CHAPTER 16

15 minutes went by.

Then 40 minutes.

Then an hour.

I stared at the horizon, still in shock.

"Christina?"

Then I felt it.

The heartbreaking pain that filled my chest and caused me to crumble to the ground, choking out sobs.

"Christina!"

I couldn't see a thing, blackness took over my vision- yet I was still conscious.

"Get Cole!" Someone ordered- Tucker, I think.

I remained lying there, sobbing my eyes out, the pain in my chest growing and growing. I felt as if I was dying, the pain was that bad.

I heard a series of footsteps.

"Oh my god. Christina!" Mandy exclaimed.

My mom chose to leave me.

She didn't want me. Hell- I doubted that she even loved me in the first place.

"Good morning baby."

I screamed, jolting backwards off the bed with a load thud. Laughter filled my ears as my face turned a deep red.

The laughter continued for a good ten minutes straight, then finally died down.

"Y-You s-should h-h-have seen your f-f-face!" Cole spluttered out, still amused.

I opened my mouth, surprised.
