The wind was blowing in my face, numbing my cheek bones and nose in the ice-cold atmosphere. We let the windows down as we drove alone on the deserted road, my head sneaking out into the air.I closed my eyes for a few brief seconds, as relief flooded through my entire system. I could hear the gradual roar of the engine as we sped up, and the demeaning silence it was bringing when we occasionally stopped to surpass the bumps.The rustling of leaves under the tires, and the distant growls of animals were the only noise in the silent weather, and the only thing that subsided against the slow music of the car.We are on our way back to Boston. After packing our things up and meeting up with Sean and Sapphire, we headed back to our home. Brett and I had no awkward moments, much to my relief, and Sean and Sapphire could thankfully not think about anything going on between us.I was glad, that I'm left free of explanation because I know that Sapphire is the first person that will be excited

I was sweating profusely. Suddenly, my limbs grew weaker than usual. I stared wide eyed at the person before and gasped.Sapphire ran a hand through her hair and roughly pulled them back. She came to me and hurriedly brought me to my feet."Are you okay?" She asked, her face drained of the blood. She palmed my face and searched for injuries. Knowing how I was almost harassed by him, she would obviously be worried about how my present state is.My mouth felt dry to reply. I opened my mouth to say something that would escape from me, but before anything could happen, Sapphire fell back on to the ground. I gasped when I realized that Parker had yanked her back by her hair."You bitch." Parker gritted the words out angrily, yanking her back. "It clearly looks like the both of you need some taming to be done."My eyes widened as he grabbed her and yanked her back angrily. She groaned in pain and struggled under his monstrous treatment. I didn't know what to do. I needed t help her from the

The damp cloth was still resting on my waist, treating my unhealed wound. It was supposed to reduce the burning sensation there and I think Brett is pretty good at nursing my wounds since I don’t feel the intensity of pain anymore.He went off to meet Linda, who was forced to not come to the police station so that Anna doesn’t know of her brother being arrested. My mom helped Linda with convincing Anna, so both of them had to let just me to go fetch him. Sean tagged along until he was sure I could handle the situation alone, since Sapphire was still in the hospital.She will be discharged tomorrow morning. Sean will probably just be there by her side until she goes home safe. Brett and I can go meet her tomorrow and thank her loads from our side.Brett promised to come back home and sleep with me tonight, because according to him, I don’t know how to take care of myself.Well, I’m not going to argue with him on that. But I’m pretty sure my mother knows how to take care of me better th

After a month"Are you listening to me?" My mother narrowed her eyes at me, slightly knitting her eyebrows together to let a frown form on her forehead.Her eyes had bags underneath, and a few dark circles brushing her skin. She hadn't slept well lat night. Well, to he very honest, she hadn't slept at all. It was evident by how many times she almost fell asleep on the table while we were having break fast."I am." I said, almost rolling my eyes at her but resisted my urge before I could throw myself in a situation that would earn me a good amount of scolding.My eyes burned too, partly because they released more tears and completely drained themselves of any liquid and also because of the many sleepless nights I have been having with everything going on."Where's your bag?" She asked, trying to test if I was really attentive in the conversation.The conversation was getting routine. She constantly reminded me that I should stress myself and that I should get nervous before the actual

His lips came crashing on me and knocked the air out of my lungs. Does that really happen to anyone, I wonder. For a few second, I could think about anything. My brain was in a mess, what was I supposed to make out of this?When he said he wanted to end my misery, I convinced myself that he was finally breaking up with me - for real. Although I was pretty sure we ended our thing the night I came out clean in front, I was still hoping that things would work in my favour and I'd never have to break our thing.But this - this insane act, the most unexpected one - this never occurred to me as a possibility. After what seemed like a few seconds, he finally let go of me."We're going to be late." He mumbled, looking at his watch. After a displeased frown formed on his face, he looked over at me and cupped my cheeks. "I want to make things right with you right now, Chloe, but I'm afraid we don't have the time. And I couldn't have waited until after the test - you were miserable and there was
