Nightmare

Chapter 15

..Ruth's POV..

January 16....

Today's January 16, the day I lost my sister. The day I lost my best friend. As I'm walking to the graveyard, I already feel my eyes getting glossy. I sit down, and take out the dead flowers replacing them with new ones. Roses were always her favorite so those are the ones I have always brought her.

"Hey Amelia..." I say, "it's been now 4 years without you big sis.." I say. I couldn't hold it in anymore I let all the tears pour out. "I miss you so fucking much..it's hard without you" I say, as I sit there my phone starts ringing.

I take it out and see it's Blake, I can't answer it'll probably sound like I'm crying. I don't want to worry him. And I don't want to talk with anyone right now. Instead of answering his phone calls I just send him a message.

"I'm fine" I say and then shut my phone off. "I hope your okay up there...and finally at peace" I say while wiping my tears away. After a couple of hours, it starts getting cold so I decide to go back home. A couple minutes later I decide to stop, as I walk around in the city I see this book store.

I go in, and start looking around. Who knows how long I've been in here. It's now night time I check the time and it's 8pm. I pay the books and then make my way out the library.

As I sit on a park bench, I take out a book and start reading. The light of a lamp pole in the park helped me see the words correctly. About an 1hr or more I got tired. I packed all my stuff up and finally went back home.

As I'm about to walk through the door, someone grabs my hand from behind. I turn around about to punch them but then I see who it was. "Oh Heyy Carter" I say he looked mad but also worried. "Where have you been??" He asks me.

"I was out" I say "out? I called you so many times and texted you. I was worried I thought something bad happened to you Ruth." He says pulling me into a tight hug.

Like if he was gonna lose me, "I'm sorry.." I say "it's okay..just please next time answer my calls and say more than just 'I'm fine'." He says. "Okay" I say he hugs me tighter.

As we lay on my bed watching a movie, I ask him "how was your day?" He looks at me and says "bad" while pulling me close to him. "Why bad sweet cheeks?" I ask trying to hold in my laugh. I wanted to cheer up the mood so I was gonna mess with him.

He looked at me like if he was gonna laugh "because you weren't there pumpkin" he says I was so close to laughing so loud. "Aww my baby boy missed his mommy" I say as we both looked at each other then we bursted out laughing so hard.

"What the fuck!?" He says while laughing. "Pumpkin?baby boy?sweet cheeks? Oh fuck no" I say. After a couple minutes later we're all calmed down we lay back down.

"So why was your day actually bad Carter?" I ask him "because my favorite person wasn't there" he says "oh Rebecca wasn't there?" I say he glared at me "shut up. Your my favorite person. Plus I hate Rebecca" he says.

"I'm your favorite person?" I ask him "yes" he says I smile and kiss his cheek. "And your mine" I say he smiles and kisses my lips softly. "So why weren't you at school today?" He asks I felt my mood drop.

I guess he probably noticed so he said "I'm sorry, don't tell me it's okay I'm sorry for asking you" he says "no no it's okay" I say. It won't hurt to tell him, he is my boyfriend, "today was umm..four years without Amelia.." I say, he looked at me like if he felt sorry.

"I'm sorry love" he says pulling me close to him. "It's okay..I just wish she was still here.." I say. "Even though I don't know her, I wish she was here with you still." He says "yeah.." I say my voice cracking at the end.
