Kade's povMrs. Cross nods. " I can hear it in your voice and see it in your eyes. You remind me of Haiden when he was your age. Annoying that he was, he was special in his own way, just like you are special in your own way to Kade. And I hope you know that." I could hear it in her voice, she was hinting at something but didn't know how to just come out and say it. But then her next words completely take me off guard. "I heard when you called out your mother's name while you were thrashing in your sleep." She admitted. I drop my gaze in embarrassment. It had been a while since I had a nightmare about my life with my mother. I wasn't sure if I had ever called out her name before. Not that there were anyone around to tell me. "In the letter, Gwen mentioned about using drugs and...." She trailed not sure if to perhaps use the word prostitution. Sighing heavily she continues. " That must not have been the best life to grow up in. Did she do anything to you or force you to do anything
♡ Mia's pov ♡"Good morning mom," I said, my voice cracking through the air and reaching her ears.I yawned. I felt extremely tired for some odd reason even though I knew I had a good sleep.Mom turns around, fork in her hand and with eyes wide, almost as if she was somehow startled to hear my voice so early."Oh you're awake! How was your night? Heard a movie playing when your dad and I passed by your door." She smiles. "Anything good on the screen?"Mom usually asked about the movies I watch. It was her way of bonding and trying to know my interests. So it wasn't weird that she asked. It was just a little strange that her voice had a chirp of knowing. One that kind of made me look at her in suspicion.Walking further into the kitchen, I leaned against the counter as I replied to her. "Yeah, Jurassic World was really good."Well, it was the first thirty minutes or so, I somehow had dozed off halfway through. I didn't even know when Kade got up to leave to his room.I was bummed out t
♡ Mia's pov ♡Have you ever wished that the moment you're in right at this very second was just a terrible, annoying, but terrible, embarrassing dream?Just a dream.But of course, reality kicks you in the balls, only that I had no balls because well I was a girl and a girl has a vagina, boobs okay I'm going off topic.But what I'm trying to say is that I wished this was all a dream. One I'll wake up from and be very happy that it was in fact a dream and not reality.But sometimes wishes don't come true.And now, as I pray silently, pinching myself harshly and looking at mom like she was some sort of alien spirit who had taken over my mother's body, I only wished that this wish for this to be a dream was actually true.And dammit. It wasn't."Well, the space looks good enough. Unless the guy has a huge load." Mom snorts as she pulls the tip of the condom a little more to give more 'space.'I cringe unable to hide that one from my face. I twisted my skin again, hoping I'd 'wake up', on
♡ Mia's pov ♡"Are you okay?" I asked Kade, chewing my bottom lip as I spared him a glance.From the moment dad cut the cucumber in half he had been like this, mute and practically a ghost judging by his pale complexion.It was rather unsettling to see him like this because usually, he would be throwing me cheeky glances. But his gaze had been set at the front the entire time we had been in the car and he definitely looked lost in his own head.And it was even more strange that he hadn't tried to tease me when he usually did when Colby wasn't here. And Colby wasn't because he caught a ride with Stanly today.So it was just us two, in complete awkward silence.I didn't like this silence.He hadn't spared me a single glance.Even his reply was abrupt and dull. It was like he wasn't even here. "Yeah."I pinch my brows together and looked ahead before I crash the car. We were heading to school and we were a tad bit later than usual but not entirely late for school.We still had about ten
♡ Mia's pov ♡"So I'm thinking about dying my hair in green just to match with the school's uniform. Think Stanly would love it?" Colby asked.I nodded even though I wasn't really paying attention to his words. Honestly, the only thing that registered in my head were the words love and it.Apart from that, I didn't hear anything."So Gracie shart on the front lawn of the school and Phillip stepped on it. Do you think the school board will press charges? I mean you gotta go when you gotta go, you know what I mean?" He asked which I nodded to, still not really paying attention."Your skirt has a huge hole at the back and I can see your granny panties. Think the guys will bend you over and spank the shit outta your ass?" He questioned. I nodded."Are you even listening to me?" Colby huffed out with a breath of irritation.I nodded again, putting another book into the locker. I wasn't even sure it was the right book. I was just aimlessly putting in books and hadn't bothered to check which
♡ Mia's pov ♡Colby's eyes are wide. Practically like globes honestly. And they were filled with disbelief, shock, terror and confusion."You're joking? Is it April fools or some shit? Because Mia girl, you can't blow up my mind like that, it's way too early for this shit." Colby lets out in one breath.I wiped my mouth with the back of my hand, sighing as I rose to my feet. "Unfortunately no, it's not April fools. Nor are we even in the month of April. I'm not kidding Colb, I've been feeling sick for a few days now."I flushed the toilet while my best friend looked at me like I was some kind of ghost.Was I pale?I opened my mouth to ask him but he beats me to it. "Does he know?"His question completely took me off guard even though I should have expected it.I looked away from him guiltily and sidestep him to walk to the sink. I hear his exaggerated breath behind me and cringed knowing he was about to throw a fit."Oh my God Mia! You didn't tell him?! Are you crazy? He deserves to k
♡ Mia's pov ♡Plop.My eyes widen.Oh no."Mia. What was the sound of that? Did you take a dump or?" Colby's voice cracks through the door.I winced, turning around slightly to stare at the toilet bowl. Floating and looking ready to drown in the water was one of the pregnancy tests.I managed to have caused it to slip from my fingers when trying to pull up my jeans. It was a bad idea to have been so close to the toilet in the first place.Now I was paying the price.With my jeans almost at my hips, thankfully I still had one test alive and in my grasp as I use the other hand to pull it up my jeans while backing away from the toilet."Don't get mad. But one of the tests is currently having the time of its life in the toilet bowl." I winced while speaking."You dropped them in the toilet!" Colby blasted in disbelief.I cringe. "I said one Colby. The other is safe....kinda." I pinched the test not wanting my fingers to touch where my pee had touched."Girl you better not drop the other.
♡ Mia's pov ♡"You didn't go to kill the baby did you?"I felt like I was zapped somewhere else, another reality, where no one spoke, not a single sound was heard, except for Brianna's voice.I looked around the room lost with my ears ringing.I must've heard wrong.Why else would everyone be so frozen?Why we're there no reactions or changes of expressions?Why was Kade so-I stop when my eyes fell into a blue storm. He was also frozen where he stood, his hand still plastered to the table, his gaze still on me, his face so...stiff.His eyes, on the other hand, they told something, they wanted to express something. But all I seem to get out of them was the look of confusion."Did you?"Her voice, was so acidic with false worry. So nasty.They pulled me out of that reality where I only saw frozen faces and threw me in another where the faces expressed different emotions.Confusion. Shock. Interest. Intrigue. And expectation. They were expecting my response.My heavy tongue gave me reli
