~Aniket's POV~ I can't help but smile at my little sister, I hope she isn't mad at me after I tell her my news. "Look sis, this is the only picture I had of you and I want to remember you when you are happy". She looks at me with confusion and I realise how hard this is going to be. "I'm leaving next week for Chicago, Illinois. I'm going to college there, and I just want you to be happy for me." I frown seeing her face drop and I pull her into a hug reassuring her I will always be here when she needs me. I leave her alone and go back upstairs knowing that's what she wants. ~Charity's POV~ I can't help but be shocked. He had to go behind my back looking for places. I was completely oblivious to him leaving for college and to be so far and so soon? I notice myself tear up as he pulls me into a hug and I push him away. "Just leave me alone. I don't want to talk about this right now". Just then I look over to see the caller ID light up on my cell phone. -Call From Jon-. I ignore the call and push my phone to the side. (Thoughts) Like my day couldn't get any worse.. And then my ex calls. What could he want? He just left me a month ago. Surely he knows I don't give out second chances and I will not listen to his pathetic excuses as to why he left. I know the real reason, he left me for someone else so he better make it worth it. (end of thoughts) My phone keeps lighting up with him calling me. I figure it couldn't be so bad if anything I'd just hang up. So I answered, and all i hear is yelling in the background and the sound of a guy crying.. Of Jon crying for help. -------------------- Why is he crying? Who could be yelling? What's going on?
~Charity's Flashback~ I'm sitting in Math class doodling on my notes already knowing the material. Math is my thing so it isn't too hard to catch onto for me. I look up to see Jon watching me, I stir uncomfortably in my seat. (thoughts) He can't be staring at me. He is so much better then me, I am so not his type.. (end of thoughts) I catch myself staring back and look away quickly just before the bell rings. As all of us students rush out of the boring class I am stopped by a stong, deep, sexy voice, I turn to see Jon talking to me. Jon: "Hey Charity, the guys are all getting together tonight and unlike them I don't have a date. Would you mind accomponing me?" Me: "Yea sure it sounds fun. I mean, what are you all doing? Just hanging out or what?" Jon: "Yea you could say that. Sorry I have been wanting to ask you to hang out for awhile but I couldn't pick up the courage. Can I pick you up around 8?" Me: "Sounds good. Can't wait. I'm glad you asked." We walked off and finished the rest of the school day. At 7:30 I got a phone call from Jon. Jon: "Hey Charity, I'm so sorry but my parents are fighting. I can't go out tonight. I promise to make it up to you." That was it he hung up. I hear a loud crash and then the phone cuts off.. I knew Jon had it a little rough at home. I could tell by how he acted out at school, but I never knew how rough it was.. Till now ---------------- Mini update. To help you get your imagination really going. I'll update again tomorrow about why Jon is crying for help. Till then let your imagination run wild
