Setting my helmet down on my seat, I sprint over to the porch and reach for her ar "It wasn’t what it looked like Let reen eyes meet my amber ones and I feelleft in her look but hatred and pain, and it hurts evenwhere it ca it for the last six years

"It doesn’t matter, Hemy," she mutters "You don’t think I know you didn’t sleep with that tramp? I know it but the question is howoff on you while you were drunk, high, and passed out? How do you expectyouyour hair; being places mine should be I can’t do it any myself mentally over you I just can’t"

I s and placecloser to her I see her eyes dart down to my lips before she pulls her face away and takes a step back "Don’t," she whispers "Just Don’t Please, letable to touch my woman is the worst pain ever, but I don’t bla to get by the only way I knohich is to forget sometimes"

"Well, I can’t take it any I had, and now there is nothing left to give Every day that I’m with you I die a little more inside; lose a little more hope I understand that you had a messed up childhood I understand that your shitty parents left you You were a young child, alone, and scared out in the world; I get that, and I can’t tell you that your sister is still out there, or that she is even still alive I can’t take that all back, but what I can do is show you that love exists, that I’m always here for you I have tried I really have, but I can only take sobehind your behavior, but at the end of the dayI should be your only" Her voice is broken and it killsfurther away froe to run h her strawberry curls and hold her close, but I don’t I can’t I don’t deserve to "You’re a lost cause, Hee You can’t and won’t I’hteen, dammitand you’re only nineteen This is all toofor this shit Can’t you see that?"

"I can change I just need tih to move on just yet Do you kno hard it is to wake up everywith these"The places I have been The people I have seen The things I sawwound on my brain Now I don’t even knohere the hell she is! She was only nine at the ti my best here, okay?"

"I’m sorry," she whispers "I tried to help you I tried, but I can’t continue to immerse myself into this filth and heartache You may not have touched her this tio to in order to get your way of forgetting, huh? I have to get out of here before I lose myself" Her eyes meet mine and her bottom lip quivers "I’ve already lost you, because you were never fully there to begin with I have known you for six years; for six years, Heotten worse Don’t turn into your parents Don’t let theer able to look at the disappointive me one more chance? I pros you’ve seen in the past were beyond h out of my mind, but I have never taken another woman to bed"

"From what you know of, Hemy," she bites out in a clipped tone "We don’t know that for sure and I’o You’ve hurt me too many times and I feel as if I can’t breathe anymore It Hurts So Much"

She turns around and heads for the door, but then stops "I just have one question Have you ever loved er in the air as I try to force myself to speak I want to say yes, but the truth is, I’m not sure I knohat love truly is "Onyx, I-"

"Don’t say that," I whisper "I can’t fucking lose you too"

"It’s too late You already have" She bends down and reaches for one of her bags, and that’s when I notice her brother outside tossing her bags into his trunk "My faoing You won’t be able to change their minds, so don’t try Goodbye, Hehs sardonically "Have a nice life"

I fall against the back hile letting her harsh words sink in My hands reach up to cover my face and my heart feels as if it’s been ripped froer I stand here without her theWhat the hell a?

"No, wait!" I run to the door and open it, but I’one I quickly search for my phone, but of course I aht
