Sophie

The days snuck up on us like a ghost in the night, and they were full of pain, tears, and many- MANY obstacles.

I worked overtime to finish all my missed assignments and turned them in before Christmas break came during the nights. But the days were torture for us. We worried if mom would collapse again while dad had to be away in the vineyard, and us attending school.

There were times when I’d run home and find her crouched down in pain, holding her left breast, which was where the lumps of cancer had been detected. I felt so stupid, not knowing what to do. I’d go in panic mode, and cry along with her. It’s as if cancer had waited for the news to get out to hit her harder.

Dad hit me with the news that he had turned in my packet for the trip to Barcelona, but I refuse to go. How could I go under these circumstances? He had to be out of his mind! I refuse, and I repeat, I refuse to go on that trip this year.

I want to stay

    Sophie Mom and I woke up super early and sat to have a conversation. To say that it was a pleasant conversation would be a lie. It was the complete opposite. "Sit down, sweetheart. I need to talk to you about what is going to happen next. And I need you to be brave for me. I need you, Sophie, I need you here with me." Mom was making me really nervous. I sat next to her, allowing her to take my hands in hers. "Mom. what is going on? Why don't you have breakfast first? we can talk about this right after." She nods in disagreement with her eyes closed. She takes a long sigh, looking away from me towards the ground. "Sophie, as soon as we go into the hospital, the doctor will

I had no time to grab anything for myself other than what I was wearing. After, we grabbed a taxi to the hotel where Mrs.P and Sophie were staying.We almost had the same inconvenience, but the reception lady realized there was a cancelation on a large party that had four bedrooms. We grabbed two rooms before they could be taken from someone else.After we left the luggage in the rooms, we grabbed a different cab and went on our way to the hospital.

Please, give me another chance. I was, I was an idiot. I should have believed you. I know now that you didn't cheat on me. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry babe."I closed my eyes and pondered on his words. I folded my hands over my chest, turning my body away from him."Sophie, say something. Please? Tell me you're willing to give me a second chance. Please? I-I know I was a moron, I should have never doubted you. I know you kept Troy and Dylan's secret to protect them, I know that now. Soph." His hands softly embraced me around my waist. His hard chest leaned against my back."So, you only believed me, because you found out the truth about Troy and Dylan? What about when I asked you to believe me? What about every time I told you I didn't cheat on you? What about each

    LoganThe days after Mrs. Patterson's surgery were hard for everyone. I talked to mom daily, making sure she kept me updated on the situation.Apparently, dad was not going to back down on his lawsuit against mom. The only way that he would undo the whole case was if mom agreed to go back with him, which I don't blame mom for telling him off.Derreck's office was not so far from the hospital, so I met up with him every chance I got to talk to him. It looks like mom may be able to win the case since dad had neglected to pay child support for us, and has not seen Ashley for over a year. She also had the upper hand since Steven and I had already witnessed them being lovey-dovey during the summer cruise.He has no idea I have videos of him being a little too friendly with her. But that is a surprise I'm willing to wait until it's time for the court date.Sophie has had it really hard. Her mom is agonizing because of all the radiation

    SophieAfter we played around throwing snowballs at each other, Logan took us to a late-night ice skating. Though we only skated for a little since it was so late and they were already closing down.Then we took the boys to get a hot chocolate, listened to carolers, and ended back at the hotel with two boys who passed out the second we got there."Thank you for tonight, Logan. My brothers needed a distraction from all this." I sat next to him on the couch inside our room.Somehow Logan said the hotel was very sorry for messing up his room and offered him the presidential suit. They checked him out of his room earlier than the day he had paid for his stay and since they rented the room out to someone else, they gave him the biggest room in the hotel. This place had a total of five rooms, and since they were pretty much empty during the day, my brothers sometimes stayed home and caused chaos in each one, giving the cleaning ladies much to do.

    Logan I woke up to the sound of my phone. I was still pretty tired. Last night was unforgettable. A night I hope and wish to repeat over and over again for the rest of my life, if possible. Sophie still doesn't know about my status. She doesn't know I have more than enough money to afford this room for a year if I wanted. But I know I have to tell her soon. If there is one thing I've learned- is to never hide something from her. She deserves all my trust; Just like I know she has always trusted me. I slowly open my eyes, the ring of my phone keeps going off. Sophie is still sound asleep in my arms, her hair covering her face makes me smile. I slowly move my arm from under her and I turn to grab my phone out of my sweatpants pocket. "Shit," I utter out as I see the phone number on the ID. "Hey! Where are you?" I whisper as I quickly

Our schools trip to Barcelona for the first time in years includes most football players. We were in the middle of championships for the state, thinking we would win, but I'm afraid we lost big time. I kid you not- this is the second time our school actually gets to go to state play-offs this far during my four years in college. Last year we went all the way past the second game, but our team lost big time to a school in the northern part of Tennessee. We were on our fourth game going strong towards the middle of January when I sprained my ankle mid-game. From there, it went downhill. We lost the game, and then more. So now that the year is officially over for us- for now! Coach announced the school to move forward with the tri

But terrible news pulled me back to that old town.A few months after Logan had found me in Los Angeles, four years ago, I received a phone call from dad. Mom had gotten sick again. But this time, they didn't catch it in time. She hid it from everyone, including dad. No one, not even I was ready for what was to come.Mom died just a year after I went to see her. She was so happy to finally spend more than a few days' worth of time with Nathan. All we did was talk about him when we are on the phone. She simply adores him.

    Three Years Later:SophieI walked towards the cafe I work for a few hours after class. I was too tired to work today. It's getting harder every day to even get out of bed.I have no energy. My days are crazy. I can't sleep at night, yet I want nothing to do but sleep during the day. My budget scares me. I don't even know how I am doing this? Dad keeps sending me money, though I refuse to touch it unless I have no other option.I dropped most of my classes for now. I can't focus- it's as if my mind gets clouded. I feel like a damn airhead. I had to go see a doctor, and she gave me so many vitamins because she says I am underweight and need to nourish my body. The vitamins taste so gross. I especially hate the iron pills.But if I don't take them, I will never get rid of my anemia. It will be bad for me if that happens."Hey, darling. You look so gorgeous today.

Logan sat to my right, holding my hand with our fingers interlaced. I could tell he was nervous. Our valedictorians this year are Russell Knight and Emily Mitchell. They tied perfectly for the grand title.Graduation came by too fast if you ask me. Before we knew it, we were hit with finals and SAT's, final projects, and more.We ran around getting caps, gowns, graduation outfits. Logan and the rest of the gang, as well as me, volunteered for the prom decoration group, it turned out beautifully. I won't go insomuch detail, just know Logan was amazing. We had matching colors on my dress and his tie. After, we went to the cabin and spent all weekend there.

I miss Ashley so much, and I know she must be missing her mom and Logan. They deserve to be together. I just hope that Mr. Spencer can see that in time.He picked me up from home and gave me a ride to school before leaving. I gave him a quick kiss and got off the car. I waved at him as he sped off to Mr. Mitchell's office. He had called him this morning to tell him he had big news for him. I hoped it was good news, Logan could really use a turn to all of the bad things that have been happening lately.I decided to send him a quick message before entering my second class and told him that everything was going to be ok.Sophie- Hi Baby. Good morning. I just wanted you to know I love you. Things are going to be ok, you'll see. I'll see you after school, ok?

    Logan "I know mom, I was going to go back to school. That was my plan. But, then uncle Danny stopped me at the lobby. He told me to wait for him so I could take Ashley with me to get some ice cream. Which is why she is now covered in chocolate. You know she can't eat chocolate ice cream without getting it all over herself!" Ashley socked me on my arm as I made fun of her. She had a huge chocolate ice cream stain on the top of her dress. I tried to avoid the menacing look on mom's face as she stood before me with her arms crossed next to uncle Danny and Derreck. Ashley and I were in the middle of our second scoop when mom walked in looking for us. She looks over towards uncle Danny, I don't her arms, and places one hand over her hip. "Uh, in my defense, it was better for Logan to keep her company than for her to be out in the lobby all alone. Wouldn't you agree?... Derreck?" He looks at mom first and then towards Derreck for reinforce

I asked him making him turn with a smile towards me.His hand softly grasping mine with a gentle squeeze."We were, but Ruth told me you were having a little issue with Charley-boy, so Layla and I came by to see what was going on. Luckily, I reached out and did my research on what's going on." He responded turning with a mischievous smile towards Charles whose face was red as a tomato."Daniel, no offense but your presence is unnecessary to this hearing. This is a matter between Riley and me.""Oh, on the contrary." He cut Charles off, opened his suitcase, and brought out a stack of papers, and slammed them in front of Charles."You forget about this Charley-boy? Ashley, baby, Logan is waiting outside. Why don't go out and get some ice cream with him, ok honey?" He says pulling out his wallet and giving Ashley a hundred-dollar bill

    RileyI stood outside of the courtroom with my hands shaking, tapping my phone over the other hand.I was a nervous wreck, to say the least.One thing I was glad of, was that Charles had asked for a private hearing. We would stand before a judge inside a private room rather than a big courtroom full of strangers and try to come to an understanding from both parties."Ms. Riley Spencer? We are ready for you." The young lawyer called out from the door. I looked at Derreck with fright written all over me. My heart pounded in my ear from the nerves I felt inside.Soon as I went inside, my heart shrieked with enthusiasm as I saw my baby girl sitting next to her dad."Mom!" She yelled out, standing up and running to my side."Ashley. Oh, baby, I missed you so much, princess." I hugged her tightly, embracing the feel of her arms around my waist as I stroke her hair delicately and kissed her head continuously."
