Erin's POV
Okay Kristen is back. Time to meet Carter. She
had her time and now its my time to shine. I left the girls with a
simple bye & a hug. They wished me luck and I was off
faster than gun shot. I crossed the street and he was leaning
against Seven-Eleven. He saw me, got off the wall and his face lit
up like the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree. I ran to him and he
picked me up, spun me around. He gave me one of those take me by
the waist- spin me around- squeeze me so tight I can't breath-
make me giggle like a little girl hugs. This is gonna be the best.
We went inside and he bought the arnold palmer and a straw, He took
a sip and I did the same. We walked back to the track and he told
me I was beautiful. We were having our normal conversations but
then I noticed something... there was a red scratch across his
right cheek. He told me it was nothing and I said no its not what
happened. He persisted it was nothing so my walking came to a
hault. His head whipped around and he said "Fine. Right before
I left I got into a fight with my dad. It was the second time he
hit me this month. He stopped going to therapy because he thought
better but we guess not." I apologized I made him sit down on
the steps with me. A boy two years older than me put his head on my
shoulder and balled. He cried like he fell and broke every
bone in his body. So I sat there shut up and let him cry. After ten
minutes he said " Honestly Erin, thank you. Thank you for
being there when no one was. If it weren't for you I would be
lost in life. This is why I love you. I love you so much more than
any word can ever describe. You're the only reason I'm
still alive." My face dropped. I said "Wait...
what?". He said "I've tried killing my self by pills
...twice but every time I go to take the last one to complete that
fatal dose Your face, Your kind words pop into my head and I put
them down." Not one sound could come out of my mouth... I was
in total shock.
