Gwen's pov!
I was in the car with my mother on the way from Church and I continued to stare out the window at the 꽃 passing by. "I'll be back soon from the grocery store,Gwen. don't get your dress dirty."My mother warned me with a glare that meant she wasn't playing. "Okay, mommy."I opened the door and hopped down onto the patches of fresh 잔디 with sand like colored dirt below my small sparkly blue shoes. I skipped over towards the tall oak 나무, 트리 that held a 그네, 스윙 on one of it's thick 나무, 트리 trunks and sat upon it,grabbing onto the two ropes and began to kick my feet back and forth giggling as the wind gently kissed my face. I loved to come here everyday and 그네, 스윙 for awhile seeing that every time I would 그네, 스윙 so high I could see a bright red painted 외양간, 헛간 over the tall 옥수수 stalks. I would also sometimes bring my journal along and draw whatever came in sight to me that looked beautiful. I wasn't all that great a drawer because I'm 6 after all, but my mommy says I'll become a professional artist one day. "Get out of my way."The grouchy bully that lives near the oak 나무, 트리 pushed me out of the 그네, 스윙 and I landed harshly into a puddle of mud. I gasped as I looked at my Church dress that was now covered in mud and I balled my fists over my eyes,starting to cry. "You big meanie, why did 당신 push her..?"Another voice came running up towards the person on the swingset. "It's because I can. do 당신 have a problem with that..?"He got off the 그네, 스윙 and stood in front of the small boy who didn't look like he was afraid of him at all. "That isn't how 당신 treat a lady."His eyebrows seemed to dart down slightly and the taller person pushed him onto the ground. "You're such a nerd and a mama's boy, Trent."The person flicked his head and laughed hysterically before climbing onto his bike and driving off to his 프렌즈 down the dirt hill. "Are 당신 alright..?"The bare footed kid walked over to me and grabbed onto my hand to pull me out of the mud. "My dress is ruined.."My eyes began to whelm with tears again. "Don't cry, I'll fix it."He soothed and ripped a piece of his 셔츠 off and wiped off the mud. "Thank you."I giggled and my cheeks got very warm. He gently took my hand in his and placed me back onto the swing,pushing me softly back and forth. "Push me higher Trent."I giggled as I kicked my feet and he started to push me higher. "Wanna play hop scotch..?"He stopped the movement of the 그네, 스윙 to look at me with his cute grin. "What's that..?"I questioned before he held out his hand to help me down safely from the slightly high above ground 그네, 스윙 and thanking him afterwards. "You've never played that before..? I'll teach you."He grabbed one of the fallen twigs that surrounded the 그네, 스윙 and drew squares in the dirt. I brushed the hair from out of my eyes to look at the drawings he had made of confusion until he skipped across all of them. "Your turn."He gestured his hand at the squares still smiling. I copied what he had done and I ended up slamming into him and we both fell onto the grassy plain, starting to laugh. The lowering sunlight continued to sparkle through the many leaves upon the oak 나무, 트리 and glistened on the waving tall grass. "Where are 당신 from..? I never seen 당신 around here."I sat up and brushed the leaves off my dress. "I live over those tall 옥수수 stalks over there in the red barn."He smiled and helped me up from the ground. "Really..? I 사랑 the view of your home, it's so pretty."I laced my fingers together and giggled like the little child I am. "Maybe I could show you. follow me, um..."He trailed off kicking his feet in the dirt mumbling something under his breath. "I'm Gwen Stevens."I answered and he took my hand in his and pecked it softly with his warm lips. "Pleasure to meet you, Gwen. my name is Trent Jess."He bowed his head slightly and looked back up at me with a smile that seemed to never leave his face. Not letting go of my hand, he started to run off into the 옥수수 stalks, pushing them out of the way so I could get through safely and were soon facing the tall barn. He opened the screen door that made a loud creek as it was being opened and hit up against the bright red wood with a quiet thump. I walked into the 외양간, 헛간 and there were 동물 either sitting down and staring at me 또는 flying around and tweeting a melody. "You really 사랑 동물 I see.."I giggled as a little 강아지 snuggled up at my side and I brushed it's head with my hand followed 의해 it's tongue slobbering on my hand. "That's Pete. and yes, myself and my family 사랑 animals."Trent handed Pete a bone to chew on. "Trent, is that you- who's your friend..?"A woman with her hair up in a rubber band and dress made of rags came in with another 강아지 who ran over and tackled Pete playfully. "Good morning mother. this is Gwen Stevens."he introduced me and his mother's smile faded a little when she saw the stains on my dress. "Would 당신 like me to clean that for 당신 dear..?"She smiled once more. "If 당신 don't mind.. but I don't have any clothing to change in to."I blushed and tried to hide it into the locks of my 물오리, 청록 colored hair. "You may have one of Julie's dresses when she was young and she is in college so she wouldn't mind."She took out a black dress from in a closet and handed in to me to go change in the bathroom and give her my muddy dress. "Want an apple..?"Trent bit into a green 사과, 애플 and grabbed another one out of a pail of water. We both went out to the back porch of his house to have a snack and I stared longingly at the small river they had back here. "Your 집 is amazing."I continued to admire the water flowing 의해 and the vegetable gardens in neat rows of three beside 체리 blossom trees. "Thanks Gwen."Trent threw the 사과, 애플 core onto the fresh 잔디 and a bird picked it up with it's beak and flying back to it's young ones in it's nest to feed them. I scooted in beside him and leaned my head on his shoulder and listening to the birds sing causing my eyelids to flutter like 불, 화재 being put out. A loud gun shot was heard and the birds quickly flew off in fright screeching as they did. Trent stood up and looked around the corner of the barn, his eyes widening for what seems like fear and he started to cower back towards the back door. "What is it-."He cut me off and grabbed me 의해 the wrist taking me back inside the 외양간, 헛간 and hiding under the table. "Where is your children..?"A man's voice cut through my ears like a 칼, 나이프 being sliced across skin. "I.. I don't know, I swear."It sounded like Trent's mother sobbing and then another gun shot went off silencing her crying. I could see that Trent's eyes were being filled with tears and he closed them placing his dirt coated hand over his eyes. "Sweet little kiddies, come out where ever 당신 are."The man stomped into the room with his black as a burned out candle wick boots and threw stuff around to look for us. Trent soon stopped tearing and looked at me with an expression in his eyes that read terrified and upset. "Search this entire place until 당신 find her children. if 당신 don't we'll just burn this piece of shit 집 to the ground."The man ordered to three other tall men in the room who had weapons on a 벨트 around their waists. From outside I could hear people screaming and 총 going off like crazy, glass shattering, and even 더 많이 heavier weapons that made a loud sound and it was probably those tanks that are used in the military. "There 당신 are."One of the men grabbed me 의해 the arm and yanked me out from under the table. I screamed in fright but Trent pulled me away from the blood shot eyed man and held me behind him in protection. "So 당신 want to be the first to go, eh..? whatever."The guy grabbed Trent 의해 the 칼라 of his 셔츠 and pulled a 칼, 나이프 out from the 벨트 holding it closely to his neck. I was going to fight back at the guy but someone grabbed me 의해 the hair and I was now facing a man with only one eye and teeth pointy like a shark. "Hello sweetheart."The man chuckled and threw me into a sack on the side of the horse he was riding and the horse ran out of the house and back up the dirt road. I peeked out of the little opening and saw many of men dressed in the same uniform killing people with knives and guns. Trent ran out of the front of the 외양간, 헛간 and tripped onto the bloody 잔디 and a few of the same dressed men went over to him and started to beat him with the ends of the 총 they had. I watched as he screamed in pain as they continued to beat him and I cried out his name causing the man with the one eye to pound his fist upon the sack to quiet me. I glanced out one last time at the beautiful red 외양간, 헛간 that was now burst into flames and it began to collapse. I fell back into the sack and curled up in a ball in fear and listened to the horse's hooves clack stomp onto the dirt road.
I wanted 당신 to know that I 사랑 the way 당신 laugh
I wanna hold 당신 high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph and I know it serves me well
I wanna hold 당신 high and steal your pain
Because I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
I opened my eyes to find myself snuggled up under a not so thick cover on the bottom of a bunk 침대 in a room full of three other bunk beds with teens who had wished they were loved 의해 their past parents. I sat up and stretched my sore arms from working for the neighbors the other 일 and got out my mirror to fix my hair. I lied back down and something crumpled under my 베개 and I reached under and pulled out a wrinkly photograph of a boy who was leaning up against the bright red wood of a barn. Tears whelmed up in my eyes and I stuffed the picture into my sketchbook and stared up at the rough wood that held the 침대 above me. 'That kid is probably dead anyways..'I thought to myself, causing 더 많이 tears to plummet from my eyes. It was my fault that he had gotten killed. If I would have went with my mother to the grocery store and not went to play he would still be alive. "Gwen, are 당신 alright..?"Brenda jumped down from her bunk and sat on mine. "It's nothing.. really."I reassured her and held back my tears as hard as I could. "Tell me what's wrong."She pleaded as the great friend she tried to be and I respected her for that. "I'll tell 당신 later.."I mumbled into my sore pale arms and she shrugged and climbed back upon her bed. "Get up everyone."The annoying Ms. CIT Courtney that lived 다음 door screamed into a microphone. "What is it now..?"Ryan sat up from his 침대 like a zombie and glared at her. "I just wanted everyone to be on time to breakfast this morning."She scoffed before flipping her brown hair and walking off with her hand on her hip. "I don't even know why the orphanage claimed her as the helper of the volunteers that come here.."Amy laughed annoyed as she lied on her stomach on the brick like bed. I rolled my eyes and stumbled out of 침대 and into the cafeteria of which I just sat in the back away from everyone and stared out at the autumn trees and sketching the scene before me in my sketchbook. After skipping breakfast I went out into the playground that was for the little orphan kids and sketched three girls jump roping. My eyes wandered upon a chalk drawn hop scotch game onto the cement ground and a small boy and girl were playing together. I sighed deeply and buried my left cheek into the palm of my hand and started to draw the long before hop scotch game that me and a boy once played. "Whatcha drawing there, Gwen..?"Brenda walked over and sat beside me on the bench. "Nothing.."I mumbled silently and continued to draw the scene. "You've always been awfully depressed when 당신 come out here to the playground.. is there something that happened before 당신 came here..?"She questioned before reaching for my sketchbook but I pulled it away from her. "Yes, but I don't like to talk about it. actually, I've never spoken to anyone about what happened."I started to get choked up as I kept glancing at the two kids playing hop scotch. "You can tell me anything, Gwen."She explained with a smile. I went silent for a moment and watched brown leaves float around the fenced playground, seeing one fall outside the fence and leaving the others behind. I reached into my sketchbook and slid out the crumpled old photograph of the smiling boy and handed it to her. "Who's this..? were 당신 secretly pregnant-."I cut her off. "No, I wasn't."I faced palmed my forehead and went over to the fence to 레이스 my bony fingers around the metal. "Then what is this photograph about..?"She gave me the picture back and I shoved it in the pocket of my black jacket. "Several years 이전 I met the boy in the picture and.. well, we had some time together meeting his mother and him pushing me on that 그네, 스윙 tied tightly around the tall oak tree. I assume it was a war going on and.."I was now having my face in my hands and sobbing uncontrollably. She handed me a tissue and I wiped my tears and smeared makeup sitting back down on the bench with my face still in my hands. "Did anything else happened..?"She questioned and I ignored her, too upset to finish the rest of the story. "Well, simple question. How did 당신 end up in the orphanage..?"She whispered and patted my back in comfort. "There was a man who kidnapped me when I was about six and decided I wasn't worthy enough to be his child so he sent me here.."I mumbled through tears streaming down my cheeks. "You're 16 right..? damn, you've been here for about 9 또는 10 years."She placed her hand over her mouth to quiet her gasp and her eyes widened in shock. "Thanks for noticing."I rolled my eyes in annoyance and blew the hair out from my face. Teens and younger children were gathering around the fence at a black car strolling up the road and turned into the orphanage parking lot. "There's a new kid.."Someone whispered and many other kids whispered the same thing. "Let's go check it out Gwen."Brenda stood up and yanked me 의해 the wrist, but I pulled away. "No thanks.. I'm gonna go back inside. I'm getting a sunburn."I picked up my sketchbook and the picture of the little boy slid out from the pages and onto the cement. I reached down to grab it but it got caught in the wind and it flew over the tall chained fence and onto the black car where one of the doors opened and a green shoe appeared. 'No luck in getting that back.'I stomped back inside and plopped down on my bunk to take a nap for a few hours. I was awoken 의해 students talking endlessly outside the room and I limped out of the room and decided to continue my nap on the cafeteria table. Eyes barely open and wobbly walking, I harshly bumped into someone and fell onto the floor slamming my head onto the wall. "Are 당신 alright..?"The person spoke softly and knelt down beside me taking my hand into his gentle hand. "Leave me alone.. ow."I hissed at him and held the back of my head in pain with my eyes closed tight. "Let me take 당신 to the nurse-."I cut him off. "Leave me alone dammit."I opened my eyes to slapped my fist across his face and I was now staring into a pair of 에메랄드 green eyes. "You dropped this outside.. thought 당신 might want it back."He gave me the photograph that slid from my sketchbook. I stared closely at him and back at the picture of the little boy. I held the photograph 다음 to his face and drawn conclusions that he looked exactly like him but older. "Trent..?"I placed my hand upon his warm cheek having tears fill my eyes quickly. "..Gwen, is that really you..?"He questioned in shock and excitement, holding out his hand and I gladly took it to pull myself up. I wrapped my arms around him tightly and hugged him ever so closely crying into his warm chest. "I cant believe it's you..I thought 당신 were dead."I sobbed and he placed his strong protective arms around my waist. "I thought the same for you.."He whispered gently into my 물오리, 청록 hair and held me even closer. "Hey Gwen, who's your friend..?"Brenda pushed her glasses up her nose and smirked widely at me. "Brenda, this is the little boy in the picture. he's my best friend."I glanced at her for a 초 before grinning back at Trent and he did the same. "Sure, sure.. that's what they all say."She laughed bent over with her hands on her knees. "Whatever.."I rolled my eyes and he hugged me from behind causing me to blush like crazy. "I'll let 당신 too catch up. see 당신 later Gwen."She waved and went off into the cafeteria with her other friends. "I've missed 당신 so much."I turned to face him and snuggled my face into his neck. "As did I, but I'm not here to stay in the orphanage though-."I cut him off once more. "What..? why are 당신 leaving..?"Tears started to burn my eyes from the constant rubbing of tissues against them and caused my voice to crack. "I'm taking 당신 away from here."He answered and wiped one of the tears sliding down my cheek away with his thumb. I lied on the side of my head on his chest and he lifted me into his arms carrying me back into the room and lying me on my bunk gently. Once he sat down onto the bed, I crawled up to him and climbed into his lap like a cat wanting to take a nap on the arm of a couch. "I've been blaming myself for years for your death.."I whispered softly and he lifted my chin up with his finger. "It wasn't your fault."He whispered back sending shivers down my spine. "Yes it was.. if I just would have went with my mother to the store and not have met 당신 it wouldn't have happened."I croaked and looked down at my boots in shame. "It would've happened anyways and I wouldn't have tried my best to get set free from prison to come here and save you."I adored the way he whispered in the dim moonlight and how his words would always make me feel so 안전한, 안전 to be in his arms. I looked up at his 에메랄드 green eyes that glistened with bright stars. "You sketch..?"He asked when he noticed the black sketchbook in my hand. "Oh, yeah..I do. I guess I'm a good drawer.."I turned on the lamp on my nightstand and opened the book and showed him each page. "What's that one..?"He held his finger on a page when I turned to the 다음 one and I went back to the page. "That's the 외양간, 헛간 I drew back when we were just kids.."I whispered and he stared at it with teary eyes drinking the horrible sight of the burning down barn. "I cant believe it's been so long.."He gave me back the sketchbook and did the same pose with his hand over his eyes as he cried remembering the 일 we were being kidnapped. I remembered it all actually.. the dirt road, meeting him and playing on the swing, the screaming of people pleading for life and loud gun shots. "I'm so sorry."I wrapped my arms around him and listened to his gentle cries. Some 초 later I felt his arms slither around me and squeezed me softly holding me closer than he ever has. He looked back into my eyes with his puffy and moist green eyes and I just smiled weakly at him with a blush that I hoped was hidden in the dark. He just smirked which only made my blushing increase and he chuckled slightly. I couldn't take the wait any longer, I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him on the lips and he kissed back passionately leaning me down on my bunk deepening the kiss. I ran my fingers through his soft hair and he held me as close to him as he could as we kissed with slight tongue added to it. I never thought I had feelings for Trent until now..just knowing he was my best friend as a small child and thinking he died 심장 broken me. Now that he's back and we're older, I feel for him. I pulled away slowly as I could and I looked at him with happy squinted eyes he could help but smile and 키스 my eyelids. We both climbed under the sheets of my 침대 and he held me close to him, breathing onto my neck and whispering into my ear goodnight. I rested my head upon his arm and fell asleep happier than I've ever been.
You've gone away
당신 don't feel me here
Anymore
The worst is over now
And we can breathe again
I wanna hold 당신 high and steal my pain away
There's so much left to learn
And no one left to fight
I wanna hold 당신 high and steal your pain
"Gwen, Gwen wake up."Someone breathed softly into my ear and I tried opening my eyes just thinking of what happened that 일 made tears slide from my tightly closed eyelids. I felt something warm press up against my cheeks and I opened my eyes seeing that nothing was there. "Good morning Gwen."The gentle voice made me jump and I turned over to see Trent with my suitcase smiling. "Morning.."I climbed out of 침대 and walked down with Trent to the people who take care of the children of the orphanage. "May I help you..?"The nerdy sounding lady spoke as she typed something on the old fashioned computer. "Yes, I'm here to give 당신 the papers my Aunt had filled out days before to adopt someone."Trent looked at me with an expression that read happiness and I smiled at him looking around the room trying to not miss anyone here. "Thank 당신 and have a nice day."The lady took the papers from Trent and he intertwined his hand in mine and we both walked out into the blinding sunlight. It's finally nice to be out of that shelter for so long and smell the fresh air of the aroma of 꽃 nearby. He opened the door of his car and I sat in the passenger 좌석 him shutting the door behind me gently and getting into the 좌석 beside me and to drive off away from the prison. "Where are we going..?"I asked as I looked out the window at the trees and houses the car went 의해 quickly. "You'll see."He responded with a quick glance at me and a smile then going back to look at the road. "Close your eyes please."He chuckled and I looked at him with an skeptical look but did what he said anyways. "Can I uncover my eyes yet..?"I mumbled before giggling and heard him chuckle in his throat. "Not yet..no peeking."He warned gently when the car came to a sudden stop and got out of the car to go to my side and help me out. "Now..?"I sounded a little annoyed of how long this was taking. "Okay, 당신 can open your eyes now gorgeous."He whispered into my ear and I finally got to take my hand away from my eyes. I felt the urge of breaking down as I was standing in front of the 집 I used to live in with my mom and brother. "How did 당신 find out where I lived..?"I spoke with my choked up voice and he wrapped an arm around me as we walked to the light blue door. "I found your mother one 일 and we talked and then getting to know where 당신 lived."He chuckled before ringing the doorbell. The person who opened it was a man the same height as Trent and had black hair with what seemed like 칼, 나이프 slashes across his face. "Son, I'm glad 당신 found her."The man looked at me with a smile much like Trent's and I looked at Trent in confusion. "Pardon me, mam. I'm Trent's father. Nice to meet you. Your mother and brother are waiting in the 굴, 덴 for you."The man began to walk downstairs and my mother who was much older than the last time I've seen her was hunched over on the 침상, 소파 crying her eyes out with tissues scattered beside her and my brother who looked about 13 sitting 다음 to her patting her back in comfort. "Gwen, my precious baby. I'm so glad you're home."She shot up from the 침상, 소파 and threw her arms around me and hugged me tight enough to choke me from air. "Where have 당신 been all this time..?"Caleb questioned with slight pity in his black colored eyes. "Like 당신 wouldn't know.."I choked out from the tight squeezing of my body. "Are 당신 alright..? please tell me you're all right. are any of your 본즈 broken-."I cut her off with slight laughter. "I'm fine."I crossed my arms over my chest in embarrassment when I saw Trent snickering silently at me as he sat on the wooden stairs. "I wasn't gone for that long."I reassured my mother as she kept asking me 질문 about how life went all that time. "You were gone for 10 years, sweetheart."She sounded a little ticked that I wasn't caring that I haven't seen her for so long. Trent walked over to sit on the 침상, 소파 and I sat on his lap smiling at him followed 의해 his lips meeting my cheek. "Why are 당신 getting comfortable with your brother?"Caleb asked in disgust with his eyes squinted in fear. "Trent isn't my brother, 당신 are, stupid."I growled at him in a hiss and he shook his head in disagreement. "Actually Gwen..there's something I didn't tell 당신 when 당신 were still living here but 당신 were too young to know."My mother began to look nervous as she looked down at the carpeted floor. "Trent is your half brother-."Trent cut his father off. "That isn't true. The only sibling I have is Julie 당신 know that dad."His eyes darted at him with the rage of hell screaming in them. "You were also too young to know it as well, son. I was walked 집 from work one night and I found a lady crying on a 거리 corner in the rain so I offered to take her back to the 외양간, 헛간 to comfort her and we got a little intimate and, well the rest 당신 know."He explained with sorrow shadowing his face as his son was mumbling things about his lying. "That's bullshit."I heard him mumble as he had his head hoisted up on his clenched fist. "It isn't, Trent. Gwen is your half sister."His father explained once 더 많이 and Trent got up, walked up the stairs and left the room without a word. I soon got up and walked to the backdoor finding Trent with both his hands in his pockets staring down at the ground frowning. I traced my fingers across my lips thinking I cant believe I made out with my half brother. "Trent..?"I whispered from behind him and he slowly turned to me with his eyes fallen upon the ground, mumbling a 'What?'. "Are 당신 alright..?"I walked towards him and placed my hand on his shoulder. "Sure."He mumbled under his breath and continued to not look me in the eyes. "Your father might not be exactly true about the whole half brother sister thing. maybe we could..I don't know possibly get our DNA's checked out to see if it is correct. "That sounds cool, I guess."His eyes lit up but his voice wouldn't. I explained what Trent and I decided to do to our parents and they approved of this. "Now that I have both DNA samples for both parents, I need samples of the children if 당신 don't mind."The doctor came out of the room with my mother and Trent's father with a clipboard. "Now if 당신 would please lift up your 셔츠 sleeves."The doctor instructed to us as he pulled out a needle from a bag. The first needle was for Trent and he seemed to handle it just fine. The 초 needle broken through my sensitive pale skin and I winced at the pain. "I'll be examining the results to see if they're fatal 또는 true."The doctor explained and shut the door behind us. The waiting room was dead silent. All I could hear was my own breathing and the rain pelting onto the blinds covered window. I thought my 심장 was going to explode in my chest if there was movement 또는 even a slight sound filling the air. The knob of the room turned slowly and out came the doctor with his clipboard and pen 글쓰기 down on the papers upon it. "The test results were fatal. Gwen Stevens and Trent Jess are not half siblings."The doctor handed the papers to Trent's father and my mother looked at them with him. "So, 당신 both lied to us..?"Trent spoke up with his normal voice but with anger flowing through it. "We both knew 당신 two were in 사랑 so we had to find a story to keep 당신 teenagers away from each other. I didn't want my son marrying some goth girl."Trent's father growled at him and Trent looked like he would have struck him across the face with his fist. "Come on Trent.."I mumbled and grabbed Trent 의해 his green shirt, him still death glaring at his father until he was out of sight. "You passed my house.."I noticed Trent driving right past it not even looking. "Exactly."He kept his eyes locked on the road. The car stopped at an old oak 나무, 트리 and I stared teary eyed at the 그네, 스윙 still tied on the 트렁크 moving ever so slightly in the gentle breeze. I looked at Trent with a soft expression and he smiled getting out of the car and helping me out. I sat upon the wooden 좌석 of the 그네, 스윙 and slowly moved my feet back and forth having him go behind me and push me gently on the 그네, 스윙 just barely moving me with his fingertips. "This brings back memories.."I whispered and watched the thousands of fireflies soar around in the leaves of the oak tree. It was even 더 많이 peaceful here at night even if this was a war sight. The crickets chirping in the patches of grass, fireflies are the light in this beautiful paradise, and having Trent with me was even better. "There is a reason I brought 당신 here, Gwen."He leaned down and rested his chin on my head. "Yes..?"I whispered as I kept staring at the 총 and cannons around the dirt road with skeletons beside them. Silence spoke for his words and grasshoppers skipped from one place to another. "I wanted to start a new life here... with you."He whispered so silently that I could barely here him. "What..?"I turned to him with a shocked expression. "If I'm going too fast we don't have to-."I cut him off. "I wasn't going to reject 당신 또는 anything I'm just surprised 당신 want to spend the rest of your life with me."I stared into his eyes with passion. "'Course I do. I really do 사랑 당신 and you're such an independent and beautiful young lady."He knelt down before me and held both of my hands with his smile widening. "Then I'll say yes to your proposal."I smiled and wrapped my arms around his neck pulling my face just inches from his. "Alright then."He grinned and pulled himself 앞으로 to 키스 me.
'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
I walked over down the field of fresh green 잔디 and smiled at the few newly grown 체리 blossom trees. "Mommy, can I go play with Pete down 의해 the river..?"Adam yanked on my dress to get my attention and I looked down at the small boy in his dirt stained overalls with his daddy's smile on his face. "Sure but please don't get 로스트 like 당신 did last time."I warned him and he and the small golden retriever we named after Trent's dog as a kid ran down the 언덕, 힐 and splashed in the water. I placed my hands on my 6 월 pregnant stomach and walked over towards the still being built 집 finding Trent painting the 벽 in the kitchen. "Hey beautiful, how are 당신 feeling..?"He walked over towards me and hugged me gently. "I'm fine."I sat down 의해 the 부엌, 주방 표, 테이블 to a sketch I left unfinished of the trees in the backyard and decided to finish it. Adam and a little girl his age walked in through the front door giggling while with a mud covered 강아지 following. "Mommy, Daddy, this is Angelica. can she stay to play video games with me..?"Adam looked at me with the 강아지 dog eyes leaving me to be unable to say yes. "Does it ring a bell..?"Trent chuckled as he swiped the paint brush in his hand up and down the wall. "Yes, actually it does."I began to giggle along with him. "I 사랑 당신 darling."He kissed my cheek and went back to painting. "I 사랑 당신 too."I smiled before going back to my drawing.
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone
You've gone away
당신 don't feel me anymore
I was in the car with my mother on the way from Church and I continued to stare out the window at the 꽃 passing by. "I'll be back soon from the grocery store,Gwen. don't get your dress dirty."My mother warned me with a glare that meant she wasn't playing. "Okay, mommy."I opened the door and hopped down onto the patches of fresh 잔디 with sand like colored dirt below my small sparkly blue shoes. I skipped over towards the tall oak 나무, 트리 that held a 그네, 스윙 on one of it's thick 나무, 트리 trunks and sat upon it,grabbing onto the two ropes and began to kick my feet back and forth giggling as the wind gently kissed my face. I loved to come here everyday and 그네, 스윙 for awhile seeing that every time I would 그네, 스윙 so high I could see a bright red painted 외양간, 헛간 over the tall 옥수수 stalks. I would also sometimes bring my journal along and draw whatever came in sight to me that looked beautiful. I wasn't all that great a drawer because I'm 6 after all, but my mommy says I'll become a professional artist one day. "Get out of my way."The grouchy bully that lives near the oak 나무, 트리 pushed me out of the 그네, 스윙 and I landed harshly into a puddle of mud. I gasped as I looked at my Church dress that was now covered in mud and I balled my fists over my eyes,starting to cry. "You big meanie, why did 당신 push her..?"Another voice came running up towards the person on the swingset. "It's because I can. do 당신 have a problem with that..?"He got off the 그네, 스윙 and stood in front of the small boy who didn't look like he was afraid of him at all. "That isn't how 당신 treat a lady."His eyebrows seemed to dart down slightly and the taller person pushed him onto the ground. "You're such a nerd and a mama's boy, Trent."The person flicked his head and laughed hysterically before climbing onto his bike and driving off to his 프렌즈 down the dirt hill. "Are 당신 alright..?"The bare footed kid walked over to me and grabbed onto my hand to pull me out of the mud. "My dress is ruined.."My eyes began to whelm with tears again. "Don't cry, I'll fix it."He soothed and ripped a piece of his 셔츠 off and wiped off the mud. "Thank you."I giggled and my cheeks got very warm. He gently took my hand in his and placed me back onto the swing,pushing me softly back and forth. "Push me higher Trent."I giggled as I kicked my feet and he started to push me higher. "Wanna play hop scotch..?"He stopped the movement of the 그네, 스윙 to look at me with his cute grin. "What's that..?"I questioned before he held out his hand to help me down safely from the slightly high above ground 그네, 스윙 and thanking him afterwards. "You've never played that before..? I'll teach you."He grabbed one of the fallen twigs that surrounded the 그네, 스윙 and drew squares in the dirt. I brushed the hair from out of my eyes to look at the drawings he had made of confusion until he skipped across all of them. "Your turn."He gestured his hand at the squares still smiling. I copied what he had done and I ended up slamming into him and we both fell onto the grassy plain, starting to laugh. The lowering sunlight continued to sparkle through the many leaves upon the oak 나무, 트리 and glistened on the waving tall grass. "Where are 당신 from..? I never seen 당신 around here."I sat up and brushed the leaves off my dress. "I live over those tall 옥수수 stalks over there in the red barn."He smiled and helped me up from the ground. "Really..? I 사랑 the view of your home, it's so pretty."I laced my fingers together and giggled like the little child I am. "Maybe I could show you. follow me, um..."He trailed off kicking his feet in the dirt mumbling something under his breath. "I'm Gwen Stevens."I answered and he took my hand in his and pecked it softly with his warm lips. "Pleasure to meet you, Gwen. my name is Trent Jess."He bowed his head slightly and looked back up at me with a smile that seemed to never leave his face. Not letting go of my hand, he started to run off into the 옥수수 stalks, pushing them out of the way so I could get through safely and were soon facing the tall barn. He opened the screen door that made a loud creek as it was being opened and hit up against the bright red wood with a quiet thump. I walked into the 외양간, 헛간 and there were 동물 either sitting down and staring at me 또는 flying around and tweeting a melody. "You really 사랑 동물 I see.."I giggled as a little 강아지 snuggled up at my side and I brushed it's head with my hand followed 의해 it's tongue slobbering on my hand. "That's Pete. and yes, myself and my family 사랑 animals."Trent handed Pete a bone to chew on. "Trent, is that you- who's your friend..?"A woman with her hair up in a rubber band and dress made of rags came in with another 강아지 who ran over and tackled Pete playfully. "Good morning mother. this is Gwen Stevens."he introduced me and his mother's smile faded a little when she saw the stains on my dress. "Would 당신 like me to clean that for 당신 dear..?"She smiled once more. "If 당신 don't mind.. but I don't have any clothing to change in to."I blushed and tried to hide it into the locks of my 물오리, 청록 colored hair. "You may have one of Julie's dresses when she was young and she is in college so she wouldn't mind."She took out a black dress from in a closet and handed in to me to go change in the bathroom and give her my muddy dress. "Want an apple..?"Trent bit into a green 사과, 애플 and grabbed another one out of a pail of water. We both went out to the back porch of his house to have a snack and I stared longingly at the small river they had back here. "Your 집 is amazing."I continued to admire the water flowing 의해 and the vegetable gardens in neat rows of three beside 체리 blossom trees. "Thanks Gwen."Trent threw the 사과, 애플 core onto the fresh 잔디 and a bird picked it up with it's beak and flying back to it's young ones in it's nest to feed them. I scooted in beside him and leaned my head on his shoulder and listening to the birds sing causing my eyelids to flutter like 불, 화재 being put out. A loud gun shot was heard and the birds quickly flew off in fright screeching as they did. Trent stood up and looked around the corner of the barn, his eyes widening for what seems like fear and he started to cower back towards the back door. "What is it-."He cut me off and grabbed me 의해 the wrist taking me back inside the 외양간, 헛간 and hiding under the table. "Where is your children..?"A man's voice cut through my ears like a 칼, 나이프 being sliced across skin. "I.. I don't know, I swear."It sounded like Trent's mother sobbing and then another gun shot went off silencing her crying. I could see that Trent's eyes were being filled with tears and he closed them placing his dirt coated hand over his eyes. "Sweet little kiddies, come out where ever 당신 are."The man stomped into the room with his black as a burned out candle wick boots and threw stuff around to look for us. Trent soon stopped tearing and looked at me with an expression in his eyes that read terrified and upset. "Search this entire place until 당신 find her children. if 당신 don't we'll just burn this piece of shit 집 to the ground."The man ordered to three other tall men in the room who had weapons on a 벨트 around their waists. From outside I could hear people screaming and 총 going off like crazy, glass shattering, and even 더 많이 heavier weapons that made a loud sound and it was probably those tanks that are used in the military. "There 당신 are."One of the men grabbed me 의해 the arm and yanked me out from under the table. I screamed in fright but Trent pulled me away from the blood shot eyed man and held me behind him in protection. "So 당신 want to be the first to go, eh..? whatever."The guy grabbed Trent 의해 the 칼라 of his 셔츠 and pulled a 칼, 나이프 out from the 벨트 holding it closely to his neck. I was going to fight back at the guy but someone grabbed me 의해 the hair and I was now facing a man with only one eye and teeth pointy like a shark. "Hello sweetheart."The man chuckled and threw me into a sack on the side of the horse he was riding and the horse ran out of the house and back up the dirt road. I peeked out of the little opening and saw many of men dressed in the same uniform killing people with knives and guns. Trent ran out of the front of the 외양간, 헛간 and tripped onto the bloody 잔디 and a few of the same dressed men went over to him and started to beat him with the ends of the 총 they had. I watched as he screamed in pain as they continued to beat him and I cried out his name causing the man with the one eye to pound his fist upon the sack to quiet me. I glanced out one last time at the beautiful red 외양간, 헛간 that was now burst into flames and it began to collapse. I fell back into the sack and curled up in a ball in fear and listened to the horse's hooves clack stomp onto the dirt road.
I wanted 당신 to know that I 사랑 the way 당신 laugh
I wanna hold 당신 high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph and I know it serves me well
I wanna hold 당신 high and steal your pain
Because I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
I opened my eyes to find myself snuggled up under a not so thick cover on the bottom of a bunk 침대 in a room full of three other bunk beds with teens who had wished they were loved 의해 their past parents. I sat up and stretched my sore arms from working for the neighbors the other 일 and got out my mirror to fix my hair. I lied back down and something crumpled under my 베개 and I reached under and pulled out a wrinkly photograph of a boy who was leaning up against the bright red wood of a barn. Tears whelmed up in my eyes and I stuffed the picture into my sketchbook and stared up at the rough wood that held the 침대 above me. 'That kid is probably dead anyways..'I thought to myself, causing 더 많이 tears to plummet from my eyes. It was my fault that he had gotten killed. If I would have went with my mother to the grocery store and not went to play he would still be alive. "Gwen, are 당신 alright..?"Brenda jumped down from her bunk and sat on mine. "It's nothing.. really."I reassured her and held back my tears as hard as I could. "Tell me what's wrong."She pleaded as the great friend she tried to be and I respected her for that. "I'll tell 당신 later.."I mumbled into my sore pale arms and she shrugged and climbed back upon her bed. "Get up everyone."The annoying Ms. CIT Courtney that lived 다음 door screamed into a microphone. "What is it now..?"Ryan sat up from his 침대 like a zombie and glared at her. "I just wanted everyone to be on time to breakfast this morning."She scoffed before flipping her brown hair and walking off with her hand on her hip. "I don't even know why the orphanage claimed her as the helper of the volunteers that come here.."Amy laughed annoyed as she lied on her stomach on the brick like bed. I rolled my eyes and stumbled out of 침대 and into the cafeteria of which I just sat in the back away from everyone and stared out at the autumn trees and sketching the scene before me in my sketchbook. After skipping breakfast I went out into the playground that was for the little orphan kids and sketched three girls jump roping. My eyes wandered upon a chalk drawn hop scotch game onto the cement ground and a small boy and girl were playing together. I sighed deeply and buried my left cheek into the palm of my hand and started to draw the long before hop scotch game that me and a boy once played. "Whatcha drawing there, Gwen..?"Brenda walked over and sat beside me on the bench. "Nothing.."I mumbled silently and continued to draw the scene. "You've always been awfully depressed when 당신 come out here to the playground.. is there something that happened before 당신 came here..?"She questioned before reaching for my sketchbook but I pulled it away from her. "Yes, but I don't like to talk about it. actually, I've never spoken to anyone about what happened."I started to get choked up as I kept glancing at the two kids playing hop scotch. "You can tell me anything, Gwen."She explained with a smile. I went silent for a moment and watched brown leaves float around the fenced playground, seeing one fall outside the fence and leaving the others behind. I reached into my sketchbook and slid out the crumpled old photograph of the smiling boy and handed it to her. "Who's this..? were 당신 secretly pregnant-."I cut her off. "No, I wasn't."I faced palmed my forehead and went over to the fence to 레이스 my bony fingers around the metal. "Then what is this photograph about..?"She gave me the picture back and I shoved it in the pocket of my black jacket. "Several years 이전 I met the boy in the picture and.. well, we had some time together meeting his mother and him pushing me on that 그네, 스윙 tied tightly around the tall oak tree. I assume it was a war going on and.."I was now having my face in my hands and sobbing uncontrollably. She handed me a tissue and I wiped my tears and smeared makeup sitting back down on the bench with my face still in my hands. "Did anything else happened..?"She questioned and I ignored her, too upset to finish the rest of the story. "Well, simple question. How did 당신 end up in the orphanage..?"She whispered and patted my back in comfort. "There was a man who kidnapped me when I was about six and decided I wasn't worthy enough to be his child so he sent me here.."I mumbled through tears streaming down my cheeks. "You're 16 right..? damn, you've been here for about 9 또는 10 years."She placed her hand over her mouth to quiet her gasp and her eyes widened in shock. "Thanks for noticing."I rolled my eyes in annoyance and blew the hair out from my face. Teens and younger children were gathering around the fence at a black car strolling up the road and turned into the orphanage parking lot. "There's a new kid.."Someone whispered and many other kids whispered the same thing. "Let's go check it out Gwen."Brenda stood up and yanked me 의해 the wrist, but I pulled away. "No thanks.. I'm gonna go back inside. I'm getting a sunburn."I picked up my sketchbook and the picture of the little boy slid out from the pages and onto the cement. I reached down to grab it but it got caught in the wind and it flew over the tall chained fence and onto the black car where one of the doors opened and a green shoe appeared. 'No luck in getting that back.'I stomped back inside and plopped down on my bunk to take a nap for a few hours. I was awoken 의해 students talking endlessly outside the room and I limped out of the room and decided to continue my nap on the cafeteria table. Eyes barely open and wobbly walking, I harshly bumped into someone and fell onto the floor slamming my head onto the wall. "Are 당신 alright..?"The person spoke softly and knelt down beside me taking my hand into his gentle hand. "Leave me alone.. ow."I hissed at him and held the back of my head in pain with my eyes closed tight. "Let me take 당신 to the nurse-."I cut him off. "Leave me alone dammit."I opened my eyes to slapped my fist across his face and I was now staring into a pair of 에메랄드 green eyes. "You dropped this outside.. thought 당신 might want it back."He gave me the photograph that slid from my sketchbook. I stared closely at him and back at the picture of the little boy. I held the photograph 다음 to his face and drawn conclusions that he looked exactly like him but older. "Trent..?"I placed my hand upon his warm cheek having tears fill my eyes quickly. "..Gwen, is that really you..?"He questioned in shock and excitement, holding out his hand and I gladly took it to pull myself up. I wrapped my arms around him tightly and hugged him ever so closely crying into his warm chest. "I cant believe it's you..I thought 당신 were dead."I sobbed and he placed his strong protective arms around my waist. "I thought the same for you.."He whispered gently into my 물오리, 청록 hair and held me even closer. "Hey Gwen, who's your friend..?"Brenda pushed her glasses up her nose and smirked widely at me. "Brenda, this is the little boy in the picture. he's my best friend."I glanced at her for a 초 before grinning back at Trent and he did the same. "Sure, sure.. that's what they all say."She laughed bent over with her hands on her knees. "Whatever.."I rolled my eyes and he hugged me from behind causing me to blush like crazy. "I'll let 당신 too catch up. see 당신 later Gwen."She waved and went off into the cafeteria with her other friends. "I've missed 당신 so much."I turned to face him and snuggled my face into his neck. "As did I, but I'm not here to stay in the orphanage though-."I cut him off once more. "What..? why are 당신 leaving..?"Tears started to burn my eyes from the constant rubbing of tissues against them and caused my voice to crack. "I'm taking 당신 away from here."He answered and wiped one of the tears sliding down my cheek away with his thumb. I lied on the side of my head on his chest and he lifted me into his arms carrying me back into the room and lying me on my bunk gently. Once he sat down onto the bed, I crawled up to him and climbed into his lap like a cat wanting to take a nap on the arm of a couch. "I've been blaming myself for years for your death.."I whispered softly and he lifted my chin up with his finger. "It wasn't your fault."He whispered back sending shivers down my spine. "Yes it was.. if I just would have went with my mother to the store and not have met 당신 it wouldn't have happened."I croaked and looked down at my boots in shame. "It would've happened anyways and I wouldn't have tried my best to get set free from prison to come here and save you."I adored the way he whispered in the dim moonlight and how his words would always make me feel so 안전한, 안전 to be in his arms. I looked up at his 에메랄드 green eyes that glistened with bright stars. "You sketch..?"He asked when he noticed the black sketchbook in my hand. "Oh, yeah..I do. I guess I'm a good drawer.."I turned on the lamp on my nightstand and opened the book and showed him each page. "What's that one..?"He held his finger on a page when I turned to the 다음 one and I went back to the page. "That's the 외양간, 헛간 I drew back when we were just kids.."I whispered and he stared at it with teary eyes drinking the horrible sight of the burning down barn. "I cant believe it's been so long.."He gave me back the sketchbook and did the same pose with his hand over his eyes as he cried remembering the 일 we were being kidnapped. I remembered it all actually.. the dirt road, meeting him and playing on the swing, the screaming of people pleading for life and loud gun shots. "I'm so sorry."I wrapped my arms around him and listened to his gentle cries. Some 초 later I felt his arms slither around me and squeezed me softly holding me closer than he ever has. He looked back into my eyes with his puffy and moist green eyes and I just smiled weakly at him with a blush that I hoped was hidden in the dark. He just smirked which only made my blushing increase and he chuckled slightly. I couldn't take the wait any longer, I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him on the lips and he kissed back passionately leaning me down on my bunk deepening the kiss. I ran my fingers through his soft hair and he held me as close to him as he could as we kissed with slight tongue added to it. I never thought I had feelings for Trent until now..just knowing he was my best friend as a small child and thinking he died 심장 broken me. Now that he's back and we're older, I feel for him. I pulled away slowly as I could and I looked at him with happy squinted eyes he could help but smile and 키스 my eyelids. We both climbed under the sheets of my 침대 and he held me close to him, breathing onto my neck and whispering into my ear goodnight. I rested my head upon his arm and fell asleep happier than I've ever been.
You've gone away
당신 don't feel me here
Anymore
The worst is over now
And we can breathe again
I wanna hold 당신 high and steal my pain away
There's so much left to learn
And no one left to fight
I wanna hold 당신 high and steal your pain
"Gwen, Gwen wake up."Someone breathed softly into my ear and I tried opening my eyes just thinking of what happened that 일 made tears slide from my tightly closed eyelids. I felt something warm press up against my cheeks and I opened my eyes seeing that nothing was there. "Good morning Gwen."The gentle voice made me jump and I turned over to see Trent with my suitcase smiling. "Morning.."I climbed out of 침대 and walked down with Trent to the people who take care of the children of the orphanage. "May I help you..?"The nerdy sounding lady spoke as she typed something on the old fashioned computer. "Yes, I'm here to give 당신 the papers my Aunt had filled out days before to adopt someone."Trent looked at me with an expression that read happiness and I smiled at him looking around the room trying to not miss anyone here. "Thank 당신 and have a nice day."The lady took the papers from Trent and he intertwined his hand in mine and we both walked out into the blinding sunlight. It's finally nice to be out of that shelter for so long and smell the fresh air of the aroma of 꽃 nearby. He opened the door of his car and I sat in the passenger 좌석 him shutting the door behind me gently and getting into the 좌석 beside me and to drive off away from the prison. "Where are we going..?"I asked as I looked out the window at the trees and houses the car went 의해 quickly. "You'll see."He responded with a quick glance at me and a smile then going back to look at the road. "Close your eyes please."He chuckled and I looked at him with an skeptical look but did what he said anyways. "Can I uncover my eyes yet..?"I mumbled before giggling and heard him chuckle in his throat. "Not yet..no peeking."He warned gently when the car came to a sudden stop and got out of the car to go to my side and help me out. "Now..?"I sounded a little annoyed of how long this was taking. "Okay, 당신 can open your eyes now gorgeous."He whispered into my ear and I finally got to take my hand away from my eyes. I felt the urge of breaking down as I was standing in front of the 집 I used to live in with my mom and brother. "How did 당신 find out where I lived..?"I spoke with my choked up voice and he wrapped an arm around me as we walked to the light blue door. "I found your mother one 일 and we talked and then getting to know where 당신 lived."He chuckled before ringing the doorbell. The person who opened it was a man the same height as Trent and had black hair with what seemed like 칼, 나이프 slashes across his face. "Son, I'm glad 당신 found her."The man looked at me with a smile much like Trent's and I looked at Trent in confusion. "Pardon me, mam. I'm Trent's father. Nice to meet you. Your mother and brother are waiting in the 굴, 덴 for you."The man began to walk downstairs and my mother who was much older than the last time I've seen her was hunched over on the 침상, 소파 crying her eyes out with tissues scattered beside her and my brother who looked about 13 sitting 다음 to her patting her back in comfort. "Gwen, my precious baby. I'm so glad you're home."She shot up from the 침상, 소파 and threw her arms around me and hugged me tight enough to choke me from air. "Where have 당신 been all this time..?"Caleb questioned with slight pity in his black colored eyes. "Like 당신 wouldn't know.."I choked out from the tight squeezing of my body. "Are 당신 alright..? please tell me you're all right. are any of your 본즈 broken-."I cut her off with slight laughter. "I'm fine."I crossed my arms over my chest in embarrassment when I saw Trent snickering silently at me as he sat on the wooden stairs. "I wasn't gone for that long."I reassured my mother as she kept asking me 질문 about how life went all that time. "You were gone for 10 years, sweetheart."She sounded a little ticked that I wasn't caring that I haven't seen her for so long. Trent walked over to sit on the 침상, 소파 and I sat on his lap smiling at him followed 의해 his lips meeting my cheek. "Why are 당신 getting comfortable with your brother?"Caleb asked in disgust with his eyes squinted in fear. "Trent isn't my brother, 당신 are, stupid."I growled at him in a hiss and he shook his head in disagreement. "Actually Gwen..there's something I didn't tell 당신 when 당신 were still living here but 당신 were too young to know."My mother began to look nervous as she looked down at the carpeted floor. "Trent is your half brother-."Trent cut his father off. "That isn't true. The only sibling I have is Julie 당신 know that dad."His eyes darted at him with the rage of hell screaming in them. "You were also too young to know it as well, son. I was walked 집 from work one night and I found a lady crying on a 거리 corner in the rain so I offered to take her back to the 외양간, 헛간 to comfort her and we got a little intimate and, well the rest 당신 know."He explained with sorrow shadowing his face as his son was mumbling things about his lying. "That's bullshit."I heard him mumble as he had his head hoisted up on his clenched fist. "It isn't, Trent. Gwen is your half sister."His father explained once 더 많이 and Trent got up, walked up the stairs and left the room without a word. I soon got up and walked to the backdoor finding Trent with both his hands in his pockets staring down at the ground frowning. I traced my fingers across my lips thinking I cant believe I made out with my half brother. "Trent..?"I whispered from behind him and he slowly turned to me with his eyes fallen upon the ground, mumbling a 'What?'. "Are 당신 alright..?"I walked towards him and placed my hand on his shoulder. "Sure."He mumbled under his breath and continued to not look me in the eyes. "Your father might not be exactly true about the whole half brother sister thing. maybe we could..I don't know possibly get our DNA's checked out to see if it is correct. "That sounds cool, I guess."His eyes lit up but his voice wouldn't. I explained what Trent and I decided to do to our parents and they approved of this. "Now that I have both DNA samples for both parents, I need samples of the children if 당신 don't mind."The doctor came out of the room with my mother and Trent's father with a clipboard. "Now if 당신 would please lift up your 셔츠 sleeves."The doctor instructed to us as he pulled out a needle from a bag. The first needle was for Trent and he seemed to handle it just fine. The 초 needle broken through my sensitive pale skin and I winced at the pain. "I'll be examining the results to see if they're fatal 또는 true."The doctor explained and shut the door behind us. The waiting room was dead silent. All I could hear was my own breathing and the rain pelting onto the blinds covered window. I thought my 심장 was going to explode in my chest if there was movement 또는 even a slight sound filling the air. The knob of the room turned slowly and out came the doctor with his clipboard and pen 글쓰기 down on the papers upon it. "The test results were fatal. Gwen Stevens and Trent Jess are not half siblings."The doctor handed the papers to Trent's father and my mother looked at them with him. "So, 당신 both lied to us..?"Trent spoke up with his normal voice but with anger flowing through it. "We both knew 당신 two were in 사랑 so we had to find a story to keep 당신 teenagers away from each other. I didn't want my son marrying some goth girl."Trent's father growled at him and Trent looked like he would have struck him across the face with his fist. "Come on Trent.."I mumbled and grabbed Trent 의해 his green shirt, him still death glaring at his father until he was out of sight. "You passed my house.."I noticed Trent driving right past it not even looking. "Exactly."He kept his eyes locked on the road. The car stopped at an old oak 나무, 트리 and I stared teary eyed at the 그네, 스윙 still tied on the 트렁크 moving ever so slightly in the gentle breeze. I looked at Trent with a soft expression and he smiled getting out of the car and helping me out. I sat upon the wooden 좌석 of the 그네, 스윙 and slowly moved my feet back and forth having him go behind me and push me gently on the 그네, 스윙 just barely moving me with his fingertips. "This brings back memories.."I whispered and watched the thousands of fireflies soar around in the leaves of the oak tree. It was even 더 많이 peaceful here at night even if this was a war sight. The crickets chirping in the patches of grass, fireflies are the light in this beautiful paradise, and having Trent with me was even better. "There is a reason I brought 당신 here, Gwen."He leaned down and rested his chin on my head. "Yes..?"I whispered as I kept staring at the 총 and cannons around the dirt road with skeletons beside them. Silence spoke for his words and grasshoppers skipped from one place to another. "I wanted to start a new life here... with you."He whispered so silently that I could barely here him. "What..?"I turned to him with a shocked expression. "If I'm going too fast we don't have to-."I cut him off. "I wasn't going to reject 당신 또는 anything I'm just surprised 당신 want to spend the rest of your life with me."I stared into his eyes with passion. "'Course I do. I really do 사랑 당신 and you're such an independent and beautiful young lady."He knelt down before me and held both of my hands with his smile widening. "Then I'll say yes to your proposal."I smiled and wrapped my arms around his neck pulling my face just inches from his. "Alright then."He grinned and pulled himself 앞으로 to 키스 me.
'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
I walked over down the field of fresh green 잔디 and smiled at the few newly grown 체리 blossom trees. "Mommy, can I go play with Pete down 의해 the river..?"Adam yanked on my dress to get my attention and I looked down at the small boy in his dirt stained overalls with his daddy's smile on his face. "Sure but please don't get 로스트 like 당신 did last time."I warned him and he and the small golden retriever we named after Trent's dog as a kid ran down the 언덕, 힐 and splashed in the water. I placed my hands on my 6 월 pregnant stomach and walked over towards the still being built 집 finding Trent painting the 벽 in the kitchen. "Hey beautiful, how are 당신 feeling..?"He walked over towards me and hugged me gently. "I'm fine."I sat down 의해 the 부엌, 주방 표, 테이블 to a sketch I left unfinished of the trees in the backyard and decided to finish it. Adam and a little girl his age walked in through the front door giggling while with a mud covered 강아지 following. "Mommy, Daddy, this is Angelica. can she stay to play video games with me..?"Adam looked at me with the 강아지 dog eyes leaving me to be unable to say yes. "Does it ring a bell..?"Trent chuckled as he swiped the paint brush in his hand up and down the wall. "Yes, actually it does."I began to giggle along with him. "I 사랑 당신 darling."He kissed my cheek and went back to painting. "I 사랑 당신 too."I smiled before going back to my drawing.
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone
