The music played softly as Declan drove me home. He decided to take the rest of the day off. He was upset when I told him I walked, but if I'm not allowed to drive, walking is my only option. I didn't feel like being cooped up in the house all day.
Besides, the walk was kind of relaxing, giving me a chance to breathe. It was nice to walk when the sidewalks were clear of people. I probably won't be walking again in the morning anytime soon though with school and all.
Chapter 14Ella's POV:It's been three days since I last attended school, three whole days. But today's Friday, the last day of the school week so I'm going. It's only one day I have t
Declan's POV:The whole car ride to school my little Ellie was staring out the window, she wasn't mentally present. Instead, she was completely immersed with whatever her little head was thinking about. Knowing she wasn't worried for once brought a smile to my lips.I could tell because her eyes
Chapter 15Declan's POV:Dark grey clouds take over the sky, heavy with soaked up water ready to be released. The outside air filters through the car's venting system, the temperature
I don't like McDonald's but I wanted to make her happy, so that's what we did.On the car ride there, Wes and I play eye spy with my little eye with her. When she got bored, she asked me to turn up the radio so she could sing, and of course, Wes just had to sing with her. It was fucking fantastic let me tell you, music to my ears.
Chapter 16Ellas POV:This weekend has been so boring, no exaggeration needed and that's very strange coming from me. Usually, the weekends are like my jam, but not this one. I enjoy b
We have been driving for a little over an hour, the low buzz of the radio is heard in the background along with the rumble of the engine. Most of the drive has had the same pine tree scenery. Not that I'm complaining, I love the woods. Well, when I don't have bad dreams about them."Why are you so quiet." Declan breaks the comfortable silence.
Chapter 17Ella's POV:Meeting Declan's sister has been the highlight of my week.
As we joke another series of knocks on my front door are heard from my room. Olivia looks at me and I just shrug getting up from the bed. We walk down my old creaky stairs and to my door to see who's here.Pulling open the door I look to see who it is. When I see just who's here, a smile simpers onto my pasty lips. The boy I've been worried about stands in front of me with his arms crossed, his soft lips were curved up, his cheekbones high.
**Her Rock Sequel**Agape: noun. 1. The highest form of love. Selfless, sacrificial, and unconditional love; persists no matter the circumstance.He was one boy, but he was her boy.
On the way to Declan's place, we make an unexpected stop at the grocery store. My eyes cast over to him in confusion."Ice cream baby, I want ice cream."I smile and shake my head before getting out of the car. We walk hand in hand into the grocery store. A smile curves onto my lips, this is whe
Ella's POV:After the game adrenaline coursed through me. My team was over the moon due to our first win. It was such a rush, but honestly, all I wanted was to cuddle into the cocoon of the person who gives me a high that's greater than this.Being
I do a lap around the track to get my muscles moving and after stretch my legs out doing some lunges, Frankenstein's, and opening and closing the gates.When I'm done stretching I take out my soccer ball and begin to do toe taps, cuts, pullbacks, roll sides, etc. Doing this before a game I find helps during the game. My moves tend to be more precise and accurate.
Chapter 38Ella's POV:Today was the day. My first game back. And to sum it up I was a panicky agitated mess all day. I knew it, Olivia knew it, Thomas knew it, my mom knew it, Wes kne
I just wanted the day to end but I swear it dragged on as slowly as possible. Plus my teachers could be so irritating. I was already sent to the office once for 'not cooperating'. Apparently winning a sarcasm war against my teacher was considered not cooperating.Wes and I were talking and the mother fucker decided to callonlyme out on it.
Chapter 37Declan's POV:One year later.
Ella's POV:I feel heavy like I'm being held down by a thousand-pound weight. Nothing's right, everything feels so wrong. We barely had any time, we're supposed to have more time.Seeing Declan like that has hit me hard, knocking all the wind out of me. Now I'm falling like an avalanche.
Chapter 36Wes's POV:Holding up the signal felt like a victory. The fire alarm wasn't planned but it sure did help.
