Promise

Chapter 6

A/N: okay so things get pretty sad and stuff in this. DRAAAMMMAAATTIIICCC

"Oh god Ashton this part is so scary." I bury my face into his chest to hide my face from the movie. All of us had been staying up late, watching horror movie after horror movie and getting closer and closer together as a group of friends.

"It's okay Sadie." He laughed.

I nodded slowly but not really trusting him.

--------------

"Now what." I yawned

"I'm going to head to the bathroom" Calum took off.

Why does he always need to pee whenever I'm with him.

I looked over at Luke, I haven't heard him talk a lot tonight.

"You still awake over there?" I asked.

Luke noticed I was talking to him, and his eyes focused on me. "Shut up."

Ashton moaned. "Luke you don't have to be a total jerk to Sadie. She hasn't done anything to you." I nodded.

"She's so fucking annoying though Ashton. Thinking she's all perfect." Luke shot back, not even minding I was standing right there.

I took a deep breath, my legs starting to shake. He can't see me upset.

"I'm just going to-" my voice cracked, and I ran out onto Ashton's porch, slamming the door behind me.

The air was thick. It should have been cold, but instead it was as warm as day. The moon shown in the sky, bright against the black backround, dotted with stars.

I sighed. Something was wrong with Luke. I didn't know what happened, but someone or something had messed him up. I should have felt anger. I should have felt hate. Instead, I felt sadness and compassion for a complete asshole.

A year ago I would have stayed in that room. I would have hurt him. Would have fired something equally as rude back. But things change, people change. And I hate myself for it.

It's one of those secrets you don't tell anyone. I'm a happy person okay, don't get me wrong. I get good grades, have nice friends, and have a nice amount of money. My dad had left me and my mom, yes, but I had gotten over it. I still remember what my mom had said that day.

"Just remember, never think that the reason why they left was that you wernt good enough for them. We didn't loose him Sadie, he lost us."

Those words had stuck. I had gotten better. He left damage, lots of damage. Then my mom had to break open the almost healed wound, and ruin our life again.

I don't even understand why she did it. Why she would hurt me. I was her daughter. When I was young, they always said "Your parents love you very much, and will do anything for you." They fucking lied! My dad left because he didn't care. He didn't love us. My mom abused me because she didn't love me! Love is so misunderstood. Love is stupid.

I sink to my knees, and cover my hand over my mouth before I let out a loud sob. Tears run down my face, making me almost choke. Why. Why me.

"S-Sadie?" What the hell.

I turn around, wanting to see kind Ashton, and for him to run to me, and embrace me in a hug, comforting me. But I already knew who that voice belonged to.

"What the fuck do you want." I hissed at the dark silluete of the figure. You could barley see his blond hair, then he stepped into the light. His eyes caught mine for a second but then I turned away instantly.

"A-are-"

"Am I okay! Fuck no! You thought I was so happy! So perfect! So.... I don't even know! Well guess what Luke. I'm not. Do you even know what? After I came out here I thought to myself, hey Sadie, something probably happened to Luke to make him a total ass." He gasped. "I actually thought we could be friends! I was going to forgive you!" I screamed at him anger blazing in my eyes.

"Sadie...." He started, but I didn't let him finish. I slapped him.
