called her first boyfriend insane in his face. Her father had her second boyfriend followed by the police. Her most recent boyfriend was not even allowed in the house with an adult present in the same room. Brendan. She knew she did the right thing and she knew it. She hated him for what he did to her but she still missed him. Whether she liked it or not he owned a piece of her. May hoped that she would be able to live again and not remember. She hated how everything started coming back to him.
"A penny for your thoughts."
May just looked at him and smirked, "I'd have to see the penny first."
He just chuckled and reached into his pocket.
"You're not really-"
Drew laughed, "No. Someone's calling me."
"DREW!" May screamed, "You're driving."
"You must be in deep thought," Drew said as he picked up his phone.
"What's that suppose to mean?" May half shouted. Drew just pointed out the window and May looked outside her window embarrassed. They were already parked on the street in front of her house.
"Hey mom. What's up?" Drew got out of his car and opened May's door. May took Drew's hand and she smiled when he brought it up to her face to kiss it. He mouthed to her 'Are you okay?' to her. She just nodded her head.
"Yea, mom... I won't," May smiled as he talked to his mother with the slightest bit of annoyance. "Mom!... Love you. I'm here... Bye."
May silently walked to the door with Drew behind her. He squeezed her hand smiling at her noticing her silence. She squeezed back and giggled.
"Are you still nervous about me meeting your dad?"
May paused wondering whether or not to tell him... "How could you tell?" She lied.
Drew shrugged, " I just knew... Plus I'll do fine."
"How could you be so sure?" She looked away from him but he forced her to look at him and she did. She stared into his eyes: half thinking about her father but the other half of her was thinking about herself getting hurt again. She studied each shade of green in his eyes. She forced herself to look harder and she seen it: all of the possibilities, all the endings.
"I just do," She smiled and she felt a sense of relieve as if she had released the lava in a volcano. She didn't understand what she seen in him or even what he said to change her mind. All she knew was that she was terrified but now she felt hopeful. 'I'm letting go,' she told herself. 'I'm going to love him like I've never been broken.' She looked deeper at him and touched his cheek gently; he was real. She slowly moved closer into his chest and in her mind she begged, 'Just don't hurt me.'
"Are you sure you're okay?" Drew held her with one arm. May pulled away half embarrassed and nodded. She unlocked the door and walked into the house with Drew right behind her.
She took a breath and yelled, "Mom! Dad! We're home." Norman was already standing there with his arms crossed. May half smiled and went to her father to hug him. But her father's eyes never left Drew's face. This did creep Drew out a bit but he forced himself to keep smiling. She looked at her father and noticed his glare.
"Daddy, this is Drew: the guy I was telling you about."
"Hello, sir." Drew held out his hand to shake it. Norman, just looked at it. May cleared her throat as if to tell him to be nice. Her father didn't listen. Drew quickly pulled back his hand.
"Daddy," May begged. Drew never looked away from his glare.
"Go with your mother in the kitchen, May."
She looked at Drew and he smiled. Then she nodded to her dad and went into the kitchen.
