Chapter 10: The Bombshell
When I got home the lights were all off. I looked at the clock. 12:00 am. My mom should be asleep. A shadow moved in the living room and the lights flicked on.
"Where have you been Missy?"
"Uhh, I was at Maia's house"
"Why didn't you call and she brought you home this late"
"I didn't call it kind of slipped my mind" I laughed nervously "and she was going to a club and I didn't want to go so I came here"
"It SLIPPED YOUR MIND" she scoffed "really, do you KNOW how worried sick I have been" she had tears in her eyes.
"Mom what's wrong?"
She sighed" Honey, we- I mean you have to move"
"Wait, what do you mean I and not us"
Yesterday I died; tomorrow's bleeding
Fall into your sunlight
The future's open wide beyond believing
To know why hope dies
"Honey, your father, I tried I really did , he-" she broke off crying
"What mom!" My eyes stinging.
"Your father gained cusody he wants you away from me your moving to New Zeland"
Im leaving, and my moms no. My world just fell into into a black pit.
And losing what was found, a world so hollow
Suspended in a compromise
But the silence of this sound is soon to follow
Somehow sundown
And finding answers
Is forgetting all of the questions we call home
Passing the graves of the unknown
As reason clouds my eyes with splendor fading
Illusions of the sunlight
A reflection of a lie will keep me waiting
With love gone for so long
And this day's ending
Is the proof of time killing all the faith I know
Knowing that faith is all I hold
"Im sorry baby, I tried but he fought harder and has more money" She hugged me tight.
"NO! Im not leaving, NEVER" I struggled out of her arms and ran to my room. It seemed light slow motion, me running, thoughts rushing to my head.
Is he still the same?
Will I ever see my mom again?
What about my friends, school"
What about Jace?
And I've lost who I am, (i'm waiting)
and I can't understand (and fading)
Why my heart is so broken, (and holding)
rejecting your love, (love) without, (onto these tears)
love gone wrong; lifeless words carry on (i am crying)
But I know, all I know's that the end's beginning (i'm dying tonight)
who I am from the start, (i'm waiting)
I locked the door and cried on my bed. I looked up and saw my note book and the picture of us hanging up. I ripped it off and looked at it.
take me home to my heart (and fading)
Let me go and I will run, (and holding)
I will not be silent, (silent) all this time (onto these tears)
spent in vain; wasted years wasted gain (i am crying)
All is lost but hope remains and this war's not over (i'm dying tonight)
There's a light, there's a sun (i'm waiting...)
taking all these shattered ones
To the place we belong (i am waiting...)
and his love will conquer all
Shattered that's how I feel. I chucked it across the room and it broke into a million piecies. Loneliness, somebody who cares, who is that to me, nobody. I'm completely and utterly alone. It engulfs me and I can't get free. Nobody cares, nobody loves you, your different, being different is bad. Is it is it really. Love, hearts were made to be broken or so it seems. Mine is just full. Full of loneliness. Who will come set me free? Only time will tell. I'm fine, that's what I tell everybody. But every night I cry, Cry because I'm sad. NO I have Jace and Maia, Simon and my mother. But I will never see them again.
Yesterday I died; tomorrow's bleeding
Fall into your sunlight
I grabbed my notebook and started writing if I couldn't have a happy ending then Samantha will.
It was camp and Samantha was nevrous as heck. Jim just got out of the hospital but he was still home bound. Her parent told her that she could explore so she went out to the lake. The lake held lots of memories. Samantha and her family have came here since she was little.
Flashbacks:
"Mommy whats this"
"Jacob, come look our little girl had found a starfish, oh look its alive!"
"What's a star fish daddy?"
He rubbed little Samantha's head and explained to her what a star fish was.
Flashback:
12 year old Samantha came running up to her parents.
"Look who I have met" She pushed her new friends up.
"Aww who are you guys" My mother cooed
"MOM! *Sighs* this is Jim Smith" Samantha pointed to the boy "And this is Rachel Smith, there brother and sister"
"Hmm can I meet your mother some time?"
"Sure" Rachel smiled and led them to their cabin. Their mothers becoming Best Friends that day.
Flashback 1 year later:
"Hi I'm Daniel Hummel" A nice looking boy came up to Samantha.
She gasped and looked down from her tree branch; she blushed "Samantha Williams"
"May I come up?"
"Sure"
He climbed up with super speed. Samantha giggled and blushed.
PRESANT:
Samantha shuddered and wondered into the forest without thinking. Then she stopped dead in her tracks when a guy on a horse was standing in front of her.
"Daniel" she breathed. . She started running. She was running through the forest the Daniel and his horse right on her heals. He caught up to her and pushed her onto the ground. Her vision became blurry her eyes swelled with tears.
"Please Daniel!" She begged for her life. It wasn't her fault she dumped the loser. He had done drugs and now he was about to kill her. He held the knife up to her throat it barley pierced her skin making blood drip down her throat He chuckled and brought the knife deeper.
"Please, please please DANIEL" She cried
"Not before I get my revenge"
*BANG* everything happened in slow motion. Blood pored everywhere and Daniel collapsed.
"POLICE don't move" a guy shouted. Somebody came up behind Samantha startling her. A police man and her dad helped her up and her mom cradling her like a baby.
"O my god I thought I lost you" she cried
"How did you-"
"When you didn't come back we called the cops to look for you. A dog followed your scent and followed it to here" Her father explained.
"Is he- you know?"
"No, but he will go away for a LONG time I promise" Her mother hugged me. And from then on all was well. So I guess you could say Samantha lived Happily Ever After.
I fell asleep at my desk and dreamed if I would ever get a happily ever after.
