Roses{12}
≈Spencer's P.O.V≈
I hate roses. I hate roses. I hate roses. I hate roses. I hate roses. I hate roses. I think in my head over and over in my head as I make my way out of my mother's rose bushes. My younger brother had pushed me out of a window and the bushes were below it. Worst part is that they have thorns.
"SPENCER LAIM ADAMS!! ALEX EMERSON ADAMS!!" Never mind this is the worst part I think as my mom rushes outside to look in horror at her precious rose bush. She loves her roses even though they die sooner because she isn't the best gardener around. Alex comes outside with a look of amusement on his face until he sees why mom is so mad then it drops into shame. He comes, stands next to me and looks on in disappointment, sadness and anger. I feel the same way but I've learned to conceal it.
It's almost her birthday. Her 16th birthday. Then 3 weeks later is the anniversary. We have been looking for her everyday of these last 15 years.
"I-its fine. I'll just save the ones I can. Its fine." My mom repeats again.
"Let's head back inside now why don't we?" She says after a while.
Alex and I trail after her back into the dining room. Dads back. Without her. Dad has been going out and looking for Joslyn everyday for 15 years.
"My men came back from the houses but she wasn't there." We hear behind us, we turn our heads in the direction of the voice to see the captain of the guard whose name is Fred.
"Well then we'll have to try again tomorrow with more." Says dad rudely
"There's not enough time to go to every house in Washington State Sir." Replies Fred.
"Well there has to be! This is my baby that we are talking about here! I'm not giving up yet." My dad says as he storms outta the room.
"I didn't say we'd stop. We aren't going to stop for a long time. I just said there isn't enough time in our lives or hers to search or go to every house in the world to look for her." Fred explains
"I know. It's just.. so hard. For all of us." Mom says as she looks at me and Alex. I should know. I've been going out and looking just about everyday. Even though She was only 3 weeks old I still loved her. I was very protective of her. Alex loved her too but he was 1 so he didn't know what was happening. Now he does. It's really sad to see our family sometimes. All our close family friends know what happened. They were just as saddened by her disappearance.
I head up to my room to be alone for a little while. I can't be around my family right now.
≈Sarah's P.O.V≈
I watch as my family separates to go to their rooms. I can't help but question; Is she still alive? Is she okay? Is she in a safe place? Is she hurting? Does she know we miss her? Does she even know who we are?
Stop that Sarah. She's fine. She has to be. I can't give up yet. For her. I'm doing this all for her. We all are.
≈Chase's P.O.V≈
*2 Hours after Jackie and Tony leave*
"Dudeee I'm hungry. Can we eat yet?" I ask Rory
"Will you stop? I have to clean up the rest of this mess." She says as she vacuums her floor. "Then we can eat."
"Finee." I whine. I go and sit on her bed. I watch her as she continues to clean her room. We've already cleaned the rest of the house. She left her room for last.
≈Alex's P.O.V≈
I can't do this everyday. My family is slowing coming apart. It's tearing us to pieces. We can't go on much longer.
This is what I think everyday when I'm alone in my room. I don't like being alone.
This is why I do as many sports and the toughest classes I can. To keep my mind off the hurt.
I hear my mom cry every night and how my dad consoles her.
Dad he puts himself through to much. He works to hide the pain.
I see how Spencer looks at her pictures in his wallet and room.
I wasn't old enough to remember her. The only thing I have of hers is a blanket. It's not much but it's something of hers that I can have and nobody question it.
I go to get ready for football practice. I'm captain of the varsity team even though I'm a sophomore. I go to my car and get in. Then I proceed to drive to the school and go out on the field to see some of the other guys there already. When I join them we start to warm-up.
*2 hours later*
I'm sweating like a dang pig. Ew. Is what I think as I unstick my shirt from me chest. I make my way towards the showers to wash off. Afterwards I grab my bag and head back home.
I get home to see Elizabeth putting dinner on the table. Steak and shrimps. Mom's favorite. Must've gotten worse after I left. Damn it. I sit down next to Spenc to see him talking to dad about college ball. That's all they talk about nowadays. Well that and Spencer's coronation. Beat me by 4 years dang it. I input a few opinions of my own about some of 'em college teams but not much. My mom just watches us with an amused smile on her face. I know she's wishing Joslyn was here to complete the image in her mind.
After dinner's done we go our separate ways. I have Trig homework to finish anyways. Ugh I hate trig but then again who doesn't?
