Chapter Thirty-Eight.
Alaynah's POV:
I feel like i'm in a cinema, watching my whole life's memories. I see my house burning to ashes, I hear the policeman saying that my father and sister are dead. I see the pills, then I see the cords attached to me.
I see myself getting beaten, I see myself being bullied and I remember every single thing the foster homes have done to me.
I then see Tyler. The first day we met. He gave me a lift to school and we danced in his car. I see every kiss, every argument, every date.
Then I see myself walking away from him that day when he had an argument with his hollogrammed father.
I then see him start after me a little after I walk away. He did come to find me, he did.
Then everything goes black.
A white light stands before me and I get curious, I start to move toward it until I hear something. A voice I know too well.
Tyler.
Tyler's POV:
"I'm so sorry it had to be this way love. I'm so sorry I had a fight with my father, if he never showed up this never would have happened. You're different yanno Alaynah. You've been there when no one else was and you have made me happy.. You do make me happy. You're so cheery although your past and you see me for who I really am. You're eyes dance and they twinkle. I just want to see them again. I'm not ready to let you go, not yet, not ever. Wanna know why?" I pause for a breif moment as I let a tear slip.
Alaynah's POV:
I fall to my knees and push the palms of my hands into my legs.
Tears stream down my face but still, it makes me smile.
"Why? Why Tyler? I wanna know why." I say although he can not hear me.
"Because i'm in love with you." Those words.. His voice.
My eyes spring open to the sight of him. My lungs scream for air and my hands squeeze the red sheets.
"I'm in love with you too."
