Chapter 1: why didnt you tell me, why?!
"It's going to be a normal day" I tell myself as I walk down the stairs after waking up. "Morning mum, morning dad" I shout as I walk to the table. "Good Morning sweetie. Have you gotten your stuff ready?" My mum asked, I nodded showing her my college bag.
"Good, now, I want you to stop going through the graveyard way to your school, young lady!" I sighed, she has asked me to stop going yet I still do, won't she ever realise? I put on a fake smile and lie "of course mum, I won't" I sighed in my head 'and she's going to fall for my fake smile again' I thought as I stuffed my face with the toast then got up. "Alright I'm leaving now bye!" I shout as I ran out the door
I got to the graveyard and jumped over the gate again. "I still don't know why she doesn't want me going in here" I said as I decided to walk down another way. I used to always walk down this graveyard with Benjamin well everyone called him Ben and I did to. Him and I were best friends until he had to move I have heard anything from him in 5 years.
Looking around I trip over a stick and hurt my foot, "oww-" I whined from the pain, I checked the time and realised I didn't have time to explore. "Well, see ya after school graveyard!" I should as I ran in the other direction to my school, jumping over the fence I see my college gate, fixing myself I walk over to the gate and walked in, I looked over to the side and remember when Ben would wait there if he was earlier then me.
After a while I find my class and sit down on my seat, sighing, looking around I still see everyone looking at me with those, sympathetic eyes, but why? Nothings happened to me to make me want to feel sympathy. Later my friend, Jessica came running to me. "(Y/N)~ how are you this lovely morning~" she asked sitting down next to me. "You know the same old, same old." We both giggled at that joke I said every morning she asks that question.
After class Jessica poked my shoulder, "hmm, yes?" I ask as I pack my books away, I got the rest of the day off College. "I have wanted to ask you, but why is everyone also talking about how depressed you must have been 3 years go?" I gave my friend a puzzled look. "What? Nothing happened to me 3 years ago" I said giggling. Jessica gave me confused look but just shrugged it off. "Anyways wanna explore their graveyard today?" I asked Her She shrugged, "why not let's go, (Y/N)" after that we walked our way to the graveyard.
We have been walking down the graveyard for a while now just talking about different things, when Jessica called out to me. "Um, (Y/N)? Didn't you say you knew someone by the name of Benjamin Seth Lawman?" My eyes widened, why would she say the name of my childhood best friend?. "Yes, he was my childhood best friend, why do you ask?" I walked over to her. She pointed at a gravestone, next to it was Ben's favourite flower when I read the name, my heart stopped
"Benjamin Seth Lawman.....Benjamin Seth Lawman" I said over and over again feeling tears come to my eyes. "BEN WAS MY BEST FRIEND WHY DIDNT I KNOW HE DIED?!" I screamed while crying falling onto my knees in front of his gravestone. "It says he died three years ago...that must be the thing they were worried about.." She said getting down to my side. I hugged her while crying my heart out. "There there, (Y/N).."
After a few minutes of non-stop crying. I got up. "I need to know why my mum never told me about his death..." I said taking a picture of his gravestone, I place my favourite stone, the one I was meaning to give to him on his 13th Birthday. "Come on let's go back to my house.."
We slowly made our way to my front door, I opened it and walked in front of my mum, trying not to scream in her face. "Mum, w-why didn't you t-tell me?" I asked feeling the tears coming down my cheeks again, her eyes widened, bringing me into a tight hug. "What didn't I tell you, sweetie?" I couldn't help it. She never told me and doesn't think I would find out? I exploded with anger.
"WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME THAT MY BEST FRIEND DIED 3 YEARS AGO?! EVERYONE AT THE COLLEGE KNEW APART FROM ME, WHY ME?!" I shouted at my mum at the top of my lungs, breathing hard. She sighed, and puts a hand on my shoulder. "How did you find out?" I sighed again, looking down, 'I know she won't be happy...'
'Me and Jessica went to the graveyard to explore she found his grave and asked me if it's the Ben I know...and it ended up being him" I show her the photo I took of his grave. She sighed and hugged me tight again, I become stiff but then hugged her back. "We thought it would be better if you never knew, so you wouldn't be depressed" I began to cry a little again.
"I-I know that you did it for me but please, tell me if something like this happens again okay-?" She nodded then told me she's going to get something from the basement. I fell onto the couch with Jessica next to me. "Are you okay, (Y/N)?" She asked I nodded. "Yeah I'm alright, no need to worry"
After a while my mum comes back with a big box. "Woah, mum what's in that?" I asked wide eyed, she chuckled. "It's all if Ben's old games and that." My eyes sparkled, I was always jealous at the stuff that Ben got and now I got them myself?! "Oh cool, is this what you wanted to show me?" I asked walking up close to her. "Yep they're all yours." She said smiling, my eyes sparkling "really?!" She nodded once again I jumped up and down excited.
With the help of Jessica I managed to get all of the games up to my room. "Thanks Jess" she nodded, we checked the time and realised it's time for Jessica go to home. "Goodbye Jessica, I hope you enjoyed our play date!" I shout out to her and she waved and walked home. Walking back up to my room, I flop on my bed and scroll through my phone. "Oh I should probably unpack all of this" I sighed and started to look through all of the stuff.
There was Xbox games, PS3 games, and some pc games and one Nintendo game with the Nintendo itself. "Oh! It's that game Ben was non-stop playing!" I giggled at remembering it. I checked the time and decided I should go to bed. I get out of my clothes and left on my bra and panties, it was hella hot out so I couldn't wear my pjs. Then laid down on my bed trying to get some sleep, but I kept on feeling like I was being watched....
