The New Beginning / Brennen Taylor

Chapter 25

" Happy Thanksgiving guys!" My step father says to us at the dinner table.

" Thank you babe for this lovely meal." He says to my mom.

" Yeah thank you mom." My brother said.

Me and Brennen haven't talked for 2 days he's tried to call and he has texted me a lot, but I don't want to talk to him. My mom has noticed I haven't done anything but sit in my room all day and I didn't tell her me and Brennen broke up, but she knows something is up.

My brother kicks me under the table and I lose my train of thought.

" yeah thank you mom." I say trying to smile.

Everyone starts to eat they all are talking about who knows what, and I am just thinking about Brennen. I just hate how things left off, but I don't want to face him and talk to him.

" Alex you have an appointment tomorrow with Dr. Lee." I'm going back to therapy?

" I thought we would talk about me not going back to therapy."

" Honey it's time for you to go back, there is know need to talk about it." She says calmly.

" Can I be excused please." I say trying not to break out in tears.

" Alex you didn't even eat anything." My mom says.

" I'm not hungry."

" Fine you may leave."

" Thank you." I say getting up and putting my plate in the sink.

I went out side sitting on my front porch looking at the stars. They are so bright and they look beautiful tonight.

" You looking at the stars too." A familiar voice says coming towards me.

" Brennen what do you want."

" What are you thinking about?" He Ignores my question.

I sigh.

" Honestly I'm thinking about you."

" I've been thinking about you too."

" Oh yeah, about what?" I question.

" How I messed up big time." I laugh.

" You did." I say.

" Alex I'm sorry."

" Its just that every time I get close to someone they always find away to leave me, and I don't get it because I try so hard and all I get is nothing. So what's the point of even trying anymore when there is nothing to try for?"

" Alex." He says.

" And maybe I'm just being selfish, but I don't want to lose you, because once in my life I am happy I'm happy when I'm with you. you seem to say all the right things and Brennen I just don't want you to go, I love you." I cry as he holds me.

" I love you so much baby and I promise you won't lose me."
