2024-10-29 19:42:56They haven't stopped calling me, Aiden and Owen. I haven't had the guts to answer either one of them because of what happened last night. The images are vivid and my heart still hurts from the betrayal.
If only Aiden knew the reason behind me not answering, he'd surely feel the same way, and his reaction would be totally different from mine. Owen hurt me and I don't want to see him right now.
I'm still shocked by his actions, how he could even react in such a way and have no regret right after. It's as if all time I'd expressed or spilled about what that bastard did to me, did not matter to him.
I'm so confused, but not enough to seek answers right now.
A clear mind, that's what I need.
Something to clear my mind off things is what Wesley intended on providing for me. I'd already told him about not feeling up to heading home just yet, and like the friend he is, no further discussion was ne

My heart thuds against my chest when I notice him leaning in again.I push at his chest, my hands resting there ." Where's the bathroom? " I ask."Let me show you." He says, eyes closed." No, I- I'll look for it myself. " I mutter, moving from under his outstretched arm and heading over to the pile of clothes on the bed." I didn't know what you would have preferred, so ------------ "" So you brought the whole closet." I tease him, trying to lighten the mood." Too much?" He comes over to stand next to me, peeking a look at me as he rubs at the back of his neck.I nod, an amused smile coming onto my face.I start looking through the clothes, only to notice a piece of lace. I turn to face him with a raised brow, holding up a piece of lingerie in between my fingers.I swear, that I've never seen so much red on a guy's cheeks, like right now, when he takes note of what's in my hand." Anita gave me th

I silently watch him pace up and down in front of me, his jaw set tight and hands clenched into fists." Wes --------"" Don't, " he holds up his hand to silence me. " I need a minute." He says, continuing on pacing." Just don't get yourself worked up about this."" Don't get myself worked up - how the f*ck am I not suppose to, when someone you trusted, actually hi -------------" he huffs, not being able to finish his sentence.Seeing him like this, all bothered by what he's heard, for some reason plays at my heart. It actually reminds me that I haven't had many people worry about me, nor have I opened up the door for them to show me that they care.So to see him like this, plays with my emotions and that makes me scared a bit.I sigh, taking off the shoes and moving on further on the bed to lay in the center, on my back. There's a moment of silence where I'm staring at the ceiling, trying to get ahold of my emotions and

I hear him enter his bedroom but I don't bother to look his way. I just continue staring at the wall, as I lay on my side." Chloe?" I don't answer.I hear him sigh before the bed dips behind me, telling me that he's joined me yet I refuse to acknowledge him.I'm still very much upset with him, he went to my house without talking to me first, he just had to get himself involved. With the time I've gotten to know Wesley, he's not exactly one to think before he does something when upset, or feeling hyped.I can't even be sure of what he may or may not have done, if he bumped into Owen." What was the purpose of you going there?" I ask." To see Owen and maybe punch him in the face." I tense up." Well, did you?" I ask." No, Your brother knocked some sense into me," my body releases all tension." What? Didn't think I had it

"Will you finally tell me where we are going?" I ask, glancing at him after my curiosity gets the best of me.I mean he pretty much asked me to be his ditching Buddy, the least he owed me is knowledge of where we were headed to." Away from there," he says, not giving me the answer I'm looking for.I decide to not ask any further, but let to him have his way for now. For the rest of the trip we remain in silence, and all I do is watch trees become the only thing, I get to see around us.Entering into a dirt road brings a frown upon my face. We've long gone a little way out of town, this trip reminding me of times Aiden and I ran. When at a distance, a beautiful cabin house comes into view, I steal a glance Wesley's way." I needed to get away," he says, the minute he parks in front of the cabin house, which is beautiful by the way and quite big." Are we trespassing?" I as

" Is it here already? " I ask Anita, when I notice her in the kitchen, ignoring the sound of footsteps chasing after me.She turns around, wiping her hands dry." Well yes -------------" I don't even wait for her to finish, before starting for the door." Chloe, wait!" I hear him call after me, but I ignore him.Right when I reach the door, I open it, only for it to suddenly get slammed shut, I'm soon spun around and caged between the door and a panting Wesley." Wait."" Leave me alone Adams." I say in warning, trying to push him back but his hands on my shoulders, prevent me from doing anything." You're mad at me," he states." And I wonder why?" I arch my brow." Look, I just ----------"" You used me Wesley, you bloody used me!" This time when I push him away, he staggers back in surprise.

" Language, Chloe!" One of them scolds me, and I definetly identify him as the real Owen.Owen literally hates any foul language coming out my mouth, whenever he scolds me, he scolds me like a father would have done.Owen, the real Owen without the cap, steps forward." I'm happy that you are back. We've been so worried about you. I've been ------------"" Who is he?" I ask, gesturing to the stranger that looks identical to him.The stranger, wearing a cap, which reminds me of that night, steps forward, and I don't miss the cut on his lip." He is my twin brother, Davin." Owen answers, not tearing his eyes away from me.Since when?I didn't know that he had a twin brother, one who's violent when drunk, just like Luis." Hello Chloe." Davin says, holding out his hand.I don't shake his hand but look at him.

" Not even a goodmorning or goodbye, you're just going to leave?" He asks, speaking up and breaking the tense silence that had taken over." Morning." I mumble, not meeting his eyes." Chloe, I'd like for you to look at me when we are talking."No, that's one thing I can't do right now. I'm embarassed about everything right now.He sighs when I don't look at him." Chloe." He steps forward and that's when my head snaps to him.Before either one of us can say anything, we hear footsteps come downstairs." I have to go." I say, quickly getting out of the house before both of them say anything.I sigh and head down the porch steps, to meet Wesley, who stands leaned by his car." Morning." I say, heading over to get into the passenger seat." Morning." He calls over his shoulder.When we both

" You aren't ready yet?" Aiden's voice knocks me out of my thoughts.I glance away from the window and turn to him. " No, I uh........" I pause when I notice him glance down to my exposed arms." I won't do it again, you know." I mumble, walking over to my bed to take my gown, so as to cover up.He sighs, earning my eyes." I don't like the fact that you did it in the first place." He mentions." Will it make it all better if I tell you that it was my first time doing it?""Knowing that it was the last time, eases me." He says, not tearing his eyes away from my arms, even though I have covered them." Aiden, they will disappear soon." I say, mentioning the marks." I know that." Somehow he looks like he doesn't believe his own words." What's the problem, Aiden?" I ask through a sigh." You did it, that's

" So, how do we do this?" I ask, turning around to face Aiden.I'm doing all I can to not let the tears fall." You know that this is not exactly goodbye."" It's not the same Aiden, and you know it....."He sighs, turning away from me and taking a seat at the edge of my bed. I join him after some time and we sit in silence for a few minutes." You really are pushing me to kick you out faster."" Wow, someone's eager to get rid of me." I say sarcastically." Yeah, I am, because it'll be much easier to watch you walk away."" Now, you're the one pushing me to run away." I say, looking away from him.I can feel my tears pushing to come out.He sighs. " So, how long will we keep doing this?""Until you tell me that you don't want me to go."" I want you to go."

" I love you." I say to a sleeping Wesley." You finally said it."Or not." You messed up my moment, Adams." I complain, flicking his nose.His eyes flutter open and I smile at him. I feel his hand reach under the covers to touch my waist." No, You cheated, you knew that I wanted to be awake when you finally said it."" I love you." He blinks at me.I see him lean close and I meet him halfway, to connect our lips. A small moan slips out when he lightly squeezes on my waist.I sigh in contentment, when he breaks the kiss and starts peppering kisses on my face. " My bluebear." He says against my forehead.I place my hand on his chest, right where his heart beats. He leans back to look at me, and we find ourselves simply staring at each other." So, nervous about today?" I ask.Tod

" Thank you." I hear Owen say, as he walks the doctor out.I touch on my bandaged middle, sighing in relief that it's not as painful anymore. When the doctor had touched and pressed the wound, the tingling was replaced by a shot of pain.Thankfully, he told us that I just need to take a better look after myself and not push too hard. I should not push too hard to fully recover, I should allow everything to take natural cause.I think Owen must be more relieved, when the doctor had said we didn't need to go to the hospital. I'm pretty sure that he has no desire to ever visit the hospital again. Not that I did.One of the things that the doctor was impressed by, was how well I've been doing, in terms of my walking pace and that I'm functioning okay, that the gunshot, didn't do any permanent damage.I get up off the couch, pulling down my shirt and heading to the kitchen. I take out a can of

Something soft touches my forehead, surely waking me up. I feel someone get in under the covers and wrap an arm around me, pulling me close. Knowing that it's no one else but Wesley, my response to him is snuggling into his chest." I thought I was being careful to not wake you up." He whispers above my head.I sigh, opening my eyes and tilting my head back, so I look up at him." I was wondering why you haven't snuck into my room yet, after....." I trail off, leaving the rest to hang in the air." I was waiting for the right moment."" What made today the right time?"" I don't know, maybe because I missed you a whole lot, and I just needed to be near you tonight."I reach out my hand to touch his face, letting my thumb to gently rub his skin. We spend some time just staring at each other, letting ourselves to get lost into each other's eyes.

~ Flashback~' I think she's warming up to me being her father.' I hear Owen say.I know that they think I'm still asleep, but I've long woken up now.' You've been waiting for the day she calls you dad.' Aiden says.'Yeah, but I know that I need to be patient, and wait for her to get comfortable around me again.''Owen, she knows that she has no reason to be uncomfortable around you. She's just getting used to the idea of being your daughter, don't ever mistake this for her being uncomfortable. I know my sister, and she'll come around. " ' Maybe I should give her some space.' Owen says after a while.' Owen ------------ ''She needs to let this sink in, without me sticking around. She

I shift on the bed, trying to sit up and do something, because I don't like the effect, that the silence seems to have on us. After what I said, Aiden hasn't been able to respond.He knows that what I said, is the truth.As I move, he is there to help me until I sit up, now being in eye level with him." I'm a ----------"" It was self defense." He cuts me off." He might have done the worst kind of things to us, but, it doesn't change the fact that I killed him. I killed someone's son."" It was self defence, Chloe! - He was ready to kill you, he'd been trying to do this for a long time and at the last moment....." He cuts himself short, rising to his feet and turning his back on me.I watch him run his fingers through his hair, releasing a sigh. " At the last moment, you put an end to it all. "My eyes drop to my lap when he turns around to face me. " You're a survivor, Chloe, that's why you are still

The light is shining so bright, almost blinding my eyes. I blink a couple of times until I can adjust to it. When I become familiar to the room, I recognize my surroundings and conclude, that I am in the hospital.Moving one of my arms because they feel a little numb right now, I frown when something restrains me. I glance down to my hand and feel my heart stop for a moment, when I realize that I'm actually handcuffed to the bed.What in the world?Why am I handcuffed?The door opens and my eyes snap to the person who enters. Two suspicious looking men, in leather jackets enter, and I feel very unsafe, just by being alone with them." Miss James, good day." One of the men speaks, he's tall with sandy blonde hair.I don't respond, but just look at them.I don't know who these men are, and they could very well be, Luis's friends.

Something is touching my hair and I've gone in and out of consciousness, fighting my way through waking up. I don't know how long I've gone through the same pattern, but one thing I know, is that I need to stay awake." Aah, look who's awake." I hear his voice.My body is exhausted and it feels heavy, I feel like I can't move because of where I've been shot. I know that this monster shot me.I feel numb almost, but I do all I can to resist letting myself fall unconscious again." I was getting bored here, good thing you woke up. Damn, you're stronger than I thought, you're still holding on." He chuckles.I want to punch him hard right now, so bad.I hear him shift, and by the squeaking sound, I know that he has me laid onto a bed. When he sits infront of me, I feel disgusted just by looking into his eyes." You're prettier than I remember, but I knew

My phone slips from my hand and drops to the floor. I'm too stunned and my feet are stuck in place.Heads whip in my direction and Aiden's eyes are the first I see, widening in shock. Chairs scrape at once, as they all rise to their feet, now facing me." Chloe?" I snap out of it and I stagger back, as my heart beats hard against my chest." Chloe, listen -----------"" S-stay away from me." I stutter, holding up my shaky hands in warning."
