A Bleeding Heart can Conquer every Crutch
Chapter 13
Addison couldn't stop but think about how her phone broke. She couldn't wait until tomorrow to get her new one and find out if she still had Andy's number, so she got up and got her moms car keys and slipped out the door without anyone noticing. She got into her moms car and drove to the nearest apple store, which would be in the mall.
She tried to find a parking spot, but it was difficult, so she just went to the back and parked there. The walk to the doors provided some surprised disgusted, or just curious stares from people, probably because of her hair. She didn't think about that though, she just walked fast to the big apple store.
When she got there, there were only a few people in there, and she walked towards the counter where a nerdy looking guy was typing away on a mac.
"Hi welcome to the Apple store! My name is Matt how can i help you this evening?"
"I dropped my phone on the pavement and i was wondering if it could be fixed or i would need a new one or what" Addison explained while Matt nodded slowly as she talked
"Let me see it" He took the phone from Add "Oh yeah fixing is definitely out of the question. A new phone would cost you $150 dollars and we would be able to dispose of your old one for free"
"Oh god, okay lets do that then. I was curious, i have some important photos and contacts in that phone, and i was curious if we could switch it over somehow?"
"We can try. Would you like a white or black IPhone?"
"White please" He disappeared under the counter and brought a bow with a white IPhone picture on it, opened it, and plugged it into a machine. He plugged her old phone into the other side of it and he pushed a button. Nothing happened, at least that's what it looked like to Addison.
When the apple symbol came up on the new phone the sales guy unplugged it and waited for it to turn on.
"It looks like you got photos and music, but no contacts, and its already connected to your carrier as your old phone. I'm sorry maim"
"Its fine, thank you" She handed him her debit card and he swiped it, and handed her her card, receipt and the box.
"Have a good evening" Matt said
"You too" Addison walked out of the store and unlocked her new phone. She went to pictures and tapped camera roll. There were all the pictures of her and Andy, sometimes just her, sometimes just Andy. s tear began to roll over her cheek that she wont ever talk to him again, but she quickly wiped it away and bit her tongue. dammit i cant cry in public!
She got into her car and allowed the tears to flow. She would never be able to text Andy again! She doesn't have the same number for him to text her! she let the tears flow down her face as she drove home. It was getting dark and she couldn't see well with all of the tears, but she made it home safely.
Addison put the keys on the table and went upstairs and changed into pajama pants and a suicide silence shirt and crawled into her bed and cried some more. She opened her phone and put in her earbuds, swiping through the pictures of her and Andy.
Some of the photos were of a week before she left, and they just kept going back in time as she went farther back in her camera roll. There were a few from the year they met, when they were 13 years old. Andy still had the same face and eyes that he had back then, but his hair was blonde. She locked her phone and turned the music up louder.
She jumped really bad when she felt a small hand tap on her shoulder. It was Tristen, wearing one of her old band shirts.
"Add" He said in his high little kid voice.
"Hey buddy" Addison sat up and invited him to come up onto the bed with her. "Whats up?"
"I heard you crying. Whatsa matter" God he has blue eyes that just reminded me of Andy's
"I can't talk to Andy anymore" The little boy looked confused
"Why not, just call him" He said
"I can't i don't have his number"
"Its in your phone"
"No buddy,i broke my phone today and got a new one."
"Oh"
"You need to go to bed, its late" Add ruffled his hair and lead him by the shoulders back to his room.
"Goodnight"
"Night Add"
Addison walked out of his room and shut the door behind her, and got into her own bed. She tried not to cry as much as possible as she fell asleep.
