Lost In Pain.
Summary:
Lara, a broken teenager who got mixed up with a bad crowd.
She was messed up, an emotional wreck but that didn't stop her love for Axel... Her best friend since the young age of four.
All she wanted him to do was rescue her, rescued her because she was Lost In Pain.
Teaser:
Lara.
I walked along the shore and took a deep breath inhaling the salty air. The view was calming me, the breeze was lifting my heavy heart.
I held the locket in my hand and unlocked it the doll like face revealing itself making me smile yet bringing bitter tears to my eyes. The corners of her pink full lips turned up exposing her teeth, some missing some not. Her eyes beamed, twinkled with innocence and happiness making me remember the day this very picture was taken.
I missed her, I missed her so much.
I bring the sentimental pendant to my lips and give her a small kiss.
The moment was cut short by the repetitive ring of my phone. "Hello." I said softly my throat parched. "Lara, I'm picking you up at six okay?" The voice told, it was Blair, an acquaintance to me but to her I was her 'best friend.' I scoffed at the thought, my only best friend was Axel, no one else will ever be as special to me as he is. "Okay." I say and the call disconnects I let out a breath of annoyance, exhaustion.
I glanced at the sea once again, her face was a mirage, the most beautiful mirage I had ever seen. Closing the locket I clasped the necklace before tucking it under my blouse. I checked the time to see the numbers 4:32 pop up. I panicked knowing my mother was going to worry.
'As if you don't make her worry everyday.' The harsh voice sneered at me from the deep dark blue depths of my mind.
Flinching I stood up and walked, making my way to the estate. Once at the house I opened the door via fingerprint. Dad had took mass security precautions after her death.
"Lara, come to my office." I heard dad's authoritative voice through the intercom and knew he had watched me through the camera's. I walked briskly to his office where he spent most of his days in, wallowing in dark rum and work. Reaching the burgundy door I knocked twice and heard a faint 'come in.' Opening the door and entered, the tension was evident and hung exposed in the air.
"Where were you?" He asks without looking at me, "School." I replied short and curt. I lied, I didn't go in school but I didn't think he would know or care about when school ended. I was lucky being Luca Constantino's daughter meaning they wouldn't tell my father about my whereabouts.
"When did school end?" He asks and I averted my eyes to his phone which had lit up. He wouldn't know this, surely. "Four fiftteen." I answered hoping he would believe me.
"Okay, you can leave now, tell a maid to bring me a strong coffee." Nodding I left the office and found a maid. Telling her my fathers orders I leave for my room.
My phone rang again and I looked at the ID, my eyes lit up and i smiled seeing his name.
"Flower, you coming to the party, you don't have to we stay at mine and watch a movie." He says cautiously, at that moment I knew he remembered what day it was.
"No movie, I need some weed." I say and hear a sigh on the other side.
"Are you sure?" He asks and I yawn, nodding as if he could see me.
"Yes Axe, I'll see you in a bit." I say and drop my body onto the bed.
"Bye Rose." He says and ends the call, I smiled like I did every time he called me rose. It was my middle name and no one except him called me Rose.
It sounded special coming from his mouth and the way he said it made me feel unique, loved.
I scrolled through Twitter and watched a few YouTube videos before realizing the time was quarter past five. I rushed to the bathroom wash my my face and dried it rubbing cream into it.
I threw on a low v neck T-shirt dress and paired it up with thigh high black suede boots. Tying my auburn hair into a ponytail I applied some makeup and sprayed perfume before grabbing a random purse and putting my phone, wallet and pills into it.
To keep myself warm I threw on a brown faux fur coat and made my way downstairs.
From the hallway I saw mum, sat down on the sofa watching some soap operas and holding a bottle of wine probably red, her favorite.
"I'm going out, I probably will stay over at Axel's" I say and she slowly turns her head eyeing me before giving me a small smile.
"You look beautiful, have fun." She compliments and I get be her a tight lipped smile before opening the large mahogany doors and leaving the empty yet massive mansion.
I got out of the gates and Blair pulled up in her car beside me, "Hey girl, ready to get high?" She says and squeals, by the looks of it she already smoked a blunt.
"Of course." I say and sit down, she drives off and I take two pills from my bag drinking it with the unopened can of red bull in the cup holder.
"Girl, so I was shopping in Prada the store down in Central London and guess who I saw?" She says annoyed, she loved to gossip, I did too but most of her gossip was pointless.
"What?" I question and she sighs, "Jason was there and guess who he was with?"
Ah Jason, to him Blair was just a good fuck, but to her he was the guy of her dreams, don't really know why, I mean yes he was quite good looking but he was just a straight up fuckboy.
"Who was he with, Stella?" I guess and she groans. "Even worse, he was with that bitch Sadie."
Sadie?
She was far from a bitch in fact she was one f the sweetest people in the school. She always helped and as a matter of fact she always encourages people to get into doing charity work.
"He was buying her the new season Prada purse, she was refusing but I knew she wanted that, fucking gold digger!" She shouts, I rolled my eyes, Sadie wasn't a materialistic girl.
Jason was probably falling for her, I mean why wouldn't he, she's stunning and her personality was great.
"We're here." Blair says and the car stops. From a compartment she pulls out a bottle of vodka and some shot glasses. My head was spinning but it felt good, that meant the pills were working.
We drank a few shots before leaving the car and making my our way to the party.
My vision was blurry as I walked through the house belonging to someone, I didn't really know or want to, I was just here to get high and drunk.
I wasn't always like this you know, I was a happy child but the perfect princess life I had disappeared as I grew. I searched desperately for Axel as I skimmed my eyes over the crowded room. At the back I saw him with Mia, pretty, smart and experienced and very easy. Im not going to lie it hurt but if she made him happy then what does it have to do with me.
"Lara! Want a drink or weed?" I hear and look to my side my ears perking up at the word weed. The guys name was Bryce. Yeah he was crackhead, but he had free weed. I nodded and said, "Get me a drink and a blunt." I say, he chuckled before leaving to get my drink.
I took my coat off leaving it somewhere, I'd probably find it later tonight if not oh wells.
"Lara you want to dance?" A voice says and I look up to see Matt, I looked back at Axel busy with Mia and nodded taking his clammy hands.
We moved to the music but I couldn't keep my eyes off Axel and Mia, he kissed her making the bile rise up my throat.
