Why Did You Leave Me? Chapter 7

-Thank you to all the people who commented before!
Especially BAILEY, who commented on all the chapters so far! THANKS-

I stayed up all night crying.

In the morning, my eyes were red and bloodshot. Today was Friday, but I decided to skip school. If I saw Benny, I would break down again, I knew it.

I got up and out of my bed. My body ached all over but my heartache was the worst. I took a shower to relax me but it didn’t help at all.

When I looked in the mirror it looked like I was a zombie or something, but I didn’t care at this point.

I couldn’t stay in the house anymore, so I walked to beach. I crossed the street without looking.

I thought I was fine, until I heard a loud beep from the side. By the time I realized a car was coming right at me, it was too late.

‘I’m gonna die…’ That was the last thing I thought before everything went dark.

-BENNY'S POV-

I felt horrible about the things that I said last night to April. I didn't mean them at all. I still loved April with all my heart. I couldn't live without her. She was my best friend and my lover since we were 4, but I know now that she will never be able to let go Ryan.

That's why I'm going to let her go...If I can only have her in my life as a friend, then fine. Even though, I will always love her more than a friend, I had to let her go. It was for the best.

'Just let her go, Benny...she's not the one for you' I thought and sighed as the aching feeling in my chest returned.

I was scrolling down my contact list on my phone, looking for April's number. I was going to call her, and apologize a million times, but my phone started to ring. I didn't recognize the number, but I answered anyway.

"Hello, who's this?"

"B-benny, y-y,our f-father!" It was my mom and I could hear her crying.

"WHAT, MOM? WHAT'S WRONG?!" Uh-oh. I didn't need another problem right now, on top of the whole thing that happened yesterday with April.

"He's dead!!"

I dropped my phone. I couldn't believe this. My heart was pounding in my ear and everything became blurry. Another burden was added onto my shoulder.

God must really hate me...
