Black Keys (A Nick Jonas Love Story) - Chapter 1

*Sam's P.O.V.*

I came home from school and walked into my backyard. Before I entered the back door I gazed at the neighbour's For Sale sign posted on their lawn. I guess it was foolish of me to think that a divorced couple would still want to live in the same house. I just turned my head away from the depressing sight and unlocked the door.

The house was dark and not a single light was on to welcome me home. I was pretty well used to this by now, but for some reason every time I opened the door after school; I'd hope to see someone, anyone there to greet me. But instead I just turn on the living room lights which at least make the house look somewhat cared for and walk into my room dropping my backpack on the floor. I turn off my iPod - the only sound that was filling the silence - and place it on my desk. I looked around myself and the sight filled me with only one feeling... numb.

I looked over at my bookshelf trying to pull my eyes away from its teasing contents. Every day I tell myself not to do it, but every day I still end up grabbing the spine of my old photo album and running my fingers over each and every page. I guess I just need something to remind me of how wonderful my life used to be; what happiness used to feel like. I needed some sort of evidence to prove that I once was happy, that my life used to have purpose. But as I look over the pictures, it always brings me tears remembering back to those days, which is why I know I shouldnt keep looking back on the past. However, I always find myself breaking that rule.

I opened the album and ran my eyes over every faded picture: Nick, Kevin, Joe and I at five years old running around outside, my thirteenth birthday with their arms wrapped around me while I held the guitar case that overwhelmed my tiny little body. We all smiled into the picture and you could plainly see the pure joy on my face.

Then I picked up the CD case sitting next to me.

What happened to the boys I once knew? I looked at the three faces in front of me. I didnt know who those boys were. Well, I suppose they aren't boys anymore... they're young men. I stared at their faces recognizing each one of them but for some reason the boys I once knew were hidden deep inside them; almost impossible to see. And I continue to ask myself why. Why had I been left here to lead such a miserable life? What had I done to deserve this? Even as I constantly ask myself these questions... I am still yet to find an answer. I've resorted to believing that this was just the way the cards were dealt for me.

I traced my finger around the outline of each one of their faces and along the edge of the album. I could feel the tears burning in my eyes readying themselves to run down my face as I ran my thumb over the title Lines, Vines and Trying Times.

I quickly wipe away the tears, close the photo album, the CD case and set them both aside. I stand up, put on my coat, and then I open the door and step back outside taking a deep breath as I lock it behind me.

I could hear the sound of my footsteps on the concrete sidewalk as I walked down the lifeless street. Looking around me all I could see were large, fancy houses that looked exactly the same. I took in a deep breath of air and with it came the scent of the season; the dry air indicating cracked skin on my hands and flyaway hair... winter. The sky above was filled with grey, but I've noticed how every day seems to be grey lately; a type of grey that numbs my body every time I look up to see it. My foot left the curb as I walked out onto the road making sure to take my time; watching as each foot landed one in front of the other trying my hardest not to make a single sound. Cold air billowed out of my mouth like a cloud of smoke as I looked around myself again taking in the sky, the silence, and the symmetrical houses surrounding me.

I closed my eyes and thats when I heard it. I looked over my left shoulder far down the street and before another thought could pass through my mind; bright lights blinded me. I took in a quick breath and in one swift moment...

Numb.
