6: Mistakes

I went down the stairs but I paused when I heard Aunt Talone's voice.

"Have you been paying attention to Piper?"
"And why will I do that?" My mum yelled.
"She's your daughter!" Aunt Talone yelled back.
"She ruined my life"
"No. You conceived her. You lost your virginity on purpose. You were head over heels for bill. You lost it to him! Because for all you cared, he had money, and now you have money so what happens to the child?"
"Piper was a mistake."

Mistake Mistake Mistake.

That was all that rang in my head.

I turned to the stairs, going to my room.

I need to clean myself up.

°°°°°
Jay turned up at the park like I'd told him too.
"Why did you leave?" I yelled.
"Sorry?" He asked.
I huffed
"Why did you leave??" I asked again rage filling me.
"You left!"
"So our relationship meant nothing to you?" I asked again.
"Yes!" He yelled. "And you know what Piper? It was a mistake. Us. A big mistake,"

Mistake Mistake Mistake

I grabbed him by the colar. I threw him on the slide breaking it.
"Nothing I do is a mistake! Maybe you are the Mistake!! Never in your stupid fucked up life tell me what I devoted my time to is a mistake."

°°°°
I was walking slowly, tears springing in my eyes.
"I was a mistake." I said sadly. Running to the bridge and sitting on the floor.

I don't know what happened, but I sat on the floor, my eyes blood shot, and I fell into a deep slumber.

"Piper!"

I jerked awake from my sleep meeting the eyes of my best friend.
"Pete?"
"Oh my, Piper where have you been?"
I cleaned my tears as I tried to stand.
"Thank you for coming to find me," I whispered as he took my hands.
"It's okay Piper. I injured Jayden, and Daya may or may not have taken down crystal, it's just your mum left, she wasn't even bothered. But hey, I love you so much Piper. You have always been there for me, I'm just returning a favor,"

I gave him a weak smile.

"Let's go have fun. Together. We'll meet the others in 2 hours,"

I wiggled my eyebrows at him.
"My charms have finally gotten to you," I said with a sly smile.
"What do you want Piper?"
"Piggyback ride?"

••••

  I walked home, my hands feeling warm in Pete's.
"You know," I said breaking our silence
"I want to see a therapist. I need to learn to forgive myself. I'm tired of feeling miserable. I want to be me again."

He smiled at me, his grin brighter than the
sun.

"You'll paint?"

"I'll paint, I'll dance, I'll learn soccer, join the cheerleading team, I'll be happy, because I finally understand. I don't need my mother to love me. I don't need jay. I just need to love me."

He nodded.
"We all love you pipes. If Jay doesn't, it's his loss."

I smiled, hugging him again.

I love me.

'For all the times I went and fucked it up
I wonder when I love me is enough'
