I wander around outside and look at the closed track, that used to be Pipers reality escape.
But now its just closed.
I shake my head and walk off, wishing I had an escape from reality like Piper did.
She was my escape though.
And now I couldn't look at her without feeling like I was betraying her in some way.
I probably was.
God, I was a disgusting human being.
Sighing, I wrap my jacket around me tighter.
Piper needed to be told. She didn't deserve to be left in the dark.
My head aches from all the arguing I've done with myself.
I rub my temples gently to ease the pressure.
The guards signal that yard time is over.
Other inmates retreat towards the door like I do.
Were ushered in and I hear the slam of the door, shutting behind us.
Locking us in once again.
I make my way to the laundry room.
Might as well get ahead on the laundry while I have no distractions.
And partially hoping Piper is there.
I had to explain.
My feet move as I count my steps.
I walk into the laundry room and see Piper standing and looking at a lamp.
The lights on it have been flickering. Something about the wires being old.
"Hey." I say lowly.
She doesn't respond, but her body tenses at the sound of my presence.
Did she already know?
"Piper?" I try again.
Nothing.
My heart clenches.
She knows, I think to myself.
I walk to her and touch her shoulder.
She flinches away and whips around to face me.
Taking in her appearance, I gasp at the sight.
Her eyes are puffy, and her face looks pale. Her cheeks sink in so you can see the outline of her cheek bones.
The eyes In front of me look drained.
No spark. No life. No happiness.
"You kissed her." She said plainly. As if waiting for me to confirm it.
But I can't find the courage to answer her.
"You kissed Nicky." She states again.
But I remain silent.
"Answer me!" She yells.
She shoves me once in the shoulders.
"Yes!" I yell back.
My world crashes down In front of me.
Saying it out loud just makes it so much more real.
Tears fall down my face.
Piper clenches her eyes shut and shakes her head.
"Pipes-" I start.
"Don't, I need time." She answers.
I go to touch her shoulder but she pushes me away.
I walk backwards as I replay what just happened in my head.
My back touches the wall, but as tears blur my vision, I see Piper run out.
My knees buckle, unable to support my weight.
I sink to the floor and cry.
I lost Piper.
But I refused to believe it.
She was the love of my life.
And I couldn't let her walk away so easily.
I just had to give her time.
We could fix this.
Right?
**A/N**
Sorry for the last post!
Crazy and stressful week. My sincerest apologies for the long wait.
I from now on won't promise when a chapter will be up, because I can never get these up on time.
So, I'll just simply try and get one up every week if not, every other.
I appreciate all the reads I've had!!
Enjoy, little spoons!!
