Quicksand
Chapter 25
Her name is Avery Mitchel. She's a stunning. Smart. Mystery.
She just showed up in a couple of my classes. Last year.
She never really hangs out with anyone.
"So tell me how did the detention go.? Please tell me you talked to her.?" Ivey asked.
"I did. She didn't say much. But she knows me."
"And i was nervous for nothing."
...
Rachel finished her shift at Clothes over bros. And made her way out of the store and towards the parking lot.
Her and Mouth's discussions about having kids were now turning into actual attempts at trying to get pregnant.
Rachel paused her heart sinking. As her purse fell to the ground.
"Avery." She said softly.
"You had to know at some point i would end up back here."
"You just handed me off to you're parents.!"
"And acted like i didn't exist. What kind of mother are you!" Avery exclaimed.
Rachel swallowed hard. "I'm not you're mother. I signed paper work a long time ago making sure of that." She proclaimed. Before walking to her car. Getting inside and driving away.
...
Brooke wasn't sure what to make of the sight of Lucas awaiting her on the front steps of her home.
"What is this about Lucas.?" Brooke asked. Generally curious.
He handed her box. Addresed to her.
"I wrote to you. An almost full box of letters. During this year we were apart. I didn't call you or text you because it was too hard. Hearing you're voice."
"Feeling that consuming ache in my chest that i have anytime. I'm without you."
"Love is about sacrifice. I had to do that 8 years ago. And doing it again now."
"When you confessed you're feelings for me all those years ago."
"It took every ounce of self control i had not admit how in love with you i was and still am."
"You've moved on. Clay is going to give you what i can't."
"What i am not capable of. Have it all Brooke you deserve it."
"I'm taking myself out of you're life." Lucas stated matter of fact.
